Snow!

This is my first day on air in Charlottetown on a snowy day. It hasn't been that bad as far as volume of phone calls due to it being a holiday. I did have one drunk guy swearing at me because I wasn't the normal morning guy and why should the morning guy get holidays when he's so lazy? I told him to have a nice day and hung up. The snow this morning in downtown Charlottetown looked pretty on the trees that were lit up.

Now it's raining and slushy and not so pretty. Oh well. I have good boots. Last night I went for a really long walk, it was actually warm out. I didn't sleep well though. Having bad dreams that involved cockroaches. The bf says I have been watching too much Billy the Exterminator. I did learn from Billy that mascara is made with bat crap. Yes bat crap that has been processed but it's still bat crap. Going to do some shopping today at the sales, and supper is already made (leftover turkey) so it should be a good quiet night!

Boxing Day

The streets of Charlottetown are bare this morning. Except for this guy who got pulled over right in front of the K-ROCK studios. lol. I feel exceptionally happy today, very grateful for family and good friends who make my life so good. I look at some of the people who walk the streets of Charlottetown who have next to nothing, and I realize I am so fortunate.

Christmas on the Beach in Cavendish

The waves were bigger than me! It was breathtaking and made me feel very, very small.

ParisFrances Gets Stoned for the First Time

Last night for Christmas Eve, we went for a walk and just enjoyed other peoples Christmas lights.

Much like the Miley Cyrus Salvia bong video, I am sure that this too will be a viral video soon. ParisFrances has been given catnip before but this was the first time it had any affect/effect?(which one) on her.

Anyways, after opening my stocking which contained chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate, lottery tickets and travel magazines..the cat was given her "stuff" and she went nuts and has been sleeping ever since.

I got some rock and roll books, Cherie Currie's biography, Joan Jett's biography, and not rock star, but still equally as cool, Russell Brands Booky Wook II. I also got lovely gift certificates for Boxing Day shopping (which by the way in PEI is not on Boxing Day it's the day after because of the no Sunday shopping rule) I also got a beautiful, beautiful robe.

We are just about to depart for a walk in the snow on the Cavendish Beach. First time walking on the beach of the ocean on Christmas Day. Full turkey dinner after that.

Food&Warmth

Last night I attended the 6th Annual Food and Warmth show, it is a fundraiser for the soup kitchen and foodbank. Great show, a lot of local bands put on this benefit concert and it was 3 1/2 hours of good music. My favourites..... Megan Blanchard.

Molly Rankin. Yes, of the Rankin's of Cape Breton. She is amazing. Milks&Rectangles. Wierd band name. Awesome singer, there sound is very late 70's British punk mixed with early 80's British rock. So needless to say, after being at concert until the LATE hour of 11:30, jeez I am getting old, but I did work all day...anyways I am pooped.

So it's Christmas Eve, I'm at work, and I am enjoying the quiet. Going to have pizza tonight. Also going to watch Bad Santa. Tomorrow morning I am up early to put weather on the station, and then it's home to open gifts. Also planning on spending Christmas day with a walk on the beach. I've never been on the beach of the ocean on Christmas Day! Another first. Merry Christmas.

Visiting Olivia & Mittentime 2010

This is Olivia and I in the Athens restaurant in Halifax. Olivia is my former co-op student from Simcoe, and she is doing so well travelling Canada with the group Katimivick. So Olivia and I went out and ate way too much at the great Greek restaurant Athens, and then we went and sat in Starbucks and had hot chocolate. Well I had hot chocolate, Olivia had chai tea.

Last night I went to see "Mittentime 2010" A bunch of Maritime artists

Tanya Davis, Brooke Miller, Catherine MacLellan, Daniel Ledwell, Jenn Grant, Kinley Dowling, Patrick Ledwell & Rose Cousins all performed. Patrick Ledwell the stan up comedian had everyone roaring with laughter, he is so funny.

Tonight, it is the 6th annual Food and Warmth Show. It is to support the Upper Room with food donations and clothing. I'll tell you more about that tomorrow. Hopefully!

ParisFrances has super strong catnip as a gift, and all she does is get a whiff of it and she acts insane...so get ready for a video of crazed cat on catnip Christmas day.

Christmas Stuff

I've been really busy (I know I know, along with everyone else) Was sad to hear Mrs. High passed away yesterday. She was a wonderful mother to her three girls, and I know Julie will be devestated.

With half of my staff taking off home for Christmas, I'll be working my butt off until the end of the year. Luckily, I will be spending a lot of time in studio, so that means I will take some photos on time off and get writing on here.
