I have callouses on my hands from driving. Seriously. I guess my tender little hands aren’t used to all the friction I’m now getting from holding onto my steering wheel for ~1.5 hr every day. Oh, those heady days of being a bus girl. So, does anyone know where I can buy some driving gloves? […]
I have a really good registered massage therapist, but she’s just not that into me. For a while now, I’ve been going to an RMT in Kitsalano that I really quite like. Unfortunately, I can’t get an appointment with her in the evenings or on the weekends. Apparently, she has “regulars” who book up all […]
Somehow, I’ve managed to keep this plant alive for more than a month: I’m pretty sure that’s a record for me. My other plant, which I received about aweek after this one is also still alive, but it’s spent the past week on vacation in one of my coworkers’ offices as she has a window […]
So, despite the fact that I’ve lived here for almost nine years, I know surprisingly little about the geography of the Lower Mainland. This is in part due to my terrible sense of direction1 and in part due to the fact that I rarely left the City of Vancouver (save for occasional jaunts to North […]
Remember how my couch cloned a pen? While my desk at work is now in on the act – where once there was a single blue highlighter, now there are TWO: Seriously, I have no memory of taking two blue highlighters from the supply closest. Yet there are two blue highlighers on my desk! Although […]
So Zaphod finally got her new rear window today. When I brought her into the car hospital for a diagnosis last week, they confirmed that she did, indeed, need a new rear window. At first they thought that they’d have to have one shipped in from the factory (which is in France), but they were […]
You may recall that my apartment eats things. Well, I think it was doing that because it needed the nourishment for its latest endeavour: my apartment has started cloning things. Seriously. I woke up the other day and saw this on my couch: Thing is, I didn’t used to have two of those pens. I […]
I have all my notices from Facebook forwarded to my Gmail, because I’m way too lazy to actually check Facebook everyday. Today I saw this in my inbox: I think Monica is trying to tell me something.
So guess where I was when I saw this yesterday: A Dharma Initiative station? That’s what I thought when I saw it. In actuality, I was in a lecture hall at UBC, where I was invigilating my class’s exam. Seriously. This is what you find in the desk at the front of the room for […]
I love tea. I drink a pot of tea pretty much every night. It’s something of an after dinner ritual. This is my tea pot: Let’s talk a closer look, shall we? Yup, you saw that right. It’s *full* of cracks. So I really do think it’s time to splurge on a new teapot. [poll […]
