It doesn’t have the same ring as Amanda Fucking Palmer, does it? Oh well. So at Nick’s christmas party, I won tickets to see Katy Perry in January. She’s the “I kissed a girl and I liked it” bubblegum pop girl. Huh. OK. Well, her music seems catchy enough, although I tend to be kind [...]

Uncharitable thought of the day: Well, that’s why you work at Future Shop.

So I was at Future Shop on Friday night, doing a little Christmas shopping (shocking). I picked up a [redacted] for [Never You Mind], which had to be retrieved from a salesperson directly so they could go in the little back room and get it. Fine. So the kid comes out, and he can’t be [...]

Huh. More than two days of snow (followed by a week of gross slush). In Vancouver. How crazy is that? Saturday night, I went to take Justice for her evening pee. Got outside, saw that there was another 6 inches of snow since the last time I’d peered outside, and stuck my head back inside [...]

Have killer headache, and am therefore not at work today. But! No matter how shitty I feel, the dog has to pee. And it’s snowing, and she loves snow, so I thought we’d go for a romp in the park. I don’t have to do much — take off leash, stand still, pick up the [...]

Nick & I, in an attempt to be fiscally responsible, set a price limit on what we’d be spending for each other. Initially, this was annoying because I had several awesome ideas, but they were all … well, in the “bloody expensive” category. Like, 4-5 times what we agreed on eventually. Poop. Fine, so… $100 [...]

Warning: If you play Warcraft, and haven’t done the Overlord Drakuru quest series in Zul’Drak, and care about spoilers… stop here. If you don’t play Warcraft… this will be boring.

So, yesterday I made a quick set of votives, some tapers & some tealights, then thought I’d give the water balloon luminaries tutorial a try. Well, first, our hot water was out again. God damnit. So the water was ice cold. I thought that sounded like a bad idea, so I gave up on that [...]
