Back from the dead, and prettier than ever!

I have been extremely remiss in my blogging. I am a bad blogger. There has been a notable absence of blogging since March of 2007. MARCH 2007! Not that I think anyone needs reminding, but it’s almost MAY 2008. I really am a bad blogger. I suck big piles of turd. Please don’t hate me, please? Welcome me back with open arms. Hugs all around.

Here is a quick 1 year and 2 months update:
1) I bought a house. Actually, I bought an end unit of a tri-plex. What I now realize is that I paid an exorbitant amount of money to live in my crappy neighbour’s dog’s many piles of shit. I only wish that I could have avoided sinking myself into 40 straight years of hard-labouring debt before having this realization. My kingdom for fresh-smelling air and a dog-shit free backyard. Preferably a backyard that isn’t a minefield of surprises!
2) I discovered the pure genius of Battlestar Galactica. And the extraordinary power of the word “frak”.
3) Darcy and I set a date for our wedding. I’d feel much more secure in this fact if only battlestar galactica wasn’t such an inspiring factor in our wedding plans. Instead I mostly feel really nerdy.
4) Azure turned 6, Arion just turned 3, Nate turned 1, Allan was born, and I will be a 5-times auntie sometime in July. My brother got a dog named sushi which could be considered a nephew/niece substitute so perhaps I am a soon-to-be 6X auntie. Regardless, Auntie Lola reigns supreme.
5) I discovered beat union. And all was right in the world.

Here is a quick list of things that did not change during the 1 year and 2 months I was away:
1) I am still lame. But I am working hard to change that, I swear.
