Hey Mom, I’m a Star!

Posted on February 27, 2012 by alan

Long long time no type. Lately I’ve been blogging a bit on my photography site and naval gazing on twitter and mucking around a bit on Google+. Lately the one interesting thing is I’ve somehow managed to get featured in two videos. Yup, you can see my ugly mug by going to… http://www.scorpionsoft.com/levelplatforms and watching …

Where I’ve Been Lately

Posted on September 14, 2011 by alan

Yea, yea, dead blog that has only 3 readers.   Not completely dead, I’ve been feeling more guilty as time goes on and I don’t update, or at least point to where I am actually doing stuff.  Basically now that I’ve been working at Left of the Dot and my commute went down by about …

Portrait and Teeth, etc.

Posted on February 25, 2011 by alan

Been doing a lot of “Strobist” stuff lately, the shot to the right is of the beautiful Terra-Jean whom I had the honor of shooting a couple of weekends ago at a meetup.com gathering of photographers, led by Chris Pike. Great time was had and I got some great shots if you hit that image’s …

Still Fully Toothed

Posted on October 3, 2010 by alan

I had a dentist appointment last week that was supposed to be a tooth extraction for a tooth that’s been bothering me for a while, actually not the tooth but the gum above it.  Dentist tried a few things, and eventually said the tooth had to come out, unfortunately.  I got two choices, either a …

My Tale of Trying To Get an iPhone 4

Posted on July 30, 2010 by alan

Short version: got up early, didn’t get one, bummed. Here’s the long version though. I’ve wanted an iPhone 4 for a while, accuse me of being a fanboy or silly or whatever, but I have. My current iPhone is two generations old now, and is starting to feel like it, and with the official Canadian …

Someone Is Out To Get Me (A Tale of Car and Cat)

Posted on July 19, 2010 by alan

It’s like the outside gods don’t want me to leave the house, or have fun, or have any money…. First of all, Saturday was a family barbeque, which was great, a full day of some productivity at home, then family, a huge delicious salmon, homemade bread (thanks dad!), cheese, etc. Great all around. Then came …

Mice Are In the Air, It Must Be Spring

Posted on April 25, 2010 by alan

1am – Go to sleep after coming back from Shaun’s House. 5:00am – Woken up by odd noises that I hope aren’t a mouse being brought into the house. 5:21am – Realize that I can’t pretend it’s not a mouse anymore, and get up, catch the mouse, take it out to the front garden, and …

New Year, New Post

Posted on January 4, 2010 by alan

Welcome to 2010. Wee…. should try to post here more than once every few months, but really nothing that interesting has happened lately. Life seems to be mostly stagnating sadly, so hopefully I’ll be able to do something about that in the coming weeks and months. Christmas and new years was great though… a week …

Fun In The Night In A Housecoat

Posted on December 15, 2009 by alan

1am is not the time any sane person should be awake. Nor is it the time that any sane person should be wandering around in the freezing ice-rain in a bathrobe. Nor even more so is it the time that you should be blogging about why. So Firefly got some work lined up with the …
