Right. Last week sucked, but it was my own damn fault. We won't be doing that again. Anyway. Things have been Fixed and I am relatively sane again, so that's nice. I am, however, saddened that for some reason, New York gets slammed by snow and Toronto is missed completely. I'm not asking for a storm, but a couple of centimetres would be nice just ( Read more... )

I was supposed to have my specialist appointment today. The one I've been waiting for since May. So I get there and am in the middle of my pre-interview with the nurse when the receptionist calls the nurse out. Apparently, the doctor is sick today and won't be coming in. New appointment is for November 4. Which is better than another six months ( Read more... )

So, I hear it's snowing places. Like a blizzard or something. You know where that isn't? Canada. (Except Whitehorse, but I mean come on. It's Whitehorse.) Oh Mother Nature, you so crazy!

List 10 of your current favorite songs. Then tag 10 people and have them post this meme in their journal.

I have been tagged twice for this meme so I'd better do it! If you don't already know, I warn you that my musical tastes tend to be less than current and eclectic.

I have the "Wicked" soundtrack in German.

Random tidbit of the day:

I thought I hated Nightwish. Turns out I actually hate Tarja Turunen, as Nightwish's latest CD, with a brand new singer, is actually pretty damn good.

It's odd when people you know reach a modicum of fame. It's not entirely new to me, I've mentioned before the girls I wrestled with who have all made it to the big time.

But hey, if you've seen the commercials for the new TV series The Black Donnellys? That song playing, the slow, rocky kind of one with bagpipes? That's a local Toronto band ( Read more... )

Last night, much fun was had seeing Imogen Heap. I don't really go to concerts anymore, but I've liked her since she released her first album almost 10 years ago, so I thought why not ( Read more... )

Wicked rocked. Megan Hilty and Shoshanna Bean awesome. Was only female Dorothy in audience, from what we could tell. This does not mean I was the only one there. Pictures to follow.

There was someone dressed as the Yellow Brick Road. I repeat: Someone was dressed as the Yellow Brick Road. Because it was just that brilliant. And yes, he kept ( Read more... )
