What I’ve Been Up To
I've been a bad blogger. I've neglected this space for nearly over a month, and for that I sincerely apologize! It's been a busy few weeks, though, so let me fill you in on what I've been up to:
- Had a disagreement with Torstar - rabble.ca has the story.
- Re-branded my online newspaper to The Cambridge Voice
- Started my new job
- Became an expert on negotiating the GOTrain & TTC systems for maximum efficiency - insofar as that's possible. ;)
- Launched a new blog
- Refreshed the "corporate" website
- Finished some renovation projects on my house
- Found out we're having another baby
- Started (and re-started) some renovation projects on my house
- Whipped up a little website for my little sister. The Quintessential Baby [added]
- Attended the Toronto TweetUp arranged by Adele McAlear [added]
All-in-all a busy month. I hope November is a little calmer.
Update: I've been reminded that I forgot a few things - they've been added above.

Colin, you forgot to mention going to the Toronto Tweetup, LOL! Congratulations to you on everything, but especially on the baby news. I wish your wife a peaceful, healthy pregnancy and your family my best wishes for your newest member.

congrats on the baby!!!!! eee! that’s exciting (and scary).
and congrats on the other stuff too.
i have to ask tho…why so many bunny ears on the “corporate” website”? it makes me suspicious. ;)

Whew. I think I need a nap just from reading that.
However, all’s well that ends well, and very hearty congratulations on the baby! (I just found out I’m getting a niece/nephew in April as well.)
Here’s to a REALLY “boring” November. :)

Zoe: the “corporate” is in quotes cuz churches get antsy when we use biz terms to describe our work – and not everyone would know what a “denominational” website is.
Thanks for the congrats, everyone!
