TGIF! I’m too darn excited…

I got to sleep at about 12:15am, and I’m now awake — It’s 4am.
I’m just really, really excited! This would be one of those times that it would be great to have someone here to share this with… No big deal, though. I’ll be around 300 other singles shortly in the [...]

She did it again…

Minus 3.5 more inches…
Addition of pink…
Can you say, NEW HAIR!? This chick no longer looks conservative! It’s about time.
Rock on! I love my new doo!

What are you going as, for Halloween?

I’m so scattered lately, that I haven’t even figured out a costume yet for Halloween… and I’m celebrating it on the cruise! For all you playing along at home, I leave Friday morning.
Err, not much time to figure it out.
Of course, I do have a couple of costumes I could throw together at home. [...]

Did ya know?

It’s totally impossible to buy shorts — nice, but casual ones — in Vancouver, in October? I guess I’ll have to wait until I get to Miami on Friday. I don’t have a single pair that fit me. I’ve had a bit of a moratorium on short purchases these past 2 summers.
And, [...]

TGIF!!!

This Friday couldn’t come soon enough for me, but not because I wanted to rush through the week… I have so much to do and I need all the time I can get at the moment.
But, I’m tired. And, I really need to sleep in.
I cannot believe tomorrow is my 20th high school grad [...]

iPhone frustration!

I have a few complaints about my cellular service. First of all… The Fido system is horrifically bad. And, buggy. And, did I mention, BAD?
It often takes days for me to get voicemails that are left for me. If I see someone has called, I’ll often go in to see if [...]

The MID-WEEK Socializing Game - Election Edition

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 [...]

If Facebook tells me one more time…

…that I “may know” my ex-husband’s wife, I’m gonna have to scream. I’ve put the “X” saying don’t show me this again about 8 times now.
Nothing against Heather. I’m sure she’s a nice woman an’ all, but seriously… Get over it, Facebook. I have.

I’m just sayin’

Giving thanks

I haven’t done a gratitude post in a while, so I thought I’d round out my Canadian Thanksgiving celebrations, and blog a few things that I’m thankful for…
– All the amazing people who surround me. Family doesn’t have to exclude friends, and my friends are most certainly my family.
– The abundance in my life. [...]

The weirdest thing happened the other night…

I can’t get over a weird situation that happened recently.
Monica and I had met up for a nice dinner together at the Water Street Cafe (where I had fairly lousy food for the second and final time — Why do kitchens keep cooking my filet tenderloins to a crisp when I ask for medium?) — [...]

Fun was had by all…

Thanks to everyone for coming out last night! We had people from as far away as Victoria and Seattle join us for the festivities! The comics were a blast, and everyone had a great time.
I promise… No more spamming to fund raise now! I appreciate everyone’s support, and I’m only a few [...]

Hey Sarah Palin…

Well, I for one, welcome these guys to Vancouver. They’d fit right in… Way to go, guys. Totally entertaining, and sad, all at the same time. I HEART YouTube!

The sky isn’t falling.

I’ve heard a lot of friends lately talking about the state of our Canadian economy, and the utter disaster looming for our American counterparts.
And, yes… I do agree that we’re coming into harder times. But, life as we know it doesn’t stop, does it, just because our economy is recessionary? It’s not like [...]

The Comedy Night for Diabetes is coming up this Wednesday! It’s going to be a riot, and I hope you can make it to the Jupiter Lounge for the event — I’ve currently got a whole lot of “maybes” out there, and hope that many of those “maybes” turn into attendees come Wednesday night.
Here’s [...]

TGIF! I’m lighter, again!

Hi guys! I’ve been sick again… Can you believe it? I had to take yesterday off, because I was sneezing up snot and coughing like my lungs were going to fall out of my mouth. It wasn’t pleasant. I even scared myself when I looked in the mirror.
Yikes.
I’m back at work [...]

Enough is enough!

I’ve been avoiding the dating scene for several months now, after going through not only a pretty horrific scene that I couldn’t blog about here, but also a string of dull dates with people I shouldn’t have said “yes” to.
But, enough is enough. One really bad experience that shook my faith and trust in [...]
