Back when I was in Florida, I received a text from my friend, Sarah. The text was to inform me that, as soon as possible, I needed to check out a documentary called “Miss Representation“. We’re always sharing and recommending content we stumble upon that we think the other will appreciate, but there was something read more
Read, live better, repeat
January 19, 2012 – 5:04 pm
“That’s what alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.” Pretty great quote, eh? I thought that it was pretty fitting that I would stumble across it while I was reading, which is part of my New Years resolution to live better. Seeing read more
Winterless wonderland
January 11, 2012 – 1:17 pm
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m confused. The last time that I checked, it was January. January 11th, to be exact. It’s winter, or at least it’s supposed to be. But save for a few short-lived snow falls and cold dips over the holidays, this has been the least wintery winter in a read more
Tell me a story: A quiet celebration in the name of storytelling
January 5, 2012 – 2:12 pm
Back when I underwent Operation: Laser Eyes, I had been pre-warned by my wise Twitter followers to be prepared for what was sure to be a long and boring day of resting with my eyes closed. Knowing that I would be unable to read or watch TV, I decided to download some podcasts. My go-to read more
2012: The year of living better
December 30, 2011 – 2:33 pm
Ah, the holidays. That blissful week of festive limbo between Christmas and New Years. For me, I’d have to say that this week has been well spent, with plenty of time spent with family and friends. This has also been an appropriate time to reflect and recharge as I prepare myself for the year ahead. read more
Dear Diary: Making new Christmas memories (the hard way)
December 20, 2011 – 4:11 pm
I’m still having a hard time believing that Christmas is just a small handful of days away. I blame the vacation – coming back halfway through the season kind of threw me off my holiday game. I also blame the lack of snow. It was raining yesterday, people. There is nothing festive about rain! Still, read more
Walt Disney World: A vacation in review
December 16, 2011 – 11:53 am
Did you know that in 1931, Walt Disney had a nervous breakdown? He was only 30 and had already accomplished more than most of us do in a lifetime. Fun facts. To remedy his mental fatigue, Walt and his wife, Lillian took their first ever vacation together. When it was over, he returned eager and read more
Disney dreamin’ in 3
November 23, 2011 – 3:42 pm
Remember Lily, the Youtube darling that stole the hearts of Interweb-denizens everywhere a few weeks ago when her parents caught her reaction to a surprise trip to Disney Land on video? Well, right now I feel a bit like Lily. Except that I’m going to Disney World instead. Also, it’s not a surprise and, thus read more
HealthAchieve and the Fantastic Mr. Fox (or, On finding passion when you least expect it)
November 11, 2011 – 12:41 am
Earlier this week I got to attend the 2011 OHA HealthAchieve conference in Toronto. I went because of my job and mainly for the purposes of sharing the work we’ve been doing with social media. Being the PR nerd that I am, I got right into all of the prep before hand – building conference read more
Operation: Laser Eyes, Part 1
October 25, 2011 – 12:27 pm
I find it kind of funny that I still have nights where I stand in front of the bathroom mirror before bed, trying to figure out what I’ve missed in my nighttime routine. I still do a double take when I realize that I can read street signs, the time on the clock, or a read more
