  • Provincial Parks – First Visit in Ontario

    Like Ken Burns, I think that provincial and national parks are great. When I was living in Alberta, without any thought of ever leaving, I had thought about planning a photography project; I was going to photograph all of the Provincial Parks in Alberta. While I rarely miss living there, I do miss the beauty,…

  • I’m up too late

    Not having anything to get up for in the morning means that I stay up late. I did some laundry, which is now clean but still in the hamper. After the laundry, I did an assortment of things. Here’s a picture that sums up my evening. Bonus points if you know what song was playing…

  • Sketches and planning a zine

    I finished my coursework for today, today. In fact, I finished it in good time. Well, it was late but it was on time.

  • I am a Terrible Student

  • I ain’t touching your baby

    I ain’t touching your baby

    I just got back from London, Ontario, where I was visiting my cousin, his family, and six-week-old baby boy. Just before I was about to leave, my cousin sat down next to me with his sleeping child pressed against his chest. I shifted toward to the nearest armrest.

  • A Decade-long Memory of What Happened Changed in One Extra Second

    Yesterday, June 30, 2015, an extra second was added to our clocks. I have no real idea why exactly, but it’s probably similar to why we have leap years. I’m not sure if it was because of that extra second, but I’ve nothing else to blame it on: I learned something about my past that…
