“Did you not request the bed?”
Aug 8th
I got back from Ottawa on Friday and I will write a post about my week away. But, something from the trip stood out and I thought it deserved its own post.
I checked into the hotel on Monday since there would be opportunities to film and take pictures on Tuesday. Natalie got a room with a king sized bed and I ended up in a room with two double beds. No big deal as the room was a decent size and it had a full bathroom and a good sized closet.
When the work stuff wrapped up on Tuesday, Natalie and I went out for dinner. We didn’t have time to do any tourist stuff as we both had early mornings the next day. By 9:30pm, I was walking back into my room. It was dark so I made my way over to the lamp on the night stand. When the light came on, I immediately noticed what I had failed too when I walked into the room: there was a single bed wedged in between the two double beds.

“Something to ask you”
Feb 8th
S and I have gotten back to watching HGTV since we often find that there isn’t anything good to watch on television. We’ve been enjoying this season’s Million Dollar Listing. A few weeks ago, S and I laughed at how neurotic Chad can be.
He had gone to great lengths to prepare a nice dinner for his girlfriend. His mother, who was helping him cook the meal asked him what the special occasion was. “I’m going to pop a question,” he said. When one hears “pop the question,” usually it’s in relation to a marriage proposal.
Being Chad, it didn’t have anything to do with asking his girlfriend’s hand in marriage. The question he wanted to ask his girlfriend? He wanted her to sign a legal document that would give him 50% ownership of her dog. Needless to say, the girlfriend was not impressed and quickly excused herself from the table.
Gig-a-what?

Oh Marigold. Such a sweet woman who’s English (or lack thereof sometimes) just makes her all the more endearing.
The other day she was practically in tears in frustration as it was taking her computer ten minutes to open a file and her boss was barking at her to run some reports. “I cannot work like this!” she said, throwing her hands up in the air.
The Button

A little back story: back in September when S and I went shopping for a winter coat for me, S also bought one for herself. It turned out it was the same as the one I’d gotten.
A few weeks ago, S sent me a message on the BlackBerry letting me know she’d bought a new winter coat. When I asked her why, she said she didn’t like the one she’d bought before.
Forward to yesterday:
Toque Head Redux
Oct 30th
The other day, S and I were bantering back and forth over e-mail. We were talking about options for setting up a home network since a colleague of S’s is moving next month and was wondering how to set one up. In the midst of the exchange, S wrote about her latest purchase and that lead to the following:
S: p.s. i bought another toque. yay! 
Me: To wear around the house? lol
S: it has flaps for over the ears! i am very excited about it. and i might actually wear it out of the house. when we go grocery shopping
So there you have it, S’s own words saying she might wear her new toque out of the house.
Upon getting home that day, I got S to model her new toque and I have to say, the flaps make her look adorable in it.
Too bad no one else will ever see it.
