By in kitty, we have fun

Aka “Yoin us!” Shannon already posted about it so my blog entry about our Cuba trip will be slightly different: I loved it there. It’s nothing like Mexico, but it’s beautiful-tropical and lush. We met lots of animals, including goats, kitties, dogs, chickens, ducks, geese, lizards and millions-nay, billions-of mosquitos. If you do go, pack […]

Careful!

By in a good day, kitty, we have fun

This sign in the washroom of Whole Foods made me laugh. I picture someone just…standing inside the washroom and getting bashed by another person in a hurry and then complaining to management. “There should be a sign, warning people about the hazard of standing near a door!” Ay. What has this world come to? Anyway, […]

Stupid captcha

By in haha

burgeons and…hand print? Luckily I live with someone who has far superior brain power than me and now I know that I really only need to type one of the 2 words anyway and it should (and did) work. Then I learned how captchas work, and that was very interesting too and I vow not […]

It’s flying away from the onslaught of 5 year old zombies nearing the end of their day at Ontario Place.

Busy, busy day

By in a good day

Shannon’s already outlined all we did today-and boy are my arms tired! Wait. Anyway, I am pretty burnt out but it’s not over yet. There’s a party in the building tonight starting in 5 minutes and going until 5am. Lucky for us, it’s not next door and we can’t hear it. She totally cruised over […]

Turn! Turn! Turn!

Today was Ari’s last day of school. There were sports in the morning and a barbecue and cake after. It was really nice, her teachers are very supportive and loving, and all the kids and family members (almost all, other than the stuff throwing kid) were great. She’s excited about starting at her new school […]

Montreal, the full report.

By in a good day, Art!, we have fun

I think if I had to pick a Canadian city to live in, I’d pick Montreal. It’s beautiful, cultured, the people are polite and friendly, the art galleries are free and there are tons of green parks. I didn’t have one bad meal there and you can buy beer and wine at the corner stores. […]

MTL 2009

By in a good day

A great trip which I will report upon more fully later, after I have had some sleep. 7am flights are not fun or recommended to anyone in general. My new necklace. Spending time away from my family made me miss them and love them and remember why we’re a team.

I’m gonzo

By in a good day, love

2009 has been alternately incredibly joyous and unbearably unpleasant (and not for reasons most people would guess!) and I am taking a mini vacation to Montreal for a couple days. I will be meeting up with  my sister (who lives in Vancouver) and we are planning on being good tourists, visiting museums, shopping and eating […]
