the great sea of blue jello

here she is in all of her glory. note the treasure chest. it has an x marking the spot on the other side.

and here is the shark attack victim.

priceless.

i only have one pic of the pirate team. (my co-worker's computer was giving her attitude and wouldn't let her send more than one at a time.)

it's a group shot and gives you a good idea of our costumes and just a wee glimpse of the glory of the good ship canker sore.

this is what winning looks like...


and as for this weekend, i went over to prem's last night for dinner and it was so good. his friend and his girlfriend came over for dinner. i got to watch grey's that prem had pvr'd for me and then i made the most kickass vegan chocolate pudding cake. really - i astounded even myself. this morning, i'm fighting a tickle in my throat and now have to organize the next 3 weeks of my life (groan) in order to get everything done. oh, xmas!

buuuutttt i think i'm going to go play outside and i'm going to pump some iron and craft away.
i'm also a little behind in posting since i still need some pics from last weekend's snowshoeing and pedicures from this week! my toes are so pretty!

it won't stop!

i wish wish wish that i had a camera so i could take one of those rare pictures of vancouver encased in snow.
it's been snowing for 2 days and shows no sign of stopping.
it's incredible.

in other big news, my brother won his moot court competition on thursday and i am so proud of him. and he did it for my grandad which is also amazing (no wonder he won).

and in less earth-shattering, but equally exciting news, my gingerbread team at work won the gingerbread competition. hands down, greatest gingerbread of all time - the gingerbread pirate ship, the "canker sore".
pics will be posted tomorrow (hopefully of snow as well).

and even more importantly, i'm home! i feel like i've been away for ages, and yesterday, had such a good hang out day at home. i did laundry, ran errands, went to the gym and totally pumped iron in the meat locker area, as opposed to the women's only gym and felt really powerful. then i walked home and tried to catch snowflakes on my tongue.

today - hopefully some snowshoeing and playing around in this white gold.
