The first boy I danced with was also my first 'boyfriend'.
I was in grade seven and I really liked Matthew who was a boy in my class with blond hair. He was also shorter than me, as were almost all the boys at that point. It was the last time in my life I felt tall!

Thieving Panda (An Illustrated Story)
When I was 21 I was dating ZenBoy, a club promoter and general slacker. He only worked doing "promotions" for one nightclub.
What this meant was that we would spend pretty much every Friday and Saturday night at this one club.
Now, I love Halloween, but by the time October 31st rolled around I was over it. I didn't really...

I think it was less to do with the club than the amount of alcohol consumed by the people in it. And maybe it was only one person... possibly two...

When I write this blog I usually try to make it interesting to someone who knows nothing about me. This one will not be like that. I have some thoughts I need to sort through and I'm going to be kind of vague. My apologies - please tune in tomorrow for a more coherent blog.

Well gentlemen aren't supposed to talk with people like you! I think they pay them afterwards but no talking.

Opps to early...aww they are being snarky. So cute. Ok I think I have this Tardis down now. Off I go.
My Home
Pink. That's what my house is. Pink.
Not by my choice mind you. The people who lived here before me though really seemed to like it. And not a nice pink. Dusty rose retirement home pink.
The upstairs bathroom? Pink.
The second bedroom? Pink.
The third bedroom? Pink.
The backsplash in the kitchen? Pink and green flowered wallpaper.
The bedroom? Pink on top...

When I was little my Ken doll's head would always pop off. So we would just play with him headless. He was a minor character anyway. Never had Skipper... did have a pink corvette for my Barbies. I wouldn't mind a real pink corvette.

You're kinda creepy at times.
Five things about my day:
1. Last day before I go back to work and the whole Christmas/New Years vacation is over
2. I covet the cookbook set of Ad Hoc at Home and French Laundry at Home - but cannot justify $120 before tax
3. My sister makes me laugh like no one else in the world
4. It's cold out and I just...

Something Different
In keeping this blog I've been trying to tell stories. I wanted it to be an opportunity to practice my writing and have fun. Today I'm just going to write about whatever I'm thinking - so it will be a little different.
I can tell it's cold outside. The sky is a bright grey and the trees are moving in the wind. A...

A Romantic Moment
I've already written about DumaBoy - the first time I had fallen in love (I was 19, he was 29).
When we were dating he bought me this necklace, it was nothing really, a Celtic symbol on a leather string. I remember him giving it to me and getting it to fit just right. I loved it.
After DumaBoy broke my heart,...

Isn't Celtic jewelry just a bunch of swiggly lines. If he liked you he would have got you something from the winning side, Roman!
And it just sounds oh so new age. Celtic.

Nothing else happened that night - we chatted pleasantly. About a year later we hooked up for one night and then two years later we dated for a few months again... we just weren't meant to be.
Stabbings and Gang Fights
I didn't think that my highschool was a bad school.
I went to an urban school but on the outskirts of the city - really more suburban.
It only sunk in that it might have had more problems than most when I went to university and realized that other schools *didn't* have their own police officer!
