print more photos
Printed a whole crapload o' photos 4 years ago

I took advantage of a 10ยข off each print deal for the launch of Shoppers Drug Mart’s new online photo printing service (and got Optimum points!). I’m very happy with the photos. As much as I am a digital girl, it just doesn’t work as well to bring the laptop over to the couch or pull up my site to share photos (especially to people who I might not want to be showing off particular photos to…). So yep, there’s still no substitute for an album full of photos, at least not until digital photo frames come down in price.



make better backups (read all 2 entries…)
I knew I'd miss something 4 years ago

In all my backing up, drive imaging, backing up of backups, etc. before the Great Laptop Format, I knew I’d forget something: fonts! However, if that’s the only thing, I can deal with that.

I’ve been using Memeo and was loving it at first, but when I was bringing the laptop back up, it wouldn’t find the backups to restore them! I ended up having to manually move the files back over and do a search for all the Memeo files it created to delete them. And it’s supposed to be constantly monitoring for file changes, but it didn’t seem to be 100% reliable. So nevermind that program :\



take more bellydance classes (read all 2 entries…)
Thighs... hurt. 4 years ago

Omg, must do Monday night choreography for the spring dance gala. It’s one of my favourite routines! Two dance classes in about five weeks… so depressing :\ But I bought a class card tonight, so I HAVE to go :) The gala is in about a month. This is doable. Thankfully, I have this choreography on video.

I really want to do two… it looks like I’ll be able to make the Saturday noon class as well, so it may very well be possible. I’ve mentioned to my supervisor that it’s really important to me to be able to get to regular dance classes in the next few weeks.

Oh and the photo is me wearing a $700 costume, taken a few months ago (damn, was that really a few months ago?!). It’s actually the most beautiful dusty purple colour. I keep bugging him to email me the full shot, but I still don’t have it, so I’m just posting this darned one. I got to class early one night and no, I certainly didn’t mind modelling this costume for the website!
