Guidelines for removing or keeping facebook friends (some of which belong to myself, some to others):
If you walk right past me in the mall, and don't say hi - we are no longer facebook friends.
If I am too lazy to type 'Happy Birthday' on your wall on your birthday - we are no longer facebook friends. If you get deleted from my facebook friend list on your birthday, this is the category you've fallen into. If your birthday has passed and we're still facebook friends, I'm sorry I didn't get to write 'Happy Birthday' on your wall. I'm actually sincerely sorry - I try my best to keep up with these things.
If I avoid an aisle in the grocery store because you're in it and I don't want to interact with you, we are no longer facebook friends.
Any others?

The Office
I have so much to blog about just sitting up there in my head. When there's too much to say, I get overwhelmed and have a hard time getting it out.
Strangely, I've had a rather action packed life lately. I think I caused it myself though, as I think I do on occasion when I feel like things are getting stale. When you're bored, why not buy and sell a couple of houses? Or maybe you'd rather build a house? Take a new course?
What ever happened to re-arranging furniture when you get a little bored with your everyday life? ;-)
One of the many things that's happened lately is the change in my job, or at least my work environment. Recently, my office has moved from a very old office building to a newer office building. From a big cubicle with my own air conditioner and a window that opens, to a 7x7 cubicle with a nice view of a gorgeous church over my shoulder but no window of my own.
With the new environment comes new duties. I don't think I'll be doing as much Oracle work anymore, which I'm alright with. I'll now be working with web and communications tools, taking me back to my roots and allowing me to use my multimedia degree. I'm very excited about the new beginning, and a little bit sad about what is ending.
In the interest of blogging being about sharing some of our lives, I took some pictures of my new cubicle. Now you'll all be able to picture me there, typing, sighing, and giggling at all of you.
This first one is a picture of the full cube, as you would walk in:
This is what I look at all day:
Vive le beave! My stuffed beaver, Bud Gnawwood:
This needs no words:

Just Call Me Dex
If you watch Dexter, you'll know that he's a serial killer who only kills serial killers
I like to think of myself as the Dexter of the road.
I like to play this game every once in a while when I'm driving. If I see another driver on the road who is just being a general pain in the butt to everyone else, either by driving really fast, tailgating, constantly changing lanes - you know, just generally being a bad driver. When I see a driver like this, I LOVE driving them insane on the road.
I got to play this game today. There was a guy driving up one of the busiest streets in Fredericton during a pretty busy time. He's driving a huge SUV and swerving back and forth between lanes, trying desperately to get a couple of feet ahead.
Perfect. My kind of annoying driver.
First chance I got, I cut him off. Then I drove painfully slow in front of him, while keeping pace with the car in the next lane so that he couldn't possibly get past us. He was losing it. I was extremely happy about this.
Steve and I pull off the road into our exit to the mall. High fives all around
Saw the crazy driver in the mall a few minutes later.
Clearly, he must have been in a HUGE hurry.
