My third and best college roommate, my bud through thick and thin, and a whole host of other roles…including designated prancer, keeper of the starcrunches and Heavy Metal expert. Sadly, he has the second-worst birthday date in the Western world, … Continue reading →

She is also known as my little sister (ma petite soeur) which makes her eyes roll. I think it’s because Sonia already is the (biological) little sister to three older sisters. However, from me, it’s a huge compliment since I … Continue reading →

The quarterly trip to the dentist was better than expected. I always plan for the worst when it comes to my never-ending war on periodontal matters. The upper teeth were solid. It’s the lower chewing ones in the back which … Continue reading →

I didn’t forget this at all. What I failed to do was write this up before the hockey game, put it on the timer and carry on. This morning we did our weekly breakfast at Kerbey Lane Cafe. Then followed … Continue reading →
