Ask Me Weekend #6: We Come From the Land of the Ice and Snow…

When are you going to get tired of the frozen north and take the soon-to-be-spouce [sic] of yours to live in a nice warm climate?

K4

No time soon. Short of us moving to our respective countries’ instances of Niagara Falls, we’re in the best places to be for now as far as being able to see each other prior to and after the wedding (there’s an obnoxiously long process around that that can’t get started until we get married — long story). But we have talked a little about finding our way west at some point, perhaps to San Francisco.

Not much traffic on this one this week (though I’ll still answer items that trickle in), maybe we’ll play again next week. Bring your questions!

Ask Me Weekend #6

I haven’t done this in over a year, and I’ve got new readers who haven’t seen it before, so it’s time for a comeback.

This weekend is Ask Me Weekend #6. Kinda like “open line Friday,” leave a comment below asking me a question you’d like answered in a blog post this weekend. Most anything goes, though I always reserve the right to delete egriegiously offensive comments and spam.

Have a go, and make it interesting!

Ask Me Weekend #5: Booze and video games

How drunk will I have to be for you to beat me at GoldenEye? OH YES I WENT THERE.

Andy

I don’t know, but it’s a good thing it’s at your mom’s place (no, I’m not going there), ’cause 1) you shouldn’t be driving in such a state, and 2) I’m not cleaning up the puke. :-P

Ask Me Weekend #5: Hello, tech support?

Why the hell is it that everytime I try and do something “simple” to my comuter it takes me 10 -12 hours to get it too boot again? Now Wait DON’T ANSWER that one. :)

– K4

OK, I won’t.

Ask Me Weekend #5: Why Rochester?

Question: Why Rochester?
Answer: Because ________ (fill in the blanks)

– Kirsten

Because I’m a masochist who likes subjecting myself to harsh winters and lake effect snow?

I’m in Rochester right now because that’s where my job is (a very good job, too), and it’s close to Toronto, which means I can see Yvonne a lot. I haven’t completely ruled out moving some day, but I wouldn’t consider going anywhere without having a job lined up first.

Ask Me Weekend #5: How’s my sweetie?

State of the Love Life Address. ;)

AtlantiCat

Yvonne and I are doing quite well. She’s got a month and a half of school left, then she walks across the stage in June. Then we start looking at what paperwork and process is involved in her immigrating to the United States and becoming a legal permanent resident. Combined with finding a new place to live this fall (I was hoping for a townhome, but an apartment seems more likely, from some of the things I’ve been reading in listings), and this will be a busy year. But it’s another year with my sweetheart, so I’m gonna enjoy it. :)

Ask Me Weekend #5: Answers forthcoming

Weekend’s been rather busy, I’ll post my responses to your questions this week.

Ask Me Weekend #5

Ask Me Weekend #4: Filler material

What’s a cubit?

– K4

It comes after a peebit, and before an arbit.

Is everyone too busy Christmas shopping to read blogs this weekend (and if so, did you get me something nice)?

Ask Me Weekend #4: Lumberjacks

How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood cuhck could chuck wood?

– K4

About enough to fill the bed of his Chevy pickup.

Try a harder question next time.
