Fours

Posted on by

I didn’t actually get tagged with the Fours meme, but I had it mailed to me. Pretty much every feed I’ve subscribed to has included it as well. And on a Friday after a company party when you’re waiting on the green light to promote some code fixes, you’re inclined to say its the same thing.

Four jobs I’ve had

  • Wiring light fixtures for display in a lighting store
  • Digitizing Dufferin County maps for a GIS department on a 386 Hyundai “workstation” with a 4X6 rollup tablet
  • Managing the business, computer and current event sections at an independant book store. I place the first order for WIRED magazine there; the second issue they’d released
  • Slinging coffee for the Second Cup by University of Waterloo.

Four movies I can watch over and over

Four places I’ve lived

Four TV shows I love to watch

Four places I’ve been on vacation

Four of my favorite dishes

  • Roasted fig and vegetable pita with fries and jalepeno mayonaise from Cafe Maroc in Toronto
  • Black bean wrap with tempeh from Fresh
  • Fresh, fire-roasted olives, goats gouda and baguette on Saturdays, all fresh from St Lawrence Market
  • my wife’s fantastic I-can’t-believe-its-not-veal-parmesan.

Four sites I visit daily – I’m pulling this from my OPML

Four places I’d rather be right now

  • Playa del Carman, Mexico, where I passed the most relaxing four days of my life, drinking $10 peso beer, eating at Cafe Press and 100% Natural, and chilling at the hostel around the corner from the beach
  • Byron Bay, I’ve never been, but my wife talks it up a lot
  • Brighton, England
  • Home, on the couch, reading.
