The most recent walk was win but first, Walks 2009.002. On Wednesday, we circuited Wal-Mart, which was a less than stellar experience but I had good company, we kept a good pace, and I picked up a few things we were low on afterward. I wouldn’t rule out Wal-Mart for future walks though. There’s always […]
In Which She Learns More Wiki Markup
I’ve been working on beefing up wiki entries on all things Jackal, since I have been stewing on numerous points that really need to be written down somewhere that is not loose bits of paper or forgotten GoogleDocs. I got stuck when trying to frame out a timeline, so I let it be for the […]
Power of Repetition
In writing a recent post over at Puddles, I realized that I have a tendency to use repetition quite a bit. In the aforementioned post, I ended a few of the paragraphs with a refrain. It’s not the same every time but it is structured in a specific way: [sentence]. [1-2 words]. [single word]. If […]
I went for a walk yesterday, in mid-50 temperatures and an overcast sky. Tim and I parked and hiked along the water’s edge at Griffy Lake. On the way, we saw a woman kayaking with an adorable beagle. Both human and canine looked rather pleased with the arrangement (biped laboring, beagle relaxing). This was moment […]
Great Big Music
Meant to post about the Great Big Sea concert a week ago but er, life. To sum up: awesome. The boys were well-rested and were just starting to tour again. The music was excellent but the balance was bad at certain points. Sean was drowned out a few times. From our vantage point, Bob was […]

I cant haz embed
That embedded GBS video in my previous post didn’t show up in the RSS feed (or at least in GoogleReader). Curious. Sorry lovelies. I guess you’ll just have to go to the Puddles post to see “Donkey Riding.”

Words that We Couldn’t Say
My Life in iTunes RULES: Put your iTunes, Windows Media Player, device, etc. on shuffle. For each question, press the ‘Next’ button to get your answer. You must write that song name down no matter how silly it sounds. Share. If someone says, ‘Are you okay?” you say: “The Inner Light” by Jerry Goldsmith from […]
Your Moment of WTF
