First of all, I’ve got to give a shout out to my friends who ran the Vancouver International Half Marathon yesterday — congrats to Danielle, Laura, Ali* and Jordy! I went to see if I could catch a glimpse of them crossing the finish line and, even though I was there when they all finished, […]
… and I’m still in the tub! (25 points to whoever gets that obscure reference!) UPS has notified me that my glorious, glorious shoes have an ETA of May 11. Kinda sucks that I have plans to go out on May 10 and was hoping that I’d be able to wear them on that occasion, […]
I don’t wanna do my work! [stomps feet] And you can’t make me!! I have forbidden myself from watching any clips from Jon Stewart, The Colbert Report or I-Film until I’ve finished revising my lit review chapter. You’d think that the looming deadline of needing to have the whole thesis revised by May 19 would […]
I really hope that’s true. Because if it is, I’m going to be the strongest person EVER! I’m moving. I hate moving, but I’m doing it anyway. Moving to a cheaper place – not too far from where I am now, but much more affordable than my current place. It’s actually just a summer sublet, […]
Things that have caught my attention of late, in no particular order: Canadian-born economist John Kenneth Galbraith, a Harvard professor who advised several Democratic presidents and wrote one of the top 100 non-fiction books of the 20th century, died at the age of 97. Marc Crawford was released as the head coach of the Vancouver […]
OK, this blog entry is RIDICULOUSLY LONG, due to my complete inability to be concise and my ability to be amused (and think everyone else will be amused) by the simplest things. But I promise you it will be worth reading (or at least skipping down to the part where the drinking happens). So Friday […]
As per Courtney’s request, I did, in fact, conduct more ARM research while in Seattle this weekend. And, also, as per Courtney’s request, I will blog about it soon. But in the meantime I just wanted to post a link to this story I came across while checking out the playoff scores on the NHL […]
Since my enablers* have returned back to their native Ottawa, I have had to seek out other adventures in my attempts to continue to avoid doing any work. So I’m going on a road trip to Seattle with Master Shalu** and a bunch of her friends this weekend! I’ve never been to Seattle before***, so […]
Sarah and Dave have left the province =( They are sadly missed. We had a wicked good time while they were here, as Sarah & Dave TOTALLY ROCK!! If you ever have the opportunity to hang out with Sarah and/or Dave, I highly recommend that you do! They are two of the nicest, most generous […]
First of all, I have to give a shout out to my friend, Shalu, who successfully defended her Master’s thesis yesterday! Yay!! From now on, we must all refer to her as “Master.” Here’s a pic of our extended lab group from the post-defence, celebratory lunch. In other news, Sarah & Dave are here! Yay!! […]
