Occasional musings from a Left-coast Canadian ExPat in Oxford.
Edit: (2:25pm) I deleted the offensive post I was making reference to. Not because I think I should have to, but because it obviously hurt someone’s feelings, and the fact that it’s out there is much more important to that person than it is to me. So it’s gone. Which is one of the great … Continue reading Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
I must have the Creative MuVo Micro N200 512MB in Pink. It has everything I want in an mp3 player (player + FM tuner) with a few other features I’m sure I’d decide I couldn’t live without (record directly from any line-in device, from the FM tuner, or from the built in microphone) if I … Continue reading Help!

I spent 9 hours on Sunday baking with my momma. That could perhaps be the best thing to curb the usual cookie binge this year, … Continue reading Rip Out Hair Now.
I am the Christmas Superhero. Sometimes I wonder what the rest of my family would do without me, considering not one major gift-giving occasion goes by without me locating and usually acquiring the receiver’s ideal present. What happens when it’s time to give gifts to me? The family gets a detailed list, and my best … Continue reading Random Saturday Morning Content
