The Ways of Frugality
So earlier today I wrote about how I let my credit card get away from me recently… Now I’m not in debt and never have been, but I have certainly seen some lean times which cause me to go into saving mode. My recent stupid actions have pushed me into that saving mentality again. When…

The Last Day of Freedom…
Well, today is my last relaxing day at home before I head back into the office. They’re not expecting me until tomorrow, but since the surgery and recovery went so well I was actually thinking of going in today, a day early. I even got up and dressed, but then… I just didn’t feel like…

And I’m Back!
Thanks for your well-wishes everyone, I certainly appreciated them! Finding out that I needed(?) surgery again was a hard pill for me to swallow. While I don’t regret getting LASIK done the first time, it was (and still is) the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I have a terrible phobia of…

I might be gone for a while…
I forgot to mention in here that tomorrow morning (Thursday) I might be having laser eye surgery again. If I do in fact have it, that means that I probably won’t be posting for a while. So. You’ve been warned. Wish me luck! ————— This post written by Ginger at Ginger Won’t Snap. Like what…

As expected, the place was packed! I will not reveal the details of the film, but bring some tissues for the dramatic moments,…

Melona Madness
There’s a Korean grocery store in (where else?) Korea Town that sells Melona in boxes… So where do you think I headed after work today? Yep. I was just in sight of the store when Rogers called me and told me the repairman was waiting at my house *doh!* So I had to scurry home…

Mmmmarvellous Melona!
Totally found a new treat today, folks! I was out for a stroll at lunch with a friend and she introduced me to the heavenly bliss that is the Melona Ice Bar. *drools* It’s a Korean treat that can only be found at a few places in T.O. What a shame! I found it at…

SATC Pre-Screening
This week did not have a good start to it. Yesterday morning I twisted my ankle getting out of the streetcar, I was unable to “get my groove on” at work to get things done, and my internet poops out for the SECOND time in 3 days, requiring a second tech to come out and…

Money Goals Update
So umm, I’ve not been doing too well lately with money. I’ve incurred a lot of expenses for various things (NIN tickets, train tickets to Ottawa, T’s bachelorette, clothes) lately, and have jumped back on the diet bandwagon, so that spending has gone up as well. Although… I’ve just updated my progress bars, and things…
