Anyone who has ever read my blog knows that I have a deep-seated, long-lived, would stab a kitten if someone told me they didn’t like the show, sort of love for a little television program called….
THE WEST WING.
Friends have even called my addiction to the show unhealthy.
Besides being the greatest show on television in terms of *casting, The West Wing has the ability to make you laugh, cry, swoon, swear and most importantly (and most cheesy)- it will make you hope.
I told you it was cheesy.
But it will make you hope. And you will …READ MORE

April 10th, 2011 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and then i laughed out loud, Blogroll, confession of the day, i wrote this just for the picture, I'm scared to see the search engine results to this, lists, oh look! i have opinions., quote of the day, who needs a self help book? (via)
1. I love the above image and the message it gives. Because seriously, who hasn’t been there? The second the choice is given to someone else, or you know a coin- you gain the clarity you need to realize what you wanted all along. High-five, Universe. And yes, that’s as deep as I’m going to get on Sunday morning.
2. Stomach bug + vacation time = FINALLY WATCHING “ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT”. I KNOW. I KNOW. It’s like, someone just introduced me to what humor is. I just finished the first season and am alternating between thinking I …READ MORE
February 7th, 2010 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, because I can't do report cards 24/7, competition makes me crazy, H.A.D gets his own tag- that's love, happiness, hello universe? I love you, i can't believe i have a football tag, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, introspection sometimes causes me to drink, it makes sense to me, lists, love harder, overwhelmed doesn't even begin..., so sappy it hurts One of the best reasons to have a blog (other than the free swag- I’m STILL WAITING FOR GAP TO START THROWING PARTIES FOR CANADIAN BLOGGERS- I’M JUST SAYING), is that it’s easy to see what you were doing one week ago, or one month ago or one year ago. You can simply just click in the archives and you will find your past feelings and thoughts and anecdotes perfectly preserved. You can hit a particular month and find out what was breaking your heart, how drunk you got on cheap wine at your friends party, what social causes were …READ MORE
December 31st, 2009 in a possible regret, AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and then i laughed out loud, conversation of the day, earning my dork badge, find the dorkiest sentence in this, games we play, i can't believe i said that, i laugh when i say "balls", I sound drunk but I assure you I am not, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, it makes sense to me, it seemed like a good idea at the time..., it's a long one (twss), love or something like it, man I'm such a girl, men, p.s. i love me, people i like, relationships, the last line is my favourite, the title says it all, this makes me sound dumber than i am, when i say it anyway Hello internet! So, it’s the last day of 2009, and I thought I’d lighten the mood.
A few weeks ago, the ‘hot awesome dude’ (aka: H.A.D) decided he wanted to share with the internet things I taught him in 2009. I was overjoyed with this idea. Of cooourse I wanted a list that showcased how life changing and awesome I am. Instead, he decided that he should cull allll the ridiculous things I said in 2009 and make them into a little list for him to re-read and giggle over like a school girl asked to prom. (He’s going to …READ MORE
November 22nd, 2009 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, confession of the day, hello universe? I love you, i should be a P.S.A., I sound drunk but I assure you I am not, it makes sense to me, jumping off bridges, learning, sometimes you just have to leap, the less i worry the happier i am, the world according to me Despite what movies and books tell you, there usually isn’t an ‘ah ha!’ moment. You won’t find yourself ironing your shirt and then suddenly decide to give up on routine, give in to what you want, let go of what you don’t need. No, no, it doesn’t work that way. It creeps on you, it seeps into your veins, nests deep inside your brain, takes up residence in your heart- and without warning or intention, you find yourself ready to leap for great big things and break out of the routine that you’ve called your LIFE.
Suddenly you think less …READ MORE
November 8th, 2009 in advice, AHHHHHHHHHHH!, confession of the day, hello universe? I love you, i should be a cheerleader, i think my sweetness gave you a cavity, it makes sense to me, men, no i haven't gotten laid, something I won't forget, sometimes you just have to leap, the one that nobody reads because of the title, when i ask you to do things for me You know, for all my waxing about love and like and movies starring both Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks- I’m not easily wooed. I tend to be the girl who is not impressed when a dude comes over to talk because he’s usually cutting in to the great time I’m already having with my friends. (Real life friends who read the blog? Feel free to chime in and confirm this bitchy behavior I exhibit).
And when a guy manages to get into a conversation? I’m easy to cut him loose if I feel like he’s not quality. (For the record, …READ MORE
August 20th, 2009 in 1/2 funny 1/2 serious 100% important, AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and now you might know everything, confession of the day, earning my dork badge, hello universe? I love you, i am slowly going crazy, i know- we all LOVE him, Josh Lyman needs his own tag, just do what i say, let's still be friends?, lists, MY BIRTHDAY, overwhelmed doesn't even begin..., teaching, the J.O.B., the world according to me, what i found when i went looking, when i ask you to do things for me, when i say it anyway, work, you're skimming this one Do you ever go to write something and then go read your archives and find a post you already wrote that is pretty much identical to what you were going to write?
And you are both elated (hello link love, let’s just save mamma some typing!) and deflated (I was way funnier two years ago)?
And then you realize you just called yourself ‘mamma’ and you wonder what it says about you when you admit to yourself that you like it?
Me too.
Saturday is the *birthday. TWENTY EIGHT. I’m sure I’m supposed to be feeling all sorts of things …READ MORE
August 11th, 2009 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and now you might know everything, confession of the day, hello universe? I love you, i love fragment sentences, it happened this week, let's not talk about how long this took, school, seriously, teaching, the title says it all, who's the boss now?, work I have a job.
An honest to goodness teaching job.
This year.
In a school.
Where I will go to the same classroom everyday and teach grade four students about reading and writing and how to not write run on sentences like this one.
I have a job.
(Also? If you want to make a difference and gain huge karma points- go here and see how you can help!)
Thank you so much for your kind words and emails everyone!
July 16th, 2009 in 1/2 funny 1/2 serious 100% important, a possible regret, AHHHHHHHHHHH!, confession of the day, fingers crossed this works, here is my heart, i can't believe i said that, i may write about the west wing forever, it seemed like a good idea at the time..., Josh Lyman needs his own tag, man I'm such a girl, men, no i haven't gotten laid, so sappy it hurts, the title says it all, things I don't say outloud, vague is vogue, when i say it anyway Sometimes I wonder what the point of an ‘undo send’ option in gmail is if it only lasts like, 2.4 seconds. I mean, people don’t tend to regret emails they send that quickly. They usually wait longer- minutes go by before they realize that they sent something that although is 100% true, is also 100% cringe worthy and they would gladly gnaw off their limbs to be able to crawl through the internet and get back their email from the clutches of the receivers inbox. Not so they could never send an email- but just so they could re-word it …READ MORE
