Photo by B Rosen I’m sorry for making my first post in a while a rant. I just spent a few hours driving around Vancouver trying to figure out an upgrade for Cheryl’s iPhone. Let me sum it up: When buying or upgrading iPhone hardware with Rogers in Vancouver, you have 3 options: Go to [...]

How to disconnect from your blog and write less

Ritchie — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 22:19:58 +0000

Photo by josef.stuefer. Yea, I’ve been a bad blogger lately. I haven’t really been keeping up with things here at macapinlac.com. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve thought about it (on a few occassions) and felt a little bit guilty that I haven’t been writing. The reality is that I’ve been a bit preoccupied. With what you [...]

Learn to Cook in Vancouver

Ritchie — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 17:00:43 +0000

This last weekend a few friends and I went into the Dirty Apron cooking school / shop and gave our culinary muscles a flex. Cheryl and I haven’t really done much and it was very much a date thing. The class started at 11am and went on for a few hours. The goal was to [...]

Mackenzee and Me I’m actually not sure if all of you (the 3 people who still read this blog) know that I went on a 3 month long parental leave. I started my leave in April 18th, and it just recently ended. I’m very sad to be away from my little baby girl. However, during [...]

We’ll miss you.

Dearest Ruby, You know, you were a pain. You pee’d and poop’ed everywhere, and you seem to always get into things that we always told you never to go into. You barked loudly at practically anything and everything. But you were family and despite all of this, we all loved you dearly. I can’t believe [...]

On a positive note

Mackenzee in Mexico Before I leave for another technology disconnection. I wanted to leave this blog on a positive note. My last post was so negative and I don’t want people to just think that this was me. You see, the reason why I haven’t been posting much here was because I’ve been on parental [...]

It’s disappointing and downright embarrassing

Ritchie — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 07:56:06 +0000

Photo by: refreshment_66 Dear Fucking Idiots of Vancouver. People who rioted last night, you’re a disgrace and an embarrassment and I’m not just talking about the few people who decided to tip over a truck and lit it on fire. I’m also talking about the stupid idiots who started jumping on top of the wreck, running [...]

Online Disconnection

I recently went on a mini-vacation. I was out of the Internet for about a week. During that week, I went to a place without my laptop (but I took my iPad). As you probably could’ve seen, my website went away. For a small (brief) second my email went down as well. You know what [...]

Not a toilet not even a urinal

Ritchie — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 17:42:07 +0000

I don’t usually post about other people in here, but this really just irks me to the core. As most of you know, we’ve recently moved over to our new house. Our new house has big windows which are really a good thing, except when it faces neighbors like these. Our big kitchen window faces south and [...]

Like most Internet addicted people who maintain a blog like me generally go through their RSS feeds and read. There usually isn’t much to write about but this Monday morning there were 3 little awesome jewels. Ones that were pretty cool to share. http://lifehacker.com/5747371/what-we-use-kevin-purdy-edition – Most people who read my blog probably read lifehacker. Since [...]
