Okay, I am eating crow tonight. Benn and I picked up Three Men and a Baby today and we were watching it over dinner. I pointed at one of the drug-dealing guys and said, "See, now THAT could be Jonathan." We disagree, you see, about Brass from CSI. I know a lot of you think Brass looks like Jonathan, and you probably know that I have never been able ( Read more... )

I have been living in Vancouver for just about a year now - I would have started my internship at the Aquarium around this time last year *is too lazy to go into archives and check dates* but in some ways it still doesn't really feel like home. I love the mountains, and I have favorite restaurants, and I'm definitely starting to put down roots. I'm ( Read more... )

I'm so groggy, and I work tomorrow, too. One of our regular clients just called, and when I answered the phone she said "Hi, Carol... do you ever go home, or do they just hang you up in the closet overnight?" That made me laugh. I do work every evening, plus two mornings a week. Last night Benn put me to bed at 12, and I think I was asleep before ( Read more... )

Also, anyone on Facebook? Jenn made me join and now I'm a loser with only one person friended.

Well, my most important new year's resolution is to lose more weight. I make this resolution every year, and yet somehow I am at my heaviest yet. i KNOW I CAN lose the weight, I lost 20 pounds one determined summer, and I kept it off for a year. Unfortunately, my subsequent depression and Jonathan's "I don't feel like eating in. Why don't I treat ( Read more... )

Well, my strep throat is back, and worse than ever. My throat had been sore for the past couple of days, and got really bad yesterday, to the point where I winced whenever I swallowed, and a shooting pain went up my left ear. I was helping to catheterize a cat at one point, and suddenly felt faint. Cheryl and Robin told me to go sit down ( Read more... )

Well, things are slowly getting sorted out. I have heard back from the landlord of the two bedroom apartment in Ridgetown, and he says I can have it just me, if I want, and that he'll let me know if anyone contacts him looking to room with me. I told him that would be perfect. I don't know yet if the place is air-conditioned, but at this point ( Read more... )

Okay, see, this is what I'm talking about. Remember how I said that my next month or so should suck to make up for my great time in Vancouver? Well, I've been stressed about where I'm going to live next year. There were vague hopes of finding a house with my cousin, but that's seeming less and less likely.  I do really like living on my own, so I ( Read more... )

Well, I'm back in the real world again, or at least, on my way there. Brief stop-over in Wolfville to be babied a bit by my parents (you know, because I've been a house-guest and consequently been cooked for and catered to for the last 9 days, so I obviously deserve a bit of babying) and to go to Suman's birthday dinner before heading back to the ( Read more... )
