I dislike resolutions because in the wrong mindset they can feel like impossible obstacles to overcome. There are a lot of standing jokes/memes out there surrounding impending resolution failures. Nonetheless it is good to set goals as long as they are realistic. So here are mine. 1) Post 3x a week on average. I loved…
Month: December 2014
Pronouns
This post was originally started about 10 months ago – I found it deep in my “drafts” list (it is actually the oldest draft I have left). I sometimes resurrect these posts under my “Draft Necro” series because hey, not all posts deserve to rot away in draft folder hell. I typically preamble them in…
Holidays! (Also a test)
I can’t access my site since the WordPress update but am attempting to post via my mobile device. Happy Holidays to everyone! A special thank you to people who read and participate here. I love being a part of Blognation. I’ll be up and running soon, I haven’t wanted to bother tech support (my friend…
The Year That Was 2014
I normally don’t do these posts, but it was a very good year and I feel like sharing. I am going away to Europe for Christmas for two weeks and as I tie up my professional and family life here in Canada before next week there probably won’t be a lot of blogging or gaming…

Dipping the Toe Back In
And almost had it cut off. With Izlain’s inadvertent prodding and poking I re-downloaded League of Legends. It’s always hard returning to a game you haven’t played in a while and especially so when it is a game that changes frequently. There is a relearning period where not only are you remembering the basics of…
Worth Not Threatening to Kill You About
I don’t normally write about serious things but if this is the kind of things “free speech” is supposed to protect then the NRA is the most sensible organization in the USA. Sorry to my USA friends who are NRA members. I just find them inflexible and not open minded for discussion, and that was…
