For those of you who don't know, I spent the last week of July with smallstar in New York. It was fantabulous, and we definitely need to go back and like run tours or something. We're remarkably good at finding famous places and the best. food. evar. I'll post pics ... um... sometime?

After that, I want to the Toronto area and stayed with kelayrel and Chris and ( Read more... )

So I've been busy for the last month or two ( Read more... )

So, I've made a few changes of late.

I was told a while ago at work that I'd be teaching again by March 1st. Actually, to be more accurate, I told them that I'd be teaching again by March 1st. I told them this mid-January, giving them six weeks to find someone to replace me as director, a position that I loathe with every fibre of my being ( Read more... )

Alright, it's been a month. I guess that means that I should update this thing again, right?

First, and most importantly, I'm moving. Again. Don't worry, I'm not leaving the country or anything (yet, though I really, really want to). I'm just moving out of my (formerly) mice-infested, (currently) loud-sex-from-upstairs-filled, (still) too cold ( Read more... )

Life back at work is, as expected, rather craptacular. I've taken an important step in protecting my sanity, though. I've told the powers that be that if they don't find a new director by March 1st, I'm going to have to quit. Honestly, I'd rather be unemployed than deal with the crap I've had to deal with in the last two weeks ( Read more... )

I have now experienced the joy of using an "airsickness receptacle."

This is a joy that I could gladly have avoided for the duration of my life.

On the plus side, I got two whole cans of gingerale out of the deal.

Who ever thought homesickness could be so... chunky.        (yeah, I went totally went there)

One thing that was instilled in me as a child was a propensity to be early. Being on time will do, in a pinch. Lateness is unthinkable ( Read more... )

I'm leeeeeeeeaving ON a jet-plane!

I'll be in Ontario tonight. Let the weirding-out begin!

(remember to give me lots of hugs and sanity)

That movie was bad. I mean BAD. I don't just want my money back. I want back the two hours of my life that were wasted in that movie theatre. A part of my soul died while I watched that movie. I feel as if my very life were cheapened for having seen that film. My eyes rolled so many times I'm surprised they didn't actually leave my skull, which ( Read more... )

I was on the very edge of quitting, yesterday.

...But I'm getting ahead of myself.
