The pub, laptop and me.
I was ID’ed tonight. Not always a strange occurance, as I do tend to go out in a rather large city where there is a rule that if you look to be 25 or under you MUST be ID’ed. Ok, fine, I get it. I actually may one day be thrilled that you asked for […]

When I Grow Up
I am trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up. I’m almost certain this is something I should have some sort of opinion about.
So far my options include:
1. Another 2 years of school to become an expert on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (after the half year more I have to go for […]

Why I pass up Cosmo for Men’s Health
From Bathroom Reader to Dinner Table Convo
Around here there is a new magazine of choice for the ladies: Men’s Health.
Perhaps this doesn’t strike you as odd in the slightest. I don’t know. The more girls I tell this to, the more I’m becoming used to the response “I know, eh? It’s pretty great. I read my […]

Animal, Cannibal, Fellatio
I have begun back-reading old posts on a lovely blog by a young British woman, which I’m sure will soon make it into my links.
A few have been emotionally tinged, a tad bitter (as any dating-aged young woman’s personal posts are bound to be), or alcohol-induced rants about lack-of-sleep, jobs, and men. But mostly they […]

Narcissus
Sign in Small Unassuming Florist Shop behind our apartment building: “EASTER PLANTS!”
photo above: proof that advertising, even in its simplest forms, is very effective indeed.
After a long day, running on 3 hours sleep, the potted mini-daffodils were a little present to myself. Unfortunately the weather network is forecasting snow later in the week. Oh well, […]

“Cause living life’s not a goal”
I don’t have anything particularly witty or insightful to say right now. Though it is certainly debatable whether I really ever do. But that is entirely beside the point now isn’t it? Indeed.
I did think of a something to write, more than once, as it happens. But as I don’t carry a pen and notebook […]

Winter Escape
Every day for the last week I have invariably found myself humming “Escape”. Not romantic crooner Enrique Iglesias’ corny/seductive song (blech), but the good ol’ Jimmy Buffet’s popular Caribbean drinking song:
“If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you’re not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, […]

Pull me up
We are on our way to the campus bookstore.
I use the term “bookstore” loosely here. That is its official title, but it is more accurately described as a dimly lit brown-metal sided shed with racks of overpriced books, rarely in stock, labelled with the prices of what each would cost “used”. This labelling is of […]

Playing Photographer in the Gardens
A couple of weeks ago The Welshman and I went for a walk in the Halifax Public Gardens.
He got a new Nikon D40X for graduation and has been in animated photographer mode ever since. Not that I’m complaining - I got his old Sony out of the deal. It still technically belongs to him (the […]

I have not dropped off the face of the planet.
(That’s an odd saying. I wonder if it’s actually been around since people thought the earth was flat?)
I have no excuses, I just didn’t feel like I had much to say. But, I’m back with all my insight and wisdom. All of it. Really, I have insight.
Right now I am unemployed and living at […]
