8 random things about me - A meme

May 19th, 2008 | 5 Comments | Posted in Nonfiction by Chris Pommier

Looking in the wrong end Recently, Crystal at Big Bright Bulb, a blog chock full of great advice and insight for small business owners and entrepreneurs, tagged me with a blog meme that’s been making the rounds. I was flattered because it makes me feel a bit more like I’m part of the blogging community. The ideas is that someone comes up with a post, writes it, and “tags” a few other people to write a similar post. Everybody reads the others’ posts, and comments on them. Links are exchanged in a friendly way, everybody has fun, and then we move on with our lives.

So, this one is simply a list post of eight random things about me that you may, or mat not, know. I’m supposed to tag 8 other people at the end, but I don’t know 8 people who blog. So, I tagged three people at the end. I guess I really need to stop lurking on all those great blogs I read. I hereby resolve to comment more.

A whole year? And, upcoming ….

January 28th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Travel by Chris Pommier

So, it’s been an entire year since I last posted to my old blog. I’ve since moved the whole mess to WordPress, which took me weeks to learn and tweak and set up. Finally, here it is.

Oh yeah, and I’ve gone to Costa Rica. I’ll be posting some of what I learned traveling there for 11 days.

Our itinerary

From the San Jose airport my partner and I bussed to El Castillo located near the southeast shore of Lake Arenal, where we stayed at the Hummingbird’s Nest. The nest night we stayed at the Arenal Observatory Lodge as close to the volcano as you can safely get. Then, Monteverde and Santa Elena, back to San Jose, and finally Hotel Plinio in Manuel Antonio, one of the most gorgeous places you can visit in Costa Rica. If you need any advice on those areas, leave a comment below, or email me at chris [at] chrispommier.com.
