In keeping with my desire to be a year-end cliché, here are my goals for the new year (in no particular order): Sleep. Sleep is always the first thing I sacrifice when I take on too many jobs, which I do a lot. I’m going to take advantage of the fact that I’m not teaching […]
I’ve decided to go totally cliché this year. I’m talking New Year’s resolutions and swearing that I’ll get back to exercising and eating well and losing that 15 lbs that’s been plauguing me. So, keeping with my transformation into a cliché, I figure the week after Christmas is a good time to take stock. Like […]
So, I totally wrote this on Thursday night and was completely sure that I posted it. Apparently not. Anyway, better late than never, right? Today was the first day of class. And for the first time in many, many years, I’m not teaching a brand new class! ((which just so happens to be #37 on […]
So I’m a bit of a perfectionist. And the speed and sleep deprivation that accompanies blogging every half hour for 24 hours straight does not lend itself to perfection. So there are some things from my Blogathon – things I couldn’t remember in the haste of blogathoning – that I feel the need to rectify. […]
OK, I’m diverging from the book topic for a bit now. Don’t worry, all you book-ophiles, I’ll talk more about books later. Right now it’s time to do an update on my 101 in 1001 days list! Remember how I’m trying to do 101 things in 1001 days? Well it’s been 195 days and I’ve […]

So today was the big day – my chance to skate at GM Place *and* have my picture taken with Taylor Pyatt! (You know you are jealous!) This is me, heading down the steps to go skate at GM Place: This is me skating: I have to say the ice is pretty damn nice. (Comparable, […]
So, after posting yesterday’s blog posting, which I was totally sure I’d alreday posted, I got to thinking “Why the heck didn’t I post it?” And through my mad investigatory skills, I made a horrifying discovery: I missed a day of blogging! I’m pretty sure that what must have happened was that I wrote that […]
It’s my one year anniversary of moving from Blogger to WordPress.com. So, now I’m moving to WordPress.org. It’s true what they say: WordPress.com is just a gateway platform to the harder stuff. In fact, I’m all set up to make the shift. I’ve got a domain (which I’ve actually had for a while), I have […]
Only two days into my 1001 days and already I get to cross something off my list! 43. take Tod to a Vancouver Canucks game Last night I took Tod to his first ever Vancouver Canucks game. Shocking, I know. He has lived1 his whole life in BC, most of it in and around Vancouver, […]
