  • Ad Fab Fridays — Dear Sophie

    As a fan of commercials, I often get caught up in them. It’s not uncommon for my boyfriend to change the channel to help me avoid becoming a blubbering mess over an advertisement. This is one such advert. If you watch it yourself, I’m sure you’ll see where the weepyness comes from. I too have […]

  • The tortoise was right….

    Great post by Seth about the waste of rushing. I always try to scope my projects realistically while also updating progress and recommending to take more time rather than rush. Hurrying almost always makes it take longer http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/typepad/sethsmainblog/~3/WSjZot1D3Fs/doing-it-in-a-hurry-almost-always-takes-longer.html

  • The Zen of Work

    Found this interesting post from the inspiring site Zen Habits about work, stress and why we hold onto it. http://zenhabits.net/zen-work/ I hardly need another reason to reap the benefits of meditation but this was an interesting perspective otherwise.

  • Run Forest, run

    I’ve put a goal to myself for the next 2 weeks: to run at least 2 miles per day. I’m Canadian so not sure why I’ve chosen the distance in miles but the number seemed good. And it’s small enough to convince myself to get out there every day but long enough that I can […]

  • on politics

    I have followed this blog for years, mostly for Karen’s beautiful photography & wonderful perspective. And while I’m not American, half my family lives there. So part of me does pay attention, with no real concrete opinion but more a viewers interest. Her post today struck me…perhaps because, like my father, she became an American […]

  • Get out

    Productive day from the coffee shop. I often have to remind myself that sometimes, I need to change my surroundings to get the most out of my day. Plus, people in the world as background noise tend to be better vehicles for creative energy than the daytime television choices. Perhaps I should always schedule a […]

  • Blogging on the go

    Welcome to the next century, I’ve just added the WordPress app to my phone. My blogging will go through a bit of a renewal as this 2012-2013 school year begins. I’m not in school, but every September I get that sense of renewal. So, now is as good a time as any. Plus, my new […]
