Wandered around downtown whilst waiting to see Julia/Julie. A great film. That Meryl Streep is amazing as Julia Child. We hit the Italian Centre Shop to load up on all things Italian. Came home and ate the Italian stuff, and concluded our day with a wander through Old Strathcona. The usual 12 block walk, with…

Farmer’s Market & Weenie Roast at My Cousin’s
Strolled over to the Farmer’s Market yesterday, and that was the extent of my walking. Unless you count vacuuming the apartment… and walking from the fire pit to the loo at my cousins. It was a great evening – Michael and my cousins child setting off a rocket with baking soda and vinegar as the…
Sugar Bowl
Today I wandered along Whyte Ave only to be disappointed that my stationery store does not carry the Moleskine 18 month format journal. My disappointment was quickly diminished by meeting a good friend at the Sugar Bowl for two cartoon sized servings of Hoegaarden, and a 9% syrupy bottle of hootch that I don’t remember…
Same Old Block
12 block walk this evening. That’s it. Only event was a cyclist with a child in tow nearly ran into Michael. Beautiful evening. Warm with golden sunshine.
Short "Fleeting" Walk
On account of preparing for a colonoscopy, and having the need of a loo within five paces, I am counting my walk to bus, and the extra six blocks I added by getting off two stops early on my commute home, as my walk for the day.
Boring Block
12 block walk through the ‘hood. Can hear Big and Rich and the happy crowd at Telus Field.
Finished with F’s
Now that Fringe is over, I have to get a more creative about my walk stories. I had an extra two block walk this morning on my way to work. Got to the bus stop. Saw the bus. Put hand into the pocket with the bus pass… no bus pass! So home I went, muttering…
Fringe Finale
Sad and happy this is the last day of Fringe. Today we started with Red Bastard in Acacia Hall. We laughed the entire show, but I was terrified I was going to be singled out to perform some antic, then sad when I wasn’t. We managed to get home for a few minute breather, then…
Fun Fringe!
The 12 block walk today included another pit stop at Holy Trinity Anglican Church to watch the Maltese Bodkin. An interesting play where time collides as Shakespeare’s best meets a 1930’s private eye with a defective lighter. The show was highly entertaining, and for a two hour play, the time went quickly. However, prior to…
Fruitcake Fringe
Our walk last night found us in the middle of Fringe, and to fortify ourselves for our show, we found a nice bar that served a delicious Bull Dog. What’s a Bull Dog you ask? It’s a Slurpee type of margarita with a baby bottle of Corona tipped upside down in it. Delicious. I am…
