Yesterday, I had an interesting adventure, so I thought I’d share. Back a bit ago, Steve mentioned the Flash of Cash on Carden Street 2.0. I was pretty happy that there would be another one, because I’d missed the first one. So I planned to be on Carden Street at noon, and be part of …

If You Lost Your Keys In #Guelph, I Might Know What Happened To Them
I have to do this first. Ohmygod that was dumb ohmygod that was dumb ohmygod that was dumb. Ok. Movin’ right along. I was walkin’ along. Doo dee doo dee doo. I was walking with a friend, who is a very nice person. Suddenly, she spots something shiny. “Hey! Keys!” she exclaims. “Oh no! That …

Head Office Called Me About The Elevator
Bleh. That wasn’t the most wonderful update I’ve ever had. Williams and McDaniel called me back. And the short answer is they’re not going to do anything about the elevator’s alarm system. Until it totally and completely breaks, and they have to replace it with a new one, this alarm bell ringing to nowhere is …
Elevator Up…Date
Well, I have a small update to the elevator story. They were quite good about going up and down with me late at night and early in the morning, and by mid morning, the manager said things were fixed. For now, I think I feel safe in the elevator, although I catch myself trying to …
The Ballad Of Stompin’ Tom
I missed the All-Star game. I’m sure that makes me a bad baseball fan according to some rule or other, but if put in my position you’d do the same thing…at least you would if you’re not one to be eluded by sanity. I haven’t been the best at writing about all of the concerts …
Williams And McDaniel, Wake Up To The Alarm Bell
Goddamn it I’m shaking, and I didn’t go through anything super uber scary. I mean, I did, but on the scale, there are far worse things. But it’s been a little while, and I’m still sitting here, heart pounding, having trouble getting air. Here’s the scene. I’m taking Trix out to pee. It’s 30 degrees …

Happy Birthday, Canada!
Before we start, here’s your Canada related soundtrack. Perhaps I should have linked some Stompin’ Tom again since it looks like I’m going to see him live in a couple weeks, but this was the first song that popped into my brain. I love how I said before we get started as if I’ve got …
It’s Me! Remember Me?
I’m feeling all frazzled so maybe if I ramble, I can unfrazzle myself. I’m sitting here, time’s going tick tock, and my brain is screaming at a fever pitch “You have so many things to do! Do them! Do them now!” At the same time, an equally loud voice yells “But you either don’t have …
The Hupster Turned 2!
Well holy crap, the huppy is 2. He’s 2! I still think about him as a wee tiny baby. I still remember coming to see him when he was only hours old. Now he’s 2. And boy is he learning stuff. He’s really really talking. Now when he sees me, he tries to yell out …
This Would Be The Best Drive Ever
Last time I posted something about cars, it involved, as is so often the case around here, things not going well. This one, though, is exactly the opposite. I’m not generally the type to see one of those hey everybody, look at the blind guy live his life! It’s amazing! type stories and actually think …
