I just added two more widgets to my dashboard (this PC girl is thinkin her Mac’s lookin’ cooler all the time). The first is a default flight tracker that came with my dashboard, which is coming in handy with my in-laws in the air right now. The second is a newly-added Cup Companion, keeping you […]

I have the place to myself today for the first time in… oh about 18 months. John‘s working a gig today, which I’m sure he’ll blog about later so I won’t ruin it here. We both woke up at 5 am on a Saturday, I made him some toast and sent him on his way. […]

Most people know how “fun” it is to drive around the Lower Mainland. Sometimes I think it was a great move to sell my car in 2005, especially on weekends like this. Between festivals, the Sun Run on Sunday and the usual road work, the city is going to be pretty painful to maneuver around […]

Open up today’s Province and you’ll see my mug, complete with my Fin puppet on page A4. I’m the Canucks Fan of the Day and you can be too (ooh!) The Province is going absolutely nuts, just like the rest of this city. You can get your player poster in the paper every day and […]

The camera man just called the producer and said, “I’m sitting here with a bunch of donuts and a nice lady,” the person on the other end of the phone replied “what a nice combination.” The CBC contacted me a few days ago about a post I had written, it just so happens that it’s […]

This it is folks, the fabled audio from the Open Practice is now up for your listening pleasure in Episode 27. It includes all of us (IN PERSON) in roundtable chat, various remarks and comments on the actual practice, the season in review and for a special treat, we have the story behind Cowan the […]

After making a post about the Bowmac sign [mbv], I knew there was more that I wanted to say, but with a slightly different and more personal twist. It all has to do with the Fred Herzog exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery, which has been the talk of the town for several months. [Herzog] […]

I usually leave the hockey blogging to the professionals, but I have to make mention here since this is indeed Miss604’s Canuck Life. Yes, I’m a hockey fan, that ain’t a coincidence, and I’m pretty freakin stoked about our boys going to the playoffs. Vancouver’s playoff spot is assured, so now it’s just a matter […]

I was reading Airdrie’s blog post about not joining Twitter [wiki], where she links to a Rocketboom video about how annoyingly addictive the service can be. I decided to start Googling around found a couple funny Twitter spoofs. Now I’ve never been a huge Star Wars [wiki] fan, and I have been blogging all night […]

At 1:10 am I fell for a prank. I was all sleepy snuggly on the couch until I got up to check my computer one last time before bed. There on my screen was a random IM that freaked the pants off me. I perked up, told John what I had just read, then tried […]
