Notes from a bemused canuck
I used to have a flatmate in Montreal who had loads of cologne bottles in the bathroom and I used to tease him for it. I have just realised that I have become him.
There is l’Occitane Verdon, Polo blue, Channel Allure, l’Occitane Badian, l’Occitane Vetyver, Drakkar Noir, Bvlgari Aqua Marine and l’Occitane cèdre et orange.
Je suis une gidoune, aaaaaaahhhhh!
Snart: noun, a fart that happens when you sneeze.
First post-holiday back at work, and I’m sorting through my inbox and various dead-tree format paperwork. Day seems rather… long. Just found out that I missed an email last december informing me that I’m giving a presentation next week, doh! My new glasses are giving me a bit of grief for computer work :( I’m going to call my ophthalmologist about that tomorrow.
For the past 2 weeks, Bean has been getting up at the crack of dawn, full of pep. This morning, seeing as it’s a school day, I had to wake him up at 7:30. This does not bode well for his teenage years.
So I’ve finally gotten ’round to posting the pictures I’ve taken over Christmas (or, those that are easily accessible on my phone, at least). Some of the best ones:
A few of those will already have been posted here and there ;)

We spent most of the day unpacking, doing laundry, tidying up and putting away all the Christmas decorations. Nice sunny day. I mentioned to Katy that I missed English deli sandwiches the I could eat on the go. Going to fleur de pain to get some bread, I was reminded that Swiss ones ain’t bad either.
We were in Toys ‘R Us earlier today when we saw this. I mean, really? Some toy exec somewhere signed off on this product design? WTF were they thinking??
A nude woman taking her pet tiger for a walk along the beach. Nice. Random. I’d love to hear the story behind that.
Just because I need a giggle.
