Cabin Fever is not at all like Disco Fever.

I haven’t blogged in a bit, mostly due to an overwhelming amount of life getting in the way. However, Jeff ‘n I had some interesting stuff going on this last week, so here I am to chat about it. First … Continue reading

The old lady had a thing about my underwear.

It was a very creepy experience, let me tell you. I’ll  just say first, I’m not very weird, shorts-wise. People always say it’s the banker who sports a g-string or the supermodel who prefers granny-panties, that sort of thing. If … Continue reading

I’m not safe at home… or the vet office, apparently.

So, Rumble hasn’t been feeling so hot. Nothing horrible, just a bacterial infection on his skin that has him itching and gnawing on his paws. Being the responsible (read: fretful) and sometimes overprotective (read: occasionally I will threaten passersby who … Continue reading

I’m a big believer in gun control…

… especially when I’m the one in control. Yeah, I know, haha. Seriously, I don’t think guns should be accessible by the general public except in the most controlled circumstances, and I HATE sport hunting. That being said, when I … Continue reading

So yeah, I was recently the victim of a vehicular kablammo.

My neighbourhood SUCKS when it comes to crazy drivers. In the summer of 2009 a truck turning right on the corner downstairs hit and killed a toddler in a stroller. It was really horrible, but not because it was a … Continue reading

Insomnia = I’m gonna barf

Oh God, was that a bad idea.  I’m feeling so sick right now. I couldn’t get to sleep tonight.  We went to bed at a relatively reasonable 11:00, but after tossing and turning for a couple of hours I finally … Continue reading

Jeff wakes up next to a seizing howler monkey. Let’s see if he spots the difference.

If you have ever known me at any level, be it in passing or as a lifelong close relative, you’ll recognize my one eternal constant. I ain’t quiet. It’s just the way things go with me- I share.   A … Continue reading

Christmas Greetings From The Clueless

I thought I was being responsible and ahead of the curve, seriously.  If there’s an inquiry later I want to go on record as stating that I blame Jeff for everything. Anyhoo. I worked really hard last week and managed … Continue reading

A Day Late:

Among the other brain-rotting shows on late ’70s television like The Incredible Hulk, The Six Million Dollar Man and The Love Boat (don’t judge) I used to be addicted to The Bionic Woman.  The tale of a young tennis pro … Continue reading

Evil, evil junkies…

So, I was walking the dog yesterday morning when we were jumped by a couple of crackheads. It sounds much more dramatic than it actually was, really. We were under the overpass at Carrall St. by the time Rumble did … Continue reading

Wildlife and technology and cumen.

Blog post Last night I dreamt that I was the world’s smartest sea otter. I knew I was the smartest sea otter in the world because I’d mastered videoconferencing. I knew I’d mastered videoconferencing because apart from being the smartest … Continue reading

Fringe Division is in the hizzy.

I was walking down Granville Street after work this afternoon on my way to pick Jeff up at his office when I came across this: The guys behind Fringe were downtown shooting a scene that looked like a follow-up to … Continue reading

You have a dirty mind.

Jeff and I, despite having been together for going on six years, are still in love.  Obnoxiously so.  Our friends have even made a point of bringing it to our attention.  Still, we persist.  Like most couples, we have our … Continue reading

Not the tip I could have used at the time.

Another random story from my past. 1995: After my first failed attempt at university, I shamelessly begged money from my mom and travelled out to Vancouver.  I wanted to create a life as far from Ottawa and my family as … Continue reading
