Music Monday – “Let us stray till break of day in love’s valley of dreams/Just you and I, a summer sky, a heavenly breeze kissin’ the trees
I honestly never knew this song had lyrics until I started putting together this post… “Moonlight Serenade” – Glenn Miller Orchestra
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Moving Home (December 2006)
When I was accepted for grad school, we were pretty lucky to find an apartment that a young woman was giving up (I think she’d done a semester and became a “Christmas grad”) so when I started my program in January, we were not only able to assume her lease but buy out a lot […]
Did Dusty Rhodes’ Son Just Equal His Dad’s Best Promo?
In wrestling, Ric Flair had a character as a rich, arrogant, entitled asshole and one of his main rivals was Dusty Rhodes, a schlubby working man who was the “son of a plumber.” During one of their many feuds, Dusty delivered what is widely regarded as one of, if not the greatest, wrestling promos of […]

It created a pretty magical “snow globe” effect at the Heritage Classic last night, continued to fall through the night and it’s always a bit of a judgement call but it feels like it’s time to do my annual post of this song as it feels like the snow is here to stay again for […]

Pretty cool experience to go to the Flames Heritage Classic game in Regina with my Calgary cousins and our dads.
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Go Flames Go (April 2004 Stanley Cup Run)
I’m super excited for the Heritage Classic outdoor NHL game (first regular season NHL game in a non-NHL city ever!) on Saturday night at Mosaic Stadium. I’ve always been a Flames fan since I have a lot of family in Calgary but they were my second favourite team, at least until we moved to Calgary […]
