So Nick’s been working crazy, crazy hours lately. Like, 12-14 hour days every day, and another 6-8 on weekends, and this will probably keep up for a while. I’m starting to understand the term “EA Widow”. Being slightly obsessive and enjoying spending As Much Time As Possible with him, this is a bit sad. I [...]

Coworker: Do you still blog all the time? Me: Oh yeah. Coworker: What do you write about? Me: Well, a few days ago, I wrote about my girlparts. Coworker: This might be why I stopped reading your website… Me: Probably a good thing.

I admit: a good half the reason I chose VanCity when Royal started pissing me off was this commercial. Way to give back, babe.
Macabre humour ahead.

Note: My sympathies to people affected by this. However, I have a macabre sense of humour, and given my future career aspirations, this is actually a good thing — those with a darker sense of humour are apparently less likely to burn out in professions like paramedicine. Disclaimer aside… is it bad that the first [...]
“Conscientious” has a much better ring than “Neurotic”

On Monday, I had my bi-annual “hey, take a look inside my vagina”-fest. (Warning: This post talks about girl-bits, in case you hadn’t already noticed.) Roughly every 6 months or so, I pop down to the Bute Street Clinic, get my feet into those ever so lovely stirrups, and think of London while someone pokes [...]

Suck it, RBC — I’m a VanCity member now. Overall, I’ve had a thoroughly successful morning. I went down to the VanCity at 1st & Commercial, which is conveniently located roughly halfway between my home & office (I work at one end of Commercial and live at the other) and met up with my new [...]
5 months

I call this curse broken. I’ve mentioned previously my 5 month curse, in that every single serious relationship I’ve ever had (and several non-serious ones) has lasted exactly 5 months, save one. And that one probably SHOULD have lasted 5 months, but I was young & dumb. And stoned a lot. Well, by the time [...]
Jenny, don’t change your number

So after aforementioned not-good experience with movie last night, Nick & I were walking back to his office when his phone rang… and it was me calling. Odd, since I was standing next to him, and y’know, NOT making phone calls. I start fumbling around and sure enough, my phone’s gone. Probably good at that [...]

I wanted Jenn to watch this trailer, so instead of say, emailing it to her directly, I will write a post about it. Portal is one of the most unique, fascinating, and disturbingly hysterical games I’ve played … possibly ever. It has the appearance of being a 1st person shooter (which is so NOT my [...]

I made a vast error in judgement tonight: I agreed to go see Death Race. Little known fact about me: I can’t handle torture-type scenes in movies. Don’t get me wrong, I love action flicks… but when it goes from being bombs and guns and buses going really fast and turns to destroying someone personally, [...]
