So yesterday was busy: I went and did the Shinerama thing in the morning, went to a meeting in the afternoon and went to the Sleeping Bag Drive In in Quad in the evening. Gosh how I love the movie V for Vendetta… each time I've seen it, I've really enjoyed it! Serenity on the… Continue reading More gobbley gook from Ali's life 🙂

So… apparently I won 100 books from McClelland and Stewart… I can't wait for them all to arrive. I'm such a huge CanLit fan, so this'll be so utterly fantastic! 🙂 I've been going to the World Health Club… which has been crazy fun! I did a spinning class which felt remarkably good, although I… Continue reading News from the first week! 🙂

So today, I stood at the clubs fair table for CKI for quite some time. Apparently I was a rather successful recruiter (thanks to the ICON workshop and of course Dave Kelly who presented it I would presume), so much that the pastor who sat at the nearby table struck up conversation with me several… Continue reading School Starts tomorrow… and notes on the excercise adventures 🙂

So I've finally finished reading the 6 books assigned for the best of the year reader panel for Elle magazine. Such a variety… each of which has made me think of different things. One of which is friendship. You know what? I've been doing a remarkably bad job of keeping in touch with all of… Continue reading hmmm… friendship

So Grace's black cherry themed potluck party tonight seemed a resounding success, at least to my amateur eyes. Sure, I almost didn't remember to write down the address (well, it doesn't help that my computer decided temporarily that starting up without freezing wasn't an option except in safe mode where the internet didn't work… of… Continue reading On Black Cherry themes

Yesterday's day off was an exciting day of reading, relaxing, and cleaning. Sometimes I just need days like that. Of course a lot of it had to do with the return of my symptoms of my cold. I really really hope my sore throat and stuffy nose goes away soon!! Summer colds are not much… Continue reading Updates from Ali's world

Somehow I think that things are going to be a-okay. Sure I've a lot of uncertainty regarding life — who doesn't? But you know what? The sun is shining, and there's simply so much possibility in the everyday day-to-day. Yesterday's work shift felt remarkably good (YES we're short staffed. YES I'd like more co-workers. If… Continue reading Life directions…

So I didn't sleep well last night. This isn't unusual lately, but I really hope that it doesn't become a habit, as I really hate staring at the clock at so many intervals throughout the night. Surprisingly even when I was playing frisbee with Tom this morning I didn't feel terribly tired. Now however, after… Continue reading Tired… really tired

So today, I've been infernally sore. All day. So sore in fact that this morning I didn't want to get out of bed and just rested there daydreaming until the realization that I ought to rise and shine struck me… I nearly never do that — stay in bed for so long, regardless of how… Continue reading Sore as all get out… and why??

… for the first time ever, and had an utterly great time! Now, not only am I sore in the shoulders (the way I woke up) and in the shins (from standing all day at work) but I hurt more due to tiredness and two-steppin'! Somethin' tells me that if it was that much fun… Continue reading Went to Cook County…
