bloody comment spammers

I’ve gotten over 50 comment spams in the last two hours. Therefore I’ve intentionally broken comment posting for now.

It’s my barf-day

Yay me! I’m 24 today. Yesterday my parents and Sandy and I went out for dinner. Unfortunately last night Sandy woke up with food poisoning 🙁 I wasn’t feeling too hot either, plus I’ve gotten only 4 hours of sleep the last few nights because of Oliver hogging my side of the bed. So today […]

happier things that we did this past weekend

Besides caring for Oliver, we did do some other stuff this weekend: On Friday we went to the last Erin Smith Band show for… a long time! Mike, their drummer, is off to BC for a while, so the band is going on an official hiatus. Nia at C’est What was packed and most of […]

We’re back!

Boy, time flies and I don’t write anything here! We painted another room, the downstairs bathroom. It took many coats of paint for some reason. I am not painting this room again. Our front lawn is all done and sodded! The sod is doing good in most places and a few spots have been filled […]

D-Day

Today we sign the papers for our new house. Tomorrow we take posession and start moving. I am so damn stoked. I know Sandy is too but she’s too tired from packing to show it 🙂

what’s going on? what’s happening? what’s all this?

What else has been happening? We are entering box hell – that time before we move when we try to do as much pre-packing as possible. You can tell it’s getting time to move because photos and pictures start to come off the walls, and then when we talk it sounds like we’re living in […]

For those of you who are keeping track, yesterday Mike’s girlfriend gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Raven Rochelle Kamenka came into this world weighing 9 pounds and 15 ounces. We went to see them yesterday evening at the hospital: everyone was doing A-OK.

Some otherworldly force doesn’t want us to see the movie Hidalgo. Thrice we have planned to see it and thrice we have been denied by ourselves or others. Last night was a prime example, as our delivery from Grocery Gateway was over an hour late. For no real good reason from what I can tell… […]
