OMG, totally the best thing ever! I was SO excited to find a Moncton roller derby group on FB a few weeks ago. We’re just starting up (we’ve only had 2 practices), but there’s lots of girls signed up, and so much enthusiasm! I ordered my roller skates, and got them last Wednesday I think it was. I’m totally wobbly on them, haha. But, we have some really excellent coaches that work us HARD in practice (I swear on Sunday, my first practice, I thought I was going to die LOL). But, I love skating, and have been going out and skating almost every day.
We have a web site too! MuddyRiverRollers.com
The rest of the derby girls are super awesome! They’re all so sweet. It’ll suck when we have to start bouting and smashing each other up, hahaha.
Check out my pic. Badassed eh? hehehe

Found this handy web page today, with a list of public parking lots in Moncton, including a breakdown of what they’re going to cost you monthly, daily, or hourly. Very handy to have since the city started booting people’s cars! Speaking of parking, there is also a rumor that SMS parking is coming to Moncton. That would be sweet! Just pay for parking with a text message.

I create, and just “do”. But, I am also intrigued with the technical aspects of things. I love when art and science collide. Such is the case with this amazing Digital Graffiti Wall (be sure to watch the vids!), created by Vancouver based design company Tangible Interaction. They make all kinds of interesting and mind blowing techie toys. The Graffiti Wall was at the Olympics, and will be at the Maker Fare this weekend in California’s San Mateo County. If you live in the area, GO! Maker Faire is a festival of arts, technology, music, indie crafts, etc, etc, etc. If I was on the west coast, I’d be there.

Check out this totally cool caricature doll of TV’s House MD lead character Gregory House. Created by Etsy seller rina278, this doll totally captures the essence of House. From his stubble, to his intense blue eyes, this doll is perfect! Well done!
