MacKay Update
OK, so I just watched the news at noon and the reporter referred to Peter MacKay as “a hunk.” I’m pretty sure that is a sign of the apocalypse. →Read more
Random Ramblings
So I went to an Aggie dinner tonight. Despite being an Aggie for 6 years and never having gone to an Aggie dinner while I was actually a student, I went to one tonight. It was a lot of fun – there were a tonne of people helping out making the dinner. Plus, if you […] →Read more
Happy Birthday Daav!
Today is Dave’s birthday. So I thought I’d write a little tribute to Dave. Dave is the reason that I started blogging. Dave sends me links to funny cartoons. Dave has two of the cutest and most fun cats I’ve ever met. Dave knows how to mix a mean rum & diet Coke. Dave shows […] →Read more
Run for the Cure
Remember back in May when I said I was going to find a nice 5 or 10K race to run in (after watching the Vancouver Marathon and feeling like a total slacker)? As I footnotedly predicted, that idea didn’t last too long. But the idea has re-surfaced! Danielle told me about the “Run for the […] →Read more
Weekend of Weirdness
Remember when I said that guys don’t hit on you on public transportation here in Vancouver like they do in Toronto? Well, we can scratch that off the list of differences between here and there. I was transferring from one bus to another yesterday morning and this guy totally starts chatting me up. He’s all […] →Read more
The times they are a-changing
Due to popular request*, I have updated my Blogger profile. I’m not sure I’ll stick with this pic for any length of time, but I just found that I had this one and thought I’d throw it up there for a bit. It’s from when I gave an address at the banquet at the Let’s […] →Read more
A proof is a proof because it is proven
Check out what I got to pick up today (click on the pic to enlarge it): Now you don’t have to take my word for it that I’ve completed my PhD – I actually have proof! 100 points to the first person who emails me a Photoshopped version of this letter saying that they have […] →Read more
Addendum
OK, so when I started writing my blog posting yesterday, there were two things I meant to write about that I totally didn’t include. I think it may have been because I was multi-tasking (read: trying to chat with too many people at the same time as writing my blog). Or perhaps I was just […] →Read more
Weekend at Rachel’s
While not as slapstick hilarious as Weekend at Bernie’s, I enjoyed a lovely long weekend at Rachel’s. We went with some other friends to the Royal on Saturday night – we had been on the guest list at Plaza, but apparently you can only get into Plaza if you are on the guest list, which […] →Read more
Perhaps I Spoke Too Soon…
What would possibly possess someone to chat up a girl who is innocently walking by the house they are working on, ask for her number, call her, ask her to go out the next day*, give her their phone number and say “Call me tomorrow and we’ll figure out what we want to do,” and […] →Read more
