Well not that much fun at work..pretty boring day really...well for the most part. I did mostly reading and had a good meeting. :) I keep learning about Wikis...there's a lot of information when you think about administering the darn things! So many things to consider, and because this deals with government and its issues, lots of things to always keep in mind! Well that's my work day.
While I was working a co-worker brought me some jokes that he had kept on his puter. They were sent to him from one of the librarians a few years ago. I checked the site they came from and found something neat, but to be warned..it can become highly addictive..hahaha...the games comes from this diversions site, which comes from the main site. It's basically a satirical library related site, well just the name of the site should make you think..lol warrior librarian weekly.
Well that's about it for now! Drinking tonight! My buddy Kev's Rec hockey team is in the finals! and it's make it or break it hockey and then I'm off to the team party. Woo Hoo, more drinking and getting stupid!
Later all,

Finally spring is here..
well according to the calendar it's here, not sure with the weather outside, well can't complain it's melting and fairly nice, this morning was rain, late morning we had the sun out, and now it's back to good ole cloudiness. Oh what fun!
Well, what else is new with me...I had a load of fun at indoor soccer last nite. Really realised how out of shape I'm in! But it was fun. I got called by a buddy who plays in this "all sports league", which basically is like good ole Junior High Gym class for adults. The team gets together once a week and plays a different team for an hour, and the sport activities are always different. They play a 5 or 6 sport in rotation over 16 weeks or something like that. Last nite was indoor soccer, last week was basketball, and next week is ball hockey. It's a pretty neat concept for people who like to get out once and awhile, play something different and have fun. There are different levels, from rec to competitive (this was rec league, but still loads of fun!) .
On the work side of things, nothing too new. Still working on the Wiki project and on the NRCan Library Webpage project. Fun stuff, keeping me enthused, and busy in a good way. Well that's about it!
Cheers all,
Jer l'Acadien!

Back to work...and I think it's going to be a good day :)
Well today started out good, was feeling much better, so I decided to go to work. :)
A short while after I got to work, I got a great email, finally the NRCan Wiki is up, and I can access it!! WOO HOO!!! I will be able to see some of this project realize itself.
Also, it's PAY DAY!! which makes Jérémie a happy boy! Got to love those second Wednesdays.
I also added a few fun links to my blog, Ricks Sports Pools page and an interesting library cartoon that I picked off of Kathleens blog. I will add more later down the road...just have to figure what I want to add in there :)
Well that's about it for my morning, if I find anything else to report later today, I will add another post later.
Cheers all,

Sick Tuesday...
Well today was mostly un-eventful. I was sick, so called in sick at work and well took it easy. Had a good morning nap, and then did some work reading stuff, as I still had access to my email :) I also had some homework for my Advocacy course, which I started last night, and pushed off my viewing of Superman Returns. I did my homework, and then realized I was a bit behind in my Advocacy Course as the prof wanted the outline for our final project today. OOPS...ah well I emailed the prof asking for a few days, as I really hadn't noticed anything until today. Ah well...that course is a lot of work..more than I had anticipated. Every week we have to do something, no breaks it seems. Sort of happy it's all I am doing this term, it makes it a bit easier. Well enough school/work talk.
Superman Returns well I watched it tonight instead :) It wasn't too bad, sort of opens doors to other Superman films which I like. I am not a comic book reader, so I have no idea how the story fits in regards to that, but I liked the movie. It was sort of predictable, but that's alright, it's Superman :)
Well that's about it for now, hope I feel better tomorrow morning, the day was progressively better, but right now, feel like I'm going to be sick again..ah well. Have a great night everyone!

late Monday night post..
Well was the usual quiet Monday..
Not much happened today at work, worked on the NRCan Library Single Window project. Not really doing much, but at least it occupied my morning, and in the afternoon, well I had a Wiki meeting, and would you believe I have been on the committee for over 6 weeks and it still hasn't been installed. Goes to show how much politics/bureaucracy you need to go through to get something done within the government. Ah well, I keep telling myself that I am the lowly co-op student, and do what I can when the opportunities are there.
Other than that...well I heard of this great restaurant in town called Beckta, but I am not sure I can afford it yet. I guess it has been reviewed in the NY Times. One of the only if not the only restaurant in Ottawa to be reviewed there. Looking at their website..it looks pretty neat :) Well who knows...if Trish maybe made it up again, we could go try it :) Ah well, that's about it for my comments today. Think I'm going to watch Superman tonight :)

The day after St Paddys...
Oh my God, what a day!!
My St Paddys started in the afternoon with Guinness, then to Keiths draught (gross--but was basically one of the only choices), at least it wasn't green beer...that's pretty much it for my drinking, but I had a blast!! was a pretty casual evening nothing too big. Wasn't sick, wasn't too drunk, was just a good night! However, the end of the night was quite the blast, literally a blast, cause when Graham (one of my buddies friends) took the fire extinguisher and turned it on in the bar...was quite the show! Hahahahaha...good times! Glad today that I'm not feeling too rough. This weekend blog has no library related news! but it was quite fun, I had a blast! Well for now..I guess this will be my post for now, cause I have a lot of stuff to do today, nothing too new. Later everyone!
Cheers,

P.S. Cudos to Kev's dad with the brunch omellete :) it was a good fit :)
