This past week I heard nothing but “Girlfriend” remix by Avril Lavigne blaring from the back room at my in-law’s house. The two nieces were rehearsing a dance for the family, which they performed after Thanksgiving dinner. Photo credit: torontopaul on Flickr (with permission) Their dance was really sweet and thoughtfully choreographed but once the […]

Sometimes I can be cranky. I know, it’s hard to believe, but I can. Today I have been in a pretty crummy mood. It’s come in waves but man, it can be unbearable sometimes. Luckily for me, John will never hesitate to let me know when I’m being completely unreasonable and intolerable. In the same […]

Although I’d rather hear about how to survive this wicked cold, I got a shout out on Digg this morning from Darren regarding the latest video from Common Craft. Lee and Sachi LeFever create these simple and “in plain English” demos (see my write up about Lee in the BarCamp live blog) for anything from […]

We are so busy this week I think come Saturday I’ll either be sick or my head will fall off. Here’s what’s coming up this week in the land of Miss604.com: Tonight is the Metroblogging Vancouver meetup, we haven’t had one of these in ages, and I haven’t been to one in like a year […]

When Buzz wants to hear about hockey and beer I’m super glad he thinks of me. This afternoon on 95 Crave, a local Vancouver radio station, Buzz gave me a call to talk about the ‘sippy cup beer‘ at GM Place this season. Here’s a little snippet from his Ustream – yes, he also Ustreams […]

I try to cut down on paper bills so I request online billing whenever I can but sometimes that’s not an option. Either that or you forget your login information so instead of resetting your account password they just start sending you mail again… people powered… whatever…… Today we bought a Mailmate and I spent […]

But I will be at Holly McNarland‘s show tonight at the Vancouver East Cultural Centre. Tickets are $19.95 and there are still a few available if you’d like to check out my fave Canadian female singer/songwriter. Update: Deb left a note in the comments about attending the show – some of her pics are featured […]

Yesterday I put the super-secret word out that Dancing Matt himself would be down at English Bay, well, dancing. In February of 2003, he quit his job in Brisbane, Australia and used the money he’d saved to wander around the planet until it ran out. He made this site so he could keep his family […]

Photo credit: squeakymarmot Hip new acronym or buzz word? Kinda. It all started at Podcamp Pittsburgh and it’s been taking over my Twitter airwaves every since. But just what is bacn aside from sounding like a delicious meat from a magical animal? It started at the registration desk at Podcamp Pittsburgh 2 on Saturday afternoon. […]

Over the last few years Bill Lin and his crew have organized Vancouver’s own version of the Amazing Race, and have done a fantastic job. My sister and I were lucky enough to participate earlier this spring and I have to say it’s a really great adventure. Since September 2004, The Amazing Hunt introduces this […]
