Welcome to Rose's Playground

Nothing too serious to see here.

About Me

My name is Rose :) I've been actively making websites on the Internet since around 1998. I live in Canada, I have a family (husband, kids, dog, very vanilla.) and I write software for a living. Or actually I currently manage software developers, but historically I was also one myself.

I enjoy reading - my fav genre is fantasy but I'm up to try whatever - tinkering on the web, hiking, running, spending time with my kids, training advanced dog obedience and skillls, and vegging out and doomscrolling on my phone.

About this website

This is a website about nothing! It does nothing! It provides minimal value. Glad you're here.

I set it up becuase I stumbled across Neocities and thought it was cool and reminded me of being a teenager (I am now in my late 30's... lets not talk about this...) and of all the ridiculous websites that I both created myself and that other people made back then.

I figured I'd write a bit of html, throw together some css, play around, make something silly and fun.

I'll keep adding on to it until I get bored, at which point this site will sit quietly, unmaintained, for all eternity... or at least until I feel inspired again.

If there's something you want to see here, Send me an email!
