The home computer has gone awry. There's some virus that none of my anti-virus or anti-spyware products can detect. This is annoying and happens way too often. Who is it that has so little of a life they resort to creating viruses? Anyone out there know how to get rid of a FakeAlert-B Trojan?
It's very hot in Calgary. Compared to the sticky heat of Japan/Korea it's nothing but for someone who likes winter it's gross. I think I could fry an egg on the tin garbage can outside. I wouldn't really attempt this considering how dirty the garbage can likely is.
I went to a relaxation yoga class today and then fell asleep during the last pose (lying down on your back with eyes closed and breathing in and out in a darkened room). Luckily I wasn't the only one. The two friends I went with woke up later than I did.
I've become addicted to the reality TV show So You Think You Can Dance. I tell myself I watch it purely for the dancing. I think I might by lying to myself.
Well, that's my dull news for now. Stay tuned for more even duller updates! Cheers

Weddings and other stuff
Well, it's again been a shamefully long time since I've updated this thing. Over a month! How time flies...
My wedding to a certain JET participant is approaching and with it the usual phone calls to florists, photographers, videographers, dress alterers, commissioners and whathaveyou. My daytimer is chock full of phone numbers, appointments and post-its detailing what I need to do for the coming week. It's looking rather haggard at the moment.
I've discovered on this path to matrimony that 'wedding' is another word for 'money'. Where a normal cake will cost maybe 20-30 bucks a wedding cake is easily 10 times that amount. More work goes into it but is it REALLY worth that much? I'm expecting the cake to come decorated with priceless diamonds.
On a real-estate note, I've defied Calgary's vacancy rate of 1.1% and managed to rent an apartment in a fairly nice area of the city. So now, I have a place to live. Hooray!
This post isn't that illuminating, and I'm going to blame that on my fatigue. I'll update again when I have something interesting to report!
