Bestest Night Ever!!!!

Thank you to my husband and best friend who conspired ruthlessly to let me hear these lyrics LIVE last night:



Picture you're the queen of everything
As far as the eye can see
Under your command
I will be your guardian
When all is crumbling
Steady your hand


When I got to see these guys LIVE at the Molson Amphitheatre!!!








And of course, a huge bonus was that the opening act was these guys!







So to the both of you sneaky people,

THANK YOU!

I'm blocked....

I really should just refer to this blog as my writer's block blog. Seems I come here whenever I'm stricken with that.

Of course because I'm having trouble what I need to be writing I'm distracting myself with random useless business. Like placing an order for a cake we need for a meeting3 weeks from now. And listening to Colbie Callait for the first time ever. Some of her songs sound like Christmas carols, but jumpier. And I'm planning a vacation I will probably never take to here. I've already researched how much airline tickets would cost and what I'd like to see when I got there. I was also planning my non-existent stop over in Munich.

I will do my best...

To my 3.75 blog readers out there, I have returned. I apologise for the extended absence. I haven't had much motivation to write anything on here for quite some time. And still I don't, but I find mysef in the predicament of a government employee in summer - with writer's block.

My job involves mostly (by "mostly" I mean only) reading and writing. Writing and reading. And then more of it. Unlike other bloggers who crave the opportunity to write some of their thoughts and musings down, at the end of the day, I crave nothing more than shutting my brain off. My thoughts are consumed with options and policy and projections on articles and letters and briefings that have crossed my desk. My musings nobody really cares about, cause well, it's government.

So I return to this blog to help me get over my writer's block. I will just write and write and write and not try to get sucked into the trap of sitting in front of my computer at my desk daydreaming about the ice cream truck around the corner. See. I just failed. Already. Oh well.

And so, I will do my best to keep you 3.75 entertained or at least, reading, the incoherent jibberish that I type. Until I can find you something better to replace myself with.

Super awkward randomness

Just some random thoughts, awkward things, on the super level:

- Why do all manufacturers of industrial bathroom products have two names? (ie: Kimberly Clarke, Matthes Williamson, etc)

- Have you ever played chicken with people on the sidewalk? Like staring them down until they move out of the way or until they force you to do it? I usually win, cause I'm a girl and I'm wearing heels, but I swear, there's some smaller Asian women who really give me a run for my money!

- The word "practicable". Really? I mean, really?

- I have never had milk come out of my nose but I so badly wanted it to when I was younger. Now I ever wonder why I wanted it to. Though part of my wishes I had achieved it - just so I'd know.

- I hate buying toilet paper and then making eye contact with people. It's like the minute they see you're carrying toilet paper their thoughts go to your bathroom use. And let's be honest with ourselves, as natural as the process is, random people thinking about your bathroom use is unattractive.

- For me there are really only two seasons: Wearing Socks and Not Wearing Socks. Currently, this season is Wearing Socks. But I am constantly scared that for some reason, I will have to remove my shoes and people will see my socks. This fear has resulted in me matching my socks to my outfit. Socks that no one really ever sees. I actually spend energy on this.

- I think I would be a good poker player. In general, I'm very spastic. I think it could hide my tells very well.
