I used to make CDs all the time... At least one a month, plus whenever we were going somewhere, whenever we were having people round...
I used to write here all the time, almost every day, it meant a lot to me.

For some reason tonight I feel pretty melancholy for all the things I used to do, and the people I used to love...

I am even thinking about ( Read more... )

I have been meaning to write for weeks (like 5) but I always seem to be too busy or too tired. Am just wrapping up (and FTPing a work project that has been taking up a lot of my time) I can never fully allow myself to relax when I have something hanging over my head- even when I am procrastinating that very thing.

In the past few weeks my boss has ( Read more... )

Am listening to a youtube video but not watching it... A Christine Ebersole song from 'Grey Gardens'... she has little Edie's voice perfect ( Read more... )

I've been so inconsistent writing here... I have no excuse really, have just been busy at work and doing work stuff at home and etc ( Read more... )

France:
We got to Paris in the evening and walked to our hotel from the Arc de Triomphe. I was pretty excited to be there... I'm not sure why, I guess because it was so different and I'd never really thought I would ever go there. As soon as we walked into the hotel a huge deal was made that there were 3 of us. I agreed to a 40 Euro room upgrade ( Read more... )

One of the first things I did when I got back to Canada was to buy Jann Arden's new album. (Which is a pretty quintessentially Canadian thing to do.) So I have been listening to that pretty much all the time. Since it has been in my car, L hadn't heard it before today when I put it on for her: "I think you'll find it suitably depressing". I love ( Read more... )

Just before we left (and possibly as an effect of working 14 days in a row) I started to wonder whether the vacation was worth the money we were spending on it (L and I each spent $5000) I started kind of wishing I'd bought a Vespa, even up to the minute we left (and I left the dogs) and Esp. when L, T and I were crammed on the flight to London and ( Read more... )

I don't think I have ever had such a difficult time adjusting timewise to being home. I still am not switched over & am fairly certain I could fall asleep now except I promised some workmates I'd go out later.

As much as I tried not to think about work on my vacation, I did a little. The final handover (my boss  leaving) took place while I was gone ( Read more... )

 Could not be any more tired. (Well, probably could.) Work was ok...  A gave Denise his ipod (she was looking to buy another one.) She quite favours him now, and it seems is very focused on him, so it will be good for me when she is finally gone. I feel like I might be getting a bit burnt out. Today was the first of a 12 day stretch... even my ( Read more... )
