Calgary: Don't miss these auditions and concerts!


Okay- there are tons of exciting things going on in Calgary over the next couple of days, so I'm grouping them all together. That way it makes it harder for you to ignore them....right?

(Sorry in advance for all you non-Calgarians, but maybe you can pass these events on to people you know who live here. Because let's face it, we all know someone that lives here.)

I can see clearly now

One of the hardest decisions a mother has to make is whether or not to have another child. This is an issue I have struggled with for a long time, probably since my youngest, who is now two years old, was born.

Should I have a third child? Or not?

Being a parent is the greateset experiernce that life has to offer, and every single day, I count my blessings. My children amaze me. Every day, they say something, or do something, that melts me. I teach them, and at the same time, they teach me. Patience. Love. Understanding. Compassion.

The Great Canadian Song-Along

Written by Dan Arnott.

Most of us, whatever our relationship with music, have at some point in our lives heard a song and been struck by the genius of such lyrics as:

love is like a flame that burns you when it’s hot

or

pressed in love’s hot, fevered iron like a striped pair of pants.

That is to say, we thought we could write a better one.

Do you actually wear handknit socks?

Look Duncan, new sox!

I finished knitting a pair of socks yesterday, and then I broke them in by wearing them to the meeting with the employment counselor, which is about 5km from my place. 7,500 steps. 3,750 steps per sock.

Yeah, I watched the Oscars last night, along with a million Tweeps who were firing off the cutting comments. Even I joined in on dissing the dresses. (Was Charlize Theron wearing grape-flavoured Cinnabons on her chest?) It's a sexist thing to do, I admit. Was I thrilled that a woman, Kathryn Bigelow, was the first in 82 years to pick up Best Director and then, bonus, also Best Picture? Meh. Not really. That's because, as...

Go to the studio. Pack up gear. Load gear into my Ford Escape. Drive across town. Stop by Tim Hortons and grab a coffee. Drink coffee. Drive. Park. Exchange pleasantries with client. Client is also a friend, so it’s easy. Scout out house. Be nosy. Look for light. Look for cool spots. Look for warmth and comfort. Haul gear inside. Set up gear. Test my light. Refine my settings. Test some more. Okay, show time. Need a “model”. Oh, there’s a great model. Talk to model. Smile. Laugh. Be a goof. That’s easy. Look, the model’s eyes are smiling. She’s beautiful.
