The site’s finally back up so I’ve been able to upload my past couple of posts from Blogger. I’m thinking of finally switching over to Movable Type, but that would mean another switch in webhosts since M6 doesn’t support PHP. Decisions, decisions. I just uploaded some pics from my Ninong Gerry’s visit here. The visit […]

Damn, my site is down! M6 tech support says it’s because of a worm on the server that exposes a security hole on SQL server…. but my site doesn’t use that db anyway, so why the hell is mine affected? Anyway, I’ll still keep on blogging and publish them once my site’s back online. Just […]

“I don’t care if Monday’s blue Tuesday’s grey and Wednesday too Thursday I don’t care about you ‘Cause Friday I’m in love” from “Friday I’m In Love” by The Cure Fridays are always fun days, but this Friday was especially good. After almost two months of being unemployed, I’ve received 3 offers from different companies […]

Can lightning strike twice? The company which I was supposed to start working for has been sold by their parent company (click here for details). How will this affect me?

I’ve got a new toy to play with tonight (well, it’s not technically mine).

Surprisingly, that task has so far been […]

Things are starting to move on the job-hunting front… I don’t want to say anything specific yet though (so as not to jinx it), but it seems like there’s finally some light at the end of the tunnel. If things go as currently planned, I’ll be working again in the next couple of weeks (maybe […]

I’m not really in the mood to do any blogging tonight – I’m still recovering from the great weekend we had. I just want to say though that one of the best things about having a house are the great friends that come over to visit. Check out some pictures from the weekend here.

Another week, still no job… but as they say, good things come to those who wait. Let’s just hope that I don’t have to wait much longer. I finally have at least some form of income coming in though – yep, I finally swallowed my pride and started begging on the street. Okay, okay… I […]

Yay! Our lawn is finally starting to show more grass and less weeds! The turfbuilder we put in is kicking in. Maybe in a few more days, the weeds will finally be gone. Our lawn was in extremely neglected shape when we first moved in. Aileen and I had no clue what to do with […]
