January
Congratulations to Massimo for winning the First Annual VWXYNot? Readers' Choice Comment of the Year Award!
February
Did anyone else see the Canucks-Leafs game on Saturday?!
March
I'm currently (intermittently, half-heartedly) tidying my inbox and desk after the latest round of grant applications.
April
One of my best friends from the UK should be landing in Vancouver in a couple of minutes, with her lovely hubby and adorable two year old son!
May
My parents are here!
June
As you may remember from an old post, since I moved to Canada in 2002 I've spent much, much more time worrying about bears than actually encountering them.
July
My boss is a very busy man whose trainees sometimes have a hard time getting his attention.
August
I'm back from my trip with more photos than I can reasonably fit into a blog post, so please bear with me while I attempt to cull the collection!
September
Yes folks, it's time for another fun quiz from my puzzle-a-day desk calendar!
October
New archive post!
November
First of all, many thanks to Chall and ScientistMother for hosting the last two updates!

Spotted on a whiteboard in a PI's office, written in massive letters (colours as in original):
Book chapters and reviews are for people with no data - NEVER SAY YES
(actually, this was the entire post).
Right, now let's see your versions!

ReplyDeleteFor someone who likes melancholy air, your first sentences are relentlessly upbeat and charming!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I think it's great that you have such poignant openings of your posts. (btw, november reminds me to ask - who's doing this week?)
ReplyDeleteI briefly looked at mine and thought "that's a bit too depressive" and especially compared to yours but I guess I'll bite the bullet and put one up. It's soon time for the yearly cleaning anyway ;)
Hermitage, I like a little melancholy air, sometimes :)
ReplyDeleteAlso: there were plenty of "grants suck!", "I suck at hockey pools", "the Canucks are out of the playoffs, my life is over", "my parents are STILL here??!!", "my ass hurts after that stupid bike ride", "England are out of the world cup, my life is over", "are you guys moaning about quiz formats AGAIN??!!", and "holy fucking crap there's a fucking BEAR in my campsite" posts, that just happened not to fall on the first day of the month :)
Chall, I just thought mine was kinda boring - a lot of meta stuff, an archive post, two hockey pool updates (ScientistMother is supposed to be doing this week's, I'll do next week's). It's a shame none of the Olympic excitement made it in (although it's definitely evident in the final list of comments that will be going up for the vote this weekend!)
I've put it up now. Here: http://chall-dreams.blogspot.com/2010/12/my-twelve-months.html
ReplyDeleteBoom! Here you go.
ReplyDeleteRicardiblog highlights 2010.
Thanks for the easy post idea... man do I ever need to post more.
Yay, two more!
ReplyDeleteRicardipus, you should take a look at Chall's final entry :)
