… it might be delayed getting to me: That’s what the mailboxes in my building look like right now. I assumed some nefarious person had smashed into them for nefarious purposes, but apparently the mail carrier accidentally broke it and they had to send away for parts, so we aren’t getting mail in my building […]
Tonight was the last class of the course I’m teaching this semester. Since it was my first time teaching this class, it was a crazy amount of work and I am so, so, so, so, so, so tired. But I have to say that I really enjoyed teaching this class! The material leant itself well to active learning […]
Played my first (and second) game of hockey since my injury! As previously mentioned, my physio told me that once it felt OK to skate *and* it felt OK the next day after I skate, I was allowed to play hockey again. And since I felt OK on Friday after skating on Thursday night, I was […]
So I finally, after years of living in New West, went to the Canada Games Pool last night. My physio recommended that I try water running ((Yes, water running is exactly what it sounds like – running along a swim lane in a pool.)) as a way of being active while my hip isn’t 100% […]

I can’t think of any times off […]
I knew that one of the days this month I was going to phone it in on a blog posting. And today is that day. Too busy finishing up tomorrow night ‘s lecture to write anything substantive here. But I have something to write about tomorrow, so hopefully I’ve have the energy to write that one […]
I love writing. I’m not sure what it is about writing that gets me so excited. It’s almost like I have all these ideas whirling around in my head and I have to write them down to get them out. There’s something very satisfying about that. There’s also something gratifying about looking at something that […]
So, this. Again. *sigh*
Hey remember that time that I ran a half marathon while slightly injured and ended up a whole lot more injured and then went away on a vacation for 2.5 weeks so that I couldn’t get physio done for said injury and also walked all the kilometers on said injury? Apparently none of that was […]
