MMXII

Posted on January 4, 2012 Posted in 2012, blog, books, Facebook .

It’s that time of year again. As I mentioned in my last update, you should be feeling guilty about what wasn’t accomplished in the previous year. But with the first week of January well underway, there’s an opportunity for new beginnings. Fresh starts! Expect that January is simply a month that ends in Y… does it really have to be the only time of year to set goals, ridicule our failures and set unreasonable expectations?!

So in proper hypocritical fashion, I’ve decided to give myself a few goals (read: resolutions… I just don’t want to call them resolutions). Goals can be measurable and there will be clear evidence as to whether or not I meet these goals.

Gimme me dat clicker

Posted on November 15, 2011 Posted in 2011, blog, Social Media, Uncategorized .

The subject line of this post comes from a series of skits on CBC’s This Hour Has 22 Minutes. It involves a mother (actress Mary Walsh) and son (actor Greg Thomey) who provide commentary on the latest political and pop culture topics; all while watching TV. The mother, donning her fuzzy slippers is often seen kicking the son while lying on the couch.  She’s not happy about the current program they’re watching and therefore wants to change the channel. To which she demands (while kicking), “Gimme me dat clicker!” I can’t find a clip online, but if anyone else can, please leave a comment!

I’m here, and here, and here and…
There are so many social media channels, tools and places nowadays. It’s hard to keep track. Heck, I want to make this contact page more snazzy and whenever I go to edit I think, “Oh I should had my account on such-and-such account here.”

And Now for Something Completely Different…

Posted on September 29, 2010 Posted in 2010, blog, technology, Tumblr .

In case you didn’t know, I also have a Tumbr account – http://vmiddleton.tumblr.com/.

Because I have a wonderful little Motorola Milestone, updating this blog and my Tumblr are very painless. I’ll admit that I’m updating my blog more from a desktop/laptop because it’s faster, but the option is still there.

My Tumblr will serve more for sidebar commentary and more random in-the-moment findings. It’ll have shorter posts that will likely include more multimedia like videos and photos. There’s a nice easy option for quotes too which I’ll toss up from time-to-time when it comes up.

Anyone else using Tumblr? I only follow one person and that’s the lovely onthemetro.

A New Home to Call my Own

Posted on April 1, 2009 Posted in blog .

Well, I’ve finally done it. I’ve made the move to my own hosted domain – http://www.virginia.middleton.ca/blog

Surprisingly, it wasn’t that hard to import my Blogger posts!

I’ll get the hang of Word Press in time. I also want to create a splash page for my site that will then direct a person here. Any suggestions or insights into such an action are greatly appreciated.

I’m still editing a number of photos from the cruise. We’ve been back for weeks, but I’m still trying to get through the editing process when possible. I’ve also found that I have a renewed enthusiasm for my photos now that my camera has returned from Canon (fully recovered and has a clean bill of health!). So I feel much more motivated to take photos again.

I want to read about…

Been there, done that
