Despite no grand plans of getting pleasantly inebriated tonight, 2007 was actually a very eventful year. I finally finished up my undergrad in May; something that was long overdue. After, I enjoyed some free time in Vancouver’s fantastic summer (and then Fall), and I just recently started making a much needed dollar. (I got Jesse… Continue reading 2007 in Brief

Huge Piece of Crap
At my current job, my computer is a laptop which sits in a docking station is connected to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. If I wanted, I could take the laptop home with me. That would be great, but I have no desire to use this PC outside of work for a few reasons:… Continue reading Huge Piece of Crap
Happy Holidays 2007
I had a good Christmas. 🙂 Hung out with family (and a couple students), ate copious amounts of turkey and sweets, and drank a pleasant variety of cocktails. I got a few interesting gifts, including: a larger tripod (used when taking the photo of the tree, above), Holey Soles (wearing and loving them now), and… Continue reading Happy Holidays 2007
Brad Sucks
But actually, he really, really doesn’t. I’ve been using the alarm clock plugin for Rhythmbox to wake up, recently. But I had it set to play on my “Added Today” automatic playlist…. Can you guess the problem with that? … By the time I was supposed to get up, my playlist was empty! Doh! >.<

When Eric, our current Korean student, was playing… Continue reading Something Terrible
Rhythmbox Jump-to-playing Plugin
This plugin will display the View : Jump to Playing Song link as a button in the toolbar and as link in the Browser’s context menu. This is about as simple as a plugin could be (which is partly why I wrote it), but I’ve actually found it quite useful. Maybe you will too. Download… Continue reading Rhythmbox Jump-to-playing Plugin
There’s an arsonist in my library and it’s me
While tinkering with RB svn (11.3), I thought it not necessary to make a backup of my music library. I can see you already shaking your head. Anyway, filed a bug yesterday, and it’s already been resolved. As for my music library, I happened to have an automatically created backup from when I opened the… Continue reading There’s an arsonist in my library and it’s me
Snow!
This year is supposedly going to be the coldest we’ve had in 15 years! I guess that’s good news for the mountains! Yesterday we had a bit of snow. I took my sister’s dog for a walk while trying to take evening pictures. Today, I woke up bright and early at 7am, and we had… Continue reading Snow!
