I post new content every second week or so — usually nothing too serious; and often downright silly. I figure life is short, so we might as well laugh when we can. 🙂
I welcome your comments on each post!
I’m Older Than I Thought
I’m finally back in the blogosphere again! My summer was… interesting. I intended to post quite a while ago, and then shit happened. Literally: My FIT came back positive. FIT stands for Fecal Immunochemical Test, that highly enjoyable exercise in which you have to collect a (euphemistically-named) “stool sample” and have it analyzed for possible…
TMI, Autocorrect; TMI!
This spring has been a bit… hectic. I haven’t really had that many things on the go; it’s just that I haven’t had the time / energy / physical ability to do All The Things. (Which is intensely annoying and stressful to a compulsive DIY-er like me.) But it is what it is; and I’m…
Baking With Flying Colours
When I look back at my earlier blog posts, a lot of them describe various ways I’ve embarrassed myself in public: Butt sweat in plastic chairs, disintegrating shoes, food dangling from my hair, phantom glasses, shenanigans in the dentist’s chair… and the list goes on. But not recently. In fact, when I looked back at…
Still Alive
I’m ba-a-a-ck! Many thanks to everyone who checked in via comments and email to see if I’m still alive. I am. In fact, I finally feel as though I’m (dare I whisper the words?) *making progress*. It hasn’t been smooth, though. I’ve always figured household appliances and electronics are not only sentient, but also conspiring…
Verbal Diarrhea
The other day I witnessed what was either one of the more inconsiderate behaviours I’ve seen in a while; or possibly a diabolically brilliant business strategy. I’m still not sure which it was, but either way I had to struggle to hold in my inappropriate laughter. (Because if I had let out the full-on-snorting belly-laugh…
Jinxed… And Incredibly Lucky
So, remember how I speculated that Book 18 might be cursed? Well, here’s what happened this morning: I was in the shower, but fortunately Hubby was just down the hall when he heard a loud hissing noise. It took about 20 seconds for him to think “What the…?” and run to living room. By then,…
STILL Not Smarter Than A Cervid
Remember how I heaved a sigh of relief when the deer finally left our yard? And remember how I speculated that Mother Nature must have finally decided I’d been punished enough? Ha. I’ve always suspected Ma Nature has a sadistic streak, so it was with a sense of inevitability that I discovered more damage in…
Smarter Than A Cervid… Not.
Every now and then Mother Nature sticks a pin in my ego just to hear it pop. Apparently this spring she decided I was getting too big for my britches, and her rebuke was swift and humiliating. So the story begins… Here on Vancouver Island, deer are smug. They don’t even bother to stop grazing…
AI’d
There’s been a lot in the news lately about Artificial Intelligence and how AI is disrupting the writing and publishing industry. When AI-written “stories” first appeared a couple of years ago, authors scoffed. AI-generated stories were bad. Really bad. Whew, nothing to worry about. But… We didn’t know that the creators of AI had scraped…
Twit-ish Bitch
After months of unusually mild weather, winter finally decided to kick our soft wimpy West-Coast rumps last week. The rest of Canada plunged into deep-freeze temperatures of -30°C to -50°C (-22°F to -58°F), and here on temperate Vancouver Island, we went down to -10°C (14°F). But I really like to sit outside every morning and drink…
