  • Christmas Shopping

    Ah Toronto... the city where you have spring, summer, fall, and winter all in the span of a week. A couple of days ago I was bitching about the snow and cold, and today it's going to be 12 degrees celcius (56 F for al…
  • Family drama

    In talking with my friends who have seperated or divorced parents, and through my own experience, I've discovered this interesting phenomenon: Two people are born and live seperate childhoods. Eventually they meet…
  • 135 of 525,600 Minutes

    Before I forget, Happy Thanksgiving to all of you in the USA! Last night Peter drove downtown to meet up with me after work so that we could catch RENT on its opening night in Toronto. We caught the 7:05 p.m. show…
  • SNOW!

  • New shoes are a pain

    Countdown continues: 33 days until CHRISTMAS! Wooohooo! I'm at the office today and I'm making every effort NOT to walk around. I'm in the process of breaking in a new pair of shoes that I bought last week. They'r…
  • Weekend Recap

    It was a busy weekend! Friday night I met up with Peter after I finished at the gym. We just relaxed at my place and watched The 40-Year Old Virgin. Saturday was a full day though. Woke up and went to the gym to do …

    Tonight I completed and submitted my application to the full-time MBA program at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto. FINALLY! After months of working on it and agonizing over things like essa…
  • Post training summary

    I can easily sum up this past weekend in one word: INTENSE! The BodyCombat Instructor training that I did was unreal. Right now I'm exhausted, my glycogen stores are depleted, and there are parts of my body that are…

    Today I'm going to begin my BodyCombat Instructor training. The training lasts three days, so it's going to occupy my whole weekend. Training starts at 12 p.m. and goes until 8 p.m. tonight, then tomorrow from 9 a.…
  • Fire And Ice - origins

    Fire And IceBy Robert Frost (1874-1963) Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hat…
  • On track

    It's Wednesday... aka hump day. Things are quiet around the office today. No one called in sick, no one is ranting and raving about their classes, and I have no sales people jumping down my throat trying to find test…
  • I have a moment to breathe now before I start training this afternoon. I was silly to think that just because everything was organized on paper that things would actually turn out the way I had planned. Murphy's Law st…

  • I only have time for a quick post! It's another busy day, but I've got about 20 minutes to goof around before my next appointment. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly retailers switch focus from one holiday to th…
  • I'm *SO* behind in my Xanga it's not funny! I appologize to those of you who have left me comments on previous posts, but who haven't received responses or comments back. I've been so busy with work these past two da…
