Last night, on my way home from quilting class (which, just to be clear, I LOVE!), I was on the bus, headphones deep in my ears blaring Howard Stern when 2 LDS guys got on. I think, if I remember correctly, their names were Elder Brainwashed and Elder Superdoy. Anyway. One leaned towards me and […]

Gorgeousness and gorgeosity
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, crochet, GripingI got this yarn in the mail (fishy wishy in a dishy, 105g, 400yds) yesterday from Seejayneknityarns. It is even prettier in real life, lemme tell you. The colours are crazy, now to decide what to do with it-and the other balls of yarn in my ever growing stash. I’m sure I will figure something […]

Cottage cheese
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, Art!, Griping, hahaI took this on my way home from Dufferin Mall today. I had to squat down to take my camera out of my backpack plus I had my headphones in and an apple clamped in my teeth so naturally this is the perfect time to be harassed by a security guard. Now I know everyone […]

Red Alert! Red Alert!
By Caitlin Jane in GripingHello, all you ladies out there, I have a serious warning for you: Walmart takes bathing suits back! YES! I was behind a woman in line at customer service today and she returned 2 bikini bottoms with NO QUESTIONS ASKED! I almost barfed. When I got to the head of the line I asked the […]

I made a robot
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, Art!, crochet, GripingThis is all I had the time to hot glue together on Saturday. Then I glued her to the wall under her friends Gluey and Glovey. Now she won’t be lonely. Anyway, other than that, it’s business as usual. I’m completely, utterly, addicted to knitting and it’s making me crazy. I sure wish I hadn’t […]

FML
By Caitlin Jane in clothes, GripingThe lady taking money at the subway yelled at me today. When I approached the booth to buy tokens (five for $11.25) she was having an animated conversation with another TTC employee and it was clear that it was her ranting about something that had happened. So I gave her 2 five dollar bills, a […]

Dear Tastespotting;
By Caitlin Jane in food, GripingYou used to be my favourite foodporn site. Then there was a battle about ownership and you went offline and someone started foodgawker so I started going there to satisfy my need for recipes. Then you came back online and I considered both sites to be equal. That is, until recently. Nowadays tastespotting has Patron […]

This is the joke that never ends
By Caitlin Jane in food, Griping, loveI wound up at a walk-in clinic this afternoon. Since we’ve been home from Cuba I have been blessed with pretty serious stomach cramps and haven’t had a solid…well, I will spare you the gorier details but let’s just say that the phrase “pissing out my asshole” is appropriate. Now I’ve been told to stick […]

La plus ca change
By Caitlin Jane in daily grind, GripingWith apologies to Ryan and Corrie. Who can recognize this? Too hard? Here’s another angle: Now can you tell? Living in a big city can be fun (you get to listen to people sing along with their ipods) but it can also be depressing. Especially when Queen St W has a Tim Horton’s.

Cough. COUGH. Splutter.
By Caitlin Jane in GripingFor the second time this year, I am officially sick. And I am officially sick of being sick. There’s nothing more boring or miserable in the world. This time ’round I have a terrible throat, sore and full of gunk that needs barking up. And the coughing is awful, it hurts and it seems to […]
