It's gone viral

For all of the YouTube addicts out there, AOL's The Videologist presents the Best Viral Videos of 2007.

I think my favourite is still The Landlord from Funny or Die.

All good things must come to an end

Here we are on day 30 of NaBloPoMo and I've done it - I actually managed to post every single day of the month. So what have I learned from this experiment? I've learned that even though I may not have something to blog about every day, I do have something to post most days and that I shouldn't sit on something I want to post about because chances are I will forget about it and it won't get posted at all. I've come to accept the fact that I'm not a prize winning writer but that I shouldn't worry about it - not all posts have to be long intellectual discourses. And lastly, even though it would be nice to have a large readership, I should post about things because they bring me enjoyment. And hey, if someone stumbles upon my blog and happens to like, that's just a bonus.

So, it's been fun. To cap off this posting extravaganza, I give you another photo.


The Lido Cafe, Calgary, Alberta

I have lots of great memories of this place - Thursday morning $3.88 breakfasts, mini jukeboxes, fall in Kensington...

I picked up the new issue of Blueprint magazine the other day and fell in love with the dress on the cover from Basix II. Unfortunately, it would probably wash me out. Oh well, a girl can dream...

Sweet mother of pearl

Only watch the following PSA from WSIB Ontario's prevent-it.ca if you don't scare easily. I swear to always clean up any kitchen spills!

In keeping with my mid-century modern kick here are two clocks that I adore.

Meet the mascots

The offical mascots for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games have been revealed. Miga is a sea bear, Quatchi is a young sasquatch, and Sumi is an animal spirit. Surprisingly, I think they are quite cute even if they are more of a Japanese style than Canadian.
