  • Out Out Damn Report

    This is me and the report I’ve been working on for the last 87 months. It’s a report about how great I am, and all the the wonderful things I do. In triplicate. And writing it has prevented me from doing all the wonderful things that I do. But now, mercifully, it’s done and has […]

  • 12 Bars of Christmas – the Sequel

    So, I was wondering all day why no one commented on my engaging tale of the 12 Bars of Christmas. I get the comments on my blog emailed to me, so I didn’t look at the blog itself – just didn’t get any emailed comments. And just now when I went to write a new […]

  • Procrastination

    Sure, I could be working on, say, planning the course that I’m teaching in January, about which I know very little thus far1. Or, say, developing the activities for the class of grade 3-5 students that I’m working with in January. Or even, say, doing my Christmas shopping. Or hell, I could be getting ready […]

  • He’s #1!

    who has a better save percentage? Originally uploaded by steveleenow Props to Roberto Luongo for his team record-breaking three shutouts in a row!! Due to his spectacular on-ice performance, I am obliged to offer to have his babies.

  • (no title)

    I hate numbers. I hate crunching numbers. I hate writing reports, with minuscule page limits for the actual report and multitudinous pages of appendices, to be submitted in triplicate. I am SO glad that I have vacation days next week! You have NO IDEA how excited I am about that. Also, I don’t care what […]

  • I don’t care what you say, I like Quatchi

    So, they unveiled the 2010 Olympic mascots yesterday and the general sentiment I’ve been hearing is one of three things: they have nothing to do with Canada – there’s no maple leafs/beavers/loons/moose they have nothing to do with Canada – they’re “too Asian”1 what Olympic mascots? But I don’t care what the naysayers are saying2. […]

  • Beth in a Box

    When someone has a giant box in their house, it’s only natural that they will try to see if they fit in that box. The answer, my friends, is yes: In fact, there’s plenty of room inside that box – you could have a tea party in there! So, I took this photo, but before […]

  • Unending Jest

    Someone who rides the bus and does most of her reading on said bus and thus must carry her book to and from said bus probably should not get herself into reading a book this size: The apple is in the photo to give you a sense of the size of the book. Granted, it’s […]

  • Products That I Just Don’t Understand

    On my recent flight to Vegas, I found myself flipping through “SkyMall” – the catalog for those who can’t last a whole three hours without satisfying their need to purchase stuff. And this catalog was rife with items that I just can’t imagine anyone actually purchasing. Things like: Seriously? Do people really want to brand […]
