The Internet’s leading authority on radicalized geese
I’m listening to the Canuck game and my future husband, Marc Chouinard, has just gone to the dressing room partway through the 2nd period with what appears to be a leg injury of some sort. I hope it’s nothing serious! Never fear, Marc, I will kiss it better for you! In other news, apparently Condi […] →Read more
It has proven to be far more difficult to get Air Canada to change my last name on my Aeroplan card than it was to get my name changed on my passport. What the hell is up with that? I went to my old grad student office to check if there was any mail there […] →Read more
It’s the day that we’ve all been waiting for! Health Canada has released the new version of Canada’s Food Guide! Before:After: This thing has been in the works for years. The previous incarnation, officially called “Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating,” was released in 1992. In 2002, Health Canada thought, “hmmm… perhaps we should update […] →Read more
So, I just joined a new group on Facebook: “If I were an enzyme i would be DNA helicase so i could unzip your genes.” Snicker. I never could resist a good science joke. So, in this Facebook group I discovered the Nerd Test. And I just had to know my nerd score. Read it […] →Read more

Um, well we’ve got a bunch of canned foods because canned beans […] →Read more
Two things about January: I did, in fact, post something every single day in January. And twice on the 10th. The only game in the entire month of January where the Canucks didn’t get at least one point was on my birthday. In other news, my future husband, Marc Chouinard, scored his second goal as […] →Read more
As you can see from the “Events” list on my Facebook sidebar thingy*, I’m a busy girl for the next week. So I thought I’d share with y’all some of the exciting things I’m doing. And for one of them, you can even play along at home! Next Thursday, I’m going to “Danielle and Beth’s […] →Read more
After much yammering about it, I think it’s high time I changed my blog title to something non-thesis related. But I’m still not 100% sure what to change it to. So I’m trying one on for size – and I may try other ones in the coming days, sort of a multiple blog-ality disorder. Or […] →Read more
For what seems like the millionth time, the wireless at my place is on the fritz*. So I called Telus to get them walk me through how to fix the damn thing… again. They have a new feature where you don’t actually have to stay on the line to hold your place in the queue. […] →Read more
