I’ve been blogging at cooldry.tumblr.com because it’s simple and fun and supports post-by-email out of the box and there’s no spam comments for me to slog through. Join us! Tumblr aggregates my flickr photos and del.icio.us links and whatever else I throw at it.
Because I am a nomad.

I’m sitting here trying to subscribe to CBC podcasts with Banshee 1.0 (Hint: you can’t. You have to use Feedburner to create a new [valid] feed out of CBC’s cruddy [quasi-valid] feeds. My feed for All Of CBC Radio 3’s Podcasts is here.) and Sherry is watching the Canadian equivalent of the Dog Whisperer on [...]
We treated our bodies the way high school photography students treat photographic paper. We overexposed some parts and underexposed others and then we left them out before they had completely dried so they stuck together.
Any minute now Mr. Fell, arms mottled pink and hairless to the elbow from hand-dipping archive prints in vats of corrosive [...]
Cottage people fed us quiche and beer for breakfast and cradled our puppy in their laps and named her after a teevee lobster. In other news, my feet and most of my Sherry are glowing bright red.
The things that Ontario people call “cottages” are called “cabins” in many other parts of the country. As a [...]
Someone took a shit in the urinal in the men’s room at work. My coworker blames the deranged and I blame a four-year-old who’s never seen a urinal before.
Or the sky people.
My life is probably a lot less interesting now that I have a job I don’t hate. However, this hasn’t put a damper on the insurance industry’s enthusiasm for spamming my blog.
Here’s an odd thing about dog-ownership for you, though: I am, for the first time in my life, more interested in the excretions, secretions [...]

Four out of five neighbourhood kids agree, Cloverfield K. Metronome Surname is awesome enough for Facebook.
The miniature pinscher is an ancient breed, and theories about its origins are varied and colourful.
When I brought her home, Sherry was with her class on a trip to Stratford. I text messaged her the following: “Our puppy is made out of all the universe’s best ingredients.”
That was before she inhaled her dinner, then vomited [...]
Sherry’s mom has a chupacabra digging complex tunnels in her garden and yard killing her plants. It is building a city and preparing the way for our new alien masters, the sky people.
It may also be voles.
Either way, we’re going to leave a bunch of open tuna cans to attract a population of cat people. [...]

This is Clover. We met her yesterday in Orillia, and she’s coming home with us next week. She is a Miniature Pinscher, born March 17.
She is tiny and soft. She thinks my beard is interesting and tasty.
Sherry’s mother, who was initially blasé about the prospect of us getting a puppy, immediately took [...]
