An Argument Against Binge Watching With the advent of easily acquired content people tend to binge on visual media. Specifically TV shows and sometimes movie franchises. People will sit for 10 or 15 hours straight watching the new season of a show that was… …more
And so it continues… I got a rabbit. It is not the most usual of pets but it was sort of thrust upon me. I have been wanting to get a pet for a while, a dog really (I had been hemming and hawing about that for a good year), and I just hadn’t… …more
Guess what I did this weekend. That’s right. Took in the sights and spent all my moneys. I complained about how the summer wasn’t the best but on a day that looked like this 30 degrees, blue skies, and sunshine, I spent it indoors… …more
Sorry to have left you so long with that last post. I know it wasn’t uplifting or particularly fun but it had to be said. As predicted I did get calls from friends, even visits, insisting that what I said isn’t true but (there is always a but) I should try to wear more fitted… […]

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and everything in between. It’s been a while since the last time I wrote anything. I really didn’t mean for the last post of the year to be about writer’s block and a really bad movie, it just kinda happened that way. Writer’s block will do that to you… …more
Was it art or just wondering around in the dark? A blow by blow account. This weekend in our fine city Toronto was the art festival –Nuit Blanche. The evening started off with an easy ride from the burbs to the downtown core where it suddenly went to hell with road closures and blockades… …more
