Thank you for the rec on callisthenics! I will look into this.

My favourite sport is sailing, raced for many years. I’ve never been a fan of team sports but racing is different. Might be the possibility of death lol. I love swimming, raced competitively as a kid, but can’t handle the chemicals at the pools and the cold of the ocean so don’t do that very often. Climbing and bouldering are the next favourite, my husband and I climbed a lot before my daughter was born. She, with my husband, is getting into it now so I went with them and wrenched my shoulder quite badly so haven’t been able to get back.

I know I need to incorporate movement and strength training into my life more (would definitely help with not getting injured!). A comment below mentioned callisthenics so I’m going to look into that. Also yoga!

West coast of Canada and in my daughters high school they have French, Spanish, and Hul’q’umi’num, which is the local First Nations language. Which I think is pretty freaking cool. Shes taking French though, since as she says, we are a bilingual country.

I lived overseas growing up so my choices were french, Spanish, and Arabic. I could have been fluent in Arabic! But nooooo, I took spanish. Think I speak spanish at all?

Omg, thats my boss. Everything is in Sync, why do we need physical backups?

Same here! I stopped reading my rss feeds for a few years (not sure why) but when I reloaded them to a new reader I was so happy to see QC still there chugging along. Why would anyone hack them??

This is a very particular beer, but the “after hauling and securing a boat at 2am with your boss because you’re a tide dependent yard” beer. Those were my favourites.

Seriously though, anytime we had a haul outside of regular working hours we’d all go sit in the back after and have a beer or pop or whatever and shoot the shit. It was nice times.
