9/11 Tragedies in Sarnia, AKA bad things *do* come in threes.
9/11 was a really bad day for news in our neck of the woods. First off, a nine-year old boy biking home from school was hit and killed by a dump truck. Secondly, a motorcyclist in the boonies died in an accident with a truck. And thirdly, there was a murder-suicide in a local park (not too far from the casino, it happened just as I started my shift ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
In honour of seeing The Simpsons Movie earlier today (and I thoroughly enjoyed it, best Simpsons I've seen in ages), I tried that "Simpsonizer" on one of my pics. Though I honestly don't think it looks much like me. Oh well. -
Women Fully Clothed show
Well, earlier tonight I took in the Women Fully Clothed show at the Imperial Theatre. The cast were all terrific, Deb McGrath, Kathy Greenwood (*blissful sigh*), Robin Duke, Teresa Pavlinek, Jayne Eastwood. I had a pretty damn good seat; fifth row back, basically dead centre. Sadly my addled brain can't remember any quotes at all from the show, but ( Read more... ) -
The sitcom(s) that is my life. :)
My LiveJournal SitcomAs The ejumean Turns (LIFETIME, 6:30): ejumean (John Travolta) unknowingly gets high before a meeting with jesperanda (Jenna Elfman). Also, jeffyb1 (Cybill Shepherd) and wonderleafy (Tommy Lee Jones) go waterskiing. The next day, jjloa (Michael Moore)'s new shirt bleeds in the wash and stains all of lcdating (Scott Bakula)'s ( Read more... ) -
I love springtime...
I've noticed something since losing Trigger. Our backyard has become more of a wildlife sanctuary. :) We've got a lot more squirrels, as well as a few chipmunks, and a rabbit who's been hanging around the front and back yard for the last few days. And of course birds. Lots and lots of birds ( Read more... ) -
The Masterson Inheritance - The Lost Episode
"Masterson" is one of my all-time favourite British radio series. And I had heard that among the 20 episodes that were broadcast, there was one additional episode that remained unaired, and I presumed to be lost. Well, I've managed to track it down! It can be found on Jim Sweeney's website (www.jimsweeney.co.uk). Here's a direct link to the episode ( Read more... ) -
Update....
Just a small update on how I'm doing since putting Trigger to sleep on Wednesday. Yesterday ended up being my day of grieving. A friend took me out to lunch, and I was okay at the time. But around dinner time, I happened to look out the window to the backyard, and suddenly the realization that Trigger was really gone hit me like a ton of bricks, ( Read more... ) -
Trigger's Rainbow
I thought I'd share the pic I took of the rainbow -- which I like to think Trigger sent to me to let me know he's okay now -- what can I say, I'm sentimental like that. I played around with the pic to try and make the rainbow stand out a bit, and I actually like the way the trees now appear to have ethereal "halos" around it.

R.I.P. Trigger (May 12, 1997 - May 09, 2007)
In the last day or two, Trigger took a major turn for the worse. Two days ago I went with a family friend to see him at the doctor's house. He still wasn't able to get up of his own accord, but with assistance was able to stand for a while and walk a few steps. This friend offered to keep Trigger at his house until my folks returned from BC on the ( Read more... )
