The Internet’s leading authority on radicalized geese
No time to actually write anything of substance today ((I was in a day-long meeting and now I’m scarfing down a coffee and a bagel for dinner before class starts)), so I thought I’d share this awesomeness, a screenshot of which I took yesterday: →Read more
I can’t believe my niece turns six today!! Such a big girl! I haven’t seen her since our trip to the Dominican in January, which seems like *ages* ago. Happily, I’ll be spending my Christmas holidays with my family in Ontario this year, so I’ll get to see her really soon! I can’t wait! In […] →Read more
I’m trying to get my marking completed tonight, so this will be brief. Does anyone know what the hell Rihanna is saying in the first line of “Only Girl”? When I first heard it, I thought she was saying: “I want you to love me, like I’m a hot guy“ But I’m reasonably sure that’s […] →Read more

Today, this is how I ordered my coffee: “Tall caramel brulee, with soy, half-sweet, extra-extra hot, with whip.” How annoying! But you see, yesterday, today […] →Read more
So 151 days ago I started the 365 photo challenge – and have taken a photo of myself every single day since then ((well, I haven’t taken today’s yet. But I still have time)). A disproportionate amount of them are in my bed, since many days I only remember to do it at the end […] →Read more
photo © 2009 Zhao ! | more info (via: Wylio) So yesterday I was reading Kalev’s blog and followed his link and then another link and ended up watching this video about Inbox Zero. At the start of the video, Merlin Mann, the Inbox Zero guy, talks about his very first email account. And it […] →Read more
So I got this letter from my credit card company yesterday: Click photo to embiggenate Since I’m so awesome at paying my credit card off every month, they want to up my credit limit. Now, based on new laws, they can’t just jack up the limit without you noticing anymore; they have to ask your […] →Read more
