Yellow Fellow

Congrats to Justin on attaining his yellow belt in taekwondo!!!

I'm so proud of you, little dude! Especially for breaking the board on your first kick! Way to go, my son!

Season End Soccer Jamboree

The end of soccer season finally arrived. Other than the big dump of snow in December, the weather wasn't too bad this season. I can only remember a few days spent under an umbrella. Saturday was frigid, though, with an icy wind chilling the spectators to the bone. Poor Brooks. The Storms won their final game 4-1 and Justin nearly scored, bless his heart.

Playground At Emily Carr School

The sun came out and despite a chill in the air we played for 2 solid hours on Sunday afternoon...no crying, no fighting, no pouting...it was a great day!

Back Online!

The new computer is finally up and running. Had a false start with the 24" monitor but it is now working fine. Going from that tiny little 15" monitor to 24" is just mind blowing! It seems gigantic! So far Vista hasn't been nearly as bad as I was expecting it to be. The new speakers I got are super mega rockin' cool as well.

Now...if I can get my wireless router working I'll be away to the races...

New Computer!

Our 5 year old computer has been struggling and today our shiny new replacement has arrived! It has 1 terabyte (1,000 gigabytes) of hard drive space, compared to the teeny 80 gigabytes on our old computer. And we're upgrading from a wee-little 15-inch monitor to a 24-inch. It also has a blu-ray disc player/reader/burner. The only downside is that it comes with Vista, and I'm less than thrilled about that.

Anyway, if you don't see any posts or e-mails from me for awhile, it is likely because I'm having technical problems!

Better Blogs Than I

My favourite non-music blog has got to be "Stuff White People Like". #11, Asian Girls, is a hilarious example of why I love it so much http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/01/20/11-asian-girls/.

#6, Organic Food, http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/01/19/6-organic-food/ is also so true.
