a lot of people say this, but my boss is the best

this is the second year I've worked at my job and the reason I decided to come back and work during my school year is completely because of her.
she's super into eating healthy and teaches yoga on the side and is more like my friend than my superior. we go for coffee breaks and have lunch at the organic restaurant up the street and everyone is her friend.
literally everyone.
today we went to the bank to drop off a deposit and she chatted with everyone in the place. everywhere she goes there's hugs and smiles and people remember her because she's genuinely interested in everyone and everything. after the bank we went to organza market and she said hello to everyone and then we went to the happy cooker and she said hello to the owner and then we went back to work where everyone said hello to her because you can't help but like her.
so this post is for you, Linda, if you ever see it.
thanks for inspiring me to be a better person.
(and also for the free hot yoga passes! score!)

you can be Coupland, I'll be Murakami: An Anniversary Post

today is my three-year anniversary with the greatest man in the world aka tyrone.friday he took me out for a fancy dinner. we put on our coats and bought hot chocolates and walked through the chilly night air and held hands and talked and laughed and it was good. we had red wine and foie gras and pork belly and too many mussels. we walked home. we kissed. it was perfect. I can't even tell you.
this past year has been tough. our toughest yet. I fucked up. he fucked up. we made mistakes and hurt each other and said things that we both wish we could take back. it breaks my heart to think about it. but we're still here.
we're still here.
together.
we drove across the country. we were in a music video. we rocked the winnipeg wine festival. we camped in the mountains. we drank on the river with @rhondalmartens. we brought home a new friend. we manhandled MEME and Folk Fest a week apart. we helped make an awesome mini movie with friends. we watched all the star trek movies.
but not in that order. plus lots more.
I'm looking forward to what we get up to next year.
I love you, Tyrone. thanks for putting up with my shit for another spin around the sun.
happy anniversary.

watching this is getting me excited

because in a few hours I'll be at one of my favourite venues watching one of my favourite musicians, with with some of my favourite people.
I've pimped dan mangan a lot on this blog 'o mine, especially lately as I've been counting down the days till when I get to sit in an audience and get all teary about how amazing his music and his lyrics and his voice are, holding tyrone's hand way too tight, drinking in the music.
and this video is just
perfect.
so if you've ignored every time I've talked about him until now
do yrself a favour
watch it.
it's good, I promise.
hung out with my dad on Halloween
- by admin
it was extra uncool because we weren't even in costume (I know, right)
but he picked me up and we had dinner and we hung out
which was nice because I don't see much of my super-busy old man these days.
he tried to take me to park towers but it was closed
which I should have remembered because @cenquist told me so
bur whatevs.
so we wound up at junky boston pizza
where we had junky french onion soups
and mediocre restaurant food
and caught up on omg months of school
and I talked about Tyrone too much
but what else is new.
some peeps are out at crystal castles (omg) tonight
others are up to halloween mischief
but me
I was happy just to hang out with my dad
who I love to the moon and back.
Happy Halloween.
