Things that must be done pre-road trip, in no particular order.
And maybe, if I’m lucky, I’ll get around to actually doing said things. Toss laundry in the machine Go through stuff I haven’t unpacked yet from the trip to the parentals’ Unpack anything I might need, and pack it with the road trip stuff Wash anything I forgot I didn’t … Read the rest

Hockey Night in Canada, I shall miss you.
Though the CBC hasn’t officially announced that’s one of the things on the chopping block, they did pretty much cut out 800 or so jobs in the last couple days. And now, much to my relief, the government which I have so often mocked has made it rather abundantly clear … Read the rest

Now this is an interesting perspective on technology.
For those of you who have issues with typing on your standard, more traditional keyboards, seems manufacturers are finally starting to listen. There’s a large number of new keyboard designs being tossed about, and some of them seem quite… well, unusual. Of course, I have absolutely no clue how … Read the rest

At the end of the day, Greyhound only mildly pisses me off.
After Wednesday’s rather lengthy song and dance that got me absofuckinglutely nowhere that would be considered anywhere near productive, I pretty much prepared myself this morning for an impressive round or two of fisticuffs over the whole bus ticket incident. But when I got to the station, for the first … Read the rest

My one and only bief with Greyhound. Bitching and moaning ahead.
Surprisingly enough, it’s not to do with accessibility. It may or may not have anything to do specificly with customer service. But it’s largely to do with their technological issues, of which they have a shitload. One that’s been hanging around on the long term since at the very least … Read the rest

Things I learned that manage to surprise me.
In list format, because lazy is me. Microsoft can, in fact, make a program that doesn’t die horribly when you try to add something extra to it. They just don’t do it very often. Clearly, some people’s definition of accessibility is far different from mine. This is why we have … Read the rest

I’ve graduated!
Well, sort of. Y’see, I’m slowly beginning my exit from the coughy mchackencough school of hell, and instead I’ve enrolled in sniffle mcsneezy university. What 2 days ago was a semi-irritating chest thing is apparently morphing into a wicked evil head cold of d00m. Same thing happened with the motherling, … Read the rest

uuuuuggggg, motherling made me siiiiiick.
Energy is at a premium right now, so this will be a short one. The interview went relatively well. They’d already filled one of the positions they were hiring for (figures it’d be the one that pays more), but I was able to stick my name on the list for … Read the rest

Either I am good, or I am still unemployed.
I should know within the week…ish, if all goes according to plan. I applied for a position advertised by Adecco, another local temp agency in these here parts, at about the end of last week. I’ve been in almost constant contact with them since Monday about that and one … Read the rest

Outings and lazyness abound.
After an earlier than expected wake-up call by a couple of extremely hyper dogs (7:00 AM is not the time to be climbing on the unemployed, just FYI), mom and I had to do a bit of running around. We took one of said dogs, he who shall continue to … Read the rest
