Challenge, accepted...

Things I did this weekend:

1. Saved a child's life
2. Had a near, near-death experience
3. Snuck a boy home

I guess I can follow through...

Allllllrighty. 31 Posts in August. I'm exhausted. And a little proud. So I've been watching Quints by Surprise (I love me my TLC) Really? Yall took fertility medication, and were surprised to conceive quints? Surprised after 6 seasons of Jon and Kate Plus 8? (Sidebar: Jon was never really needed for the success of the show. He doesn't even fit the rhyme-scheme.) What these shows don't show are the developmental and physiological delays that many multiple births can experience. The Gosselins and the Joneses are pretty lucky to have such healthy multiples. And whatever happened to Octomom?

I'm allready envisioning my future office

For our February 5th issue of the East Toronto Observer I was a production editor. Our faculty coordinator, Lindy gave me a colour printout of the front page. My immediate thought: Yay! I'll have something to hang in my office...one day. Second thought: Shit. I'm going to have to frame this. Third thought: What a wonderful new project to procrastinate on. We put out a pretty damn good issue, if I do say so myself... I'll figure out a way to post it on the blog... after much procrastination. Am also teaching a production workshop to some TDCB kiddies over my reading week. Because I really have too much free time on my hands, I need to throw another ball into the air! Oh, and just an FYI, loyal readers (haha). I will be posting a homework assignment tonight. For my multiplatform journalism class, Cathy Perry from the CBC gave a presentation to my class. Incidentally, she went to high school with my mother, and crazier still, I went to Cathy's 50th birthday party the next day.
