It’s better than the post I wrote at the liquor store. Really.
Out of sheer curiosity (and to justify the expensive small-sizing from laptop to netbook) I’m writing this from the Starbucks on the Square formed by Nelson and Mainland Streets in Yaletown. I usually look down my nose at people who … Continue reading
He’s been fixed, really.
We hiked Rumble down to the dog park this weekend as part of his ongoing workout schedule. He’s supposed to be getting excercise, but as you can see, Rum had other ideas on how to burn calories: It’s an awkward … Continue reading
Size matters, but in a totally different way here.
Jeff & I will be travelling to Ontario this summer, and we’re not going to be able to take our laptops. On top of that, I’m starting to write more and do other computer-related stuff on the go. So, what … Continue reading
A weird place for art…
I went to pick up Jeff this afternoon, and on our way home we cut through the giant parking lot on West Georgia and Cambie. There were only a few cars given the time of day, which was the only … Continue reading
Wouldn’t he feel a draft?
I was leaving the Nestor’s Market at Abbott & West Pender this evening when I was confronted with this: You’d think this guy was an average junkie/crazy of the DTES, but when I passed by (in a rush) I saw … Continue reading
Pat Morita & Lady Gaga & A Big Thing Of Weed
I’ve mentioned before about the pot culture here in Lotus Land, and how Jeff and I only participate by our proximity to other people. We don’t really judge people who toke, it’s just that I’m wildly allergic to marijuana, and … Continue reading
The changeover.
So, this is Vancouver. If you’ve lived here, lived near here – or just lived, you know Vancouver is a magnet for weirdos, fruitcakes, crazies or the otherwise generally ‘nanners. This should come as no surprise. After a long day … Continue reading
Spring is in the air – as well as the smell of dirty dog.
Because of Rumble’s new exercise routine, we had to haul him out to the dog park on Nelson this morning. First thing this morning. Really early. Really. Well, it was like 9 am. Sue me, it’s the weekend. Rum always … Continue reading

Everybody loves a chubby puppy – except Air Canada.
Wow, sorry for the dry spell there – our hosting servers had a collective brainfart and screwed up our websites’ addresses, and nobody could find our stuff. The problems seem to have been fixed (thank you again, Mario @ Casting … Continue reading
Whoo! Positivity and beer = the road to recovery.
So it’s become apparent to me that I need to suck it up and quit kvetching about being sick. I’m actually feeling a lot better – my head’s still stuffy as hell but my throat is back to normal and … Continue reading
Sick as a dog…
I started coming down with something on Thursday night and now I’m not so much worried that I’m going to die as I’m worried that I’m not. Anyways, I was staggering around on Friday afternoon, waiting to pick up Jeff … Continue reading
Don’t I look like someone who says no?
This was a weird one, even for Vancouver. I was on my way to work this morning on the Skytrain, and some sketchy guy got on the train at Main Street. For those who don’t live here in Raintown, Main … Continue reading
Our weekend in motoring and panic.
This weekend our child dog Rumble was high maintenance – literally. We took him out to North Vancouver to get his hair cut at Fetch, and Jeff got some practice for when he gets his re-licensing road test. Then today … Continue reading
A must for every fanboy’s wardrobe…
… stored carefully where they live: in their parents’ basement. This is from Golden Age, a comic book store down on Granville Street that deals in every damn comic book related thing ever made, I think. Crazy stuff. Two words: … Continue reading
