I blogged every single day for the month of November! This was a great way to get back into the blogging habit. While I know I'm not going to blog every day for the month of December (there's other things to write like Christmas cards for example), I think this was the kick start I… Continue reading I did it! 🙂

On a cold day like this one, one might expect me to be complaining about the weather, but I'm not. I might have small complaints now and again about being cold (for example if/when the doors are broken at work letting in too much cold air, or if I've somehow planned poorly for the weather… Continue reading Edmonton and the weather

There's a lot I could type about here (and I'm oh so tempted to just type about hanging with Cats at Parties), because sometimes it is just awesome to spend time with pets when you don't actually have any of your own (good gosh, cuddles with pets are sometimes so awesome!)… but really I'd like… Continue reading A full but wonderful day…

Yesterday I decluttered my home. I also did my seemingly annual bookshelf reorganization (yes my books multiply semi-frequently, yes I did also weed my collection). This meant that 5 bags of stuff left my home for the free market event today, and that two more will leave my home tomorrow. And while decluttering COULD mean… Continue reading On the topic of Black Friday Sales and Buy Nothing Day

So on this snowy day when things that I had planned to do have been cancelled due to weather (and when I'm pretty happy to still be on vacation and not at work), I figure I had best type a bit about last night when I saw the Flashdance musical (with my parents although they… Continue reading On seeing the Flashdance musical

And I can't say that I'm ready with my bags of things to donate just yet, though I haven't acquired so much junk over the course of this year as to need to rid myself of just as much as I donated last year to the event. I haven't quite figured out exactly what shifts… Continue reading The Buy Nothing Day Free Market is coming

And as usual I'm not at all ready. But I quite honestly don't mind: I don't usually start much of the Holiday shopping etc. until December (or at least late November) anyway. That said, it is time for me to start thinking about Christmas/Holiday cards. If you would like me to send you a physical… Continue reading A month before Christmas…

I don't often link to videos in my blog postings, but maybe I ought to do this more? I often watch the videos that I see in my various social media feeds, and do spend quite a bit of time watching the videos from my various YouTube subscriptions. Usually I just share/comment/retweet etc. to these… Continue reading On Identity and Ambiguous Ethnicity

Today marks the 51st anniversary of the launch of my favourite TV show at the moment. And while I'm FAR FAR FAR from caught up on the classic Who TV episodes, or on the comic books, I really do want to keep up with the new Doctor Who comics and TV episodes. I'm on top… Continue reading Comic books and Doctor Who

I spend a lot of time on social media on any given day. Whether that's just because I keep Tweetdeck open on my second monitor when I don't need it for some other more valuable purpose, or because I like to read Facebook on my breaks at work, or because G+ is someplace to browse… Continue reading Social media and following people you admire
