Little Lizard Friend

Today I watched a lizard try to catch mosquitos for hours upon hours on our windowsill. I went outside and he allowed me to get very close to him with my camera. He sure was cute.

I’ve never collected airmiles on anything other than gasoline, despite how many flights I’ve taken in the past seven years.
I tallied (almost) all of them up yesterday morning. I think I’ve missed a couple to/from Halifax/Ontario, but here’s the majority of them, anyway. When I write them all down, i just stare at [...]

Grasshoppa

I could have eaten him for a meal.

Those who know me, know that I am not a fan of The Simpsons. I will watch it only if I’m living in Mexico with no television, forced to download all shows and I live with two males who have downloaded it, and I have nothing else to do.
I watched more Simpsons when I [...]

Clive and I have a pseudo book club. He and I read the same books; so far I’ve read (he’s read almost all of these as well) in the past five weeks:
Find Her, Keep Her, Anne Marie Winston (SUCKED HORRIBLY)
The Gift of Fear, Gavin DeBecker (Informative)
1/3 of Broken Wings, VC Andrews (Horrible, again)
Fear Nothing, Dean [...]

To celebrate, I’ve set up an account with NotifyList.com, so if you’re interested in getting an email from me when I update, please enter in [...]

This picture was taken this summer on one of our fishing trips. It cracks me up. We’d been trying to get the timing right to have a neat “diving off the wharf” picture, and this is one of our outtakes. I don’t remember the reason why we didn’t actually jump, but Clive’s facial expression and [...]

In a week I’m going to Nova Scotia to visit my family. It’s not a trip that Clive and I can afford, but I’m going to go anyway. I’m really excited.
Of all the places I’ve been in the world, no where has felt like home like Nova Scotia does. I love it there. [...]

The Chef

The dinner was delicious! I’m going to have to get him to cook more from now on!
