I’m feeling too lazy to do a recap of 2007. Besides, I didn’t even start the blog till February. But I did want to wish all my loyal readers (all 4 or 5 of you beautiful people *sniff*) all the best in the New Year. I hope your 2008 is full of […]

For those of you who saw the UFC fights last night, you know why I have a huge grin on my face.  My future second husband Georges St-Pierre won his fight with Matt Hughes.  In fact, “won” is an understatement.  GSP was in top form, dominating the fight, showing excellent skills standing up and in […]

Me: I’m gonna start taking better care of my skin - wearing my gloves when it’s cold, moisturizing more.
D: So next time you’re out in the sun I guess I should force you inside.
Me: No, a little sun every day is good. It’s the best source of Vitamin D.
D: (pointing to himself, smiling, and […]

Christmas is usually not full of many surprises for either me or D. This is completely understandable; after all, we are adults who have most of our needs met. Aside from oxygen, food, and video games, D does not seem to need much more to live. To boot, I’m a minimalist so […]

D and I finally got to another thing on our list and we went to the Bodies Exhibition on Friday.  It was amazing.  The exhibit is mainly divided by systems (circulatory, skeletal, etc) as it winds its way from room to room.  Display cases feature everything you could ever want to see (or not see) […]

Since 99% of the spam that I get has to do with counterfeit Rolexes (I have no idea why), the remaining 1% tends to catch my eye. Especially when it is from one Dr. Fredric Cantrell telling me “You have chance to become a real man”. How did Dr. Cantrell know that it […]

As I’m sure I mentioned before, there are a few jerkwads students who can’t quite behave themselves.  I do my best to be a grown-up and refrain from yelling “Dude, shut it!” at the offender, but I am so tempted.  There is one boy who was really pushing it, just being obnoxious, talking too loud, […]

“I really want some KFC.”  Those were D’s exact words.  We haven’t eaten KFC in a good five years; we haven’t even eaten at McDonald’s in months though there is one a block away from our house. But you know how it is when you get a craving.
We’d been out for some early evening drinks […]

I’m so excited because my future second husband Georges St. Pierre will be fighting Matt Hughes in the UFC on the 29th. Originally, Hughes was going to fight Matt Serra (the current welterweight champion) but Serra had to pull out due to an injury, so now my man is in.
This will be the third […]

I rarely check up on the kids at the library when they are on the computers since most are doing schoolwork. But when I hear giggling or too much conversing, especially from repeat offenders, I do get sneaky and take a look at what they are doing from my own computer. Usually it’s […]
