Stress!!!

Posted by tigersluv on Mar 6, 2010 in Random, Vancouver, BC

I hate stress.  I hate not being able to just relax and do what I want to do.  I hate when I think of something to do, and have it all planned out – then something else enters the picture (beyond my control) and I have to alter plans, which then affects everything else.  I [...]

I Feel So Canadian

Posted by tigersluv on Feb 26, 2010 in Concerts, Dining Out, Vancouver, BC

Tonight Burton Cummings played the Victory Ceremony.  He rocked the house down.  It was such an amazing show.  When I think I first saw him 34 years ago – it’s unbelievable.  He made the comment that he has never felt “more Canadian” than he has in the last two weeks.  I agree with that.  I [...]

And the Sign Said…

Posted by tigersluv on Jan 28, 2010 in Canada eh, Musing, Random, Vancouver, BC

Olympics 2010 are almost here.  Tomorrow they are closing the last of the street access in my neighborhood.  Tonight was my last chance to go to Costco (which I can see from my house) but I was too lazy and too tired to go.  There’s nothing like working all day and being busy, then going [...]

B.C. Votes

Posted by tigersluv on May 5, 2009 in Government, Vancouver, BC

May 12 is election day here in B.C. It’s hard to know which way it will go. Gordon Campbell has lined so many pockets and made so many of his friends rich that the business sector loves him. His list of crimes against the province and against the environment are too numerous [...]

Bragging Again

Posted by tigersluv on Mar 27, 2009 in Music, Organization, Random, Travel, Vancouver, BC

Need I say more?

Ok, I’m bragging. I just feel an incredible fascination with the city right now. I’ve been here for 20 years, yet in some ways I feel like I’m seeing things for the first time. I have started looking at the world through my camera lens and it’s giving me [...]

Sweet Life

Posted by tigersluv on Mar 26, 2009 in Organization, Vancouver, BC

I found this picture and it reminded me why I choose to live where I do.

Looking at this picture you can see where I work and where I live.  (Ok where I live is actually not visible, but it’s just to the right of the big white dome).    You can see the seawall all along [...]

Taxation Gone Wild

Posted by tigersluv on Mar 13, 2009 in Government, Ranting, Vancouver, BC

As I sit here enjoying my “pre work” morning coffee I find my blood pressure rising (and not because I have to leave for work in half an hour).  The news announcers are all over the fact that the powers that be in Vancouver (Translink) want to increase all kinds of taxes on levies in [...]

Have I The Right?

Posted by tigersluv on Feb 23, 2009 in Random, Vancouver, BC

I was wondering what was wrong with our world.  There is a lot wrong I know, but it seems that we have gone mad.  Is reality tv ruining our grip on reality?  I was watching a marathon of my fave reality shows (The Bachelor, Survivor, Hell’s Kitchen, Project Runway) and I left feeling badly.  People [...]

I Love a Saturday

Posted by tigersluv on Feb 7, 2009 in Musing, Random, Vancouver, BC

I’m feeling trendy today.  I’m sitting here at Waves, writing my blog while drinking coffee.  I have never surfed with my laptop in a coffee shop.  I’ve surfed on my iPod Touch and I’ve surfed with my cel phone, but never with a laptop.  My friend is sitting across from me eating breakfast and surfing [...]

Customer Service Like No Other

Posted by tigersluv on Dec 13, 2008 in Ranting, TV Related, Vancouver, BC

My cable is down. I get the nice blue screen saying “channel will be available shortly” on all 200+ channels on my box. This has happened before and I had to reboot the box. So, I decided I would call Shaw (at 6am on a Saturday morning) to find out what the [...]
