Today, I got the best bikini wax I've ever had.
Also, I've decided to kill this blog.

Yesterday, I went to a psychic. What was really great about this psychic is that she's down the street from this pub called The House on Parliament, which is cheap, has AMAZING food, good atmosphere, and Guinness on tap.
Shotgun Milos, I may have found your spiritual home.
I'll be in the Hague next Tuesday. posted by Alleen at 1:10:06 AM

How gross is this?
The other day, I'm looking at my grandma's teeth wondering why they're so yellow and chipped. I thought she wore dentures, and things being as they are, you would expect dentures to be white and sparkly and, well, whole.
So, I asked my dad about this and found out this fun tidbit about grandma:
My grandma had all of her teeth pulled out in 1965 when she was making plans to come to Canada. Her rationale was that Canadian dentists were expensive and they just couldn't afford them. And so she pulled out a bunch of rotten teeth, and, since my family's all about throwing the babies out with the bathwater, she also pulled out something like 16 perfectly healthy teeth.
That same day, she had a set of dentures made. After almost 40 years, she is still wearing this same set.
Yikes.
In other news, while I am enjoying my time in Toronto, I've come to the conclusion that I don't think I want to come back here to live anytime soon. posted by Alleen at 7:40:39 PM

In answer to a few questions... Yes, I am holding Blakers in front of a rack of porn dvds in that picture. I know it's a bit weird. That's exactly why his mom took a picture. posted by Alleen at 6:25:56 PM
Right now, I'm working on staying in Toronto another week. posted by Alleen at 3:39:03 PM
Today, a guy simultaneously hit on me and my mom.
While I must applaud his exceptional taste in women, I have to say I've never been so grossed out in my life.
No really. I swear I almost barfed.
I did barf, however, a couple of days ago. I was feeling ill, and I was frantically trying to find someone in my vicinity whose toilet I could borrow to barf in. So I'm calling a friend, and as I'm leaving the message, I pass Sam Raimi on the street.
Keith's answering machine has a message on it that sounds like this:
"Um... yeah... hi... I'm feeling really crap, and I was just wondering if I could come over and... Hey, I just passed Sam Raimi on the street. I just walked by St. Andrew's Poultry in Kensington Market, and Sam Raimi was walking the other way. Anyway, yeah, you're not there, so I'll talk to you later."
About ten minutes after that, I barfed all over Starbucks.
I don't know what this all means, but it may be a sign. posted by Alleen at 5:42:03 AM

It was Gian Luca! Happy birthday, Gian Luca!
Actually, I'm not sure on the date, but it's sometime around now, isn't it?
Anyway, whatever. Hope you enjoyed it.
In other news, I spent yesterday and today catching up with my friends' children. Blakers and Junior, who totally rock, are respectively the children of Aleta and Keith.
Hmmm...
Maybe there's a less confusing way of putting this.
Junior is Keith's kid... He's totally cute and he's 2 and a half. To see pics of Junior, click here and scroll down.
Blakers is Aleta's monster. He's also totally cute, and he's 8 months. Aleta has lots of pictures of him on her site, including one with me. I must confess that Blake did not do that to my hair, though he would have made a handy excuse.
Anyway, these kids are not even slightly related. Except through me, which doesn't really count. But really, how awesome are they? posted by Alleen at 5:27:17 AM

20 Gb is not enough! I'm trading up my iPod.
I'm getting lamer and lamer by the second. I can feel it. posted by Alleen at 3:40:32 PM
