As NaBloPoMo wraps up tonight, I am calling it a success — I only missed posting 5 days out of the 30. Yay! So, what’s the verdict, do you like reading more posts or was my haphazard posting good enough? I suspect I will slip back into the irregular posting soon enough; I have a busy month [...]

The Coolest Job
November 29, 2010
Apparently, several friends think I have “the coolest job” — this, I discovered after posting this status update to Facebook this morning: this week, work is all about anarchy — specifically a collection of anarchist publications and ephemera held by UVic Special Collections I have switched gears a lot in the past 10 workdays covering: [...]
Sell sell sell!
November 28, 2010
Spurred in part by Friday’s basement shuffle and in part by our decision to replace the chairs in the living room with a love seat, we decided it was time to let go of some of the clutter. Yesterday, I spent a big portion of the day photographing and listing stuff we want to sell [...]
Shift in space
November 26, 2010
Once again, I found myself looking around at piles of stuff. Stuff I don’t need. Stuff I just keep shuffling from one area to another. But I will have to deal with the stacks of crap later. Tonight I was determined to find enough space to set up my serger which has been sitting in [...]
I hate mice.
November 25, 2010
I can handle spiders, snakes, insects and most creepy-crawlies, but you throw a small, uncaged rodent in my path and I am likely to scream and run faster than I ever did in gym class. When I was living on my own, shortly before I met Mike, I discovered to my horror that there were [...]
Workity-Work-Work
November 24, 2010
I’ve been sitting here tonight trying to figure out why I am so exhausted — I yawned through my afternoon meeting and grabbed a quick nap when I got home, but it really wasn’t sufficient. I think it might be because I actually got really excited and “into” work this morning. (Yes, really!) We’re starting [...]
Music Moment
November 23, 2010
I picked up this CD at the Lovecraft Birthday Celebration in August where I saw Jeff Andrew perform. I tucked the CD in my bag and took it to work where it lingered on my desk until today. I needed something to focus my brain while I worked. It was a chilly, grey morning and [...]
Of Blizzards Past
November 22, 2010
OK, really just one, and it wasn’t exactly a blizzard as much as a record-breaking dump of snow. The winter of 1996 was remembered for one thing, snow that totally shut down the city for several days. Mike and I were living in a crappy suite in a house on Ormond St., just behind Central [...]
Weather’s coming.
November 22, 2010
The title to this post is a reference to an annoying Tim Horton’s ad from a few years back in which an employee looks out the window an announces, “Weather’s coming,” before she gets a bunch of drinks ready for all the folks who will stream in on cue. Thing is, as any child can [...]
Kiddo’s First Craft Fair
November 20, 2010
I shared my table today with Kiddo and her Rainbow Cat Creations — specifically her yarn dolls and bookmarks. She was a retail star; she grasped the 6′ rule without my prompting, greeting anyone that even so much as cast a sideways glance at the table, and gleefully announced our special offer (a free bookmark [...]
