Wow.

I owe you one Kelly!

I've just watched Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog and I am totally in love.

This is all because of madhowan's crazy icons that had me perplexed and, when I asked what the hell "shiny new Australia" was all about, first heard about Joss Whedon's short movie.

We were at Big Daddy's looking for a movie to watch (rented Toronto Stories ( Read more... )

Last night I had a dream that I was back home and all the footy teams had changed. Like they'd gone through all these new mergers and changed their colours and stuff, and I didn't recognise any of them anymore. I mean, I don't even really follow the AFL but I think the point was how far removed I am, over here, and how things do change but I'm not ( Read more... )

So I missed out on seeing the nude cyclists on Saturday. Yeah you heard me. About 100 men and women completely in the buff cycled down one of the busiest streets in Toronto, for the World Naked Bike Ride, which is "a celebration of cycling, a protest against car culture, a comment on pollution, or just to express some exhibitionist tendencies."

Does anyone know how to add just a banner to your LJ? You know, a design for the top of the page. I've found some people who make them and all, but I can't figure out how to add a banner on its own.

This is for giraffedays, I wanted to make it pretty :)

After much nagging from a sis who refuses to visit me here on LJ, I have caved and joined Facebook. Not sure how I feel about that, but I do get left out because everyone except my Dad is on Facebook! We'll see how it goes, and whether I can figure out what the hell's going on. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of structure to it. In many ways, ( Read more... )

Today is officially my last day of OISE. My B.Ed is finished, in two weeks there'll be a graduation ceremony which I'm not going to 'cause I hate those things, and by the end of June I should have my teaching qualification. YAY! Won't feel like I've finished until I get that ( Read more... )

I have 1400 books! I only wish I could read as fast as I can buy them. I'm hanging on till this weekend, trying not to buy anything, because Chapters is having a kind-of sale, an increased discount for members. Well I can't resist that! I'll have to give myself a limit though, so I don't go overboard. I owe Maria a book too ( Read more... )

It's a GIRL!!!!!! I have a NIECE!!!!!!

Yay! I mentioned in my last post that she was due anytime now. Well, my sister Fer just had her baby, hasn't been weighed yet or anything but Fer is well and the baby's healthy and, in her husband's words, they're not going to throw her back! :D

*jumps up and down and whoops to no one 'cause she's home all

Some exciting not-quite-news: my big sister will be giving birth anytime now! I know, it'll be news when she actually has the baby, but still, it's exciting to me!! I think it's actually Monday there now, so it won't be a Mother's Day baby ( Read more... )
