This morning, I was struck by how paranoid some blinks are about being robbed. Maybe I’ve just been extremely lucky or something, but I don’t understand this intense fear. I’m on a listserve for people who want to talk about the Talks program, the thing that makes my cellphone talk. I forget how this whole …

Am I Weird For Thinking This Is Funny?
I had this happen to me the other day when I took that big walk, and woohoo, didn’t meet my doom by falling down a giant hole in the street or getting creamed by a Tim Horton’s customer because I mocked God. Anyway, I got to an intersection, and for some reason, it was kinda …
Think Of The Children…Or I’ll Punt You In The Nuts
I love it when unrest happens right in my own back yard, though I guess in my case it would be parking lot. I was typing something up a few minutes ago when what sounded like a commotion caught my attention, so I stepped out to investigate. I’m glad I did, because we now have …

>I Don’t Know…Stuff!
>I’ve been meaning to write this thought pile down for a while, but for some reason, I just couldn’t get started. Even now, it isn’t flowing like it usually does. Oh well, hopefully it will pick up before it’s done. I can’t believe I’m halfway through that French class I joined. Things are going very …
Um, Oops
Wow! Without even meaning to, I just broke a kid’s heart! Hopefully I managed to put it back together. I took Trixie out for her usual business routine. As we come out the door, we usually go up to the left into the bushes. If we cut to the left too soon, we hit a …
Parlez-Vous Français?
Remember back when I said I was going to take a conversational French class? Well, today I started it, and although we had a couple of bumps, I think dear old French teacher and I are going to get along fine. First, let me describe my entrance to the class, because it was, well, unceremonious. …
Either Phones Are Getting Worse, Or I’m A Chronic Mumbler.
This has happened to me twice now. I ordered two different things from the states from two different companies, and I ordered them both over the phone. In both cases, when I said Guelph, they wrote down “Guelth!” I even spelled it, and they still thought my p was a t! Do I mumble that …

You Do, I Do, Everyone Everywhere Loves, The Spring
Did anyone else have to sing that little ditty for the music festival? Did anyone else wonder what a hey ding-a-ding was? Apologies for butchering the spelling, I can’t find the lyrics anywhere! I can’t remember if it had some kind of weird title, but typing in the few bits I remember from when I …

Heavy On Confusion, Light On Logic
Explain this logic to me. You go to a store and buy some things. You have a backpack on. You say you’d like to put the things you bought in the backpack so your hands will be free. The people at the store help you put a bunch of stuff in the backpack, and then …
Do You Hear What I Hear? I Hope So.
Remember when I said that I thought evolution was removing people’s ability to see? Now I think they’re losing their ability to listen. People can hear, but they just can’t process what they’re hearing worth a shit. Here’s one example. I went into the post office. I told the lady that I had to mail …
