The Changes

I remember spending most of Grade 2 standing in the corner, in Miss Carscadden's class. Was the adoring fall guy for the class comedian, Keith Fairley. My laughter at Keith's childish jokes really irritated the teacher, and always got a "your nuttier than a fruitcake" from Keith. It was burning shame and Nirvana both at once.

 When comedian Mike MacDonald was first diagnosed with bipolar disorder 12 years ago, his first worry was whether it would impact his comedy career.

It really does beat a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. According to researcher Nicole Chovil PhD., making people laugh is indeed good medicine.

As I continue working on my resolution, I am becoming more and more aware of my surroundings. Funny how that happens?

I have spent the last half an hour watching my 20 month son tap dance on a pizza wheel. To explain this we went to the East Van Farmer's Market yesterday and as we were standing in line at one of the produce stalls (you can now get baby carrots!).

This past weekend I went to the GreenLiving show, I had high expectations and I admit I was a little disappointed in the quantity of vendors that where there. The ones that were there were fantastic.
