One of the best things to happen to me this year was Corey Fischer asking me to be his podcast-partner. I jumped at the chance and haven't looked back since.
He takes the podcast to a new level with his animations - he hears a little funny bit and creates a whole world to go along with it. Pretty impressive, no?
This week he released another, and I think it's pretty fantastic - largely because he does such a good job of recreating my misadventures as a youth.
Here, for your viewing (and laughing) pleasure,

WTF ...
was I thinking? Booking a last minute trip to Europe?! This is not me. I'm usually so researched and prepared for adventures.
I leave on Friday and I am neither.
Who JUST found a place to sleep in Amsterdam? This girl. I'm also a little stressed about the language barrier. For both Italy & France I was listening to language podcasts weeks before. This time, there were no weeks before.

AND to be super adventurous (read: slightly stupid) I've arranged for a couple of dates in each city. Thanks OkCupid!
So, play nice Berlin, Amsterdam and maybe Bruges, I just don't want to cry.

Ch-ch-ch-changes
Changes are afoot.
For the first time in four years, I will have a new job. It's a weird, scary thought - meeting new people, trying to win them over, learning new systems and processes, not having the comforts of the job that I've loved for so many years.
Yikes.
But at the end of the day, change is supposed to be good for the soul - or something like that.
Right?! RIGHT?!?
New job starts September 6, and before I begin, I'm running away. Amsterdam & Berlin, here I come!
I'm excited. I'm nervous. I'm all atwitter. Hopefully I don't ruin everything.
REPEAT: Change is good. Change is good. Change is good.

Thank you, gay men
There's a frustrating reality for this single, straight woman: gay men.
This weekend is Pride in Vancouver, a celebration of all things GLBTQ2 and fabulous! Finely sculpted men are running around Vancouver without shirts and it's a total tease. Straight men don't look like that, and if they do, they don't talk to me.
In fact, the most frustrating thing about gay men is that they are the only people with penises who tell me I'm pretty, funny and have nice hair.
Breeder men never tell me that shit, and if they do, they're drunk.
So this is my thanks to boys who like boys - thanks for the compliments and calling me the next day. Can you teach those straight fellows a thing or two? Please?
