Happy Victoria Day!

(Orrrrr ... Happy Monday to all you non Canadians.)

I plan to celebrate my Monday off by doing laundry (I'm so wild. And crazy.) Reading (Really. Am an epic party animal.) And playing more La Noire. Oh and catch up on Doctor Who, gotta do that too.

One: The New Joel Plaskett single "Jimmie's Still Jimmie is amazing. Oh man I have it on my iPod and I have been playing it over, and over and over.

Two: My desk feels ... weird. I've packed pretty much everything up and moved it to the new desk, but it is all just boxed up there. Kinda nervous, kinda excited.

Three: Remember, Sully, when I ( Read more... )

Canadian polotics, but not really political picspam. Just ... the picture of Harper with the cat. That might have made my day.

And now, because I meant to post it eons and eons ago (on the day when I spent my day OD'ing on the CBC archives stuff that is available on YouTube):

So next Monday Chuck is all new and in 3D. Now because I live in Canada, I can't get my hands on the 3D glasses required to watch the show in it's 3D-ness (the glasses they pass out at the movies? Apparently won't work as that is "real D" and this is the old blue and red lensed 3D thing). Anyways, the glasses are being handed out at some ( Read more... )

So we got some snow -- but it's okay, I have power, so I'm doing better than a lot of other people in the province. The "upside" to the snow? I get to dork out, and toss around salt on the driveway / stairs after I finish shoveling and be all "hahahah, I'm like the Winchesters! Watch me toss down this salt!".

Today Yesterday (because I wrote this up yesterday and than didn't post it - - go me!) marks the anniversary of the Halifax Explosion.

I am, to this day, fascinated by this. I don't want to pinpoint learning about all this when I was in grade four, as the reason that I became a history major, but man, it had a huge, huge, huge impact on me. I ( Read more... )
