It’s official. We Rock. The house of commons voted 158-133 to support same-sex marriage, making Canada the 3rd country in the world to make the unions legal at a federal level. And as much of a chump as I think Paul Martin can be, his quote on the issue sums up exactly how I feel … Continue reading Oh Canada! I do!
This one’s for mikey. Happy Marquee Monday! My cell phone contract isn’t up until October-ish… but I’m hoping to convince the fine folks at Telus Mobility to let me renew it a little early, because methinks it’s time for a new phone. A CAMERAPHONE. So I can take pictures like this. And this. And phallic … Continue reading Marquee Phone

Another ridiculously high standard brought on by one of my many dating disasters? I wish. I guess if I could pick something… perhaps try not to give your date a nosebleed? Truth is though, Ridiculously High Standards tend to fly right out the damn window when you’re smitten. Please send help. And common sense. ASAP. Continue reading Ridiculously High Standard #6
Shopping last night was a fantastic time. Sue and I conqurerd Richmond Centre and both came away with some great finds. I managed to spend more on a cheese knife, than a pair of jeans. To be fair, the jeans were on sale at Old Navy, and the knife is FANTASTIC. I obviously have my … Continue reading Fast Times
Ok, it’s not actually that bad. But it’s been a crazy long week, and I’m not feeling 100%. It could be the 9-13 hour days, it could be the PMS, it could be the position of the Sun in Uranus (ok, maybe not, I just wanted to say Uranus). Regardless, I need some retail therapy. … Continue reading The summer of my discontent
Usually I cruise through life doin’ what I do, and don’t think too much of it. Then every once in a while, a series of seemingly unrelated events come together and the universe gives me a big kick in the arse and says “This is how it all fits. This is what you’re meant to … Continue reading Karmic Alignment
Things are still going well at the Spelunking Club. I’m having a great time, meeting great people, and even finding time to do a little spelunking myself. Not having a spelunking background at all, it’s nice to find out that I seem to have a bit of a knack for it – which really helps … Continue reading Firefighting
I took it, you should too! Continue reading MIT Weblog Survey
Exerpt from the dream I’m hoping to have tonight: “Why hello there Christian Bale… is that electricity running through your cape, or are you just happy to see me?” Continue reading Batman + IMAX = Drool
This Fish has a beautiful post on love today. That’s the part about love that’s always been hard for me – stepping outside of my own security, to take a chance at humiliation to show I care. But I’m learning as I get older that it’s not about me. It’s about dropping defenses… exposing previously … Continue reading Love you Long Time
I hope you all took the time today to let the guy you call Dad know how much he’s appreciated. But here’s a tip, special from me to you: When you get him something called a Reciprocating Saw, it doesn’t matter that you don’t know what it does or why he wants one. Just don’t … Continue reading Daddy’s Girl
… do my allergies come out when it rains? Le Ow. Continue reading Why…
And on it goes. Apparently I am not allowed to have consistently awesome roommates. The laws of the universe have dictated that roommates must alternate between super-awesome, and INSANE.
The next episode in the crazy Ray saga is that now, he has decided that my brother Ryan hates him. Or something.
This is a long one.. you’ve been warned (sorry for the extra click Heather!)
