Pick-Up Line Offenders*
I sometimes think there is an old woman trapped inside my body. Despite this theory, I went out last night. (no seriously, I actually left my apartment and went… to a pub. *GASP* I know, CRAZY, right??) I actually had a really good time too… but here’s is how I know there is an old woman living inside me: 1) Karog and I didn’t leave until 10pm. I actually had to coach myself into thinking that 10pm was not that late… because in my head that was 2 hours past jammie time. (jammies = pjs) 2) I wanted to go to see some friends and wish BD* a happy birthday,…

Weekend Adventures*
The Hubster and I have had a very full, but nice weekend. On Friday I had a busy day of work and errands. I’ve been fighting to get books for a class I’m taking and so have been checking the library every morning to get the books that have been returned the previous day. I hate taking classes of a specific topic for this very reason. The library at my university is inadequate and doesn’t have nearly enough books to supply the need students have for them. So, we fight. Anyway, I got my books (I’m writing an essay about Nazi science and doctors for my German History course) and…

SNOW DAY*
I give you the Canadian winter.I borrowed this photo from Spart… this is actually from Btown (where she lives) and it looked like they got a wee bit more snow than we did. However, we still got our fair share:So, it was a ‘snow day’. If I have any readers from warmer climates, that means that the sky has vomited enough snow that the roads become impassable and too dangerous to venture on because there is simply too much snow everywhere. It’s almost ironic… the first day that I DON’T have classes on Thursdays, as well as the FIRST day I was supposed to start working at the school, the…

Speed Demon*
In my little city full of old people I often see things that strike me as odd or rather funny. What I witnessed today was definitely a mixture of both. Above you see a motorized cart. They are often seen at malls, theme parks or other large areas. The are most often used by people who are grossly overweight or by people who have difficult walking. The often have fun flags, baskets or other nifty attachments to make them even more fun. However, the little cart I saw today had none of these things. It was driven by a scowling little old man in a classic white golf cap who…

10km Later…*
Well, I did it. After biking to the university last weekend with the hubster (and needing to stop on several occasions to rest or walk up hills) I made a goal to bike to the school without stopping. And today we did it! Because it is such a beautiful day out, after church the hubs and I realized that we simply could not sit inside any longer and decided to go for a nice bike ride. I wanted to try biking to the school again, so he took me on a flatter, albeit longer route, and after 10km and 44 minutes, I made it without dying or stopping once! It…
