I love horror books; I'd rather read psychological terrors. Unless it's about a demon/possession/exorcism, which absolutely terrifies me. I blame that on a leftover of being a Christian.

This or that: would you rather read about physical or psychological terrors? If you dislike horror, choose between internal or external conflicts.

Everything is due today and everything is in a state of "waiting until client responds to an email" and so no I'm in no way stressed.

Toronto business bets on Canadian nostalgia

When Steve Gaskin launched the Toronto-based business Retrokid in his garage during the COVID-19 pandemic, he put his faith in one thing: Canadian nostalgia.

In grade school me and my girlfriends would bother the teachers on yard duty at recess by quizzing them about whether they knew what Klingons were. None of them did, but my friends and I were obsessed.

In grade 7, back in 1973, my girlfriends and I made and sold tribbles in the schoolyard playground.

How big are you talking about? I've made corporate sites on Squarespace before... but mostly I stick with WP for larger sites.

Watching Misery for the first time ever and dude, Matthew Cuthbert is really throwing me here. I expect warm and fuzzy Anne-ness from him, not to see him in the middle of a horror movie.

So apparently one of the guys from Hacksmith Industries was curling two sheets over from me tonight. The guys were geeking out.

Am I jinxing myself by adding "FINAL PROOF" to a filename before I send it off to a client? Probably. Am I going to do it anyway? Absolutely.

The last several years have been challenging; for many, this period has taken a toll on their mental health. Anyone - young or old - can struggle with #mentalillness.

Check in with yourself and seek support if you need it because #MentalHealthIsHealth.

I really wish I bought this instead of borrowing it from the library because there's so much I want to underline/highlight.

Starting Jennifer Jones's memoir, and I know it's going to be a good read because it made me tear up in the first 5 pages. Gosh, I miss watching her on the ice.

Dracula, without a question. Don't care whether it's the original, or a reimagining of the character like in Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian. Best vampire. Without a doubt.

There's been construction on my street for months now. Fine, bit of an inconvenience, but it'll be better in the long run. Today, however, the trucks are SQUEAKING like fingernails on chalkboard and I'm going a little crazy.
