- Some text incoming here, I warn you.Here's Asher. He's a little under 2 years old but we don't know for sure what age. His original owners apparently moved house and LEFT HIM BEHIND, literally abandoning him. He was probably just over a year old at that point.Thankfully the neighbours tried to take care of him but he ended up living outside as they couldn't take him in. They fed him and took care of him until they could get him a slot at a shelter. He landed at the second shelter a little later as the original shelter was not a no-kill shelter and he was on borrowed time. That's when I got the lead on him and it's taken a few weeks to get everything sorted out. Last night Asher came home. I caught this picture of him after just about an hour of being home. I think he's comfortable.He's a huge love-bug. He wants nothing more than to be petted and loved. Not surprising with what he's been through. I've got some training to do… he's housetrained and knows some basic commands but he's also still a puppy… "stay" seems to be problematic LOL.He and Nanuq are getting along just fine. I think we'll have a few scuffles over rawhides as Nanuq's used to having them all to himself and Asher likes them too. But nothing we can't handle.Welcome home, Asher. We're so happy to have you.#siberianhusky #huskiesofinstagram - February 1, 2026

- Classing it up tonight on the first night of a much needed long weekend away. Do not chug… - December 17, 2025
I know, I promised an update sooner, but this last week has been bizarre. I’m not going to get into details, but I’ll just suffice to say that this morning I’m sitting in my study with a back-brace on trying desperately not to move for fear of extreme pain. Even typing is a chore because my right hand is hurt.
So is there anything to update? Yeah, a little. I’ve decided in the last few days to buy myself a motorbike for commuting back and forth to work. I’ve actually been toying with the idea for months, but only now have I made the decision to actually pull the trigger and buy it. A friend of mine is selling it to me; a Honda Nighthawk 750. Nice bike… low mileage… killer deal. Already gotten myself a helmet, gloves and a nice new jacket… anyone around town should see me on it sometime around the last two weeks in April. Happy birthday to me 🙂
Speaking of my birthday… yep… it’s coming. Less than a week left. Damn, I feel old.
Not much else to write about today. I still haven’t had a chance to write up that review of Robots on IMDB… but rest assured there WILL be a link. I have been thinking of ways to improve this blog engine and will get down to implementing them soon. Hopefully time should be better this next week; I have a few projects reaching “wind-down” of phase I, and though I already have a new project starting up I’ll not be doing the late night thing like I was before.
I do enjoy my job, but I have to wonder if the new reorganization at work is actually going to amount to much. So far the only thing it’s changed for me is my reporting structure, but that’s only because I have a lot of long-term projects still running that really won’t end for a little while yet. Once those projects wind up though, who knows?
For now I’ll sign off… got coffee to drink and pain killers to consume 🙂
