I am a diciple of Mark Twain

I have always been a "precocious" child. I learned at a young age how to dupe my friends and family into doing what I want them to do. I attribute this to my natural Tom Sawyer ability to convince people that doing me a favour is fun. Today is Mark Twain's Birthday! Happy Birthday Mr. Clemens! I would like to thank our dark overlords over at Google for putting up a birthday tribute which is thoughtful inspiring and based on my favourite part of Tom Sawyer.. Paying Tom Sawyer... To White Wash A Fence.  Here.. listen to Tom Sawyer by Rush


Then.. watch this legomation.. narrated by a little Russian boy.. of the best scene in literature.
Wasn't that AMAZING!?!?!?!

It is getting to be that time, where you want to start making snow flakes on the interwebs, here is a link so that you can do it.

Because.. Canada is awesome, we are curing anemia in Cambodia by tricking people into cooking with a large chunks of iron in their stews by turning it into a magical fish charm that is good luck. What is your country doing?

I was watching My Drunk Kitchen during lunch yesterday, her description of what Toronto is, is pretty accurate. My husband however, said that she is offensive.. I think that she is just drunk.

I have recently joined Good Reads! You should be my friend. Good Reads is essentially a look what I have read website, it also makes it so that you can join Book Clubs. I recently joined a book club with members from the BC Creative Geeks and BC Browncoats. Our first book we are going to read is going to be about DRAGONS! :D * is a geeky nerdy dork*

Have a good day

What I did on my Veteran's Day/ Remembrance Day Vacation

I went to Montreal to visit family over the long weekend that was Veteran's Day/Remembrance Day up in Canada.  It was a great time, filled with family and friends and spousal bonding.  I ate food I was allergic too, but also found some thing that were amazing to behold and felt like they should be in my life more often.

So this is the cool mobile  I blogged about..

And more it

and more 

and yet more

It was pretty cool.. totally worth many pictures

oooo a turny key

These names are important


I really like them and wished that I could have them in my  place of living


I totally turned of my phone and took a picture of the clouds 

This.. this was the best salad in the world. It was from a chopped salad place in a mall food court


mmmm poutine

Seriously.. look at how lovely the cheese, gravy and potatoes!



MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
This is a donut that Peter is was in love with.. I ate  one as well.. I got sick, but it was  worth it.


Cool pet store that the hubs used to work at. They have big pretty birds that are hand fed. 

This one was bobbing its head and then I would bob my head and then it would bob its head.. it was a cute little game


More poutine pictures 
It looks so good doesn't it.

Yup, proof I am eating food that is bad for me

This is another example of  food that they eat in Montreal.. 2 hot dogs, greasy fries,  coke.



My husband's family dog. hehehehehe He is so cute.. when he is  trying to look ferocious. 


Costumes from Cirque du Soleil. 

This was an interesting poster. It is in French, it has a got Asian girl...who is a goth.  Don't forget your backpack!



This is an airplane wing. I hate airplane wings.. they usually have grimlins on them.

and then... it snowed.. In BC.. 







The end.

Live blogging my trip to my in-laws..

I am sitting at the Calgary Airport.. it is pretty good. I am glad that airports offer free wifi.. and I am glad that my netbook is awesome. I can blog anywhere as long as I can get a signal. I would like to say that also.. I hate flying and that I am easily amused.


These are the cool kinetic sculptures I am sitting under right now while waiting for my flight to board. SOOOoooOooooooOOOOo cool.

I also, learned somethings today.. like.. when you see a double rainbow.. it is really just a rainbow that is being refracted twice through the rain drops... that is also the reason why they are mirror images of each other. 

They are about to board my plane.. so I have to go but thanks for being there for me internet family.

I had a friend on facebook ask about Norse Mythology books for his son, because they just saw Thor and his kid wanted to know more about Asgard.. and of course I went all nerdy and shit and suggested a book I read a lot as a child.. I wanted to share with you my FAVORITE Norse myth about Thor in the Land of the Giants!
