Movember Stories

Finished my first week of the new job, and it’s pretty amazing. I’m learning new things, helping plan events and strategies, and generally learning my way around to-level academia from a service perspective. The whole week hasn’t been sunshine and roses, but most of it has. I played at the Maxwell’s movember show on Friday night, and yesterday performed at the Kitchener Farmer’s Market for Movember for kids, so it’s been a good week for events. That’s my week in a nutshell. New job, events, things. I also have another picture of myself with a terrible moustache. And a story. Go past the jump to learn about why Movember is important.  (more…)

Stepping Back
I am surely a cheater.

Stepping Back

You might have noticed there was no update last week. I forgive you if you didn’t. this time. I’ve got a lot of projects on the go, so many that I’m going to take a step back from a few of them to make time for some more important things in my life. I often keep myself so busy that I don’t have time to sort out the stuff that really matters, and I want to work on that. There’ll still be updates, but I need to do less things in order to do the things I want to do better. Also, job! (more…)

Man, it’s been…A week. KW Engage blew my mind, I had some great meetings with the Classics department and got a lot of work done on Headshots from the Heart. Not to mention doing two shows, helping out some friends…And there was something else. Oh yeah, I convocated. I now officially have a Master’s degree in philosophy. Paper and everything. But that’s not important.  (more…)

October Madness, part 2

It’s been just about a year since I started posting here, and I’m pleased about two things. First, things in my life haven’t slowed down at all. Second, they’re getting better. There’s definite progress happening, and I can see that by reading the last eight months of posts. Last October I was getting used to grad school and getting ready to speak at Ignite. This month, well, it’s time for one of those “What I’m up to” posts.  (more…)

Obligatory Thanksgiving Post

It’s a long weekend, so I spent a little more time on this update. It also took a little more time to write. I wanted to be thankful for something other than friends and family. I am, in the abstract, but in general they take up most of my life. I did lots of things this week, saw a lot of great friends, made some new ones, taught some kids some circus skills, and played probably more games than I should have. I spent Saturday night with the family I made, and Sunday dinner with the family I was born with, where I noticed the family game for the first time. We have our own family game, the Tigwells do. You might be familiar with it, it’s called “I’m Right.”  (more…)
