It's March Break!

The Quadruplets I Never Had

The kids are off school for the week. It's a melange of work and play for the MacIsaac-Vacon clan.

Today, with Rob and Arch off to Toronto, Angus and I went into Picture This for a few hours of officin'. Angus didn't think the connection to the internet at the office was very good. His flash games weren't smooth ... But, I let him know that my productivity was what was holding up his play. I had big files uploading via ftp and they were eating up all the bandwidth.

We cut out in the afternoon to go see an IMAX movie - Fly Me to the Moon - with a friend, Brian. Since it was at the Montreal Science Centre, it was interesting to see a little bit of what goes into making IMAX movies. The movie was too short, but Brian tells me that 45 mins is typical for one of these movies. The movie itself as ok - the story was a bit strange in a few parts, and the ending was oddest of all, but it was cool to experience the 3-D animation. (Sidenote: words like "whimsical," used in the movie description, are always harbingers of a strange, slightly unpleasant bent.) Angus thought it was ok, too.

Thursday evenings, I'm off to my French class. Brian and Angus hung out together, made pizza, and got out the camera for a few fun shots, like the one you see here. A fun day of work and play.
