I know, I know…lots of videos lately. I’m working on getting some actual content, really – I am! At any rate, Game of Thrones has started its new season (no, I haven’t seen it yet), so I figured I’d share this little gem that I found on (you guessed it) YouTube 🙂
Do you like Comic and Entertainment conventions? Are you in Calgary? Do you knit? The Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo will be taking place at our Stampede grounds from April 24th through April 27th. The Husbeast and I have weekend tickets purchased and will be going to say hi to friends and get a good […]
I’ve been wanting “TARDIS mittens” for awhile now. I looked online and found mittens decorated as Tardises (Tardi?), and mittens decorated with Tardises (what is the plural on that, anyhow?). I just didn’t find what I was looking for. There was one front-runner, but I quickly found myself ripping it back and starting all over […]
I love the weekend. Well…I guess I should specify that as “days off”. As I generally work shifts, I don’t always get a traditional weekend, where the work week ends by 5pm on Friday afternoon and starts again by 9am on Monday. Even so, today’s Tuesday Ten is all about favourite things to do on […]
Today’s Ten on Tuesday is all about September. To be exact, the ten things you love about September. Kids are going back to school Not so much an issue for the Husbeast and I since we don’t have children, but it does mean that for some things, the neighbourhood is quieter. When you work shifts […]
I got to go on my first Full Moon Ride tonight! Robin and I loaded up Frankie and Elwood (our Pashleys) and headed downtown to meet up with the group. I can now say that having a C-Train stop two or three blocks away from the house is very convenient. We met up with Chelsea […]
It’s time for the Ten on Tuesday yet again! This time the subject is one I can get behind…’Ten TV shows from your Childhood”. As a member of the very first generation to have that much exposure to TV during early development, this one should be a breeze. I grew up mainly in Ontario, where […]
Apparently this week’s Ten on Tuesday is “Favourite Ways to Eat Tomatoes“. Considering I’m not a vegetarian (and thus have a certain kind of “veggie-fu”), this may be limited. Why? 1. Because I don’t drink Tomato juice. So you won’t catch me eating them that way. 2. And I tend to limit my bread, so […]
There’s an old joke that men see the world in basic colours, and that women specialize. That is to say, guys see pink, green and blue, and women see puce, chartreuse and teal. Full disclosure here…my whole freakin’ family went to art college, so if one of us doesn’t know what puce, chartreuse and teal […]
It’s been awhile since I did one of these… Today’s Friday Five is all about Fading. What’s something in your possession whose color has obviously faded? — numerous pairs of socks. Particularly the Koigu handpaints. I absolutely love the colours, but they fade so quickly! And, unfortunately, this yarn tends to wear thin quickly, so […]
