Help name my new apartment!

I can’t remember the names of all the apartments I’ve lived in. Heck, I can’t actually remember what I named the last one. I lived in Eden for a while… and the Hot Humping Action Pad… and the Hobbit Hole… but damn, I’ve moved a lot since I was 17, and I named just about [...]

One Month

Well, it’s officially been one month since Nick & I broke up. And I can say without any doubt that it’s been the worst month of my life. Trying to focus on the positive doesn’t ignore the fact that this has sucked so badly I still can’t figure out what the hell I’m supposed to [...]

Home is where the heart is

I’m almost ready to show off my place. I have to offload some empty boxes and reorganize the craft closet, but otherwise… I’m pretty much done. So, the new place: As mentioned previously, I’m in the same ‘hood as the old place, about a ten minute walk away. I face north, and since I’m on [...]

Hooray! Internet!

Thus completes the saga of the internet. Oh, I guess I should start a little further back. So, in the week before I moved into my new place, I arranged to have Telus setup. The cost worked a little better for me, I wasn’t bundling anything with either company, and while the initial monthly fees [...]

Eh.

Fuck this nabloposttoomuch thing. This month sucks, I’ll write when I want. So I’m staying with my parents right now. I really appreciate having them as my safety net, since staying with Nick this week was not an option, and I don’t get my keys for the new place until the 15th. And yet… I [...]

Happy Movember

I tried to get Nick to grow a mustache in honor of Movember. He wasn’t buying it, and so I tried to show him how awesome he would look with a mustache via paint and the spray option. I, uh, suck at Paint, and also didn’t save it, so I won’t share that here. Needless [...]

I’m bad at this.

Remember when I almost always blogged every day? Apparently that got harder. In my defense, I was out of the house at 9 and didn’t get home until after midnight, so I’m not sure WHEN I would have blogged. Yesterday was an SCA event a mere block from my house, so really … I HAD [...]

I support Alternate Transportation

(Spotted on Davie St at Denman.)

Wow. I needed that.

In September, I won a contest on Miss604 for a $50 credit to Goodnews.com, one of the new bulk voucher sites ala Groupon, SocialShopper, LivingSocial that has popped up recently. The twist with Goodnews is that they donate a portion of every purchase to charity, of which I am a big fan. So I’d been [...]

To Do

- use goodnews voucher for facial and massage (appt Friday) – find those boots I loved and buy them – get haircut and stylist consultation for what to do with shaggy mop – mani/pedi. I managed not to bite my nails off despite considerable stress, deserve reward – go to Art Gallery – go to [...]
