3-clicks of separation….FROM WHITEHORSE!

12 April 2008 by YukonJen

The other day, I was learning Adobe InDesign for a short project at work. I needed to figure out the pagination. (Being a tech writer…I checked the online help first. I believe if you can read, you can do anything. But that can be another topic for another blog entry another time.) So…I couldn’t find …

I’m now asking other people questions…

8 April 2008 by YukonJen

As you may have figured out, I don’t have much of a love life–but that doesn’t mean I’m not a romantic. I am–HUGEGLY SO–although I’ve never admitted it out loud before. I guess that’s what blogging is all about–living out loud. So there. My name is Jennifer and I am a romantic. I started this …

Hello, my name is Jennifer. And I am a logophile.

18 March 2008 by YukonJen

Is there a 12-step program that can help me? I was looking for a word today. I couldn’t remember the exact word, but I remembered that it started with logo and it meant something about being focussed on words. I thought I’d blogged about it. So I looked on my blog, but I was scanning. …

You know the rule

16 March 2008 by YukonJen

Ok. Ok. I say. I guess that’s it. You know the rule. I was referring to the time we were eating dinner in Chena Luna and he told me about his friend who’d broken up with the girlfriend sometime last year, but after a few months, they were back together again. Well–I told him then. …

I’m normally a pretty smart person, really…

12 March 2008 by YukonJen

I’m normally a pretty smart person. Really, I am. I just don’t have a whole lot of common sense sometimes. I have a hot tub in my back yard that I haven’t hooked up yet. During the winter here, there was an awful lot of rain, and the tub was filling up. I felt I …

A very Yukon moment

10 March 2008 by YukonJen

From my Mum today: Hi All, Guess what we had in the driveway this morning? A big bull moose! Dad went out the back door to get a picture of it. When he saw Dad approaching , he turned and left and went up the road, cutting through the park just beyond our fence line. …

I don’t have a wife…

7 March 2008 by YukonJen

I had an interview last summer with a local company. I’d contracted for them in 2001 and 2002, but this interview was for a full-time position. I was a fit. I knew the engineering team. I knew the technology. I know technical writing. However, I also knew I wanted something more than being, “just a …

Two foreign guys walk by a soap shop in Healdsburg

7 March 2008 by YukonJen

As they are passing the soap shop, I hear one guy say–with a heavy German accent: Soap. His colleague repeats: Ja. Soap. That’s it. That’s all I heard. Soap. Ja. Soap. Somehow I just find that randomly funny.

Make-up text…

5 March 2008 by YukonJen

She swears by texting. She txts people all the time. It’s the best way she says, especially if you’re fighting with your boyfriend. It takes you all that time to compose that message on the keypad…then you can read it over before you send it…make sure it’s exactly what u wnt 2 say…then–only then–you send …
