January 4th, 2010 in and now you might know everything, Andrea should move back to Canada, because "guilt" is a dirty word, because I can't do report cards 24/7, confession of the day, find the dorkiest sentence in this, H.A.D gets his own tag- that's love, harry potter, I sound drunk but I assure you I am not, i think my sweetness gave you a cavity, it's almost like a meme, italics make it appear more thoughtful/interesting, lists, love or something like it, man I'm such a girl, the J.O.B., the one that nobody reads because of the title, the title says it all, top 10 I considered doing a “let’s reflect on everything that happened in 2009” post, but honestly? My brain works better moving forward, rather than looking back. And although 2009 had some ultra, let’s-just-up-and-down-clapping-our-hands-we-are-so-damn-happy-I-look-drunk-with-joy, moments (hello new job! hello H.A.D! hello bangs that don’t make me look like I’m 9 years old!)- I’m ready to move into 2010.
So in the spirit of reflection and moving forward (and yes, it’s possible to do both), here’s 10 great, big, off-the-charts,shout-out-loud, moments I’m excited for in 2010.
1. I’m really working hard on being a better teacher. December… well, let’s just say December left …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
October 6th, 2009 in and now you might know everything, confession of the day, hello universe? I love you, i should be a cheerleader, i think my sweetness gave you a cavity, it's a good thing, love or something like it, man I'm such a girl, men, no i haven't gotten laid, other people say it better, right on my sleeve, the one that nobody reads because of the title, the title says it all, things I don't say outloud, vague is vogue, what the hell, when i say it anyway It surprises me when I discover I am loved.
That sounds silly doesn’t? As though one should take for granted being loved as easy as one takes for granted air or space or the continued beat of their own heart despite a deep rooted love for corn dogs.
But it surprises me to discover I am loved.
When the words leave someone else and are shot straight to me- like a rubber band filled with nervous excitement, ” I love you“, three words that light up even the darkest night, I find that I have no room to be delighted- …READ MORE

I regularly am delighted by my talents (like knowing all the words to this song – just for you Ben), nod in agreement when people tell me I’m great (I assure you, this is a little more adorable and far less annoying than I just made it sound), and marvel at my genius. But people? I’ve got faults. Heaps of them. Truckloads of them. So many that you could stack them up, climb on top of them and touch the moon with your fingertips.
See? I wasn’t kidding.
September has been an amazing month but …READ MORE

Nelly lyrics for my title? Either I’m forging new ground or else I’m regressing to 2002 and someone should take me out back with a shovel and put me out of my misery.
Either way, this lyric is one that has been popping into my head lately. I have no idea totally know why. I think because (start looking for your shovel), this particular song makes me ridiculously happy. And right now? I am ridiculously happy.
Like the kind of happy makes normal people want to shout from rooftops and makes us technology whores write blog posts …READ MORE
August 26th, 2009 in 1/2 funny 1/2 serious 100% important, because US health care makes me sad, confession of the day, disappointment, Gore makes green sexy, here is my heart, if you're shallow and you know it clap your hands!, introspection sometimes causes me to drink, it makes sense to me, it's ironic because I'm Canadian, it's the environment stupid, italics make it appear more thoughtful/interesting, Josh Lyman needs his own tag, let's still be friends?, love or something like it, man I'm such a girl, men, my passive aggressiveness is devastating, no i haven't gotten laid, people i like, pretty hair makes me happier, relationships, so egan will LOVE this, something I won't forget, the one that nobody reads because of the title, things I don't say outloud, this one is about you, vague is vogue, Wednesday nights make me frisky, when i say it anyway I knew a guy once who had the annoying habit of cracking his knuckles before sleep. It drove me INSANE. Nothing is more unsettling than drifting off and being awakened by a large CRACK!, followed by nine more CRACKS! . (Well, of course there are things more unsettling than this but it really does make my top five- sandwiched in between being woken up by someone staring at you and finding out that your ex-boyfriend used to masturbate to your grade 9 graduation photo. Bullet? Dodged.).
So, I did what any girl who loves sleep more than she should- I …READ MORE

1. Flowers will never fix everything, but they sure as hell can’t hurt. (Unless they are my favourite flower- peonies and then let’s face it, they can fix everything).
2. When you are wrong, admit it. When you are sorry, say it. When you are in love, declare it.
3. Sometimes it just won’t go your way. And in those moments, it’s perfectly acceptable to stay in your pajamas, eat a lot of string cheese and watch Regis and Kelly (and secretly hate Kelly for being utterly perfect so early in the morning. Her arms! …READ MORE
July 24th, 2009 in hey it's Friday! let's say something nice, I'm yoda. Everyone else is a grasshopper, it makes sense to me, Josh Lyman needs his own tag, lists, man I'm such a girl, quote of the day, the one for Renee about her big day, the title says it all, the world according to me You know, I get it. Me giving marriage advice is like, Tara Reid giving tips on sobriety. Or Kanye West give lessons on modesty. Or Jenna Jameson talking about the virtues of virginity.
I think I just compared myself to a porn star.
Let’s just move along.
As many of you know, the always lovely Renee is getting married. What you may not know is that she’s been my secret idol since she she met Chelsea Clinton and I may or may not have volunteered my life (more than once) to getting her into public office (Renee, not Chelsea). She’s …READ MORE

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
July 7th, 2009 in and now you might know everything, find the dorkiest sentence in this, i complain because I care, I want to make Jim Halpert a mix tape, it makes sense to me, lists, man I'm such a girl, men, single girl stories, swimming in a sea of self pity, the title says it all, the world according to me, you're skimming this one You know, there was a moment today when I realized that being single sometimes really sucks. Did I get a wedding invitation and not have a date? Was I realizing that there’s no way I was going to be able to eat all the rice krispie squares I made? Did I have an itch I couldn’t scratch?
No. No annnnnd No (and for that last one, get your head out of the gutter).
I was having to drive my car in for an oil change. You know when you have to drive your car in and make sure it lines …READ MORE
