Okay, so you know how normal people get crushes on other people? I think I get them on places. Like, in July, I was crushing über hard on Winnipeg. And then it was the English countryside, though I didn't tell you about that. Possibly because there was no cell phone reception, let alone Internet access. Anyway, now it's all about Canada.

Lesson learned: I'm not so good with the whole teenage debauchery scene ( Read more... )

I think I have a crush on Winnipeg. It's one of those awkward, annoying crushes when you're pretty sure people will judge you for not liking the right person or whatever. Because, I mean, it's Winnipeg. It's a doughnut city. It's in the middle of the Canadian prairies, and it's at least a twenty-four hour drive to get to Van-city, TO or MTL. It's ( Read more... )

I like Winnipeg, I really do. I mean, it has a beautiful prairie sky (honestly, these clouds just don't happen in TO), and Stella's smoothies are to die for (though not their new soy milk version... OJ all the way), and the whole wheat cinnamon buns at Tall Grass Prairie are so good that we ship two dozen home each visit, and the Asper Centre ( Read more... )

So I've been continuing with my domestic binge... Each morning starts with an hour and a half of sewing (my seams are getting straighter!) and then I'll either run and/or do yoga, and then I'll write something and then it's time to get supper ready (side note: I'm enjoying calling it supper rather than dinner lately). But the Tiber Valley Girl who ( Read more... )

Today was most domestic. I sewed. I went grocery shopping. I used the oven/stove (what's the difference?) without burning down the house. I'm quite impressed with myself. I actually quite enjoyed it ( Read more... )

So I was reading booksnchocolate's LJ (I don't know how to tag people here, and maybe I don't want to) and it was interesting. It was my sporadic rando babbles on nothing but regular rando babbles on stuff. So I'm a gonna give it a try ( Read more... )

I saw my first CanStage play yesterday, and am disappointed by its mediocrity. It was rather long and had an elaborate set and the acting was decent but the script sort of sucked. Well, it didn't, but it was just so predictable (I'd guessed most of the second act, including the lesbian subplot, by the intermission), and the moments were supposed to ( Read more... )

Happy New Year! It's twenty-ten, and we graduate in about six and a half months, which is absolutely ridiculous. And while we're speaking of ridiculousity, I'm a-gonna babble about... well, is babble really ever about anything? But The Venerable sent me his babble, and then Banania replied, and I don't want to be left out. Right ( Read more... )
