  I just ordered one of these tees. I am pleased as punch

• Whoops

  Saturday, February 27th, 2010

  I haven’t been blogging much. Life’s been busy, things have been happening, haven’t really had much time to write about my life lately. That said, I’m going to try a bit harder to keep this up. For now, it’s been a busy couple of weekends with the Olympics here and whatnot.  It’s been pretty crazy [...]

• Life Observations

  Friday, September 11th, 2009

  This was passed on to me this morning by my friend L.  I had a good giggle at most of them and figured I’d share.  One I’d like to add to the list is “why is it that the short work week following a long weekend feels longer than a regular work week?” Happy Friday [...]

• Happy 5th Birthday Lois!

  Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

  My niece Lois turns 5 today.  How I wish I could be there with them to celebrate! She’s a big fan of High School Musical, so to make this birthday memorable, I went to JibJab.com and created something specifically for her… Check this out: Try JibJab Sendables® eCards today!

  I’ve been playing around a bit with some WordPress stats plugins, including an RSS feed subscriber count. I just had a look and see that I have 13 (!) RSS subscribers. Wow. So for those of you that find me interesting enough to subscribe to my RSS feed, thank you Links: Feedstats Quickstats WordPress.com stats [...]

• Public Service Announcement

  Monday, June 15th, 2009

  If I am talking on the phone and you are following close behind me, begging for money or to use my phone, talking loudly at me and attempting to touch me to get my attention, you *will* get yelled at until you leave me the fuck alone. I now return you to your regularly scheduled [...]

• Wizard’s Fifth Rule

  Monday, June 15th, 2009

  I’m the kind of person that takes people’s words to heart.  If someone says they’ll do something, I generally expect them to honour their words.  More than once I’ve had my eyes opened to the fact that not everyone does what they say they will do.  Maybe I’m too trusting? Perhaps I’m naive? The book [...]

• Sundays, photography and bicycling

  Sunday, May 17th, 2009

  Rode my bike outside today for the first time since the winter hit. I say outside because I bought a trainer a few months ago and have been using it fairly steadily, but even with Arrested Development and Battlestar Galactica as entertainment, there is only so much bike-riding inside a girl can do. Photos are [...]

• First post

  Saturday, May 16th, 2009

  I’ve decided to go with this theme for now, because I love sunflowers and the idea of hacking a WP theme is fun, but will require more attention than the few hours I have to spare this afternoon. For now, I leave you with one of the first photos I took with my Nikon D90:

• Fleetwood Mac

  Saturday, May 16th, 2009

  Fleetwood Mac was in town last night as part of their Unleashed tour, and I was lucky enough to snag a ticket.  There was a bit of concern as to whether or not they were going to play, as the band had already canceled their Edmonton and Calgary shows.  I was relieved when I heard [...]
