Ass-ist

Last year, I proposed that if one is getting all up in the face of the goalie and then your teammate scores a goal, you should totally get an assist. After all, you were instrumental in that goal being scored, right? At our game yesterday, my lovely, talented, and amazing over 45 year old linemate […] →Read more

BC Premier #31: The Premier Who Did Not Write The Crucible

Hey, look at me, writing my BC premier series posting for the second week in a row. w00t! Name Arthur Daniel Miller or possibly Daniel Arthur Miller ((depends if you ask Wikipedia or The Canadian Encyclopedia. The Government of BC biography page only refers to him as “Dan Miller,” so they are no help)) Born: […] →Read more

The Bet

photo © 2009 Chris Breikss | more info (via: Wylio) On Thursday, I got a very expected email from my dad. For, you see, tonight my beloved Vancouver Canucks play the my father’s Toronto Maple Leafs. Every year when our two teams play each other, we have a bet. The loser has to buy a […] →Read more

Happy Birthday, Mom!

My mom’s birthday is easy to remember – it’s the day after Remembrance Day. It’s also easy for me to remember how old she is, because she was 30 when she had me and since I’ll be 34 in January ((omg. That sounds very old. Has anyone seen my cane??)), that means she turns 64 […] →Read more

My Bed Is Tall. I Am Not.

So, my bed is a wee bit high for me – I have a pretty tall bed, combined with a really thick mattress and a thick box spring. So when I climb into bed, I’m really having to *climb* into my bed. Until now. I’ve had this wooden block for years. My mom bought one […] →Read more

Yeah, I’m Still Talking About My Braces

So I ask for suggestions of what to blog about and this is what you readers come up with: Dirty, dirty! Well, first of all, we’ve already established that I’m not supposed to chew on bones, nuts (and pencils). The instructions don’t, however, prohibit sucking on things. I’m just sayin’. You know, sucking on things like […] →Read more

Your Suggestions Wanted

So I’m trying out this Skribit thing ((as usual, for the record, I have no affiliation with the Skribit people. Shockingly, no one wants to pay me money for pimping their products to my 17 blog readers)). It’s a little widget thingy I’ve put on my sidebar where you can write anonymous suggestions of what […] →Read more

BC Premier #30: Glen Clark

Hey, remember a million zillion years ago when I was working on a series of postings about BC Premiers, posting about one premier each Sunday? Yeah, apparently neither did I. But with the convergence of needing to come up with a new blog posting topic every day this month AND the big news of Gordon […] →Read more

Movember

So here’s the thing about Movember – I hate hate hate facial hair on men ((I also hate it on women, but that’s a whole other blog posting)). Seriously, to me the playoff beard is the worst thing in existence because it takes hockey hotties and turns them into hockey not-so-hotties. And I am aware […] →Read more
