I am starting to wonder if there is much point maintaining my wordpress blog. I liked the idea of a blog space that I owned completely, so long as I could share the contents with livejournal, but I am not sure I am really getting anything out of it, and it’s just getting me occasional […]
Phew!
So I checked. About 9-10 km to work.
After work, I then biked downtown to pick up the supplies for doing outreach tomorrow. Kanata to 251 Bank…about 23 km. Then back home, by process of elimination….roughly 13-14 km

The internet is alive at my new place. I am connected. Apparently a cable hookup can be threaded up through the heating ducts. I have my computer in one of the bedrooms, with a nicely sized window behind it, through which I can see a nice large tree with branches swaying gently. I just MUST […]
