(This is an older photo of Shea as I was trying to capture the “party” aspect of the post title more than the “getting old. aspect.) With that said, if you want to see some pics of how “the belly” is coming along, she has a Flickr account with more current photos! Sorry for any […]
I saw someone in London complaining on their blog or Facebook profile because they had to go to school when it was -12. All I can say is please look at the “feels like” line on the screencap below. Also “please don't ever whine about -12 again!” Being a good Saskatchewanite, -41 didn't stop me […]
Nurses, rightfully so, have one of the highest trust/respect ratings of any profession in society. But like any profession, they're not immune to frustrations with their patients.
Here's a humourous look at some of them via a forwarded e-mail my mom (a nurse) sent to Shea (also a nurse):
This is a bit of an old story by now but Time magazine recently named “You” as their “Person of the Year”. Many people reacted to the decision negatively saying it was a cop-out and the ultimate gimmick to sell magazines from a magazine that arguably hadn't chosen the proper newsmaker of the year since […]
UWO had a snow day today and were recommending that no one come to the campus unless necessary. So of course Shea and I decided to take a walk this afternoon to check things out. This is the path behind our apartment leading to the University Jason helps Shea relax (by pushing her into the […]
Tonight, one of my favourite Britpop bands, The Beautiful South is playing in Toronto.

I'd thought about going but between all the work I'm trying to get done (even though it's research week) […]
Shea and I whipped into Toronto today to attend the Baby and Toddler Show this afternoon. A bit disappointing in terms of the number of exhibitors but this is probably a case of us being really early in the pregnancy mixed with the fact that they weren't giving out free books like the last time […]
(Hint: It's the one on the left. The other one is pregnant with beer, pizza and Cheetos…unfortunately.) It's faint but the plus sign is there!
Does this handsome devil look familiar? Spent a few hours working on the family history project I have to do for my genealogy class last night. Luckily, not one but two of my family members have done some research so that's a big help. I'm still waiting for one to send me her stuff but […]
Went over to David & Sabina's on Saturday for a wicked supper. Shea took one of her specialties, I took some Bushwakker beer I'd been saving since mom and dad were here. Here's the recipe for Shea's (I don't have the recipe for the beer but wish I did!) Spicy Potatoes4 cups of small baby […]
