Full-on sports!

The next 10 or so weeks are going to be full of sport-based activities for me! This chick is getting her act together, and getting back into top shape!
Starting tomorrow… It’s bootcamp twice a week for eight weeks. (Yikes!) For about an hour every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 7am (Double Yikes!) [...]

Ha! Friday Silliness…

TGIF! I thought I’d share a funny video that Vern sent me yesterday…

Oh, and this is the email he wrote that explained the context of the video: “Of course, I can generally get a fix of how long I can put up with annoying girlfriend behaviour for in about the first 10 minutes [...]

Being Single = Being Vulnerable

I don’t even know why I’m feeling this way… But I always have.
When I’m single, I feel very vulnerable — for good reason. When you are dating, you need to show your soft side… That side that you don’t like to share with others unless you have a great deal of trust already established. [...]

Thoughts on a Thursday:

Just random… just because.
I’m really happy that Vancouver is actually getting sun occasionally again. Okay, maybe not today. But, I know what it looks like.
I have a beautiful, incredible, new camera that takes the most awesome photos. And, it’s not getting any attention. Note to self… Give the Rebel some love!
I [...]

It’s the MID-WEEK Socializing Game!
(Sorry, a bit late this week!)

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 love life… ;)

First off… Let me share the way to my heart!!

I had a fantastic date on Saturday night! Joe Fortes was incredible, as always, and my date even had flowers delivered to the table for me before we arrived. Um. Wow!
Add in a bottle of Wolf Blass Black Label, [...]

Want to meet new, like-minded people?

Well… You are in luck! There’s an upcoming blogger meet-up on Wednesday that I highly suggest you should be a part of, if you actually live in Vancouver!
So, click here, and RSVP! If I haven’t met you before, I hope to see you there, and if I have, well… it’s been far too [...]

This is a no-drama zone!

Seriously, why do some people thrive on drama? Does it make them feel like they matter more, somehow? Does stirring up trouble unnecessarily give them some sort of sense of belonging? It’s weird.
Recently, I was reminded of this kind of needless crap that I thought I left behind in high school. [...]

An alternative to Plenty Of Fish…

I was (not-so-recently) asked to review a singles site: datehookup.com — A site that has paid me to place a banner ad on a historical blog post that gets a fair amount of hits. I happily agreed, as I regularly have a lot to say about dating options available to me, especially local ones.
Here’s [...]

Speed Dating, round deux!

Hi kids! How was your night?
Mine was great, thank you for asking…
I was compulsive yesterday and signed up for a last-minute speed dating opportunity tonight with the same company (FastLife) as I’d utilized during the last speed-dating adventure.
This time was much, much better.
Perhaps it was was because Vern wasn’t there, this time? Just [...]

I can’t see…

No, seriously. I can’t. I’m practically typing blind here.
Today has been one very bizarre day. After a crazy-stressful day yesterday dealing with a (place explative here) landlord who may have possibly put my financial identity in jeapardy, some personal drama that I don’t even want to talk about anymore, and generally a [...]

My Motorola MOTOKRZR K1m review, finally!

I received a Motorola MOTOKRZR from Hill & Knowlton several weeks ago now, and was instantly excited when the delivery guy handed me my box. Packaged with care, in a sleek silver spy case (now housing makeup… I’m such a girl) was the gun-metal grey, shiny new KRZR in all it’s glistening glory. [...]

Obligation.

“Obligation”. It’s not a word I like, but I impose it on myself alot.
This week got completely and totally away from me for a lot of reasons. Mostly, when things start stacking up, I check out a bit. That, and I am weeks late getting my depo shot, but the effects haven’t [...]

Motorola KRZR Goodness…

I’m finally ready to write a review on my KRZR! Unfortunately, I have a big site roll-out today for a radio network, so I’ll have to finish the entry after my office day is complete. Oh, and I’m all bummed because L here at work actually got to choose the colour of her [...]

Hey, guess what!

I’m alive!
Phew, that was one very, very busy weekend again… But, I had some great laughs, a Giants game (Vancouver won, of course), some drunken debauchery at the pub, a long walk on the beach by myself, helped a friend move, went to the wine festival (didn’t get drunk, thankfully!), and got some visiting in [...]
