At work, the lady in charge of the cleaning of the office is deaf. I have a base in sign language, so I understand her pretty well, but sometimes, stories get a bit mixed up. Last night she told me a story that was almost unbelievable and I truly thought our conversation was just beyond…… Continue reading Thank you Life, for Stupid…
I went out during my break, and found a tree to try to talk to. Not “this” tree, which still has its roots in Denmark (as mentionned in my last post), but a Montréal tree, because they are a lot more common here. I discovered two facts; Fact #1: Trees don’t talk – They…… Continue reading Secret keeper… update.
Daniel Bélanger… Why Daniel? Because he is one of the best singers/song writers to emerge these last 25 years. Because every song he comes up with is good. Because he is one of the best showmen I have seen on a stage, singing and playing beautifully, then talking for long moments, to connect with…… Continue reading Cyranny’s Jukebox…
Spending the evening at the office… Again, I know. Eating cannelloni for my 4th meal in a row, and I wanted to treat myself. So I went to the vending machines downstairs, and got my change purse (is it really what it is called??) to feed the soft drink machine with my Canadian tokens!…… Continue reading Cats, butts and a handful of change…
We had to ride out of town today… Out of Montréal and to Trois-Rivières, for family business. Which is why I’ve been quiet today, and will most certainly be tomorrow. But you have to agree, it is a great road to follow…
I don’t have the most inviting lips ever, when it comes to kissing and that sort of business, but other than in very, very rare cases, I have naturally very smooth lips. It might come from not over using them, or not using chemical gloss and lipstick to cover them that often (aka almost never)……… Continue reading Dry lips in Denmark…
Second visit to the Nodic Film Festival last night… But before heading to the cinema, we made a stop at Nyks, a little bistro-pub on the corner of Ste-Catherine and Bleury streets. A nice place to have a bite, though a little bit loud to my liking. I had a bowl of squash cream and…… Continue reading Armi alive! (Armi elää!)…
This week, in Montréal, Cinéma Tapis Rouge (an organisation encouraging cinematografic exchanges) is presenting a short Nordic Film Festival. Yeah… Nordic, as in Scandinavian, as in Denmark baby!! There are only a few movies presented this year, but it only makes choices easier to make! Yesterday, chéri and I left home around 10 pm to attend our…… Continue reading Huset… (The House)
You’d think that after a 10 hours long shift, all I’d be in for would be to hop in my pjs, wrap myself in my favorite blanket and watch my favorite Monday tv shows… But you know how it goes… You’re ready to take it easy, and a good friend calls in, and offers an…… Continue reading Walking in San Francisco…
Yesterday, my traveling feet received some unexpected visit… We were up for a girls’ day out downtown, and although we don’t need to have a good reason to spend time together, it called for a celebration. First of all, it was my very very best friend’s 38th birthday last Friday. That alone was…… Continue reading If you came to Montréal… (6)
