So I went to the doctor this morning, got $200 worth of medicine for only $40 — thank you, extended health care! [As a side note, my boss was asking me recently how much I use my extended medical. As in, is it worth it for what we pay for it. Um, YES, YES, A [...]

Interesting timing: Yesterday, we did our biweekly Costco trip. Since we live on the east side, we headed along Expo Blvd to go into the parking lot across the road from GM Place. This may have been an error. It turns out, Sunday was the Junos (think: Canadian Grammys) and they happened to be at [...]

If you are… then Happy birthday! (If you’re not a marmot, you should wish the marmot a happy birthday. Because birthdays are good for Marmots!) In honour of marmots… I’m envious.

So last night, Nick, Lori & I headed out to Port Coquitlam so that when the zombies come, we’re not completely defenseless. What? These are the things I think about. We went to DVC Ventures, where they immediately put us at ease by being cheerful and amusing and then let us pick our guns. Lori [...]

I’m reasonably certain (although I have a famously bad memory, so I could be wrong) that a year ago today, I had my first pseudo-date with Nick. It was cute. We had gamed together (with his ex and a mutual friend of ours) for a few months the year before, but I had to drop [...]

So, last september, I went through a run of measurements so I could see how things are changing, since I’m bad at noticing things myself. I intended to keep it up more regularly, but we misplaced my measuring tape… until today, when it popped up again. So! Measurements abound. September 2008: bust: 37″ underbust: 32″ [...]
Suspicious? Me?

So this morning, Nick hands me a couple of socks from his drawer and says, “These must be yours.” They’re not. Hmm. Oh well, could be worse. I once found a thong under the bed. I don’t wear thongs… Hmm. *suspicious look* On the other hand, I also found enough lint that it’s possible said [...]

Nicholas says: I’m writing my own end to BSG so I can sleep at night So, the BSG finale was last friday. It’s taken me this long to say anything… because I am SO HORRIBLY DISAPPOINTED THERE ARE ALMOST NO WORDS. But that wouldn’t be very me. I ALWAYS have words, right? Anyway: Spoilers, watch [...]
The Shoe Dilemma, Temporarily Solved

So, I picked up a pair of shoes today. In the children’s department. Fucking typical. So, as it turns out, I have teeny tiny feet. Size 5 1/2 wide. It’s a little sad, I know. We wound up at Sportmart for a bit today, and I thought I’d peruse the shoe rack for a bit [...]
