It never ceases to amaze me how quickly parents will start talking about poo
Last night was 4 hours of stats class. Today was 4 hours of stats, followed by 4 hours of Econ. Needless to say, my brain = fried. I’m writing this on my phone while Skytraining home, so I hope you aren’t expecting a masterpiece today. Instead, can I interest you in this bulleted list of random stuff?
- My table group in class today consisted of 4 dads and me. One of these classmates is a very new dad – his baby was just born on Thursday! And within about 3.2 milliseconds, the conversation quickly turned to poop. One of the guys asked me how weird it was to be at a table of guys talking about poop and the new dad exclaimed, “I would *never* have talked about this before!” And then they started talking about pee.
- A few people in class today remarked that I looked tired. Which is odd, because since we’d had a break between the end of core and this weekend’s classes, I’m actually more rested than usual. But perhaps I’m just exhausted from my nonstop coughing.
- I have a red coat that I absolutely love, but the zipper on it is not functioning right at all. It started off where it would split at the bottom, making it very difficult to undo. And just when I got good at jimmying it undone when it split at the bottom, it started splitting all along its length, which is really a rather inconvenient thing for a zipper to do. Anyone know a good seamstress? And what’s a reasonable price for replacing a zipper?
- And speaking of service people, I *may* have found a cleaning person, which I’ve been looking for since we moved to New West. I got a recommendation from a co-worker. Fingers crossed that it works out, because having a house cleaner will make me the happiest person in the history of ever! I will keep you posted.
- The Vancouver premier of Lace Bite, the documentary about the Longest Game of hockey for CF, was today. I’m choked I had to miss it because I had class. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to see it soon though!

I want a house cleaner too!
I know a wonderful seamstress not far from the PNE. My guess is that she would charge somewhere around $20-$30 or so. I can give you her #!
I went to Lacebite today but you seem to have been quite effective at avoiding the camera!
Damn. I wanted to be in the movie!
It would be great if you could give me the number of your seamstress!
Also, was I in the movie at all?
You were in it at the very beginning getting fit prior to the start, and again at the very end shaking hands. But I didn’t see you anywhere else. Hope also managed to hide nearly completely, but she says there was footage of her doing up her skates! I suppose it’s possible you appeared elsewhere but certainly not as much as KJ, Val, Erin M, Trish or Terri B!
My seamstress is Liway Garcia at (778) 861-4393.
Cool, thanks!
After reading the “STFU, Parents” blog for a few months, I am not surprised (warning – often NSFW! And it was a friend of mine who’s a new parent who pointed me to the blog…)
