some fun things from the internet last week


One of the people who have taught me clown, Mark, does improv and hosts his own morning radio show!  if you are up early enough (generally 6:30 am - 10 am) take a listen! 


Another friend is making a movie!


and, well, a beautiful moment in music.  Stick with it.  You don't want to miss the grand finale xylophone face.

things i liked last week

I liked these things I saw last week.  maybe you saw them too, maybe you showed them to me!  but maybe, these things will make your week a little better too!

Best PSA evar.  (this was stuck in my head until I finally fell asleep last night!)

Best socks evar!  one day I will learn how to make a pattern and knit fun things from my head.

I love me some good photography.  it makes me feel warm and fuzzy.  These are some incredible portraits.

when FUNNY shit happens

So, this post by The Bloggess is *prime* example of shit happening...except...it's funny.  Life happens people.  Jenny accepted her situation...and well, I'll let you read this...I hope you laughed like I did.  I needed it...so do you.

oh, my Life...

I haven't been talking much about my daily living much these days.


One amazing thing that happened was the the Postal strike ended and J got his results from his nursing registration exam.  He passed!  He'll be looking for a job as soon as he pays for the registration.  I'm married to an RPN! 
I LOVE the juxtaposition of our careers.  Here I go off to work in big steel toed boots, and use shovels, lift stone, get mega dirty, cut lawns and generally sweat a lot.  And J, wears scrubs and 'nursing shoes' and is a nurse.*  Its a bit of a role reversal.  It's great, and I can't wait for our kids to tell everyone what we do and for some adult to say, "oh sweetie, don't you mean you Mummy is a nurse and your Daddy is a Landscaper?"  tee hee.

I've been to a wedding last week.  and next weekend is a vow renewal.  And in 2 weeks is a weekend event called Moose Man.   It's put on by members of the Burning Man community in Toronto.  I don't consider myself a 'burner' so much.  I have no desire to *go* to Burning Man.  But the antics we get up to on the weekend is sublimely fun.  I'm the 'lead' for the performances.  So I get to organize the Moose Man Cabaret, and the Pre Burn show.  here are the photos from last year!  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150245290090298.479165.691120297

Today I'm going to Peterborough with My mom and her husband to celebrate my sister and her Girlfriends engagement.  YAY.  I better get going actually!
