Valentines Day

Isn't this a great video? My internet pal Alexander created it for his Valentine. I nearly jumped out of my seat when I watched it. Good work Alex, and LUCKY GIRL Allie! Make sure you go to his blog and let him know what you thought.

Kyle and I celebrated Valentines day yesterday at Noir Wine Bar+Eatery. Today Kyle is leaving on a jet plane for Toronto and Montreal during reading week, thus we had to celebrate a day early. I wrote a greeting into a card and got him a fun little novel called 'Gullboy' as it was the furthest genre from stuffy law books I could find.

Kyle got me a 'CBC radio: radio through the years' calendar that has fun facts about the history and current hosts of the CBC. He knows me too well. I'm such a geek! I could name over 9 of the 11 hosts on the cover!

In the past I didn't give two hoots about Valentines day and would join my other, more bitter friends in their scorn of this day. But now I am dating somebody, you can all jump off the bridge without me. Valentines day is da bomb!

Prepares for an internet lashing...

Impromptu Date

On Wednesday I was drawn to the outdoors by the beautiful Manitoba blue skies shining above the university. Kyle and I were going to spend part of the afternoon together after he finished classes, and was excited when I mentioned a skating date! As per tradition, I enjoyed a hot dog after an adventurous glide across the Red River with my boy.

There is no explanation for the spate of skating videos of late. I'm having a lot of fun though, and am considering investing in a pair of skates for myself!

Birthday of Catan

I had a great birthday party with my friends. We played Settlers of Catan, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite board games. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect party!
