My first tattoo was my entire back. I was 17 and all of the kids I was in school with were getting dinky little tamanian devils and crap like that.

Fuck! Adam Beyer kills it! He's so amazing. I notice almost every time I check your journal you're going to see one of my favorite DJs. There is almost no techno scene in NYC believe it or not. Our former mayor fucked things up for club owners and that basically put the squash on any fun times here.

If you'ld be interested I'd love to send you some of my DJ sets on cd. I'm sure that you'ld be well into the types of tracks I play. Drop me line.

Okay neighbors from the North. In one week I'm travelling to Dorset, specifically Lake Kawagama for days on end of mountain biking. What else is there to do? If nothing, I'll just keep pedaling.

glad you're feeling better. do what ever it take to get the blood pressure under control, yesterday. people rarely feel side effect of high blood pressure till one day you wake up and your kidneys are shot. I speak from experience, dialysis sucks ass

I am not a doctor so don't take my advice as the gospil, but seizures are a serious thing not to jack with. It is not nessary related to how you care for your health but more a neurological reaction. Sometimes this kick at any age and can be triggered from just crazy brain working. I would recommend seeing a Neurologist to get fully checked out.

I suspect you went into a seizure, and if in a public place they rushed you to ER. If so the common response can be blood pressure. Reallity they are not specialists and are generalists and only provide possibilities.

I have someone close that started having seizures at 26, ever since she has been on seizure free medication and is free of seizures now for 6 years. She was also pretty healthy, we worked out every day, lots of water and kept clear of fast or fried foods.

I don't want to freak you out, but good eating and great exercise may not do the trick.

Only wishing you the best of health. Any ? feel free to ask away

What DownNeck said. Also, monster.com has some pretty reliable salary data too... not sure if it covers Canada, though. You're damn smart... I don't think you'll have trouble getting a job you like that pays well. Programming is like playing the guitar... it's easy to do, but hard to do well.

See, I started as the 9-5 Mon-Fri office code jammer and have moved to the 4 days a month over-paid contractor I worked my ass off in my old job and felt after three years I'd had enough. So I went contract with the intention of pursuing a few thing myself and still having money to live off, and I'm still doing it a year and a bit later. I make more money, do way less and have time to work on my cars, house, friends, family, all the important stuff. I guess I figured out its work to live, not live to work!

those colors sound great. glad to see that you are going to post more.

I think IKEA stuff is cool, it's not all crap - and it's not too far away!

If you work a 9-5, then yeah thats how it is. Get home from work, eat, be tired and want to relax, then sleep and repeat!! The weekends are never long enough, even without a job. That's why after 3 and a half years of it I quit and set up my own contracting/consultancy company. Now I work a few days a month for more money than I used to make working continuously, and over a year in I've had no problems in having enough work to pay the bills and have fun. No i have time to relax, work on my house and cars, do things I enjoy and go on tour with the band whenever suits.

I just have to stop by here once in a while and remind you that you are still my favorite girl. I don't why exactly. I guess I'll just have to live with it. And I've seen every set. Maybe it's the H.G. Wells, or the David Bowie or that your bday is the day before mine. I'll write a computer program to do the computations and get back to you.

rosalyn,
quite honestly it felt like shit when i found out what i had done. i felt worse realizing that the people i was visiting didn't think it was an issue. in the former soviet union religeous morals were quashed by an athiestic regime. also women are not equal to men. girls are taught that the way to success in life is by finding the right man to take care of them. girls over there don't have the career or educational opportunities that american girls do.

this fourteen year old girl had all the signals down. poise, posture, clothing and body language. she also took better care grooming herself than most american girls. i had no clue.

i am not trying to say that what i did was excusable. i brought up this topic to highlight mistakes. i repeat: i felt low. like i unknowingly proved the truth of the bad reputation american tourists have overseas.

i got defensive because it hurt to read your response. i respect you more than most on this group.

Just thought you should know...(no harm being said here) I eat locally made honey, it helps with my allergies. Since the bees use the native pollen, it helps me build up resistance to allergens.

Plus I support a local business man.

Hey there,
Got yer little smiley face, so I had to check you out. WOAH! You are one lovely little lady! Really liked the Cool Down, and Rollerskate sets! And I hear that you're not just a pretty face, but got the grey matter workin' upstairs too.
A little Twwly bird told me that stuff.

Also intrigued by your music tastes. Lots I can relate to there. Nobukazu Takemura is also a fave of mine, and your maybe the only other person I've seen that knows.

Keep up the good work, and congrats on finishing your...uh..machine learnin'.

Richie Hawtin is my favorite DJ ever. I've seen him 4 or 5 times, and it's always a kick in the ass.

You don't update enough!!

i think you need to update this little jobbie!

how the hell are you?
how's your foot?

I cannot resist to mention how fucking awesome it is that you named your cats after old programming languages.

lol, I was goign to say, ya getting old...telling the kids to knock off the racket...but I see its a principles thing, not a noise thing

Well in my area you have random drum circles that form. dam hippies
