  • Happy 33 1/3 Birthday To Me!

    I expect that you will all play your favourite LPs on your phonographs in my honour today.  Failing that, I expect you are dressed head to toe in vinyl.

  • Random Thoughts

    Since I don’t seem capable of writing an entire cohrent blog posting of late, here are a bunch of random things that have been floating around in my brain lately: When I moved, I had my Internet service changed from my old apartment to my new apartment.  The service was changed, but not the billing […]

  • Don’t Look Here. Look Over There!

    I’m taking a page out of The Bloggess‘ book for this posting.  Sure, I’m not writing anything on this blog today, but if you just can’t get enough of Dr. Beth, then check out stuff I wrote elsewhere recently: Article about tanning for teen science website Posting about maternity/paternity leave & postdocs Some stuff about […]

  • My Fabulous New ‘Do

    I got a phone call from my hair salon about a week ago. It turns out that the new stylist (Halina), who had been hired to replace my former stylist (Amie), who had left hairstyling to become a medical technician, has broken her ankle really badly and had to return to Ontario to get rehab […]

  • Where Do You Keep Your Spare Car Key?

    The other day someone, who shall remain nameless, lost my car key.  I had visions of having to get a co-op car, drive to my place in Surrey to get the spare car key I have safely stowed there, drive all the way back to Vancouver to get my car and then drive my car […]

  • I Like To Build Stuff

    Not really big stuff – I’m not nearly that skilled ((my sister took woodshop in high school, so she’s got much more in the way of building skills than I do, as I chose “typing” as my business or tech credit (can anyone say “easy A+”?). I learned the basics of building stuff – e.g., […]

  • My New Mattress!

    My new mattress was delivered today! It’s very, very comfy – I’m really looking to going to bed tonight (which I’ll be doing as soon as I click “publish” on this posting!) Every time I walk into my bedroom now, I have the urge to jump on my mattress! I also got my couch today ((long […]

  • New Home Update

    As I mentioned before, I’m working towards having a grown up place. I feel like I’m there with the kitchen – I’m something of a kitchen gadget freak and since I inherited the kitchen table and other kitchen furniture, all I had to do was unpack my many boxes of dishes and bakeware and other […]

  • This Week

    I’m tired just thinking about this week.  This afternoon I’m taking a ferry to Victoria for an all-day Stats Canada workshop I’m going to tomorrow.  Then I return to the mainland on Tuesday evening and first thing Wednesday morning, I drive to Hope for a full-day of stuff there.  Then Thursday I have to go […]

  • (no title)

    I cleared out the last of the stuff out of my old place today.  Though I’d moved all the stuff I was keep to my new place a couple of weeks ago, I still had a pile of stuff to take to a thrift store and some old computer stuff to take to Free Geek.  […]
