So, I’m thinking I want to do a tour when I arrive in London on the 26th! After a quick search online, I found a Contiki Tour called the “European Discovery” that begins on Christmas Day (denoted by Day 1 below) — PERFECT! Ya, except, the tour company is near capacity for this date/tour, and [...]

Today, my Mom and I went to the spa, and found bliss… In the form of pure pampering and relaxation. I took her for a belated birthday gift, and felt a little guilty enjoying the experience so much — It was afterall, her birthday, not mine! I’ve been to several spas over the years, but [...]

My weekend, thus far, has been completely enjoyable! Thursday night, seven of us chicks headed out for some girl-time at Delilah’s and then Balthezar, where we enjoyed some fabulous martinis and great conversation. Thanks everyone for making it out — It was really nice to have some estrogen time! Last night, I made my way [...]

For us Canadians, this weekend is just the break we need at this time of year. Unfortunately, for us Vancouverites, the long weekend should have started next Tuesday when the weather will be nicer. It’s not looking like we’re going to have the sun at all. I’m really looking forward to this weekend, but some [...]

It all started 41 days ago, when I ordered a pair of motorcycle boots through a woman on eBay who had a great rating… She sent them uninsured, and without tracking from Oregon, and I still haven’t seen them. Bye bye $81.50 usd! As I funded this purchase through Paypal rather than a credit card [...]

Mouriès, France — Where I’ll be staying with Andrea and Chris for about a week! Yay! I think I’ve finally got my trip figured out! I just have to finalize flight options and make sure there’s still availability, check with work to ensure that they are going to be fine without me for a couple [...]

You asked, and here are my answers! Thanks everyone for playing along! Jessica asked: 1- If you could live anywhere else in the world except Vancouver, where would it be? I really loved visiting London, and perhaps at sometime in the distant future, I may make it home for a while. Dual citizenship definitely has [...]

Taking some inspiration from Yaeli … I’m going to leave it to you, my wonderful visitors, to drive a blog entry in the near future with your questions. How it works: Please leave a comment to this post asking 2 questions about me. Please try to ask different questions… And, I’ll answer them as honestly [...]

The signs have surfaced over the last several weeks: I’ve been lethargic, under the weather, physically weak, and mentally unfocussed. The problem? My activity level, due to recent illness, lack of a rowing partner, and my workload, has all but disappeared of late. This morning, when I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw [...]

Vern’s leaving to climb Mount Kilimanjaro on November 13th to raise awareness and funds for the victims of the earthquake in Pakistan. As this is not a trivial effort, and there is a certain degree of danger involved, this is a fitting way to bring some coverage to this important and tragic event. To date, [...]

My biggest pet peeve at the moment is friends who ‘trade up’… As in, the person made plans with me, and then got a better offer from someone else — This usually happens with very little notice, so I can’t even make plans with someone else. What’s worse is when they aren’t honest about it! [...]
