  • I am, in fact, still alive

    This might be the longest I’ve ever gone without blogging!  I’ll write more about each of these things, but since I last blogged I have: gotten a haircut and colour with an awesome new stylist flown to Toronto spent time with my parents (for the first time in TWO YEARS), my sister, her bf and […]

  • Random Thoughts

    Why is there a best before date on blue cheese? Are we worried it might get mouldy? Things not to name your daughter if songs are portents: Diana, Beth, Roxanne.

  • 10/10/10

    Oh the joys of being in the early part of a millenium!  I’ve been able to celebrate 6/6/6, 7/7/7, 8/8/8 and the incredible 12:34:56 7/8/9, 9/9/9 and now 10/10/10 ((how sad that I didn’t have a blog until halfway through 2005, so I missed out on the fun of celebrating these numberlicious days from 1/1/1 through 5/5/5/))!  Only two […]

  • Sunday

    Had my first hockey game of the season with my main team tonight – it was a close one… we only lost by a goal. I had an awesome scoring opportunity where the other team’s goalie had played the puck, but it only went about a foot in front of her and as I was […]

  • Wanted: Sidewalks and Shade

    My latest complaint against Surrey: in many places, they only have a sidewalk on one side of the street. And it’s not like the sidewalk goes the length of the street on that one side – it will be a few blocks on the east side of the road, then a few blocks on the […]

  • The Ongoing Saga of My Hair

    So, remember how I’m on my third hair stylist in as many years, because my stylists keep leaving the salon I go to? Apparently there is a Defence Against the Dark Arts position-like curse on the job of “Beth’s hair stylist.” I called to book an appointment with Emily because my roots are absolutely atrocious, […]

  • Telus DOUBLE FAIL

    So, remember last week when I told you about how Telus had “generously” offered me a service that I already pay for in honour of my birthday on a day that isn’t my birthday? Well, every time I post something on my blog, a tweet is automatically generated with a link to that posting.  And […]

  • T-Shirt Cube

    So Kalev brought me this gift back from his trip to New York: The red cube is the present.  The apple is in the photo to give you a sense of the size of the red cube. It’s a T-shirt.  No, really. That teeny, tiny cube contains a T-shirt. And lest you think that’s just […]

  • The Quatchi Kid is Back!

    Hey, remember that Quatchi kid from Halloween? He’s back! Check out this adorable video! In related news, I have yet to see big Quatchi out and about during the Olympics.  And I soooo want my picture with Quatchi!  If anyone knows where I might find him, you be sure to let me know! OK, women’s […]
