In my ongoing1 coverage of this story, it is my duty to inform the public that Belinda Stronach and Tie Domi have broken up. You heard it here first. Unless you’ve already heard it somewhere else. 1And by “ongoing” I mean the two times I mentioned it a year ago. →Read more
FRUSTRATION!!!!! So I get home from a lovely camping trip and discover that my internet connection is out. I’ve been internet-less for over a day because Mother Nature apparently didn’t pay her internet bill and there is no internet in the middle of the backcountry.

On the bus on the way to work today, it occurred to me that I am wearing the same outfit that I wore out clubbing two Saturdays ago. Same tank top, same skirt. Same necklace even. The only difference is that I’m wearing sandals instead of my beloved boots. I’m not sure if this means […] →Read more

I’ve been wanting to do the Chief for years, but carlessness, among other things, have meant that I’ve never done it before now. It was a wonderful sunny day (likely the only one we’ll get for the […] →Read more
Apparently I’m allergic to the antibiotic that the oral surgeon gave me. As evidenced by this nasty rash that appeared on my back and shoulders on Wednesday. Wednesday being the day I took the last dose of antibiotic. My doctor’s theory is that the glucocorticoid that I was also on was suppressing the allergic reaction […] →Read more
Just saw this ad in the “free” section of Craig’s List: Hey everybody, I am the unlucky owner of a brand new red trampoline which I now believe to be cursed. Due to a recent injury concerning the trampoline I will be giving it away for no charge. Warning : the trampoline is cursed. Please […] →Read more
So, if I were going to show off a new shirt to everyone I know, a shirt that pretty much looks exactly like a shirt I already had, but in a different colour, I probably wouldn’t first make them watch a 5 minute video showing all the many different kinds of shirts I’ve worn over […] →Read more
