The Mid-Week Socializing Game!

Hey guys! It’s that time of the week, again… Time to socialize on the fly! (And, I’ll have one of those shots in the photo, please!)
Here’s how it works: I’ll start with a question, and the first person answers my question, and then asks a different question for the next person in the [...]

I’m officially sick of being in bed.

I’ve spent the past two days in bed, feeling horribly under the weather. It’s been about a year since I had a cold like this. Yuck!
Thankfully, I am just starting to be able to breath again without being high on cold meds.
And so, I’m getting my sorry ass out of bed and tuning [...]

22 bottles of wine on the wall…

Tonight was super-fun! Thanks to everyone who made it out, including those that I hadn’t met before — Particularily Patricia, who knew no one at the party and still made it a good time. It was great to finally meet you!
I had a fabulous time tonight, and it didn’t take much to clean [...]

Friday Silliness, a little delayed!

This is worth watching! It’s a sad, sad tale of a guy who got fired from Apple after he appeared in one of their talent shows.
Good times!

Do you ‘Twitter’?

…If you don’t, you should!
Well, at least, you should if you are the type of person that is always wondering what everyone is up to, because you want to get out and do something fun. Or, even, get on the phone with someone because they’re available.
And, how would you know they aren’t busy?
Use Twitter!
It’s [...]

Boobies 101! (do-over)

About a year ago now (give or take a few weeks) I was out with Miranda, Reilly, Darren, Lara, Deanna, and Tyler to see some really great Burlesque dancers… It was a fun night, and we all had a good time.
But, tonight, I really got schooled! I was out with Vern, Eunice, and some [...]

“Hi, I’m Tanya, and I’ll be dumping your ass tonight.”

One of the things that I’m finding very hard to do during the whole dating adventure (this is not specific to just online dating, I must clarify…) is to write, “I’m sorry, [place dude's name here who just didn't live up to what/who they said they were, or has presented a serious red-flag during our [...]

Friday Silliness will have to wait… When there’s a wine fest to talk about!

Okay! Calling all wine drunks, err… drinkers!!
It’s that time of year again! Time to get the Vancouver International Wine Festival tickets — They sold out in a few days last year, so I don’t want to be disappointed this time around.
Here’s the details! (Want to be one of my six? Drop [...]

Northern Voice: Canada’s Blogging Conference is almost here!

As I can’t get time off of work to join in Friday’s Un-Conference, ‘Moose Camp’, I’m only going Saturday the 24th… But, it should be an interesting conference! I’m definitely looking forward to it and the opportunity to meet, in person, many of the people I haven’t had a chance to meet through other [...]

Thoughts on dating… A month into it

I thought I’d ink down some random things about my dating experiences, so far…
– Interestingly enough, I’ve run into several people that I’ve met through other people who noticed me on PlentyOfFish, and Lavalife. I’ve often wondered, but never asked outright, what made my profile noticable enough to recognize me offline? (because, to [...]

Sunday night quiz? Are you S.M.R.T.?

Okay kids, play at home with Vern and I!
Vern’s been working at this all day, and just put it in my lap. I’m still thinking on it, but I’ve only had a few minutes to ponder it. Perhaps you know the answer?
A teacher wants his students to guess his birthday.
He gives student A [...]

Friday Silliness…

Just when I thought I’d seen it all… Jeremy sent me to this site. Please tell me these people aren’t taking this seriously? A Swedish Rabbit Show Jumping Association?
Now, I’ve truly seen it all. [place eye roll here]
What’s everyone looking forward to this fine weekend? Me? I’m meeting someone new [...]

What a tragic end to a tragic life…

I was climbing into the car, after getting a new tire installed a few minutes ago, when I heard… Anna Nicole Smith had just died.
Normally, this type of story wouldn’t even register much more than a “that’s too bad” in my mind, but I’ve been watching the soap opera unfold over the past several weeks [...]

Feeling better, but today’s going to be a challenge…

I obviously needed sleep, and I definitely got more last night than I have over the past few days.
I did, however, come into a shit-storm at work, but it’s manageable. It’s time for me to step-up a bit more and put in extra hours, methinks.
And, there’s nothing wrong with that — I love my [...]

ARghH :(

I’m feeling really irritable, despite having a very productive day at work.
WTF?
I guess we all have our moments, and I haven’t had one of these in a while. I’m off to go and sit in a dark corner for a while and feel sorry for myself.

Reminded

Today was a good day for me, other than the fact that I couldn’t go out to see my Dad… Circumstances will have me going on Tuesday evening, instead.
Today, after sleeping in ’til 9 (and I went to bed reasonably early) I cleaned up my place, went for a walk in the rain, and then [...]
