Let’s make love and listen to Death from Above.
The pub at three in the afternoon on a Sunday? Why not?
Rusko, 23/04/11, Toronto … will I make it? I don’t think I have a choice. He’s the one who started all of this. I doubt I’ll think twice if I have to go alone.
The Tallest Man on Earth, 27/04/11, Edmonton. I hope someone can join me. I think I’d go alone to this one too. How can I pass this up?
It’s raining; it’s pouring. The old man is snoring.
We had a good day at work today. The work was simple and consistent. Then we ordered Nando’s for dinner. I swear Dean has created a monster. It is just so good. I was able to leave early which was a real bonus. Now I am home and plan to watch some mindless television while drinking a cup of tea. I have to work tomorrow morning BUT it’s my last weekend shift and I am stoked about that.
Today was a wonderful today.
I celebrated Chrissi’s birthday with her. She picked me up and we headed for the country. We had a refreshing lunch in Caversham then drove around the villages embracing the sunlight and green land. We went to see the Maharajah’s Well in Oxfordshire which was donated to the English village of Stoke Row by the Maharajah of Benares in the 1860’s....

What have you done today?
The Tyler clan will be on Northern territory come July. I can’t even express how happy that makes me.
We had a hilarious day at work. Long story short. An accountant with shares in the company does not like how us people, in the cupboard, can simultaneously work and converse. Today was the second time she’s had a fit for how much we talk amongst ourselves. It’s really the fact that she’s incapable of communicating how she feels and it comes out so negative. So we ended up trying...
I almost never overeat. I find it’s just not worth it but tonight Dean took me to Nando’s and not only did I get the itis, I am also not opposed to vomiting. I am just that full. I won’t actually puke because that would just be rank. I will however try and eat there again before I leave England. Portuguese food, man, you’re all missing out.
Thanks Dean!
My hair has finally been cut. Cheers Chrissy, I really appreciate it.
Eric and I went out tonight. We’re drunk. We ate nachos and watched Grey’s once we got home. SOLID NIGHT.
Strongbow and blackcurrant, oh how I’ll miss you.
Scrambled eggs for dinner then sleep. Work in the am.
I LOVE YOU ALL.
Yesterday I had the day off and it was a very relaxing yet produtive day. I read Haunted for a while, skyped with Kyle, did my laundry and dishes. Caro called me at one point and even though it was a quick conversation it was nice to hear her voice. Then she emailed me letting me know she found us a place to stay in Dublin. Yeahhhh, we are officially spending St. Patricks Day in Ireland and I...
Happy Valentines Day!
I had a wonderful day. I worked in the cupboard with two lovely people, ate lots of sweets on behalf of a crazy baking co-worker, then was picked up by my date. Chrissi bought me a cute little flower, I made a tasty pasta dish, and we watched ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’. Bedtime now, work in the am.
I love you all.

I had one of the best days today. It involved vintage shopping, Ethiopian food, a cute boy, victoria sponge cake, vanilla lattes, scrabble, then more vintage shopping. Thank you Chrissi!
I also have confirmation that Josh will be here for sure on the 6th and I think we made a pretty gnarly plan for Europe. Now we just need to book flights and hostels. Wish me luck.
I know all of you have at some point in your life inhaled water through your nose while showering. Well, ladies and gents, I did just that but the water had shampoo in it. It hurt so bad. Beware.
“People keep asking me about you, because I always tell them how in love with you I am, and they’re like, “LIKE WOULD YOU FUCK HER?” And I’m like, “No way. I couldn’t take advantage of BLOFJ like that. I would MAKE LOVE TO HER.” And then they call me lame.”
JB, you will always be the person to make my day.
You never see it coming, you just get to see it go.
This is how my mommmmma says goodbye in her emails … Be good and stay away from strange people!
My momma bear is so funny.
I miss her so much.
Today was a productive day. I had two skype dates with two amazing people, I made chicken tikka, and I booked our flights to Amsterdam. The madness begins March 10th.

My thoughts are with you all at home. You have no idea how much I wish I could be there for some of you. Myles, you’ll be missed and my memories of you will always be positive ones.
Rest in Paradise.
Gung Hay Fat Choy!
I worked for three hours this morning then took off the afternoon to revel in the Chinese New Year festivities. We headed to Trafalgar square in London to basically eat. First we watched some performances which involved dancing women and a man dressed up as a fat panda. It was pretty chaotic so we headed to Chinatown shortly after getting our entertainment fix. There we ran...
I think being Canadian is one of the best things my parents ever did for me.
Eric and I went out with some of my co workers last night and it was pretty fun. We played pool and I kicked Chissi’s butt at air hockey. I’m pretty sure I could play air hockey all day, every day. Most of them had to work this morning so they called it an early night so Eric and I met up with Joe and headed...
Boardwalk Empire Premiere. I’m ready to be impressed.
I talked to Sando last night and it looks like once I finally make it to Calgary I’ll be spending a week there then driving home with her and Kyle. STOKED.
