Presenting… hot air balloons

Written on August 19, 2008 at 8:05 pm | 4 Comments

Welcome to layout number seven of ImaginarySunshine.com. I’m your host, Michelle, and this is layout seven with ‘hot air balloons over the city at sunset’. I hope you all like it, I know that I do.

Work was okay today. I have fifteen pages for my lovely second-to-last manual that I’m writing for work. Yay for being accomplished! I got a lot of work done. However, I cannot touch eight of thirteen of my projects until next week when people involved get back. Yay for pushing everything back to the last possible moment…

I’m just going to go and fall over and sleep now. Or just rest my eyes a bit.

It’s gift giving time!

I have some new content today!

I hope everyone has an awesome Sunday August 17th. I’m going to be going to the beach for a party later today at around 10:15-10:30am and then going to an awesome night market from 7-9pm. I hope everyone has a great day and the next time that I post will probably be tomorrow. Have a great day, everyone!

Happy BC Day

BC Day (or British Columbia Day) for those wondering, is not the date of the birthdate of the province of BC. It’s just a civic holiday created for the first Monday of August. Other provinces/territories that have a civic holiday in Canada on the first Monday of August include: New Brunswick (New Brunswick Day), Saskatchewan (Saskatchewan Day), Nunavut (Civic Holiday), Northwest Territories (Civic Holiday), Alberta (Heritage Day), Nova Scotia (Natal Day), Prince Edward Island (Natal Day). While this is all cool, BC has the one that can be shortened the least amount of characters being used (BC Day = 6 characters, 5 if you don’t include the space).

And in other great news, I did a revamp of the section all about me. It includes three very awesome definitions from Urban Dictionary and all about how my portion of Canada isn’t covered with seals and snow. There are also two new pages (basic information and random facts). Have fun reading. And, if no one had noticed in the last few days, I changed my ‘back up’ program of choice for university from a BSc in marine biology to a BSc in evolutionary biological sciences. Yeah, that’s going to be an incredibly long thing to have typed up on a degree, oh well! But that’s just the backup, so it’s okay.

Refund on the season?

It was a very long day at work today. I attended meetings (one that I knew I was supposed to go to, one that I didn’t find out until like an hour before - lots of time for me to prepare there!). One was an hour, the other was two. I was nearly falling asleep by the end of it all. I didn’t really need to be there, I was invited so I attended because they all thought I could learn more about the sales department. I learned that they were all one big mess. But overall, work was stressful (projects again) and boring (meetings, spending time with D who was incredibly pissed that he was basically left alone to run the floor because everyone else was out sick or on paternity leave). And people were all cheerful about the meetings, saying that it was great that I was sitting in on them while I was smiling and secretly grinding my teeth. They thought they were doing me a favour and yes, I spent three hours today in meetings out of my eight that I spend working there. But at the same time, I didn’t really learn anything, and I didn’t get much of my own work (although I suppose attending meetings was work) done. But other than that, my day was okay. Stressful and annoying, but it was okay-ish, I guess. Can’t complain, I got paid today.

But other than that, it’s been raining today. And it rained yesterday. And it’s suppose to rain tomorrow. And it’s supposed to be summer. Can I get a refund on the season?

I’ve come up with a few new project ideas. Mostly network sites, so yay. Also planning on getting some new content up in the next few days.

A few new pages

It’s been a pretty mellow day. I stayed in bed until around 11am. I had crab (yum!) for lunch. I flipped through my Photoshop book for a bit. I watched an episode of Stargate Atlantis. I’m currently eating a popsicle while typing and listening to the American McGee’s Alice soundtrack. I’m getting to be very boring lately. But next month is going to be interesting. I have two birthday parties to attend, potentially an anime convention, as well as attempting to sell textbooks from last year to the in-coming first year students who will, hopefully, buy the crap I have on my bookshelf.
