Jeff and I are just back from collecting the Mr. Two from Dundas Street, where it was parked overnight after we hung out at Jim’s party. Keith came along as well. A substantial chunk of Jim’s old band was there and they backed me up on Buy Me A Beer, which I managed to get [...]

Mom and baby moose. A plug for the hilariously named Reifel Bird Sanctuary. I have learned I can still apply for my FAC (the gun licence thing). I am going to. My to do list is growing like a six foot across amoeba while I watch in hor-ror. So what am I going to do [...]

Katie Paul and Keith picked me up from work yesterday and I drove them home and fed them spaghetti. KATIE HAS A MOHAWK. She looks awesome. But it’s not one of those mohawks where you cut hair, it was mostly made out of hairspray. She also got supergoth makeup. I should post pics when I [...]

In direct contravention of the breeder’s request, I am letting her out on the back deck. This is made easier by the fact that she comes back in when you call her. I don’t want to get her a collar but I will have to now that she is going outside. She and Gizmo ate next [...]

Adding to my list of woes is a leg cramp that tossed me unceremoniously, swearing under my breath, out of bed at 3 this morning. It sure gets your attention when that happens. We’re still waiting for the new gal to start, it’s apparently going to be Thursday now.

Woke up at 3 this morning, which strikes me as being a rather dirty trick on my sensorium. I really took it easy this weekend, and I am happy to say that my left foot no longer hurts.

Darwin was adorable, and it was very pleasant to watch Keith interact with him for the first time. Lexi fed us roast chicken and oven roasted potatoes and salad and asparagus. Katie sluiced back quite a bit of wine; I managed to hold the line at a single beer. Today I roasted a beast and [...]

I am quite sure all the bars in town breathed a sigh of relief. Click here for an amazing assortment of zoo pictures from around the world. Paul stopped by on his way back into town. His sis and bro-in-law are doing famously – she is starting to do doula work in rural Alberta, which [...]
