Saturday we did the “Earth Hour” thing, turned everything off (computers, printer, etc) and went for a walk. We were happy to see that some big corporations did take part of it. We noticed that the big Q of Hydro-Québec was turned off, as well as the logo of Complexe Desjardins, even City Hall had turned down their lights. Here’s a picture of it we took while on our walk. It was too dark to actually take pictures, go figure!
I was surprised not by the dark buildings, but the friggin’ cold! It didn’t feel like spring, yet again! Yesterday was a beautiful cool day. But it still gets cold at night. This morning more crap came down, and the roads are, again, snow covered. This is ridiculous! I’m wondering if this is how the dinosaurs felt when the Ice Age started… Every morning, looking out, and wondering when in hell the snow would melt and if spring was on its way? Is it Global Warming or Cooling that’s coming our way?
As you know (if you’re a regular reader) I’m doing the Relay for Life again this year, and I’m happy to see how well people are responding. I’ve raised my fund raising goal twice already! This is fun for me. I just love doing things like that!
Must run now, laundry to do, some work as well… Have a good one!

Glad you had a relaxing weekend.
we did the earth hour thing. except people kept forgetting to take candles into the bathroom. there were a lot of crashes.
I tried spying on my neighbors during Earth Hour but none of them were home! How rude of them to deprive me of an hour's worth of entertainment. ;-)
marius: Thanks!
kara: I'm told it's harder for guys to pee with a candle... ;-)
