A year ago March 29th, I started my (very enjoyable and rewarding) government job as Senior E-Learning Consultant. I am lucky to work in a great team dedicated to furthering the learning of all 60,000 members of the Ontario Public Service - the second largest employer in the country.
In a few days I will be wrapping work on our latest e-learning module, a completely rebuilt Orientation to our initiative. I have been the writer/director/producer of this project and was smart enough to engage diligent and capable consultants to help me deliver on time and within budget.
Soon the course will be behind our firewall - click here for a sneak peek.
Time for dinner and Idol on Fox (well, CTV) ;-) haikugirl

WICKED was Wicked!
Last night I had a great evening: a delicious dinner at Reds with lelizard and then off to the Canon Theatre to see the musical Wicked. AWESOME! The "untold story of the witches of Oz" was really wonderful - amazing cast and music, great staging and costumes. One of the themes has been haunting me all day. Too bad the Toronto run is already sold out. Thanks so much to my friend for scoring and sharing her awesome orchestra seats.
After a marathon Good Friday service at church today (over 2 hours!) we rented I (heart) Huckabees and Napoleon Dynamite. The first was quite funny and interesting (with a soundtrack reminiscent of Magnolia) but the second was disappointing. I retreated upstairs to post because it got so tedious. Bed is calling but first a few haiku:
I (heart) Huckabees
existential comedy
cast of shining stars
life is too short for
Napoleon Dynamite
where is my refund?
Wicked was awesome
witches and people can be
good or bad or both

haikugirl welcomes you
welcome to my blog
technology as memoir
sharing thoughts online
Blogging is big and haikugirl has jumped in with both feet. On the recommendation of lelizard, I used blogger.com to join the weblog (i.e. 'blog') craze. Now I just have to get over my editing compulsion and relax when I click Publish Post.
I want to give you the latest news, views and photos in this blog - and offer a daily dose of my urban haiku. Feel free to send me your comments or haiku. Remember:
the haiku form is
5 - 7 - 5 syllables
always on 3 lines
Tomorrow night I am going to see Wicked with lelizard and whenever we've called for a dinner reservation the place is booked. MAN that's annoying! Like when people walk in front of you... slowly.
Anyways sweet dreams my lovelies and talk to you online tomorrow!
