This will be a quick post today as it’s been a really busy few days since we FINALLY got the keys to our condo!!!! There’s still some work that needs to be done on it, stuff we noticed during our inspection (like the heat not working, part of the lock isn’t fully installed, etc) Otherwise [...]
[continue]83/365: kobo-fied
Anyone who knows me, knows how vehemently I was fighting the eReader craze. Call me old-fashioned, but I love the feel of holding and reading an actual physical book. The aching wrist while reading a hefty hardcover book is just a battle wound… small price to pay for a good read. My only experience was [...]
[continue]82/365: Weekly Photo Challenge – Spring
This week’s Daily Post photo challenge theme is: Spring And what better day to find a picture of spring than when we get hit with another snowstorm overnight… hopefully one last whammy and then that’s it. That being said, this picture I actually took a few years ago, but since right now it’s not very [...]
[continue]81/365: Top 10 Tuesday
Brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish, this week’s Top 10 Tuesday topic is: Top Ten Bookish Pet Peeves (all those things that annoy you in a story, with book covers, bookstores, etc.) Errors!!! <– I’m surprised how often I actually find typos or grammatical errors in books that I’ve read.

[continue]The idea of Room
Prior to reading this book by Emma Donoghue, I had already heard countless reviews about it ranging from “amazing” to “disturbing”. The book jacket’s summary was already intriguing in itself. Narrated by Jack, a five-year-old boy, who has lived in a small room all his life with his Ma, the small enclosed space is his [...]
[continue]79/365: Photoshoot
I’ve had quite a long and interesting Sunday already. My friend at work is taking a fashion class at the university during nights and one of her major projects is to style a photoshoot. I hooked her up with my friend who is a freelance photographer, and I went along to be of assistance. (Let [...]

I had the idea for today’s topic when I was watching Glee last week and the celibacy club started singing “Afternoon Delight”. All I kept hearing was when Ron Burgundy & the gang sang it in the movie Anchorman! LoL! Speaking of Glee, when I hear “Don’t Stop Believin’”, it will always remind me of [...]

TGIF! 5-Question Friday is brought to you by My Little Life Questions for Friday, March 18th: 1. Have you ever testified in court? For what? I haven’t but I had a close court encounter… when I lived downtown during university, there was one morning my mom called me and said that some cops showed up [...]
[continue]76/365: Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Just popping in to do a quick blog post today! Didn’t realize it was already 9:30pm… usually go out with my good buddies for St. Patty’s Day for drinks, but with everyone’s work schedule and all living further apart (and us realizing we’re not as young as we used to be.. lol) that we didn’t [...]
[continue]75/365: Head of the Network
Stumped for a topic for today’s blog post, I came across a tweet from Brian Baumgartner (who plays Kevin on The Office) which gave me the idea for today’s topic. The 4 major networks being NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX… I actually don’t even know for sure which network it’s on, but I would pick [...]
