One More Thing To Get Used To About Canada
I totally forgot about Daylight Savings Time. Singapore, being at the equator, has the same number of hours in the day and thus never experiences longer and shorter days/nights.
Dammit, I just lost an hour…
The Weekend Routine
Today ended up being quite productive in terms of activity, if not work.
There were a few things that needed doing, so we once again hit the streets, a much easier thing to do since it was actually +5 outside today, and went down to the infamous Queen Street West. The first stop [...]
Lame Friday
Because all I did was arrange stuff in our shelves and play with a demo for a program called Poser, which the Wife is considering picking up to help with references for artwork.
Meatballs & Mortality
A semblance of order is beginning to descend on our apartment as familiar things are put into their final places–hopefully for a few years at least. We had one of those “duh” moments were we looked at all the CDs we’d brought across the ocean and realized we had nothing to put [...]

Our stuff arrives tomorrow morning.
Assuming that nothing unfortunate happened to certain long, black box that’s just about the [...]
Shopping On Sunday
Once again, we ventured out into downtown, which is not too difficult to do since technically we live in downtown.
But this was our first extended foray into Queen Street West, which is, of course, where all the Cool Folks hang out. We sort of side-stepped that portion entirely, however, went Way Out [...]
Paralyzed By Choice
In what is quickly turning into our weekly ritual, we once descended on Bloor Street to pay a visit to our favorite shops and interact with the people that run the stores. This is becoming immensely satisfying as we’re starting to get recognized as “that nice artsy couple” and are being treated [...]
