Tidbits

  • Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…

  • A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles.  I wanna play!

  • Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places.  2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.

  • A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…

  • An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies.  I smell a lawsuit.

  • Will trade beer for Crumpler bags.  Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

September Randomness

September 21, 2007 | Activities |

I can’t really recall what happened in September except that it’s suddenly over.  I think I’ve mostly been super busy at work.  Spent like one week using the elliptical, and then stopped cause Nelson’s back and he won’t go upstairs to play the wii anymore cause our wireless router…

Victoria Weekend 2007

May 24, 2007 | Activities, Events |

I’ll say I made good use of the first long weekend of the summer.  Sure, I didn’t travel anywhere far, but it was an active and fun weekend nonetheless.
