I received this in the mail yesterday
Guess who I’m not voting for in this election? →Read more
Stupidest Tongue Injury Ever
Picture it. I’m sitting in my office, chewing some gum and, out of nowhere, I bite my tongue. But not only do I bite my tongue – oh no, that wouldn’t be ridiculous enough. I bite my tongue so hard that it bleeds. Profusely. You’d think that with 31 years experience, I’d be able to […] →Read more

BarCamp 2008
Spent the morning in the WordCamp section of BarCamp Vancouver, a session talking about all things WordPress. As you can tell from my URL, my blog is on WordPress.com and I have been very happy with WP ever since I moved over from Blogger back in January. But the more of these WordCamp type events […] →Read more
Hockey Hotties – Now With Photos!
In preparation for this afternoon’s hockey pool draft, I decided I should figure out what position all the hotties on my list actually play, given that we need to have one goalie and to pick a certain number of defenseman. And then I thought I should have photos of these boys handy to help me […] →Read more
More new shoes
Shocking, I know. My friend Therese is in town for her cousin’s kids baptism, so we met up for dinner (poutine at The Templeton) and shopping (for shoes, of course). First we went to the Aldo liquidation outlet on Granville and I found a super hot pair of red boots. Marked down to $70, plus […] →Read more
Hockey Hotties
This Saturday I’m going to be participating in a draft for a hockey pool. Since I pay little to no attention to teams that aren’t the Canucks, I’m not overly familiar with non-Canuck players. In fact, unless someone is a mega-star a la Sydney Crosby, I’ve probably not heard of them. Thus, my draft strategy […] →Read more
Hockey Team #2
Last night was the first game of my Aggie hockey season. And it felt so good to be back on the UBC ice1. And wearing my Aggies jersey! And doing the Aggie slide2! I started my hockey career at age 263, when I was in grad school and, after watching how much fun the man […] →Read more
O, woe is me to have seen what I have seen, [now] see what I see [slightly less good]!
I have been remiss! I had a one month post-laser eye surgery check-up a full week and a half ago which I fully, totally, and completely meant to blog about and then I fully, totally, and completely didn’t. The reason my one month post-laser eye surgery check-up was blog worthy is… my vision has regressed! […] →Read more
Titles With No Posts
I’m usually pretty terrible at naming things. But every once in a while a name for something just pops into my head, without the something to go along with it. Here are some blog posting titles that have landed in my brain, but without a blog posting to go with them: Dr. Bloglove – Or […] →Read more
