delayed reaction

I apologize for the delay in writing but I managed to forget my username and password.. it was probably in good timing too since most of the entries would likely have involved much ranting about work. Ah, I'm not so sure about this working world.

[I also changed the options so anyone can leave a comment now - please feel free to]

Fortunately I escaped to SF on Sunday albeit a persistant fever and head cold. Paul and I went back to the Exploritorium Science Museum to catch the other half that we missed when we last visited in July. There are a lot of cool contraptions, although mostly devoted to Physics (I started getting dizzy after seeing about the 40th circuit - even the water fountain was set up like one). Yet Paul was in love. Luckily I regained strength (and interest) when we hit the large Psychology section... ever drank out of a toliet? We also went back to the Wharf and ate some over priced crap (yes that's what it tasted like) and drove down Castro (gay/lesbian district), which was vcool... Paul and I have now hit the 3.5 yr mark - yikes & wow. And yeah, I'm feeling much better.

In news back in Calgary, my dad just completed an IRONMAN!! I'm so incredibly proud of him.. It hurts just imagining having to run, swim and bike for 13 hours and 53 minutes in one day!!

Been trying to do some soul searching lately.. still not sure what I want to do when I grow up, where I want to be, etc. I know everyone back home is starting back at school and I can't help but wonder what that experience must be like right now (don't know that I'm really ready for it) or how I could have helped if instead I took an adventure in Africa. Alas, I'm here and hopefully making a difference in some child's life and not just some corporations chequebook - 'cause I'm certainly not making much of a difference in mine. :P

Anyway, on with the pictures (if you haven't seen pictures of my place, let me know and I'll send you some)..
