September 12th, 2008 in advice, and then i laughed out loud, books, i like scotch & table dancing, i love fragment sentences, i may write about the west wing forever, i should be a cheerleader, i wish i was a Kennedy, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, it was a dance dance revolution, just do what i say, lists, movies, music, oh look! i have opinions., politics, the title says it all, the world according to me, travel Everyone has them. The movie you must see, the song you must hear, the book you must read, the city you must visit. When I talk about my ‘musts’ I’m almost fanatical, my feelings are so strong on each of them. My list of ‘musts’ don’t necessarily mean they are my favorite. They are just what has stood out, became memorable and left me with something that I think others might find valuable. So, I give you a few of my ‘musts’, and hope that you will tell me a few of yours

I love you, i know- we all LOVE him, i may write about the west wing forever, i wish i was a Kennedy, it's ironic because I'm Canadian, it's okay- you can skim this one, lists, people i like, politics, pretty hair makes me happier, the one that nobody reads because of the title, you're skimming this one Between the Olympics and the Democratic National Convention my nerves are shot. I went from cheering for Jamaican runners to standing on my couch clapping for Ted Kennedy. My eyes are red, my heart is racing and I’m starting to think that it might not be my liver hurting me, but an ulcer.
Here are some recent thoughts…

February 10th, 2008 in confession of the day, friends, i love fragment sentences, i should be a P.S.A., i wish i was a Kennedy, I'm a lady. I'm a tramp., martinis make the world make sense, politics, tequila consequences, vague is vogue, what the hell This weekend I might have bought a book on US politics.
And I might have also re-discovered a love for red wine.
And I might have consumed wine and then called people.
And I might have thought it would be THE GREATEST idea to read them my favourite line from The Gettysburg Address.
And I might have actually shed a tear or two while reading it.
And I might have followed all of that up by telling each of them that I LOVE THEM and then letting them know that they are AMAZING and then asking if they wanted me …READ MORE
January 29th, 2008 in anger and I have sat down for tea, i wish i was a Kennedy, it's okay- you can skim this one, oh look! i have opinions., politics, seriously, soapbox, the george, today i am not funny, what the hell On a scale of 1-10, I’m annoyed by this a 46, 813.
