I Got My Hair Permed

Back at in September, I won a free "do-anything-you-want-with-your-hair" from a salon. Suggestions included a cut and dye, but I'm an actor and I prefer for my hair to remain its natural colour, so instead, in late October, I went and got a perm. I had never before dyed or permed my hair, and it … Continue reading I Got My Hair Permed

Spiders Aren’t That Bad

In the midst of our quarantine, a spider appeared. The minutes following will forever be known as the funniest ten minutes I've ever caught on video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3F2kKDS-fM

I Had My Heart Broken

I met him at a cat café. I'd only been to it a couple of times, usually not as long as I'd like. This time, however, I had the time. After I finished a sandwich and my tea, I washed my hands and went into the cat play area. There were a bunch of kittens … Continue reading I Had My Heart Broken

Calgary Stampede Vlog

The Calgary Stampede was cancelled this year due to covid-19 so I unearthed footage from the last time I went to the Stampede and edited it into a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X-t2XBDqSA

Staying Motivated in a Pandemic

Like many others, I've struggled to find the motivation to do any work deemed unnecessary while in quarantine. In the beginning, I sort of depended on the work left over from Super Roommates to get myself out of bed and feel productive. When that ran out, I started working on my novel, although that was … Continue reading Staying Motivated in a Pandemic

From the End

Things are precarious right now. I am writing this from the other end of a pandemic. Or maybe from the middle. Or even the beginning. I guess we'll see, won't we? For a while now (since this post, really) I've stayed mostly at home, cooped up with my family while we avoided the world. I'm … Continue reading From the End

Our Arena

Life is like the Hunger Games, except we don't know we're in the arena. We live in our little bubble, knowing it's shit but not knowing anything different. Every so often we reach the end, we hit the wall, we see a ripple of electricity across what should be sky, and we realize it's all … Continue reading Our Arena
