It’s Been A While, and I know I Promised…

… To blog more, I just haven’t taken the time to do it, I haven’t taken the time to do a lot of things lately, and I regret that.
I have a few excuses for that though and in my typical fashion I will list them out in Chronological Order.
After Chicago, I’ve been busy, but to recap: Chicago was Awesome, Lightspeed is an awesome Point of Sale product and should be used by anyone wanting to open a Mac-based boutique store of any kind. Except food/hospitality. I hope to go to the next Cert Camp in Montreal, but we will see.
Happy birthday to me; Officially 21 as of April 17th.
I Moved! So far I’m trying the Kits life and finding it very different than living in Yaletown. No drunken howlers. Yet. It’s been an experiment since May 1st.
And Now it’s June, and I’ve been busy at work, I’ve also been testing out some Beats Tours by Dr. Dre to see how they sound, I’ll have an update on them soon. And I will have a review for my new laptop bag: http://www.chromebagsstore.com/bags/laptop-bags/soma.html
Oh and to note that I was paying attention today: New Mac Mini: OMGHDMI.
I should have some stories to share, and stuff to talk about soon.
Goin’ to Chicago!

Well, I guess I should post this as I’m officially going now.
I’m headed to Chicago for some certified training for xSilva Lightspeed! This should get me Lightspeed 3.0 Certified and off to doing many an onsite for upgrades to 3.0 in Vancouver.
So if any of you out there know anything about Lightspeed and want to know more, shoot me an email, or leave a comment for me, and I’ll see about getting you in on the action. Else, if you want to start with the basics, check out the xSilva site.
