So nothing definitive came from Jack’s interview. It went well, and he feels good about his chances. The company has decided not to hire anyone until the end of July, and so we wait.
Waiting isn’t the worst thing in the world, although I loathe any state of limbo generally speaking. I like to know where [...]
This week could bring another of those life-altering changes that seem to occur with unusual regularity around here. The tides of change seem to wash away all of the plans we’ve foolishly bothered to draw in the sand.
Jack has a second interview for a new job. A job that would have us move back from [...]
We enjoyed our complementary breakfast on Thursday morning before checking out of the Holiday Inn and heading for Chicago. A generous blogger pal of mine had offered to tour us around for the day, and we were looking forward to a break from driving and having a chance to see the sights.
On our way to Chicago [...]
A summary of our Saturday, spent preparing for our week-long road trip can be found here and here. I won’t bother going over everything that happened that day, but needless to say, our trip was off to an interesting start, LOL.
Sunday marked Day One of Shasta & V Do America. We said our goodbyes and [...]
GOOD MORNING!!! I am writing this at a picnic table near Sheridan, Wyoming at about 7:30 in the morning. V and I pulled into a KOA (Kampground of America) last night at the end of Shasta & V Do America – Day Two. The trip has been really awesome so far, although our [...]
I’ve never been a big believer in fate or destiny. I prefer the idea that I control my own life, direction, and future. However, I have to admit that I feel something larger than our own choice brought us out to Ontario. I just got a strange sense that this is where we were meant [...]
Moving is a highly unpleasant experience. One that I don’t wish to repeat in the near future. Moving over 7 metric tons of our life from one end of the country to the other was an extreme exercise in patience and pushed us right to the brink of sanity. I think Jack and I came [...]
I’ve decided not to change my timestamp for this website, since doing so could potentially effect all past entries, changing the dates of any which were written close to midnight ‘Calgary Time’. It’s not all that important at any rate, since I can manually change the times of each post so that it reflects the [...]
Here are a few photos from a recent trip out to Elbow River Falls. Jack took V and I there one evening after dinner. It was a lovely night as the three of us walked along the edge of the river (me snapping pictures, as always).
Click on any of the images below to see the [...]
Before I launch into my blog post, I would like to direct your attention to this post, by my close friend and long-distance tease Padme. It reveals the naughty details of our recent web cam play time! Hot stuff, you’ll wanna read it

I haven’t been feeling myself lately.
This is evident in [...]
Click on any of the pictures to see larger versions. There is also a set available on my Flickr account containing additional photos.
I had the absolute best time of my life on vacation in Ontario. Jack and I decided that before the move it would be nice to get away from it all, let the [...]
Some weeks ago I had a moment with myself concerning our relocation to Toronto.
By having a moment I mean I got angry. Really angry and upset and bitter.
The idea of the move made me recoil with sadness and irritation. I thought about how unfair it all is, how cruel and inconsiderate life is being. I [...]
We bought a house today!
It’s a massive house, on a huge lot (big enough to put in a tennis court or a pool! I’m hoping for the latter). It’s around 4,000 square feet; with six bedrooms and four bathrooms. It has a fully finished basement, and a deck, and a landscaped yard. There is a [...]
I have been searching for something to write about here recently. The regularity of posting has dipped, and I don’t think I’ve written anything of substance in a little while. Bleh. Blog Block I suppose. There have been no sexy stories to recount, no complicated feelings to deal with, no drama to speak of. Life [...]
Finally I have a few moments to sit down and share a little update on our moving preparations. Recently Jack and I took a trip out east to shop for houses and get a feel for the area. Neither of us had been there before, so it was an exciting adventure. We had a great [...]
I miss my blog!
*Cries*
I looked at my sidebar and I have only made 9 posts this month, and April is nearly over.
It isn’t for lack of topics to write about. I have reviews piling up, and I want to tell you of the trip Jack and I made to Toronto. I even have photos!
Tomorrow I [...]
I miss this blog, although the less-that-enthusiastic reaction to my last HNT isn’t all that inspiring. I am not one to beg for comments, but I have to admit that I do care about them, and it makes me sad that so few people bother.
Anyway, I have been extremely busy with house/moving related stuff. It’s [...]
Still recovering from the party, which was totally INCREDIBLE!
We ended up with over 20 people in the house, and only a few people had to cancel because of work or kids.
I was so pleased that everyone went all-out to dress up for the event. I wore a grey suede skirt that I made, which laced [...]
It’s official! Jack and I are throwing a sexy masquerade party as a farewell bash before we move. It’s going to be the evening of March 24th, here at our house.
I have already sent out e-vites to everyone I had an address for (I am so sorry if I missed someone, it was hard to [...]
Last night LD had me over to his apartment for tea and cookies.
He was over-tired and clearly more out of it than usual. Which is saying a lot, since normally he is neurotic anyway.
I listened with great amusement to his many tales of recent misadventures. He lives a very exciting life, although a lot of [...]
