blues, folk, funk, R&B, bluegrass, classical, ohyah - Flamenco!! I love the French CBC radio station....

Go check out my very dear friends: Jeremy Fisher and Corwin Fox!


anything with more than 8 words to a page and no children's pictures!

I've taken to 'historical fiction' lately - stuff about 16th century royal England/France. Also, fictional or non about rural Italy and France... One of my pipe dreams is to live in rural France one day (only slightly more plausible because of Joe's origins)...


documentaries (Black Gold was a recent one, and Darwin's Nightmare - brilliant!) - action (not too much senseless bloodshed), drama, foreign, a good-guffaw comedy... pretty much anything!

if it unveils corruption and flaunts scandal (especially from the Yanks), I eat it up...

Princess Bride (longest standing all time favourite)....um, I'll try to list more....

Howdy, folks!

Life has found me in Victoria, BC with my dear husband, Joe (married 10 years January 2008!) - who came hither from England to be with this old gal - and our gorgeous girls, Claire (9) and Lily (5) and our menagerie (dog and 4 cats). I've been here for just over 11 years, after 9 in London & Toronto.

We own a bicycle shop and have lost ourselves in that and parenting and living life in the blender (it's an actual place, you know). I'm waiting for oxygen. I have definitely not come into my own yet (whatever the hell that means!), and am trying to encourage that... somehow... All in all, content with the lot I've chosen. Though I am not at all where I thought I'd be 10 years ago!!


peace, silence, sleep, amazing food, ice cream, a really good olive oil, apparently Merlot, living in a sewer with Arrlynn, compassionate people, a good sense of humour, Cocoa Camino 55% dark chocolate slowly savoured...

inefficient advanced green drivers, heat, cold food (that is supposed to be hot), incompassion, neediness, loud noises, crappy chocolate...

I have yet to really reclaim that portion of my life, where I do things for myself.... but, I putter (read: waste time) on the Internet; do a weekly voiceworks workshop that terrifies me but I love it so much; love walking our dog by myself; reading at bedtime (if I don't fall asleep in Lily's bed first!); laughing raucously...

i stopped reading after ``drink more wine``   

s`all i need to hear right there!

no, no more new-house-smell, but I realllllly wish the ``noises`` would stop. freaks me out. and does not do well with my already-forming insomnia problem...!

ok, u used ``grate``  ``prada`` and ``shoes`` all in one sentence.

do u LIKE seeing me cry?

anyway, it`s all figured out.  Menthos. Baking Soda. Orange Trident gum. Thats the secret ingredient. (u DO remember the gum, right)

production is in it`s final stages.

expect the money and bling to flow freely very soon.

we`ll need code words. new names. new business cards.
