It’s my kitty cats’ 5th birthday today! Because I’m the worst cat mom in the world, I’m on the other side of the planet. Fortunately, they are cats and don’t know how to read a calendar, so I can spoil them when I get home and they won’t know the difference. Special thanks to their […] →Read more
I’ve been in Australia for an entire week and haven’t yet blogged anything! Usually I’d blog from the airport while I wait to leave on a trip, but when I was in the Vancouver airport waiting for my flight to Perth, by way of Hong Kong, I was frantically trying to get a reference letter […] →Read more
So I ran a half marathon last Sunday. And despite it being my second worst finish time of the 14 half marathons that I have run, it turned out to be the one that required the most perseverance and I am actually proud to have finished, yet a bit mad at myself for even having run […] →Read more
So, Andrew is something of a neat freak ((Given this, why he’s dating me is something of a mystery.)), ((He’s an accountant, so this is to be expected, I suppose.)) and suggested that perhaps I should clean my algae-adorned frog tank more often than once a century.

So I’m one week away from my next half marathon – the Kelowna Wine Country half. When I set my goals for 2016, I had big plans to really focus on my training to finally break the 2 hour barrier that stayed just out of reach in my races last year. But a series of […] →Read more
Hey remember that time that my Mom and my niece came to visit me? Of course you don’t, because I didn’t blog ((Other than to mention briefly that it was upcoming.)) or tweet/Facebook/etc. any of it while they were here because we were having way too much gallivanting (and perhaps spent all of our tech-related […] →Read more
It rained in Vancouver yesterday, so naturally everyone was all “WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET SUMMER?????” and then I was all “Um, didn’t we have like 2 weeks of straight sunshine? Haven’t we had summer weather pretty much since April??” And then I was like this: So then I decided to go to the […] →Read more
I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. In the next 37 days before I leave for Australia ((Holy crap, I can’t believe I leave in Australia for 37 days!!)), I have the following things in my calendar (in addition to, you know, going to work): a weekend hockey camp in Whistler a […] →Read more
When my dad was young, he and his brothers would go hunting with my grandpa. My dad’s older brother, Bob, used to say that if he died, he would be reincarnated as a duck and then one day when his brothers were out hunting, they would take aim at a duck, but would miss and […] →Read more
My exercise comes primarily in the form of cardio (i.e., running, hockey, skiing) and not so much in the form of strength training. I know that strength training is good for your health. I know that strength training would help me be better at my other sports. I know that toned muscles look good. Yet I generally […] →Read more
