Headed up to Lake Minnewanka this afternoon. We hiked around 15km or so... We would have done more, but it started to spit a bit. It was just real nice to get out of the city and just do something random...

More details and pics to come... but I figure the video clip should be a little amusing... lol

Cheers. --Ray

I'm taking a timeout at work .. Just need a few minutes. Been in the office only about an hour and a half, and I've got a feeling, this will be an exceptionally long week. Just chaos...

Did a brief 5 minute inpromptu presentation on the DC for the United Way campaign for Best Buy. That was interesting...

My hearts and prayers go out to bluemnm. *great big hugs*. --Ray

Miss her .. finally heard from her after such a long time .. one thing doesn't change.. if she asked .. I'd drop everything for her....

Today I am working on the crisis lines due to a shortage of volunteers in the phone room. Ah wells. Just try and do the best you can with what you have. Working at best buy again tonight, and hope to keep busy and productive this weekend. Typing on this iPhone isnt as good as it should be. The typing works okay but I think I miss the tactile nature of the blackberrys

Hope everyone has a great weekend

Ps -- if you have twitter my account is 'razorw'. I am still working on the semantics of it

Pics from the wedding at Central Grand last night.... This is the bridal party. From left to right --> Idy, Johanna (i was her date/bridesmaid), Angel, Kelly (maid of honor), Kitty (bride), Calvin (groom), Mahari, and ___?


I was Jo's date for the evening. This is a rare picture. Known her for years... this is probably one of the few photos I have with Jo, and with her in a dress. I think I should buy a lottery ticket, because this isn't happening again anytime soon ... well ... me thinks not *that* soon...


More details soon....

Should be using a few up .. but I just talked to the Accounting Dept here... and I went from 15 days to 21 days vacation ....


... Still having issues deciding what to do ... But I still have some time left...



Oh yes ... a friendly reminder for everyone to BACKUP THEIR DATA...

To jillsmyth:

I just got the certificate in the mail. Thanks. Haven't had a chance to look at class times. But will do so soon. --Ray

Neighbors pissed off that cigarette butts thrown into their yard .. *shrugs* ...Well .. sure .. fine... I'll pass the message, but don't look for an apology. I'm not a baby sitter.

I know its more than that ... so blah...

Been so busy the last few days.

Short summary, since I have only a few minutes left on my lunch break.
