Last night John downloaded iTunes 7 for his Mac (and I succumbed this morning, after much peer pressure). I watched as he highlighted over 800 albums and in one click was able to start the ‘get album art’ process. There’s a feature that lets you flip through your albums as though you’re sitting in front [...]

Last night we caught Big Brother and Rockstar at Laura‘s house-sitting-house while playing Trivial Pursuit, 90s Edition. I can’t believe John didn’t get the questions about the Melissa and Michaelangelo virii and he can’t believe I got the Henry Kissenger question right. We stayed there way too late then walked home around midnight from Yaletown [...]

John told me yesterday that Apple was going to have some fancy swanky announcements today. He’s just given me the scoop, saying “that’s some hot sh*t” and being altogether way too excited, but with good reason. Tiny, 1.62 inch iPod shuffles and multi-coloured 8gb Nanos (for starters) [apple]. I’m sure he’ll be posting a big [...]

In line with such silly geeky posts as those verification codes you can never read [604] and battle of the fonts [604] I find myself compelled to comment about something I was reading on RantVancouver yesterday. In the comment section of one of the rants, someone put “IAWTP”. Buh? I fear I may be out [...]

After working last night, sitting alone in the office at my desk, tempted to stick tissues up my nose because I was too busy to be bothered to blow it any longer, I called in sick. John is getting a little run down as well. It’s worse for anything to happen to him since his [...]

My mom just woke me up. She was just reading the Metro on her skytrain trip into downtown and saw a wee little article about her daughter. Oh my. It seems I’ve become I’m somewhat of a local ‘blogebrity’. Holy freakin crap, how did that happen? There is a certain charm to reading about the [...]

I read something today on Beyond Robson that didn’t particularly inspire this post but it prompted me to write it. It picked at a sore spot that I’ve been avoiding for a while now, although it’s always been there, just waiting to erupt into a blog post. This edition of ‘is anyone here actually FROM [...]

I’ve been checking the concert listings in Vancouver lately and they seem kinda dull – although there are a few gems we’re going to check out later this month [604]. It seems like I completely missed out on some GREAT shows when I was living in Boston. I’ve only been to the Middle East once [...]
