Let’s Thai one on!
It’s been a quiet weekend. Unlike last weekend, which saw friends from Ottawa, a friend from Washington, and the younger Larsh sibling invade Toronto (as well as being another friends birthday!). That meant a night out which left me with a bruise that still makes people gasp a week later. Ha! I just typed […]

I can even go home for lunch
Phew, this whole working for a living thing is making me tired. I’m four days in. And getting up at eight is brutal. I know, cry me a river. I’m sure that I will adjust. And I figure if the only thing I could possibly even maybe complain about is getting up a bit […]

I wanted to be green!

When exactly do I get my business cards?
Well, its happened. You know how they tell you not to worry? And that things will work out? That tizzy I worked myself into about not knowing what I was going to be doing in September was all for naught. I’m employed! And happily! I wasn’t sure how I would feel about leaving behind […]

The Pinky Princess
I’ve been having some problems with my right pinky finger. They are directly related to jamming it on a grounder, oh, about a month ago. It doesn’t really straighten, it doesn’t really bend, and every once in a while, it sends an excruciating pain down my arm that forces me to drop whatever it […]

The Same Page
For most things, the more I do them, the better I get at them. If I run often, I get faster and I build endurance. If I bind books more often, I can sew without thinking and my corners become much closer to perfect. If I read more, I read faster and I remember […]

The times, they are a’changing
Well, its official. I’m all done grad school. Unless of course somehow I end up failing my last class. Which would be awful and rather ironic. See, I’ve been trying to keep my job, which is of course only a student job, but a well paying one, and I’ve tried everything just short of […]
