As you may or may not have noticed, I was not at the Ivanhoe on Friday night. A family thing came up, and I couldn’t make it. But all evidence points to the fact that NOBODY CARED. There has not been one comment or e-mail or phone call or anything to indicate that I was … Continue reading Miss Me?

So I told people that I would make myself available for some sort of festivity. Looks like there’s a bit of shin-dig going down already, so I will probably attend that, and If you’d like to give me a pat on the back, or buy me a beer (or preferably both) that would be lovely. … Continue reading Tonight, Tonight

Someone buy me this. Pretty please. Even a small donation to the cause would help! Continue reading I need a vacation

Any which way that … Continue reading huh.

I was out shopping yesterday at Winners, and found the bestest tankini ever. Any woman will understand that a good swimsuit is worth its weight in gold. Thankfully this one was Winners priced. If you saw me break down in the middle of Sportchek and burst out of the changerooms with a cloud of tears, … Continue reading Bikini Weather
