not dead
Bon, ça fait un an que j’ai pas écrit, malgré un paquet de changements passés complètement sous silence dans cet espace désormais fréquenté que par les bots: le retour à Montréal mon assignation en charge de Rainbow 6 Patriots mon quarantième anniversaire le dixième anniversaire de mon blogue l’adoption de Maurice Richard le Boston Terrier,...
new look
The chronicles have just gone through another makeover – much as I liked the previous template, it reflected a part of my life that’s over, and so a change was imperative. This new skin is a courtesy of Jonathan, whom as you can see pinked his own revamped template to create mine. Still some kinks...
hey
This blog’s not dead. I’m not at a loss for content, or words. I’m not over the whole blogging thing. Frankly I’ve never been more under it. Thing is, there’s been more interesting stuff happening lately than pretty much anything I’ve written about in the past few years. Not just good interesting, either. Bad, sad,...
new kid on the blog
After several late evenings of frustration and tweaking, and with a final little help from blog superhero Patrick, Jonathan has finally put his blog online. Go have a look!
you and me
Tomorrow will mark the 5th birthday of this blog. Things have changed a lot since I started. It’s now routine for people, any people, to Google each other. I now work in a smaller industry, one where people know each other by name even without having met. Clients, partners, employers might any day find this site,...
notice anything different?
About three days after I redesigned this blog the last time, T sent me a mockup for a kickass new design for it. Almost apologetically, he said he’d been inspired. Nearly a year later, I’ve finally gotten around to implementing it. I’ve also switched hosts and content management systems (from Movable Type to WordPress), using...
yulblog lives again
Last night, we switched the location of Yulblog to the new local watering hole La Quincaillerie, a new place next to Montreal’s most famous poutine parlor, la Banquise. A lovely 15-minute walk through the Park from my house, La Quincaillerie (the “hardware store”) is hip and unpretentious, has extremely friendly staff, and is rapidly becoming...
four more years!
It’s been four years this weekend since I tentatively made my first post on this blog, from a hotel room in Banff, March 2002. Lots has happened since that fateful day. A career change, a change in personal status, my first house purchase, my first race, lots of trips and a new furry friend. An...
as fate would have it…
I read this brilliant post while eating take-out Shish Taouk. Welcome to the blogosphere, L.
but comet’s a girl
If it were always this fun and easy to be interviewed, I’d be such a media whore. Thanks Sadia!
about the facelift
Spoke to Mom and Dad tonight, and they had some comments about the redesign. Like quite a few people, Dad misses the cartoon. He even suggested I might lose some readers! The cartoon, however, was one of the things that made it imperative (for me and only me perhaps) that I redesign the site. But...
