Now, I may have yelled “Turco, you dirtbag!” many, many, many times during the first round of the playoffs. But in truth, it was always when he’d made some amazing save, robbing my beloved Canucks of much needed goals. You won’t often hear me say something positive about an opposing team, but even I have […]
Today, I ran into a woman that I have known for over 6 years. I was walking down a hallway in a building on campus (I was there for a workshop) and noticed her in a room that I was passing by, so I smiled and said “hi.” She smiled and said “hi”, but then […]
Shout out to my boys in blue! I nearly had a heart attack watching tonight’s game! It had been very frustrating to watch my boys lose the last two games, where they could have ended the series, but didn’t, resulting in tonight winner-take-all matchup. Then it occurred to me what the problem was… my chocolate […]
A few items of business. Because I know you all love business, right?

Like Sarah, I’m sure that everyone is dying to know why I know about coffee-ground vomitus. What’s that? You really aren’t all dying to know? Well, too bad, ‘cuz I’m going to tell you anyway. Actually, it’s not nearly as exciting a story as it could be. But I think it has to do with […]
Coffee-ground vomitus. In happier news, my boyfriend scored the game winner in OT to give the Canucks a 2-1 lead in their series against the Dallas Stars. Go ‘nucks!
My friend Erika recently took a very, very cool job. She is the resident biologist for Wavelit.com – a company that streams videos of wildlife to the net so that you can watch animals in real time, undisturbed, in their natural habitats! Hired by Wavelit.com CEO Arthur Griffiths*, Erika is responsible for all things biological […]
In my continuing efforts to disparage all things Calgarian*, I would like to point out one of their many grammatical errors: I would love to stay and chat, but there is playoff hockey to go and watch! Don’t wait up! *I would also like to point out that the Blogger spellchecker’s suggestion for Calgarian was […]
