Since I last wrote, dear reader, I did what some thought impossible: I deleted my Facebook account. I can hear the startled gasps from here, but I can assure you it was painless, and quite liberating. It’s been something I’ve been thinking about for a few years now, and I had been slowly moving my … Continue reading »

What happens when the caffeine hit is delayed…
You didn’t think you’d be getting rid of me that easily, did you? That I’d pop up with another random post and disappear into the ether? No, no…. not this time. It’s not going to take me another year and a half to get to 400. Besides. I have some things to show off. First … Continue reading »
Notes on a year…
2010 has been a turbulent year. Well, one of changes anyway. Drastic changes. It’s been a year when I’ve really had to find out who I am and what I’m really like. I’m happy to say that I’m not actually that bad. Possibly a tad too serious at times and prone to caution, but those … Continue reading »
Someday I’ll be Saturday Night.
What a week. I managed to catch one of those dreaded bugs you get on flights anywhere over 3 hours long. Talk about knock you out for the count. I haven’t felt this bad in a long, long time. So nothing’s been done. Well, nothing but the test knitting and some cobblestone. I am told … Continue reading »
Time to get serious…
…with my time and project management. Having had far too much of a break since Christmas, I’ve had a good look at what I’m supposed to be doing and when, and frankly, dear reader, I have many miles to go. So I’ve tried to be realistic. The Ravelympics is just not going to happen. I’ve … Continue reading »
Happy New Year!
I can’t say my 2010 went off with a bang – unless my 4-way conflict in a Civ IV campaign is a valid type of “bang” – but it was nice and relaxed, followed by going to bed when the sun came up (just… one… more… turn…), and then getting up to have a nice … Continue reading »
You know…
It’s sunny here today. There’s a cat sitting peacefully on my lap (this is the good cat, and antihistamines are great!) The transcription is going well. The Biblatex-MLA package has just been updated, so it does EVERYTHING I’ve been having issues with in the citing of references and bibliography of my thesis. I have 20 … Continue reading »
On the ning nang nong…
Where the cows go bong, and the monkeys all say Boo! I’m sorry, I’ve been teaching youth librarians the joys of Ning as a safe and highly customisable alternative to Facebook over the past few months. I was tinkering around with the platform yesterday as a result of a query from one of my former … Continue reading »
Hyperconnectivity…
I’ve got 4 rows left on my last solidarity square to send back to Corinne. Excellent. I”ll be good and not knit anything more today. My fly-in/fly-out visit to Sydney is confirmed for the Metadata, it looks like I’ll be breaking out the Social Networking Sites for Librarians in Brissie next month after all. This … Continue reading »
