About Me

I'm a copy editor for two mags in T.O. where I live with my dawg, Wren, who's the cutest best dog ever.
I'm exciting, interesting, boring, funny and cranky; usually all at the same time. I watch meaningless television and look forward to the BBC International News at 6 and documentaries on CBC. Everything that I love or feel passionately about (or something I'm just amused by) is on this site. Love it, hate it, agree or disagree...It's all good.
"Peace is not something you wish for; it's something you make, something you do, something you are, something you give away."
"This is the way of peace: Overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth and hatred with love."
- Peace Pilgrim.
"You must be the change you want to see in the world."
-Mahatma Gandhi
Forgotten Language
Once I spoke the language of the flowers;
Once I understood each word the caterpillar said;
Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings;
And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.
Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets,
And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow;
Once I spoke the language of the flowers.
How did it go?
How did it go?
-Shel Silverstein

"Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace."
-Buddha.

I will not play at tug o' war.
I'd rather play at hug o' war,
Where everyone hugs
Instead of tugs,
Where everyone giggles
And rolls on the rug,
Where everyone kisses,
And everyone grins,
And everyone cuddles,
And everyone wins.
-Shel Silverstein

"Sometimes when I get up in the morning, I feel very peculiar. I feel like I've just got to bite a cat! I feel like if I don't bite a cat before sundown, I'll go crazy! But then I just take a deep breath and forget about it. That's what is known as real maturity." Snoopy

so long 2006

As I sit in my apartment, nose dripping, head pounding and suffering from a cough that I'm certain is going to tear apart my rib cage, I realize that it's a perfect ending to what has been an incredib...

Blinded by love?

I just got off the phone with a very good friend of mine. She's in a new relationship, and because of this, has a sort of light (slightly nauseating) tone, as she excitedly tells me about her plans wi...
