So I’m trying out this Skribit thing ((as usual, for the record, I have no affiliation with the Skribit people. Shockingly, no one wants to pay me money for pimping their products to my 17 blog readers)). It’s a little widget thingy I’ve put on my sidebar where you can write anonymous suggestions of what […]
So here’s the thing about Movember – I hate hate hate facial hair on men ((I also hate it on women, but that’s a whole other blog posting)). Seriously, to me the playoff beard is the worst thing in existence because it takes hockey hotties and turns them into hockey not-so-hotties. And I am aware […]
People who I follow that are NaBloPoMo’ing it all up in da house: Sarah Kalev Chris ((though she blogs every single day even when it’s not NaBloPoMo)) Tanya Peechie The Badger If I’ve forgotten everyone, leave a comment and I’ll add you to the list.

I can’t believe that I didn’t even realize that today is 20/10/2010!! Fortunately, my Official Statistician & Tattoo Consultant, Dr. Dan, brought this momentous occasion to my attention via The Twitter ((he, in turn, was informed by Dr. Steph, so really I also owe Dr. Steph props for making sure I was informed of this)).

And speaking of Groupon, there’s a new group coupon kid in town: Ethical Deal. They are like Groupon in that they will be offering mega-discounts on things, but their schtick is that they will be offering deals only with “green” companies. Will they actually be green or is this just a greenwashing of the group discount idea? […]
I think I’m in love with hot yoga. I mean, it’s only been four days since I started, so we are still in that “honeymoon phase” and maybe I’m willing to overlook hot yoga’s short comings, like how I have to get up at 5 a.m. to be there for the 6 a.m. practice, which […]
Beth can’t come to the blog right now because she’s in a sugar coma, having discovered a store in Surrey that sells vegetarian marshmallows.
