Liar Liar Pants

Last week, we kept getting phone calls from “Private Caller”, with no number displayed. They were very persistent. Both Wil and I are … hesitant to answer the phone when we don’t know who it is. I have had too many years of scary bad credit. And both of us too much time spent doing [...]

One of my favorite things about Canada is their attitude towards adult content on tv. Basically, after 10 pm, it’s your responsibility to make sure your kid doesn’t hear the F word or see bare breasts. There is a content warning after each commercial break, warning you about content, but that’s it. I love that. [...]

Measure my booty.

The Greater Vancouver Region has a very strong Blogging/ Social Media community, which is great. I didn’t know of such a community in Seattle. In fact, I never knew any other bloggers in Seattle, sadly. I’m listed on a uberlist of bloggers in Seattle*, that’s as close as I came to knowing other bloggers. So [...]

Leaving Town

Wil and I are leaving town for a few days, and we aren’t going to have internet access. GASP! No, it’s true. We are spending some time on the coast and there is no internet access and no phone. There’s a TV because we aren’t CRAZY. In the meantime, here are my new granny glasses. [...]

Immigration

Last night I sent out a tweet complaint about my immigration lawyer. I’m so frustrated with her right now, I want to scream. In lieu of a scream I sent a tweet. Someday, I am going to tell the story if my immigration, starting from spring of 2007, ending whenever it ends. For some reason, [...]

Happy My Anniversary to You!

Some say, and by some I think it’s probably Hallmark, that the first wedding anniversary is the Paper Anniversary. But in this family, it’s the Electronic Anniversary. We are sitting on the couch after our fancy dinner at Pinky’s Steakhouse, playing with Wil’s anniversary present. (It’s a PSP, in case you can’t tell) We are [...]

iPhone, but do you phone?

Well, there is lots of excitement and anticipation in the air as Apple releases their 3G iPhone on Friday. I don’t even know what 3G is, I just know it’s better. Many Americans and weighing their options, deciding whether or not to upgrade. Here in Canada, it’s a bit different. First, the iPhone is coming [...]
