e-mail woes

I have a strong suspicion that my at shaw dot ca e-mail accounts are not working. I don’t actually have any proof of this, both test e-mails I sent myself this morning seemed to work. This has done nothing to alleviate my strong suspicion though. You see, I have received absolutely no e-mail from either … Continue reading e-mail woes

Cookin’

I cooked, and it didn’t come out of a box!!! Last night for dinner I cooked up a halibut filet (cover in flour & lemon pepper, fry in olive oil until cooked through) – that was the tastiest thing I’d eaten (that I cooked myself) in quite a while. Today I made something new and … Continue reading Cookin’

I can’t write

I’m usually really quite good with converting abstract thought patterns into chains of words that most people understand. Some days, however, it seems nearly impossible. Today is one of those days. That is not good, because I need to write something that resembles a cover-letter so that I can attempt to procure myself some “gainful … Continue reading I can’t write

Buyer Beware

During the course of our adventures yesterday, me and the boyfriend decided to stop by a&b sound (Metrotown location) to finally replace his long-ago stolen car stereo. Over the past year he’s spent a huge passel of cash there on home audio equipment, and been treated really well. Unfortunately, that streak ended abruptly yesterday. The … Continue reading Buyer Beware

Wasted

Despite the fact that this was all set up to be one of the most productive days I’ve had in a long time, I feel like it ended up being a total waste of a day. I started with actually getting up at the inspiring hour of 7:00am. This is a rarity for someone who … Continue reading Wasted

Bob the Builder

So my name’s not Bob, but I’ve been seeing that horridly annoying commercial on TV every day about Bob the Builder (whom I’ve never heard of – obviously he’s no Spongebob Squarepants or Zoobomafoo), so I figured I’d get a lot of nutty search engine hits from people looking for him on the inter-web. Speaking … Continue reading Bob the Builder

The Plan

While cleaning out some drawers, I found this little gem, author unknown. Enjoy. The Plan In the beginning was the plan And then came the assumptions And the assumptions were without form And the plan was completely without substance And the darkness was upon the face of the workers And they spoke among themselves, saying … Continue reading The Plan

Friday Five

I’m waiting for a phone call… I guess I’ll do this to kill time. 1. What drinking water do you prefer — tap, bottle, purifier, etc.? At home I happen to drink water out of my Brita. When not at home, I’m not too picky (not like we live in Mexico or something). 2. What … Continue reading Friday Five

Happy Girl

I started off the day with a GREAT interview! It lasted an hour and a half – just talking – and I came out feeling that I really gave my best. Now all I can do is hope that my best is what they want! I then spent a little time having tea with Devon, … Continue reading Happy Girl

Suit Yourself

I went shopping with Devon this morning to find the “perfect suit” and came home with three!!! Turns out Fairweather was having a big sale – buy the jacket, get the pants or skirt free! And the suits were so beautiful, and fit so well (which is really rare with my body) that I figured, … Continue reading Suit Yourself

Mornings

Some nights, for no good reason at all, I wake up approximately 5 hours after I’ve gone to bed, and cannot get back to sleep. Normally this occurrs at around 3:00 to 4:00am, and normally that really sucks. But there are those few lucky days, where I got to bed a little later, and the … Continue reading Mornings

Thanks

Somebody’s positive vibes worked at least a little bit – I just got a job interview. Now all I need is the interview for the dream job I applied for yesterday and I’ll be *really* happy. So keep ’em coming folks! Continue reading Thanks
