I'm not much of a blogging person. But I got some words to throw out.

On Wednesday evening I arrived at the rural town I grew up in, where my parents still reside. I admit though, I didn't travel 230km to see them, exactly, I came over to this boring patch of the universe to visit my cat, Stimpy. He was a present for my seventh birthday in 1996, taken away from his siblings as a little bastard feral thing from my Grandpa's farm, and over the past thirteen years has grown into quite...

In The Land of Seagulls and Gingham

I haven't had a lot of contact with the Mormon Church, or as they call themselves, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Sure, I remember Donny and Marie from their seventies variety show. I knew one of them was a little bit country and the other one was a little bit rock and roll and together they were nothing less than horrifying as they created the musical equivalent...

So I've started looking for summer work in the UK/Ireland. I'm a drama teacher by trade and would love to do that, rather than teach English (which I'm qualified / certified to do but don't love). It's a daunting search but exciting too. For example, I just found a camp in Ireland for kids with cancer and other serious illnesses. How COOL would that be???

If anyone has any leads or recommendations or has done anything like this before, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm...

OK I searched and didn't find an answer in either U2.com FAQs or Interference.

I'm trying to use my 25% discount coupon for U2.com before it expires. I tried to use it to renew, nothing except, "not applicable for this code - renewal bundle". I tried to use it to purchase new Unforgettable Fire cd/dvd package. Nope, it's handled through Amazon and it does not recognize the code. Tried to order a t-shirt, "sorry - updating inventory". Could being an economical U2...

Ive felt so many strange things since the aftermath of what happened. It's a foreign thing to me and I don't like it. I usually bounce right back from things and I've been through many things.. but I keep getting strange moods that come in waves. I get moments where I actually feel low That's not me at all. I'm sleeping through the night now, but I still have dreams about it. In one, he was standing on the other side of the front door, staring at me. He couldn't get in, but he wouldn't go...

I posted this in B&C as well, but I'm hoping I can get this out to as many people as possible:


Hey guys, I'm just wondering if I could get some help from you all. I'm in an audience research class this semester, and our big final project revolves around our group successfully implementing a research study of some kind. We're trying to get around 200 responses, and so far we're on track with Facebook alone, but I told them I knew somewhere I could pick up some more help. If...

I'm a huge baseball fan. My favorite team is the New York Yankees. I've been a big fan since I was 5 years old. This morning I awakened to the fact that the Yanks are up 3 games to 1 in the World Series over the Philadelphia Phillies. One more win and the Yanks will be the champs for the first time since 2000. Now, I know that 9 years isn't too long of a time between championships. The Chicago Cubs haven't won a World Series since 1908 and the Boston Red Sox had their famous 86 year drought until...

Here's a flow chart to help you out!

This is just a little personal, but I was assaulted and almost raped tonight by a guy who followed me into the lobby of my new building. I always try to be aware of my surroundings, but this just shows that you can never be too careful.

I was just driven home by the police and am in shock. Don't know what else to say. Please be careful.

No? Damn.



I am going to Toronto to see U2 on July 3rd!!! I'm thrilled to be seeing the band play. But I'm even happier about the fact that after what will be 5 years in July, I will finally meet a few interferencers who I consider to be some of the best friends I ever had. After 5 years of e-hugs, I'm going to finally get to give them real hugs. This is the main reason for my trip. U2 is just an excuse to see my girls.

Two tix for TO, a section closer than I was in September. Near panic as my internet connection went dead two minutes into the queue. Had to reboot entire wireless setup. 7-9 minute wait. Most stressful presale yet, just cuz I forgot to empty my cache and my connection tray went dead.

I asked my 11 yr. old daughter this morning if she'd like to see U2. "Mom, will it be cold?" "No, it'll be in July." "Can we please go????!!!!!!" So much better than the...

Yesterday was Nick and my one year anniversary. I had to work the morning, we started early (6am ) so we were done by 2pm. It was raining buckets. At the end of my shift, my boyfriend was waiting outside in the car. As I got closer, I saw something on the front seat. Flowers. I and showed them off briefly to one of my co-workers and got in the car. We were to go to supper later, but first we went home and took a much needed nap.

We went to supper at Boston Pizza (and it was...

Before we moved into this house, we lived in a townhouse end unit. There were a few cool people in that neighborhood, but our immediate neighbors were rather odd, and they had these really annoying dogs, one of which bit at my thigh one day. After showing him that humans can bite back (i.e. hammerfist to top of skull) he gave me a wide berth, but he still harassed our visitors and other people walking by.

In addition to the "dog neighbor", we were constantly plagued by...
