So, being a single person, I don’t often go to Costco. I mean how can a single person really eat a Costco-sized amount of anything on their own? But most of the people I work with have families, so I’m always hearing about all the awesome things they get at Costco. Like hummus that is […]
So, as I mentioned yesterday, I went to the dentist. When I started seeing the orthodontist to get my braces, I also decided to switch dentists, both because my old dentist’s office is located in Vancouver near where I used to live (and that is oh so inconvenient for me to go to now) and […]
So I was driving home from the dentist tonight and was quite shocked to see a *giant* crack in the windshield of my beloved Zaphod Beeblebrox the Car. Like, *giant.* I know for certain that it wasn’t there in the morning when I scraped the ice off my windshield because, well, I was looking right […]
Clearly, someone is stealing time. A few days ago (or so it feels), I was jumping into the ocean for the New Year’s Day Polar Bear Swim and now it is somehow 28 days later. Since two weekends ago was my big birthdaystravaganza, I blocked last weekend off to stay at home ((other than my […]
Many moons ago, I saw a new story about a condition, known as developmental topographical disorientation (DTD), in which, essentially, people innately have a terrible sense of direction. In said news story, they informed viewers that you could check out the website of the neuroscientists studying this disorder – the aptly named gettinglost.ca ((I *love* […]
So last night was my big Bethmas celebration. I mean, I celebrated my Bethday in a variety of ways throughout the week – like with cupcakes and Indian buffet dinner on my actual Bethday and by buying myself a wicked pairs of boots. But last night was the big party, what with it being a […]
Since the shoe buying ban of 2010 is now over, I am free to yet again indulge in my love of new footwear. And since it was today is Bething Day – the Bethmas equivalent to Boxing Day – it was only appropriate for me to take advantage of the awesome Bething Day sales. Thus, […]
Thirty-four years ago today, in the town where my parents lived ((and still live, actually)), there was a blizzard. And my then-very pregnant mother said to my father, “Jack, you better shovel the driveway, in case the baby comes early.” And so my father shovelled that driveway, in a blizzard, just to be sure that […]
So I went in on Wednesday to get my braces adjusted. Specifically, they took out the existing wire and put in a thicker one. As well, this thicker wire was longer so that the brackets on my lower back molars could be including in the tooth moving fun, as they were not attached to the […]
When I first created my list of 101 things to do in 1001 days, Dave praised the fact that there were very few “gimmies” on the list, but suggested that #82 (go to bed every night for a week with all the dishes cleaned) would be an easy one to knock off the list. And, […]
