While I exceeded my 2015 goal of running 800 km by 34.7 km, I did it despite barely running in November and not running at all in December! As much as I enjoy running, I felt like I needed a little bit of a break from it. I’d been doing it with only one little break since […]
Done a bunch of laundry, including folding it ((Which is an extremely rare occurrence for me!)) Picked out my outfits for the week ((Something I haven’t done in *ages* but which, when I do it, I find makes my mornings so. much. smoother.)). Made my lunch for tomorrow. Set up my coffee maker for the […]
So today my sister and I went to the spa for pedicures because we are going to my sister’s best friend’s wedding on New Year’s Eve and I needed to have toenails that match my fancy dress. We may also have consumed some wine while we had our fancy pedicures. #RoughLife
Translink is in the process of introducing the Compass Card, which is a new fare card system for riding transit in the Greater Vancouver area. In the past, we’ve used a paper-based honour system – you either had a paper monthly pass or paper tickets (that you validated at a machine) and then just walked […]
So I’m on vacation now until the new year. My last day of work for 2015 was actually Monday – it was a bit weird to work a one day work week, but essentially, what I did was take how many vacation days I had left to use this year ((As we were encouraged not to […]
At my last dentist appointment, my dentist gave me a referral to a periodontist because apparently my gum is receding on one of my molars, so she thinks I should get a gum graft. I went to the Perio appointment yesterday morning and as I drove up to the office I had an uncanny feeling […]
So apparently I’ve rediscovered that I have a blog. Sadly, I totally forgot that November is NaBloPoMo ((National Blog Posting Month.)) – the month where you are supposed to publish a blog posting every day – until about 2 days ago, which was 11 days to late to realize such a thing. I have, however, […]
Translation of the title (assuming that Google Translate translated it correctly): My 13th half marathon: not the result I was hoping for, but I figure if I write this title in French it will sound more impressive. I was hoping to have called this blog posting “Lucky #13” and to be writing about how I’d finally run the […]
Every so often, I like to post some of my favourite tweets, because Twitter is a huge pain in the butt when it comes to finding old tweets (you have to just keep scrolling and scrolling!) and I have a terrible memory, so I need my blog to have all the things on it. Anyhoo, […]
When my mom and sister were visiting, I said “I *never* run into people I know”, which I always find surprising because I feel like I know a lot of people ((I have friends and acquaintances from 6 years of PhD school – including tonnes of people I met through the science outreach that I did – […]
