Dalton McGuinty (AKA a giant wiener who is premier of one of the poorest parts of Canada) did us all a real big favour and sent each taxpayer in Ontario the first installment of three bribe cheques this week so that we don’t hate him as much when we have to start paying the new equivalent of PST next month on such things as gasoline, Tim Hortons coffee, and groceries (not considered ‘basic’) under $4. I received mine today, and I just plum don’t know… Continue reading
Hairballs are ever prevalent at the Niklos Residence these days. That said: Sand cat. Let’s get one! I have to go bat Rico with a fur brush because he’s licking himself again. This could get messy. Share the post “” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading
Maybe less impressive if you have never been there, but since we got to explore Hungary just under two months ago in near perfect weather, I am really sad to see the amount of flooding that’s happened: Szentendre, where we saw this adorable dog; the water along the river was a lot lower when we were there. We got lost in this part of north-eastern Hungary because a road was closed and a bridge was flooded out at the time. We really should have gotten… Continue reading
Freekibble.com Freekibblekat.com Every day, go to each of the above sites and answer a trivia question. Whether you’re right or wrong, the site will donate 10 pieces of kibble to hungry animals, and you get to feel really good (or really horrible) about how much you (might not) know. They feed millions of dogs and cats while you answer a daily question and move on with your activities. It’s awesome! Another great site that feeds hungry animals is The Animal Rescue Site. If you also… Continue reading
It’s not often I get to say these words, but I am so glad someone blogged this! After mucking about in Lightroom, I somehow exported the lowest quality ever version of two really neat shots from Hungary that I found tonight, and they overrode the goddam originals! Thankfully, with that tip, I was able to get the pictures back to normal and learn my lesson to never trust Lightroom again.

There is an overwhelming sense of weird in the air lately. Trying to pinpoint its origins leaves the observer of weird at a loss. It’s just one of those weird seasons, and for once, it’s during springtime. This is new. It’s not helping that I have a Slash song in my head. That guy really loves his nasally-vocalled frontmen. It’s really not bad. Just nasally. The boy fell asleep early because I think he drank a beer tonight. Those things pack a wallop. Share the… Continue reading
Wake up the day after a shitty yesterday which was, at its end, erased by your boy, cool friends, and just two drinks of Moosehead. Have money in your pocket for a coffee for your drive to work for a very short shift. Share the post “How to Have a Nice Day” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading
Get up at 7:44am on a Saturday morning. Go to the market and have a shitty coffee that tastes so bad you can’t even finish it. Get pressured by some Luigi-looking guy with purposely-curled moustache to eat sausage when you already had a danish and cereal, and you really don’t like eating disgusting meat early in the morning because it sets your stomach off, not to mention you already had that awful coffee. Get made fun of by the Luigi-looking guy who pressures you to… Continue reading
What an amazing trip we had. There are so many great things about our trip to Hungary that I will in all likelihood go into at some point, but naturally, there’s something I need to get off my chest. This experience comes to you from our connecting flight in Rome. Italy, as it happens, was such a beautiful country as we flew in. The airport in Rome, however, needs to be seriously reworked. It is singlehandedly the worst airport known to man. At the very… Continue reading
