I HATE SPIDERS. As I am writing this, I just noticed a big spider hanging from the patio door frame behind me, and it is making me extremely anxious. I am going to make an attempt at killing the 8-legged freak, but it I miss or it gets away I may need to burn it all to the ground. Here's hoping...

My province just released a COVID-19 notification/tracking app which is being trial tested to be released to the rest of the country if it works out. This device does not collect any data from you, does not track your geo location, and is pretty straightforward. The code is open source so I am...

So I was sitting by my backdoor for about an hour tonight just watching the tremendous amount of rain coming down and the sounds/flashes or thunder/lightning from the storm going through. The amount of rain that was coming down, ultimately overwhelmed the sewer system and there was mild...

I saw this on Facebook and it made me chuckle. How are you going to remember 2020? Does anything jump out at you from it besides...y’know...the quarantine?

So today I found out that a project I had been working on for a couple weeks before going on vacation got scrapped. The people who gave it approval are now pulling back on it. I found out because a coworker who is covering me sent me a message on our internal chat system to give me an update...

So I think it is time for me to look into getting The Sims 4. I have been getting lost in youtube videos just watching people designing their sim-houses and I think that might be "fun and exciting" for a bit :P. I just checked Steam and The Sims 4 is $40...hmm...do I "really" want to play it?
