The weekend’s winding to a close, but it’s been an excellent one. The weather was gorgeous, not too hot, which was great as we ended up shifting stuff around most of the weekend. After church and lunch at the sushi place (Sushi Garden, off Yonge just north of St. Clair) Anne went off to meet […]

First barbeque of the season last night! It was really nice weather. Anne and I spent the day puttering around the city in an Autoshare car and made it up to the big Canadian Tire at St. Clair and Keele, where I dropped $120 on flowers and herbs. We stopped at Loblaws on the way […]

Here’s a nice photo of the project team at TD. It’s a good mix of client personnel, PeopleSoft consultants, and Accenture consultants. We’re running at full steam at the moment, quite an exciting phase.

Another very busy week behind us. We’re closing in on May 16th, the end of the Build and Unit Test phase of my project, and the team’s working at full speed. I managed to fit a few non-work things in this week, however: – Exultate board meeting on Tuesday, my first meeting as chair as […]

The Easter weekend is upon us, and Anne and I are at my place. Seems strange to be here — it’s been a month since I first moved up to Anne’s, and… no, the bugs haven’t completely gone, so I can’t move back here any time soon. 🙁 We rented Amelie and watched it last […]

Just got back from a couple of days in St. Charles, IL, at the Center for Professional Education, a training facility that’s basically the last vestige of the Arthur Andersen corporation. Accenture rents space at the facility for training sessions. I was one of six senior managers from our Toronto office down on an excellent […]

It’s been a really busy time over the last few days. The weather hasn’t helped — a late winter storm dumped about a foot of snow and ice on Friday and Saturday, nixing our plans to go to Georgetown for the weekend to see Anne’s parents. It’s finally starting to warm up today. Work is […]

Well, in Toronto it sure doesn’t feel like spring. There’s a horrible ice storm kinda thing going on outside.

Well, it’s only Wednesday but it’s been a very busy week! This evening Anne joined my team for an outing to Gerrard St. East for very tasty Indian food. Yesterday night, we went with Meredith and Bernard for Japanese food at Kobe and then saw the wonderfully twisted musical “Sweeney Todd”. Monday I met Suzy […]
