Zoo Pictures
I also managed to throw up and caption the trip to the Greater Vancouver Zoo that I took the other day with Firefly and her friend WikkedIrishGirl from Edmonton.
Lan Party
Finally got around to holding the “alan has had a big apartment for almost a year now isn’t it time to have a lan party” lan party. Started the festivities around 9am (or was supposed to anyway) and people finally showed up around 10, which was good, because 9 is far too early in the
Random Bitching
I’m sick. Bleah. I’m not sure if it’s allergies, but I woke up at 2:30am last night after getting to bed at a nice early 11pm with a lovely fit of sneezing and wheezing. Got up, had a big glass of orange juice. Woke up late, was slower than normal getting up and about and
Meeting new People on the Net
Funny how things work. Yesterday I surfed to a random site which turned out to be a windows user’s blog (no offense 🙂 Through that site I found a bunch more interesting places including the .NET desktop screenshot gallery (from ISerializable) and found rwlodarc through his desktop. Another was Sam via a random click on

Delmar and Oggs
I’ve gotta say, I’m impressed with my buddy Engel‘s weblog. Good reading and interesting stuff. Keep up the good work! On the subject of ogg vs mp3, I guess I’m a cool geek because when I came home last night at 11:30 last night the first thing I did was rip the new (old) CDs

Engel’s got a Home
Looks like Engel got a nifty-keen weblog up called daggurl. I have no idea what “daggurl” means, but it’s cool to see another friend in the weblog world, so I can keep an eye on him. wave

Soccer and Rain
Yay! Finally a bit of rain to put the smack down on that damn pollen that’s been killing me lately. It spat a bit over night, and then some more on the way into work. Hopefully things will be cool for the LAN party next weekend. Played soccer again last night. There were less people,
Ximian Desktop 2
Yesterday at work I installed the Ximian Desktop version 2. Aside from a 300 meg download, which crapped out right at the end (but seemed to manage to still recover) it went very nicely. Read below for more.
Hellishly Hot Weekend
Wow, I want the rain back. I love the sun, but man, the last couple of days were just killer. The apartment has sucky circulation (windows only on one side), so I spent 2x$69.99 for a couple of window fans to replace the ones that we had (that came with the apartment from Iambe and
