Mr. & Mrs. Barrick

I could easily spend the rest of the day just wading through the gazillion messages in my inbox and not get a thing done, let alone blogging about the wedding. Elaine has posted some thank-you's in her journal and I have set up an FTP account for uploading photos.


Wedding Day Today

A little later today Elaine will officially be stuck with me (and Jazz and Tharsis.)

Job Hunting and Whatnot

I've got a job interview out in Burnaby near Production Way station today. It's not the greatest job on Earth and I'm not super excited about it - which pretty much ensures I'll get an offer - but I can't afford to pass up opportunities in this job climate.
