I CAN'T FOCUS JUST WANT OUT OF INTERNSHIP AND ONTO PAID EMPLOYMENT.
Which is too bad, because I have loved my internship. But starting to spin my wheels a bit here. And do not want to stuff any more envelopes. EVER. -
I am not a cyclist.
This morning I took the plunge (oh, how literally indeed) and cycled to work. I knew downtown was downhill from where I live, but I just hadn’t realized quite how steeply downhill it was. I seriously feared for my life as I wound around curvy hills and other cyclists blew by me. I was riding my brakes, dude! I was scared!
Once I got ( Read more... ) -
I resolve to write.
Well, okay. Now that I've got stalkers/fans/people I know reading this, I really ought to actually write things in it. See, this journal isn't really for writing in, but for keeping up with others' journals and communities and such. I have a private journal for personal-type things and the social issues I'm passionate about. I have been thinking ( Read more... ) -

On Friday night, Craig and I came home from a dinner date. He disappeared for a moment and reappeared with one hand behind his back and a small smile.

Happy Choice in Canada Day!

However, we must never think that the fight for choice is over. ( Read more... ) -
Blogging for choice, USA-style.
Today is Blog for Choice Day in the US, in recognition of the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion in the United States. Because I’m in Canada, I’m choosing to Blog for Choice on January 30, the 20th anniversary of the Morgentaler decision which legalized abortion in Canada. I don’t know what I’ll write about, yet.

I fail at RP.
So Craig talked me into trying online role-play. Nooo, not the “adult” kind! - this is an online community that hosts message boards where people play fantasy games, science fiction games, even Pokemon games …
He plays a “g-d game” in which the players are g-ds or goddesses, ruling a realm of people. I would sometimes ask him how the game was going ( Read more... ) -
The 2007 Survey.
1. What did you do in 2007 that you'd never done before?
Moved across the country. Started grad school. Worked the best job of my life. Had allergy testing and ate peanuts, walnuts and mangoes.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't think I made any. The only one I'm going to make this year is to be ( Read more... )
