Well Excuse Me For Being A Good Customer!
I've wanted an iPhone for awhile. Provided my endeavours at Ottawa Fringe were profitable, my plan was to treat myself to one this summer. The timing seems good, as the release of iPhone 3GS drove the price of the 3G to just below a hundred bucks ( Read more... ) -

Fringe Wrap-Up
My Fringe experience ended on a high note. Audiences voted Oreo Best in Venue. Our award was an extra performance on Sunday evening. Given an ill-timed deluge of rain that started right as the final box office opened, I was pleased that a few dozen bodies made it out for our final show ( Read more... ) -

(By "caught a glimpse", I mean stared at myself intently for several minutes). I'm looking awfully cutesy: white, cotton "Oreo" t-shit, flouncy white mini-skirt and heels. If ( Read more... ) -
Extra! Extra! This is NOT empowering!
Everything...everything about this article pisses me off!
I have to assume that this is the latest in the proliferation of media pieces promoting "healthy body image." Unfortunately, once again they've got it all wrong.

Huh?
Me: Mowing the lawn. Appropriately dressed down for the task at hand. Green cap that says "Alaska" and has a picture of a bear perched atop head. Sweaty and covered with grass shavings.
Passerby In Car: Honks. Stops car. Says, "Looking good, cutie!" Drives away.
Me: Confused as to whether shouting was mocking or a come on. Undecided as to ( Read more... )
