I tend to find the more humour in the negative so I have probably focused on that (on the blog only – NO I’m not sitting around in “real life” saying “OMG THE BIRDS WERE SO LOUD THIS MORNING HOW DARE THEY”) these past two weeks but this has been a very nice vacation and [...]
Erika sent this via email but I am putting it on my blog.
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?
Yes; my grandmothers.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?
I cried on the ferry on the way here when that old man was being so unruly and wouldn’t let me sleep… I cried a bit at [...]
1) After-bite (and then a liberal dousing with insect repellent essential oils even if Rob then thinks I’m stinky)
2) Taking a shower and it doesn’t matter if it’s cold because it was a really hot day anyway
3) Discovering that yes, there are clean pants, clean pants for me!
4) NOT finding any French beavers working in [...]
Mosquitoes won’t stop biting my blood!
And now I have to go take a cold shower!
And I don’t think I have any clean pants!
THIS MAKES ME CRANKY.
Does anyone know where you go/how long it takes to get a passport? I know I could look this up, but I’m lazy.
I ask because DJ just reminded me that come January, you’d need a passport to travel between Canada and the US. I don’t have any trips planned at the moment, but I figure [...]
I have always loved this song by James Taylor.

Flickr has finally uploaded the photos. Because we have a slow connection I was pretty much uploading photos (there were 40ish of them) from 11 am til just now (11:32 pm).
Next time we go to St. John’s I will actually go down to the water’s edge and maybe then will get some more close-up photos [...]
1) Bought a can of this stuff, and the tent doesn’t leak anymore. Hooray for cheap tent!
2) I really, really, really enjoyed the Dark Knight. I would definitely recommend it. My secret? Not building it up in my mind beforehand, not being all “Heath Ledger is a God because he died” or whatever… I haven’t [...]
Today is the best day!
1) It’s finally sunny!
2) We are going to St. John’s today to watch The Dark Knight!

2b) Rob’s mom is not feeling well at all right now so the trip might be in jeopardy.
2c) Rob has just started getting a sty (sp?) on his eye so maybe he won’t be able to [...]
Okay I know that I should just learn to control myself but.
Just having a conversation with a family member. S/he was complaining about a recent weight gain (due to meds s/he’s taking) and how it makes him/her have such a low self esteem and how nobody understands. Meanwhile I’m thinking “Yeah, you’re the one who [...]
