I thought I’d mention a couple of things that really make Tansy leap for joy. The first is anything that comes from a website called www.biopaw.com. They sell all kinds of natural dog treats, but the thing that makes her go most nuts of all are things called Bullwrinkles! Brad got Trix interested in them, …

Scary Dog Nicknames
I’ve noticed a disturbing trend I’ve started with at least Trixie and Tansy. I don’t think I had Babs long enough for her to be part of it. I have given them nicknames that are, or sound close to, nasty diseases! One day, Trixie was being extra sniffy. We were on a bus and she …
See Ya, 2013
Here, have a trippy soundtrack. So it’s New Year’s Eve. In a few short hours, this year will be completely in the bag. I had to write 2014 on a cheque today…man that was weird. I hope next year brings all kinds of awesomeness, health and happiness to everybody. I’m not sure 2014 is starting …
Tansy’s First Christmas and Other Things
So…we made it through Christmas. Today was a day of *flop*. I don’t know why this Christmas was so exhausting, but wow. I must be getting old. I’m posting these pictures of Tansy with Santa for two reasons: first, so they can be up for all to see, and second, pleasepleaseplease tell me I fixed …
Merry…Christmas?
So um, guys? Where did 2013 go? Who ate it? It feels like we’re just getting warmed up, but here we are, getting ready for Christmas. Exactly how did that happen? I started writing this yesterday when we were in the middle of one hell of an ice storm, in which the cops are telling …
So There’s A New Diet Chip…Mmm…Chips…
I heard about the possibility of a computer chip to help people diet, and even though I can see what they’re going for, the part of me that’s studied psychology and watched Sci Fi movies gets a wee smidge freaked out. So this chip is supposed to send a signal, based on your blood fat …
Abraham Nemeth-Life=So Long
I meant to write about this back when it happened in October, but did I? Nope. I read that Dr. Abraham Nemeth, inventor of the Nemeth Code, had dide. My first thought was “Nemeth Code is that recent?” Braille feels so old, even though in the grand scheme of things it’s not, that I assumed …
Will The Turtle Be Unbroken?
What is it about this song about a falling turtle that never stops making me chuckle? Also, don’t you think the guy sounds like Ed robertson from Barenaked Ladies? Don’t know who that is? now you do. It’s been almost a month, and I’m still going to it so I can chuckle again. I’m easily …
What Are Ya’ At? A Great Big Sea Concert
Oh my head. My head is an unhappy head. But hey, it was worth it. Soundtrack time. We went to see Great Big Sea last night. I just wish our old friend Shoe was with us…that would have made it much cooler. But as it was, it was one awesome show. I’m sad their tour …
Wacky Dreams And Common Themes
Gill’s talk about the Sesame Street pinball song made me dig, root and search for Steve’s post where he mentions the thing. Good thing I did, since the damn video he linked to has been pulled, so I had to find another one. That was four years ago? Where is my life going? But Gill’s …
