we will rock you

Posted on July 23, 2007. Filed under: Music, Theatre |

I was fortunate enough to receive free tickets to see We Will Rock You last week and I wish I could go back and see it again and again and again.
The plot itself and the music, humour, wit, and political messages within were perfect. The concert-like atmosphere was fun and different. A must-see show all [...]

conrad black book

Posted on July 14, 2007. Filed under: Books |

I wonder what the Conrad Black news will do for his new book (The Invincible Quest) sales? It’s definitely a value for the number of pages. Any projections out there?

bathtub woes

Posted on July 14, 2007. Filed under: Condo Things |

Though it’s not as bad as nearly killing myself with mustard gas, I think I ruined my bathtub whilst attempting to clean it. I didn’t think about what it was made of and how I should clean it (though, thinking back, I think my mom told me when I was first cleaning in…). Nor did [...]

i know it could always be worse, but…

Posted on July 12, 2007. Filed under: Condo Things |

It’s what I’m thinking about lately — probably too much — but it’s a new state for me this lack of money thing and it was solidified yesterday when I received a GST cheque in the mail. I thought for sure that I wouldn’t get one this year — I mean, I’m not a student [...]

saving the world? and reducing my costs?

Posted on July 10, 2007. Filed under: Climate Change, Condo Things, Environment |

I haven’t put my air conditioner on yet this summer. So far it hasn’t been too bad – the highest it’s gotten to inside has been 28 C and to me, that’s not bad.
At first I thought, in my enhanced environmental awareness, that I would just not turn it on to try to save the [...]

b12 shots do have fringe benefits

Posted on July 10, 2007. Filed under: Uncategorized |

Other than helping me combat my B12 deficiency, the B12 shots that I get every other week keep the mosquitoes at bay. There are lots of articles out there that also say this is true.
Brian and I were at the cottage this week and though the bugs were attracted to him they stayed well away [...]

sicko, and the american way

Posted on July 4, 2007. Filed under: Movies, Politics |

Brian and I saw Sicko last night and while I was aware of the Health Care and Insurance situation in the US, I wasn’t aware of some of the ludicrous denial statements (like you’re too young to have cervical cancer — are you kidding me?), or the doctor pay-offs, but I’m not surprised.
What shocked me, [...]

of course, the little one has an eating disorder

Posted on July 2, 2007. Filed under: fish |

So I brought home my fish yesterday and got him settled (his name is Little One). And he was great except he wouldn’t eat. I thought he was just in trauma from the move, so I tried again today and he would put the food in his mouth and then immediately spit it out. Over [...]
