Please remind me to never buy ice cream during menses again.

so embarrassed.

if you happened to be held up in the varsity view area last night by some emergency vehicles rushing to a supposed fire, i apologize. i heated up my stir-fry pan a little too much and set off the smoke detector. the smoke detector is linked into the alarm system and little did i know, an alarm system does not only need to be disarmed you also need to talk to the alarm system dispatcher to avoid having fire-fighters show up at your house. a mere ten minutes after setting off the alarm, my little apartment was surrounded by some of saskatoon's finest and a few moments later i had some of them in full gear rampaging my apartment with axes in their arms. i have never been so mortified as when i was explaining that i #1 set off the alarm while cooking then #2 didn't know how to properly disengage my alarm system. luckily they laughed and told me they were just happy i was okay. actually, i even got a playful punch in the arm from one of them. so here's to knowing i am well protected, even when i am in no real danger.

So proud!

My friend Tonya's research on 'Big things on the side of the road' was featured in the National Post. Way to go girl!
