I came across my grade 6 class picture a couple of days ago. I’m not in it for some reason. But as I looked from one student to the next, and remembered their names, each was accompanied by a short flash of memory. John Shaw: even though he grew up on a farm, he was [...] Updated, to add this earlier video of Jessica meeting her baby sister: I’ve always read the obituaries, ever since I was a little girl. Some people think it’s morbid, but I don’t. It’s not so much about looking for people I know, though there’s an element of that, of course. It’s mostly about gleaning what I can from the encapsulation of a person’s life in such a [...] I subscribe to a couple of job notification thingies, which send me daily emails letting me know about job openings in Ottawa.

I don’t find it a stretch at all [...] Today is the third day of a three-day migraine. I get them fairly often, and they’re pretty predictable. They’re not as bad as some people’s migraines; I don’t throw up or anything like that. I can function, more or less, as long as functioning doesn’t require a lot of motion or noise or strong light [...] Okay, now here’s some MAJOR news for you. Drum roll, please. BANJO CAN FLY! He turned one month old today, and he celebrated by flying off my finger while I was washing his face after breakfast. I was so surprised. I just assumed Piccolo would fly first, since he’s the oldest. And I thought it was [...] On Friday night, GC and I went to Elmak’s art show at La Petite Mort Gallery. I meant to tell you about it before the show, so you could go too, but unfortunately I dropped that ball. Elmaks is the street artist who created the Swap Boxes. The show was great, and GC bought a [...] |
