ADMIN: A Return to Normality

Wednesday, August 31st, 2005

I escaped the East, returning to my downtown hideaway in Vancouver last Friday. After a series of unfortunate events, such as the near demise of my uncle, I’ve become very backed-up with e-mails to reply to and have a folder of saved links to archive here or delete. If you’re waiting on a reply from […]

Minties Tees

Saturday, August 6th, 2005

The lovely and talented Jocelyn, AKA Mister + Kisa’s photographer, has opened her tee-shop: Minties! Appealing to my recent obsession with super-soft tees, all Minties shirts are printed on American Apparel blanks and feature a variety of sass-mouth designs.

As someone with more than a couple nasty scars it’s nice to see a heroine with a big X scar across her chest who’s […]

Haggis, House, Hellions

Friday, August 5th, 2005

Haggis had to be put down this morning after the tumor in her bladder started causing continuous discomfort and pain. She was roughly 13 years old and had a good life after being adopted by my aunt and grandmother, who gave her lots of love and spoiled her with little soft toys. That’s all I […]

Exile to the East: Day #37

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2005

My captors have abandoned me for the time being but, with Canadian flights being backed up, I suspect an escape attempt would be futile. I have endured this long, surely I can manage another week or so. Surely I can. Until escape is possible I will continue to consume all manner of media and allow […]
