Clean socks are a privilege, not a right
I seriously love that the crew behind Theatre Under The Stars have been faithfully producing fun family friendly shows down at Stanley Park for like FOREVER. It is a gorgeous location and they always put on great shows filled with enthusiastic casts of all ages…. One of the shows on right now is Andrew Lloyd […]
I was thinking about budgets and cost of living after a twitter conversation with unambig (who rocks by the way) that had stemmed from a snarky convo with angryinYVR who has yet to convince me he is angry about anything except people who don’t agree with him.

Apparently we BOTH had scored rather high for depression when they were keying in our questionnaires. I just laughed. Really…what a freaking surprise. Lack of sleep for a year tends to […]
