Stay the Heck Out!
Come along, wont you, on a wonderful journey called a “tangent”. The best part of this one is that I don’t know if it can even be considered a tangent, due to the fact that I’m leading with it. Although, if you think about it, I’m now on a tangent WHILE talking about tangents. Okay, … Read more
On becoming “Quite Old”
As the candles on this cake might suggest, someone recently had their 29th birthday. I’m not going to say who it was, but suffice it to say he’s quite a handsome, charming, delightful, and all-round wonderful sort of fella. Alright, so perhaps I’m exaggerating slightly(or greatly) on some or all of those points. The point … Read more
How to Name a Frog
This past weekend we, along with a set of grandparents, spent a few days on Prince Edward Island. You might think that since the ferry is only a short drive from our house we would have been there sometime in the past three years that we’ve lived here, but no, we had not. As a … Read more
What’s With the Peanuts?
So this fella walks into a pub(you’ll notice I didn’t say “bar”. This was to ensure that nobody followed interrupted me by saying “ouch”. Of course, now I’ve gone on this whole bit, it has proven to be completely unnecessary, as I’ve spent much more time explaining how I didn’t want to be interrupted, while … Read more
It’s Pronounced “Lentils”
Poor Tevye woke up feeling horribly sick yesterday morning, and spent the majority of the day either resting on the couch, or sleeping in his bed. He didn’t even get up until 11am, and then by 2pm he was back in his bed, sawing logs. He didn’t eat much of anything all day, claiming that … Read more
So Happy Together
I had made the subtle suggestion that I would appreciate it if the kids would be so kind as to play nicely and quietly while I’m getting some work done this morning. The rules are, as always, no running in the house, no jumping on the couch, no leaping through the air and using the … Read more
Not Really My Thing
Last week, when we went to the beach and I neglected to tote along my bazooka, and I mentioned that we had some awkward encounters. Really? You don’t remember this? Well perhaps you should speak to your doctor about memory-loss. Seriously, it was less than a week ago that I brought this up, and how … Read more
I Thought This was Behind Us
As I recall, about a week and a half ago, I mentioned that it was almost Spring, and if it was still looking like winter the following Friday, I would be registering a formal complaint. Well last Friday, while it was no longer T shirt weather, it wasn’t bad. Last night, around 9pm, that self-absorbed … Read more
My Brand New Cervelo R3

Perhaps I Need to Get Out More
As we were eating lunch, my gaze wandered to the shelf in the kitchen, and I noticed that this particular jar was somewhat similar in nature to Tevye. Most people would probably just chuckle warmly to themselves. I, however, made a label, so that I might have many warm chuckles in the future.
