It’s February, typically the coldest month of the year. This year, it was actually cold and it was actually winter. We had the largest snow storm in Toronto within the last 5 years. I was lucky that it didn’t affect me much, and I still commuted to work without much difficulty. Then all the snow melted when we had a couple of above-0°C day, before another snow/slush storm hit us towards the end of the month. The groundhog predicted an early spring and I saw some squirrels running around and some sparrows flying (I guess they were fooled by those couple of warm days).

I spent the last half of this month reading about and setting up my own corporation. I think if I have to do it again, it won’t take up a lot of time, but getting my head wrapped around the things I have to do, finding the best approach, and doing them took up time. There are a lot of little things to do, some in areas that I’m comfortable with (technical things and getting new accounts) and some in areas which I didn’t know too much about (accounting, banking). There’s a lot of things left to do so this work will extend into next month.

I’m still playing Happy Street but I’m nearing the end. They released a Chinese New Year edition which kept me busy for awhile as I had to collect and craft the items necessary to unlock the special content – but now I’m almost at a stage where I’ve acquired all the premium content and nearing the level cap (at level 33 out of 35). I also have lots of supply of ingredients so the game is almost in maintenance mode for me – I just need to do a bit every day to collect premium currency. I guess I’ll have to wait for the next special update (Easter?) before deciding whether I should play it heavily.
