Merry Xmas

20111224-232703.jpg

This ol’ blog deserves way more attention from me, but with so much that is blogworthy happening, there’s just no time to write it down. Which is a shame, because that’s why I started it back in 2001. Maybe I will make a better habit of it in the new year? I know I want to.

Anyway, Marjorie and I are Xmassing in Vancouver with the Phillips clan, and then to the island on Boxing Day with the Taverners Senior. Lots to post about. There’s often some opportunity for quiet introspection out in Qualicum Beach. Stay tuned?

Merry Xmas to all. And thank you for checking in. I’m thinking of you, too.

Dead Meat w/ Moustache

Movember

As a sign of how rarely I post, and I suppose of how tiny my readership is now (hi Davin!  hi Mom!) I have been participating in Movember since, well, Movember 1st, and I’m only getting around to posting something about it now – Movember 25th.  Happy Thanksgiving, Americaland!  Happy Black Friday!

Dead Meat w/ Moustache

Movember is all about men’s health issues.  To put it simply, most guys, being guys, would put off going to a doctor until the tumor is riding sidesaddle.  We need help not just in spreading awareness that we do, in fact, have health issues, but a little self-awareness – the occasional check up is no bad thing.  A little camaraderie and social encouragement is just what the doctor ordered.

If you’d like to learn more, check out the info page here.  Please consider helping out my Movember fund raising effort – here’s where you do that.  On behalf of your junk, thank you.

the dust is not settling

Work-wise, I just wrapped the 4th shoot in three weeks, the app graphics are nearly done, and we have at least one new client.  There have been no real days off since M & I got back from our gorgeous (and top-speed) honeymoon in Italy.  This, on top of a neighbourhood completely over run with not just Occupy Wall Street and their omnipresent flock of New York’s Finest, but also a legion of trucks, show cars, tents and crew for the next Batman movie.  Spoiler: something big goes down on Wall Street.  Possibly several somethings.  And it snowed yesterday.  A lot.  Summer, I suspect, has left the building.

Anyway, I have yet to sit in one place long enough to tackle any wedding or honeymoon pictures.  We’re only just able to get back to the thank you cards tonight!  Speaking of which, back to it I go.  Hopefully I’ll get some pics done this week?
