The famous view from Citadel Hill of the Old Town Clock.
Built in 1803 it has been keeping time for 206 years! Off in the
distance is Georges Island and behind that a glimpse of McNab's island
sitting at the mouth of the harbour.
Soon that green hill will be covered with snow. We are expecting a storm tonight! Rain then snow ending at noon. Winter arrives with a bang when it does come:) I've got some books and chai tea at the ready to keep me cozy.
Here's a sneak peek of a draw we are having on December 30th. Really only applicable to locals but you can pop over and have a look. HalifaxChicks Prize Draw for BustaMove

2:30 minutes of animated butterflies and dragonflies. Well worth your two minutes.
- Boo is fine. She came home around 6:30am. She cried. I let her in. 10 min later, she wanted back out. I think that was when we started the cycle of her crying, me yelling "shut up!" and falling back to sleep. x5, till 11am, when I let Moshi out. Then they both came back in. Then Moshi went back out and, wisely, just before I left for work (11:45 - early for me), Boo decided to go out too.
- Got off work at around 1am tonight. Sucks to get home, turn on the TV, and see that it's already 1:30am. As long as there's work, I'll be in the office for a MIN of 10 hrs a day for the rest of the year... working toward an impossible deadline (but my dept has to make sure that the blame falls on the sw team instead of us).
- ASL Sign Language Question: Should "Damn, I wish I was your lover" be signed as:
- Damn, I wish I will (implied "be") your lover
- Damn, I wish I am (literally signed) your lover
- Damn, I wish I (implied "am") your lover
- I really really want to go to Vegas. I don't know why. NYE would be fun but it's not worth the price (2 nights, with partying at the Orleans is over $450... during the summer, rooms were $18/night... 1,250% more expensive = NOT COOL!!)
- Today I ordered this awesome Bottle Top Tripod. No more trying to take pics of myself in the mirror - now I can set it up on a table and user the timer. Other sites have the same tripod for a slightly cheaper but my link has FREE SHIPPING (which I didn't know when I ordered), so $10 is total cost. WIN (DOUBLE WIN since I didn't know about the free shipping).
- Oh. Wait. Does my new phone even have a tripod connector? Ah, F it... if it doesn't, I'll use the old one. Or my digacam.
- Roku, the Netflix play (which is WiFi compatible) is down to $80. $100 for an HD version. $130 for an HD version that broadcasts to remote TVs. I'll probably buy it on Thurs (payday).
- Hoping-hoping-hoping I wake up in time, and remember, to see It's a Wonderful Life on a movie screen tomorrow. If I don't, I won't have another chance this year.
- Things I always like: Candles (I want one wall in my future "bar" room to be a total fire hazard: covered with candle wall sconces - cause that's what you want around booze!), windchimes (metal and/or wood; tuned)
- Current mental fantasy obsession: How to fit both a jacuzzi and glass stone fire pit (plus seating) in my 12'x12' backyard. If I figure it out, I'm gonna have it built!
- My sinus infection is better but the coughing has started. I'm hoping to end it before it gets out of control.
- Jamilla DeVille won the International Pole Dance Federation's "Instructor of the Year" award. Yay!!~~!
- Gay Progressive Dinner Party on Sunday... and Earl will be there. Should be fun! (maybe I'll be nice and take a pic of Earl while he's AWAKE... I'll have to act fast (even when I went to his house for dinner & a movie, he fell asleep on me!))
- I am totally on board with Crankypant's rant about the Grammy nominations (you have to be in her hood to view that link). Today I heard that the Silversun Pickups are up for Best New Artist. I've been hearing them on the radio for at least 3 years now. "best NEW artist"... WTF?
- Just saw Micheal Buble on Oprah. I really like his voice. Why don't I own any of his CDs (or mp3s)??
- Zero 7's "The Road" is a beautiful song. Beautiful. I got the CD (supposed to be an advanced copy but I think it didn't work out that way) when I renewed my KCRW membership. LOVE the CD (except 1st & last tracks, both strange instrumental mixes). Also got & love the Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix CD (my drive to work, plus putting on makeup in the parking lot, takes EXACTLY the length of the CD). Mixed on Band of Skulls, which sounds like Jack White (who I don't really care for). Haven't listened to the 4th CD yet - don't know what it is. Long story longer: I'll link the Zero 7 youtube vid at the bottom of this - but, fyi, there are no visuals in it.
- update, 2:42am: Just saw that Zero 7 will be playing a local, small, venue on the 16th. A Wed. There is no way I will be able to get off work to go. FAIL!!
- It's 2:35am. I'm going to bed (or going to pretend that I am). Hope you all had a good Friday night. I'd love to read about it my comments!
