As I told Brittany through Facebook, after she posted a wonderful note regarding the trials and tribulations of being a cashier (there are many), here's where I'll type about a particular customer encounter with which I was NOT impressed. Sure there's difficult customers every day who do everything from asking for triple bagging, expect you… Continue reading Crazy Customer(s) (a semi-response to Brittany's note)

So a zillion congratulations are due to Heather and Jason, whose wedding reception was a fabulous time (I totally loved the chair game… if I ever have a wedding reception I totally want to play that one!). Many thanks to their friends who offered me a ride home afterward. Run for the Cure was excellent!… Continue reading The craziness of a busy life… oh and yes it's a good one!

Please go to https://www.cibcrunforthecure.com/html/p.asp?l=1&t=2349247 and donate if you can afford it (I do not support donating if it is going to put you in a bad financial position). This weekend has started off on a good-ish note. Yes, I am working a rather LOT of hours these days. Yes school work is hard (occasionally) to… Continue reading Run for the Cure is tomorrow!

So due to Murphy's law, we were unable to see the movie as planned last night… but I did find the time to have dinner and good conversation to catch up with a friend instead. It worked out quite splendidly all things considered! Did I mention that I'm the undergraduate editor for Fait Accomplit this… Continue reading Things don't always end up as planned…

I won what I assume is a double guest pass to an advance screening of Shake Hands with the Devil at South Edmonton Cinemas for Thursday the 27th at 7pm. Now, while I very much want to be in several places at once, I'm thinking that if someone would like to join me to see… Continue reading Want to see Shake Hands with the Devil?

Yet another weekend of fun and craziness… This time this meant seeing a great play (on ethics of Art and Science, called Should've which I totally recommend to everyone involved in either art or science or essentially living on planet Earth), going to the gym for the first time in what seems like months, working… Continue reading Weekend=Far too little sleep

Finally. After so many years of thinking about it, since I've always wanted to participate in a run/walk for charity, and after donating to many others' runs/walks and volunteering behind the scenes, I finally took the plunge myself! I'm excited (though this is almost last minute)! Wish me luck, and donate if you can! 🙂… Continue reading Run for the Cure

Ahh… yes another school year… and this means more readings to do (pleasant ones, really. I just finished reading Ami McKay's The Birth House which was excellent!). I love it when I got $135 of my textbooks free (gift certificates for bookstore, Chapters and Amazon.com)… and lookee here, I've won another book in the mail… Continue reading School's back (evidently) and I'm buried in (fun) books! 🙂

So, it's the busiest weekend of the year at work now (or one of 'em, given that all the students are back in town), so I'm inevitably working loads of hours (yay for cash!)… and of course it's also a busy weekend outside of work and school prep. Yeah… so, I had the joy of… Continue reading It's been a BUSY long weekend.

So as much as the Fringe festival is over and I THOUGHT that I'd be done Fringing for the season, Ramona has invited me to two holdovers today. I saw The Creation of the World and Other Business this afternoon and will be seeing God's Eye tonight. The beginning of a very busy (work AND… Continue reading Even More Fringing! 😮
