Maybe Namibia??

What a weekend! New York was wonderful, as usual. And it was so, so great to see Meg. Her boyfriend recently left to go back to Germany after failing to get a visa to stay in the States, so she’s been pretty down, pretty bummed and feeling very alone. Having me [...]

Long Weekend Break

I’m pretty excited that I get to take a break from cardboard boxes and tape guns to spend this fine Victoria Day weekend in New York with Meg. We haven’t seen each other since October, and we haven’t really spent a reasonable amount of one on one time together since…..I guess since we were [...]

Randomness

The main item on my to-do list for today? Pack up the apartment. Ask me how much packing I’ve done. Ask me. Okay, I’ll tell you: none, zero, nada. Packing is my most hated activity in the world. Especially because right now I have to divide things into “Boxes [...]

Must remember….

when I’ve made appointments for movers to come see the apartment so that I’m not sitting around in a pink silk nightgown with a bright blue clay masque on my face when they come.
Because that situation results in me: sitting dumbfounded when the door bell rings, realising why the doorbell is ringing, [...]

Not About to Lose

If I were to listen to my doubts
I’d think my time was running out
But I’m old enough to do it
And young enough to do it again
I’m not about to lose
I’m not about to lose
This feeling that I’ve found
If I were to listen to the sound
Of that little voice, I might turn back now
But I won’t [...]

Accentuate the positive..

The past few days have been a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. Second interview went well. Third interview went well. I got the job. That was a positive. Until I started thinking about leaving the Guy behind in London. Negative. Get to move to Toronto. Positive. [...]

Life without the pill

Second interview went well yesterday. I have a third interview booked for tomorrow. This all seems like a faily exhaustive process to find a six-month intern, but….if it gets me a job it will be worth it, I guess. I’m very conflicted about moving to Toronto. It breaks my heart a [...]

Setting priorities

No, I haven’t gone missing. I’ve just been busy. And stressed. As I write this I can feel my heart beating faster than usual…maybe it’s the fact that I drank a (small) coffee this morning, or maybe it has something to do with the (second) interview I have this afternoon at 2:30.
I [...]

Mother’s Day Present

I’m so excited about my mum’s Mother’s Day gift. SO excited. It’s a little ridiculous. I keep telling people about it, and after awhile their eyes all glaze over. I don’t blame them. Anyhow, I decided I wanted to do something a little more special and much more personal this [...]
