I don't really start prepping for Christmas, etc. until the Butterdome Craft Sale (and this year it does not happen until this Thursday), I have started listening to Christmas music. I won't get around to writing Christmas cards until after the 13th when I hand in my final paper (which SHOULD be done on that… Continue reading Wrapping up another school semester…

So yesterday I finally made it out to Kerstin's Chocolates (they had a Customer Appreciation party), and ended up getting drinking chocolate and a chocolatiere to make my hot chocolate in. The party itself was rather delicious though — I learned that I rather like chocolate egg nog with brandy! It was delicious — I… Continue reading Chocolate and Guitar Hero oh my!

Okay, so when you go to your WORK Christmas party, do you think that it's a good idea to get completely stupidly drunk? Apparently at least two of my co-workers did. I wasn't impressed. In particular when after one of them was cut off, as he lit a cigarette indoors (it's illegal to smoke indoors… Continue reading Work Christmas party comments

I love the whole winter holiday season. Christmas is my favorite holiday as I love the music, the events and so much more! There are also lots of great food opportunities, volunteer opportunities and time off from School/work (well eventually anyway). I like to spend time with family and friends and there's the awesomeness of… Continue reading Writer's Block: Wintertime is here

Megan was one best friend of mine. But it did not last. I blame my own bossiness, really for why the friendship didn't last. A good reminder to be cognizant of how my behaviour affects others.

Gosh… Tuna sashimi! And well, most restaurants don't provide vinegar (and I'm not going to the effort to prepare it myself just for one person, thank you very much), so it's not quite the same, more often than not, but I still do love it. It has a certain appeal, particularly when I'm not having… Continue reading Writer's Block: That's good eats

I know that I won't get around to sending holiday cards until relatively late… but I do enjoy sending them. If you'd like a card, please message me your address (or otherwise send it my way) as I know that some of your addresses have changed. Thanks everyone!

Oh yes, I went and rode the zipline in Churchill Square this morning. I wasn't sure I'd get the chance to do it this Grey Cup weekend, but heck, Tim encouraged me to come, and so we went. Poor Tim had circulation issues and couldn't stay outside in the cold long enough to partake in… Continue reading Sailing through the crisp cold winter air attached by a carabiner!

I do actually rather like gift-giving. It's a fun challenge. Sometimes I'm better at it than others — particularly since I so rarely go shopping, but I do enjoy the process. I think it's worth it. In other news, the Buy Nothing Day event went splendidly this year. I really hope that it goes even… Continue reading Writer's Block: It's the thought that counts

So this year, for Buy Nothing Day, I did actually succeed in buying nothing. It was an interesting feat. I did get some things for free from the Buy Nothing Day Free Market I help host with Kiwanis (please come tomorrow! We're open on Saturday from 9am-6pm! More info here). So now that I'm out… Continue reading Happy Buy Nothing Day!
