Watch my life unravel...

The Baseline Cowboys raised $300 in empties and spare change for Christie Lake Kids on Wednesday! Rumour has it they’ve also volunteered to help out with Christie Lake’s cooking program. It seems everybody who meets the Baseline Cowboys has something to say about how likable they are. Here’s a photo of them sitting in the […] Okay, now here’s some MAJOR news for you. Drum roll, please. BANJO CAN FLY! He turned one month old today, and he celebrated by flying off my finger while I was washing his face after breakfast. I was so surprised. I just assumed Piccolo would fly first, since he’s the oldest. And I thought it was […] On Friday night, GC and I went to Elmak’s art show at La Petite Mort Gallery. I meant to tell you about it before the show, so you could go too, but unfortunately I dropped that ball. Elmaks is the street artist who created the Swap Boxes. The show was great, and GC bought a […] One day last year, Carl – who drives the #14 bus – asked me what I’d done the night before. I told him I’d made artist trading cards for swap boxes. He’d never heard of swap boxes, so I explained. Carl said it sounded like geocaching, a hobby he and his son share. I’d never […] This is traditionally my favourite weekend of the whole year. The Great Glebe Garage Sale and National Capital Race Weekend both happen this weekend! What more could a person ask of a single weekend?

I love that house. It’s got its own movie now! Go […] You know what? It’s hard to write the next post after the Bank Street Bully posts. Until this week, the most attention this blog ever got was when the Yarn Harlot mentioned it last January and two thousand knitters came to visit on a single day. The most comments a single post had ever generated […] Okay, here’s one of those Small World stories for you. You guys are all familiar with Elmaks, right? He’s the original Swap Box artist. He sometimes leaves a clue on this blog when he’s going to put up a new swap box or other street art (like If Larry O’Brien Ran Bethlehem and the Last Supper […] Today was a lump-in-my-throat emotional kind of day. It got off to a lumpy start, and then the lump just stayed pretty close to the surface for the rest of the day. On my walk to work, I came across a dead duck on Prince of Wales Drive. Roadkill. It was very sad. And pointless […] I met this dog on Elgin Street the other day. He rides in a stroller because he only has three legs. So when his companion made him sit up and wave to me, he was balancing on only one leg. Then, shortly after running into the three-legged dog (which reminds me of a joke I’d […] |
