I made it home for Christmas and made it back here! I even made it back here on the day I was supposed to! Phew! This Christmas, that was no small feat. I headed out to my brother’s place on Christmas Morning, not sure if Uber was going to ding me with a surge price. …

I Saw Carin Kicking Santa Claus
The night before I went to get my CPAP machine I affectionately call Santa Claus, I had a dream about what the training session would be like. In the dream, I was in a big room full of older folks and we were all learning how to use our machines. We had to watch a …
Oh Tansenbaum
It seems that Tansy is enjoying her new home. I asked for some pictures so I could give them to her raisers, and here’s what I got. I would say she’s one happy dog, even though she looks a little sad in the picture up top. My mom commented that her dog bed looked huuuuge. …
I May Have Dodged A Snow-Covered Bullet!
Everybody, sing along! Having gridlock Christmas was almost my experience. The plan was to head out today and head for Mom and Dad’s place, about 300 miles away. But because the roads still sound like they suuuuuuuck, we decided to head out tomorrow. This decision was made with no help from the folks at 570 …
The People Who Live In My Apartment Building
When I heard that song, I knew I wanted to have the chance to use it. Now seems like as good a time as any. Thankfully, most of the people who live in my apartment building aren’t as weird as the specimens in the song…although we’ve had a few prizes. But lately, I keep running …

Tell Me To Alter My Plans One More Time…
I guess I have some time to write this as I sit here on hold with Via Rail figuring out the very thing I’m talking about in this post. As this snow storm of seeming doom rumbles towards us, the news can’t stop telling us to “alter our travel plans. They make it sound so …
Christmas Is Interesting
I heard this depressing Christmas song the other day, not the one I referenced in the title though, and I wasn’t going to post it, but it won’t leave me. lyrics are here. So…Christmas is nearly here. How did that happen. I feel like it snuck up on me. Whenever I ask anyone else, they …
Hi! I’m Your Dream Devil!
Does anybody else think those Lotto Max dream coach commercials are super annoying and dumb? Basically, there’s this woman imagining what she could do with her lottery winnings, and this guy appears and tells her that as her dream coach, he wants her to dream bigger! Then the woman goes from imagining a country home …
Christmas Carol Lyrics You Won’t Hear At The Mall
I saw this the other day and I wasn’t sure if I was going to post it. Then I was walking around the Christkindl Market and listening to carols, and my mind was converting them to these ones…so I decided it needed a spot. I guess this showed up on Jimmy Kimmel Live last year. …

Santa Booby
I swear, I will write about other things than my adventures with my CPAP machine. It’s just so fascinating right now…at least to me. Remember when I said I hoped to have lots of weird dreams fuelled by good sleep? Well, that didn’t take long. Last night’s session with Santa Claus went the best it …
