  • In Disguise

    I hear they don’t take kindly to vegetarians in Calgary, so I’m going undercover. Check out my luggage tag: I’m pretty sure I’ll fit right in.

  • Calgary-bound

    Tomorrow, we leave for Calgary. We’ve spent a chillaxed few days in Vancity, doing such things as drinking Dirty Girl beer and getting our hair cut. I know, party animals, right? We also patronized the following establishments: The Naam*, The Fringe Cafe, The Reef, Cactus Club**, The Eatery (where we got to have my favourite, […]

  • I <3 Hydration.

    So I ran 18 freaking kilometers today. All the way around UBC campus on SW/NW Marine Drive and all along the beaches there. In 2 hours, 1 minute and 43 seconds. I couldn’t believe it. Last week it took me 2 hours and 5 minutes to run a mere 16K. How did I improve so […]

  • New ‘do

    For awhile, I’ve been talking about getting a new haircut. In fact, way back in November at the dinner after my graduation, I was talking about it. At that time I said I wanted to lightening my hair – sort of around the same colour as Danielle’s. Then a friend of mine suggested I get […]

  • And so the streak ends…

    I didn’t blog yesterday. I meant to, but we were out and about and having fun and getting up to no good and it didn’t occur to me until 11 pm that I hadn’t blogged. And we were at a UBC Pride Beer Garden, with no computers nearby. Oh well, it was a good run […]

  • Western Canadian Hijinks

    As I write this, Sarah is in a cab on her way here from YVR. We spend now until Tuesday in Vancouver (I have to work on Monday & Tuesday, but I have tomorrow, Sat & Sun to goof off), and then on Tuesday night we fly to Calgary, where our plan will land within […]

  • Thesis Data Cloud

    A while back, Darren mentioned wanting to make a data cloud for a presentation he was giving at Northern Voice – he wanted to find a tool that he could enter all the responses he’d gotten on his Why Do You Blog survey to generate a data cloud. This got me thinking about how data […]

  • I’m Not Making This Up!

    My cousin’s wife, Christine, is pregnant and at a family party on the weekend my sister was explaining to my two-year old neice that Christine “has a baby in her belly.” My neice then looks at my dad and asks, “Does that mean Grampa has a baby in his belly too?”

  • I <3 Taylor Pyatt, again.

    So, I went to the Canucks game last night and, being in the second row (i.e., up close and personal with the boys) I am *officially* re-in love with Taylor Pyatt. He’s even more beautiful in person! His piercing blue eyes are to die for! Imagine how beautiful our babies are going to be! I […]

  • Quick, But Legitimate, Post

    Did a lot of running around today. Both literally (i.e., 16 friggin’ kilometers!!) and figuratively (after my run, I had to shower, grab some fruit to get my blood sugar back up and water to re-hydrate, run off to a meeting for the study that I’m participating in, then back home, grab a quick dinner […]
