Now I know I have several people who read my blog either religiously (like Donna's Mom who checks everyday for updates), regularly (various friends like Joe, Luke, and Chamyli, and various family members like my Mom), or infrequently (my brother thinks this is a colossal waste of time). However, I had no idea that other people might actually read my rantings and ravings. Now a couple of people have posted comments in the comments section who I don't know, but one of them was in Spanish and I don't speak Spanish, and the other one made very little sense at all (I think he thought he new me but actually didn't). Thanks to Nick I know this isn't true. Nick read my blog from the beginning and thinks it's OK.
Actually while I am sitting here writing this I just realized who Nick is. Oh well, my readership grows by one anyways. (Not sure why I write Stay Frosty at the end. I guess I feel I needed a tag-line and I guess it kinda refers to what I should do - stay calm - when something blog worthy happens. Usually it is something that has irritated me and I get angry or frustrated instead of staying relaxed).
The main reason I blog today is actually to get some pictures up. Here they are, in no particular order.
Ikea shopping is one of those things that is so good and so bad... all at the same time. The couch was on sale though for only $150.00 this was for Donna's Apartment... which we don't even need anymore, but more on that later.
The problem with Ikea shopping, is that it aways results in Ikea assembly.
This was my Thanksgiving masterpiece, before it went into the oven.
Here is me with the turkey post cooking. I actually still have a scar on my arm from the element. Apparently, basting your turkey while it is still deep in the oven is not such a good idea. The smell of burning human flesh s not as good as the smell of roasting turkey flesh.
Our Thanksgiving guests: You all know Donna (not really a guest), Jason, Mike, Hudson, and April. Plus food enough for 20 people... I may have gone a little overboard.
I think Hudson didn't get enough to eat at dinner.
Donna and I went for a walk at the Little Cataraqui Creek Conservation Area.
We tried to get through the entire trail, but ended-up having to turn back when the trail was flooded out. I offered to carry Donna across, but she didn't think much of my chivalrous proposition.
Sweet line-out picture taken at St. Catherine's, playing Brock University. Queen's wins of course, 32-3 I think...
This picture was taken at the OUA Final at Fletcher's Fields, as are the next few pictures. Donna took this one of a distraught Western player after Queen's had just scored. I love this picture.
It's a little far away, but this is the last play of the game. Queen's defended for 13 phases, all within our 5m line. Pictured here is the final ruck, which lasted 23 seconds before A. Clarke stole the ball.
The winning, undefeated Queen's Rugby team. I am on the left of the guy in the orange toque.
All the Queen's RFC players, from all grades, who made the trip down to watch the game and support the players. Thanks everybody.
Donna said the game was the best one she has ever been too. I would be hard pressed to argue with her.
These are the pumpkins I carved for Halloween. The problem was I couldn't find any large pumpkins on the 31st... whether they were sold out or what. So I carved 3 small ones.
Stay Frosty.

Mike, Mike, Mike - How long have we known each otherÉÉÉÉ (My computer has started doing that symbol for question marks)I know you have accomplished what lots of people cant. You actually can pronounce my name, but I realized today that you can not spell it. I was so excited to be mentioned in such a widely read blog, but then I realized nobody would know it was me you were talking about. Hhmmphhhh!
OK Chamyli, I just went back and changed the spelling. My bad.
