Yes, I’m jealous. Though the idea of that many people reading my blog scares me). I often enter said giveaways. And […]

I have entered the contest on Chic Runner’s website to win a shopping spree at Zensah! And they ship to Canada so it’s a contest whose prize I can actually win! Yippee! And now for a 12km run… Grumble. Though I think it would be way more fun in one of these skirts…

I was my own flash mob on the 4th ring. Also, think twice before you search for “White hot” on YouTube. Especially at work. Edit: I can’t get the video to embed correctly, so here’s the link

A few months ago, my friend Elaine sent an email out with an invite she had received to the White Hot Gala for the National Ballet. As young folks in the city, we were offered tickets for about $30 to the event. We were also told that there would be the opportunity to do our […]

No, not that kind of white dress. But the dress I bought to take along to Vegas. Those of you who follow me on Twitter might remember some tweets about a lost (and then found) bracelet of mine that I left at a store I had stopped at the night before to try [and then […]
