Moo Point

I think there aren’t enough rituals anymore. Enough traditions. One of my favourite aspects of the Lutheran church are the traditions. I don’t have any one set tradition regarding starting something new. But I always like to make some effort to change something in my life. Since I have started a new career as a Content Specialist with NETELLER (and it’s going great, by the way), I did a few things to have a fresh start.

1. I shaved my head. I wasn’t actually planning on shaving my head. However someone (Leah) thought she could handle trimming my hair. After that went terribly wrong, we shaved it all off.
2. Changing my blog design. I never found a rhythm for blogging with my previous employer. And the previous theme by Ian Stewart (which was really interesting) always felt a bit oppressive to me. Many thanks to Will Wilkins for creating this great theme. I was looking for this exact layout for a long time and then I finally found it. I love it when that happens. There are a lot of aspects to this theme and I will be tweaking some of the styling. But sit down and get comfortable. Thing design is going to be around for a while.

Feel free to leave any feedback.

Surviving a Lay Off

On Tuesday, I was laid off from my job, so I am in the process of looking for a new job, doing a few freelance jobs and potentially temping. You can read about it on soveran.ca.

Doing My Part

In my continuing attempts to be environmentally friendly last night I shaved my head (again). The benefits of shaving your head: Cooler (I mean I look cool), not as warm (don’t need the A/C on, not that I have A/C to turn on), and … I’m awesome. Also, instead of shaving my head inside, Leah buzzed it outside so that my hair wouldn’t just go into the garbage but into mother nature and nurture the forests and also in your soup. Therefore, do not eat soup outside for the next few weeks or my hair might blow into it.
