I recently had the chance to spend some time in Atlanta. While having supper alone in the hotel restaurant/bar, I couldn't help but overhear another conversation. Apparently it is possible to discuss the merits of wooden handles on guns & knives for an hour straight. By the end of my meal I was thinking to ask, "Do you have a gun on you? Oh good. Shoot me now, please."

I especially enjoy using this free audio editing software Audacity. Now that I have a phone that has Blue Tooth and lets me use MP3 files for ringtones, I can download any old .wav file, edit the length of the file to match requirements for ringtones and save as MP3 using Audacity. It's fun!! I'm am even thinking about recording people at work during a meeting using the "record audio" function

Note to self: Do not use an auto-shoe shine machine (i.e. inserting your foot below a rolling brush) when your shoes have laces. 'Nuff said.

Unless you were living in a cave, you too had the pleasure of the intense winds that have been buffeting Eastern Canada of late. Being a clutz, I've found many strange ways to injur myself but this one was a first.I left the office last Friday to pick up some lunch. Not 5 meters from the building the wind picked up so much that it began to blow me along the sidewalk. Since the sidewalk was

Yep. It's been a while. I hope the following was worth the wait. This is for you Kathead.Here are some common situations that can arise at work. Good monkeys will say the right thing. Bad monkeys ... well, if you're lucky they will only talk crap and not actually throw it at you. You are asked to help out a team member: Good monkey says: I'm sorry. I'm completely swamped this week. Bad monkey

Although nearly impossible to make my home completely safe - from myself - I have thought of a couple things to do that will make my environs marginally safer. Do not leave the spoon in the blender. This becomes especially dangerous when you forget to put the lid back on. How does this happen? You put the spoon in the blender instead of the banana. Forgetting the lid is really just a

Most people are unaware of this but clutzes have uncanny timing ability. I say uncanny because clutzes, for the most part, are unable to display this skill intentionally. The ability to injure yourself in the most bizarre manner is entirely unconscious and cannot be replicated (or often believed). This ability requires that you time your actions just right - at times down to the millisecond - in

J and I went to an interior design show this weekend at Place Bonaventure. There were quite a few interesting pieces but I was a little disappointed with the size of the show. It took us no more than an hour to get through all the exhibits. The "design" aspect was definitely the emphasis of the show. Meaning you could divide most items into 2 types: ridiculously expensive or of questionable

I notice I become especially - scarily - clutzy when I'm not feeling well. Yesterday is an excellent example. I left work in the early afternoon because of a nasty cold - bad headache, stuffed up, couldn't concentrate, blah blah blah. I got home with every intention of getting to work (oh, the joys of having a laptop and VPN access) only to realize that there is not one but two tents blocking my

Yeah. I finally took the leap and created a blog. For the blog-savvy, I'm sure this first entry will get a lot of groans. Oh. It hurts!, they'll say. To those who are moaning & groaning - even now - I'd like to quote my evil boyfriend by saying, "You'll get yours in the end". Tee hee.Ok. Let's get on with it already.After recounting yet again one of the following (a) crazy, realistic dream (2)
