Back from a weekend with the small Edwins… Melissa, Michael, and Madeleine.

Back from an evening with Lynn Santiago, an old friend from my days in Banff… we live in the same city, you would think we’d see each other more often! We met up at 7 o’clock at The Reef, and I’ve only just gotten home. We reminisced, her girlfriend Terri (Terry?) came by, and we [...]

Oh my goodness, I got the shock of my life this evening. We were all handed back a Philosophy paper that we submitted last week, and on mine was, “This is an odd topic. Why did you write about it?” What??????
Luckily, I implemented the CYA application I learned long ago… yes kids, you gotta Cover [...]

I used a word today that I haven’t used in YEARS: aggro. Such an Australian word, but so apropos.

So I’m trying to slog through St. Thomas Aquinas today. I started to last night, but the words were swimming in front of my eyes and doing backflips. I laughed out loud when I read the intro to the reading: “St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), the author of the Summa Theologica, was the greatest of [...]

Tonight’s LING class was full of people trying to stay awake. Poor Cliff. It wasn’t his fault, it was just one of those nights.

Here’s a random thought: yesterday, as I was driving to lunch at my dad’s, I was thinking “You know what the best thing that came out of the 80’s was? Breakdancing.”

So, I’m at my brother and sister-in-law’s house, and I’ve just put the kids to bed. Surprisingly, it didn’t quite resemble the mother-of-all-tantrums I was expecting it to be, what with Melissa and Michael deciding early on being put to bed = medieval torture. Post-bath — and it was not easy getting them out of [...]

I am so screwed up! I feel like I shouldn’t even be living in this time zone. It’s after 2am, and I have been sleeping on and off all day. What’s the matter with me?!? I managed to get going around 6pm, and decided to skip Guru at the Commodore, to give stopping by Milk [...]

Went to the office yesterday, so when I got home last night, I wanted to do absolutely nothing… which I did!
And tonight, my plans changed a zillion times, but I ended up downloading a ton of songs off the Internet. I’m glad to be changing the mp3 list on my hard drive — I haven’t [...]
