Training Log Archive: Bash

I didn't intend to take an entire week off training and can't remember when that happened last, but finally the lack of preparation for our NZ trip caught up with me. It's not so much the packing - it's all the things to do because we're going away, e.g. arranging a house sitter, clearing a path through our disorganized house for the house sitter to walk on, upgrading the security system, paying bills, taking dogs to my parents' place a couple of hours away, GST return for my business, sending materials to important meetings that I'll miss, etc. Anyway, we're heading out shortly, and whatever has been forgotten... well, it's just too late. 'Bent and I will try to keep in touch on AP when we can. OK, I can't put it off any longer. It's time to go sit in airports and airplanes for the next 26 hours or so. Bye for now!

Attended the 1st birthday party of Bullfrog Power - the clean, green electricity company that powers 'Bent's office, four Ontario Walmart stores, Cadbury, the World Wildlife Fund, and the homes of author Margaret Atwood and musician Gord Downie of the Tragically Hip. The Bullfrog people know how to market - it's cool to watch how smart they are. The hors d'oeuvres were yummy and different, and the other guests were approachable and interesting. Hammer's new favourite book, "Heat", was out on a table, and I flipped through it - interesting. Definitely not your usual cocktail party.

If you live in Ontario, check out Bullfrog Power. (Oh oh, I hope Eddie doesn't read my log!)
