My Internet doppelgänger just bought 4 star wars costumes. I now have her street address & phone number. I think I might send her a letter. #
After 4 more emails abt the Star Wars costumes I emailed them back telling them I wasn't the Gwen Floyd they were looking for. #

Playing loud based music after midnight on a Sunday sucks people. #justsaying #getoffmylawn #
who do I call to get a neighbours party stopped? I tried the doorbell but they are so fucking stoned they can't hear. #
I think I'll try some bagpipe music at 6 am to play for the neighbours. It is fair right? I am not getting any sleep & my kids are up at 6. #
police non emergency line called. I hate to be that person, but they wouldn't answer the door. #bassstillgoing #
Finally another lull in the music. Please goddess make it be the end of the party. Anthony works in the morning and Q gets up about 6. #

Good thing I booked piano @dunbar because Getting home after dropping off Aidan at school, all the spots@Kerrisdale are full. @anthonyfloyd #
Another internet registration fail. Quinlan is too young according to the computer to take the ballet class his teacher wants him in. #
At least I could pay to upgrade my teaching status, wait, that was the legislation that took away non-practising status. #
Me too! RT @JessieRelephant: Tomorrow night is Blogger Night at work. Very excited to meet tweeps in person. #
This never happens . . . http://t.co/LoLYYpeh #
Amazingly enough Quinlan is still asleep after I moved him from the stroller. Was expecting him to be awake now. #mustbesickerthanIthought #

I hate that facebook contests always want you to allow them to post things on you behalf. I don't let anyone post as me but me. #
Even if the company says that they won't post as you on facebook contests, giving them permission means they can. I don't like it @westjet #
Looking forward to some time with my girlfriends. @tjrossignol please to dm address #
On our way to @CarouselTheatre for blogger night. Aidan is excited. #CTOz #
The wizard of oz is as good the 2nd time. #CTOz aidan loves it a little too loudly. #
The cast of the Wizard of Oz from @CarouselTheatre are the best. They made every kid happy & answered their questions. #

I was just nearly creamed because some asshole thought a nearly pty parking lot meant they could scream through the spaces. I used the road. #
Almost time for @carouseltheatre 's Wizard of Oz @ Waterfront Theatre http://t.co/Y8p24SNk #
Aidan, once in pjs, passed out in < 5 min. On the way home, "I'm sad I only get to see Oz 1 more time." Good review coming @carouseltheatre #
If you haven't got your tickets for @carouseltheatre 's Wizard of Oz, get them now before they sell out. Fabulous, fantastic and funny! #
