David Bowie's Crotch

So I've joined an ulti team for the summer and our team name happens to be David Bowie's Crotch.. thats right.. David Bowie's Crotch..

So I asked myself.. "Why would we choose such a name?", yet I came up with no answers... I tried to find a witty/clever/ironic meaning from the phrase, yet to no avail. I then quized my team for answers.. they directed me to this webpage David Bowie's Area.

Apparentl
y his crotch is featured prominently in the movie 'Labyrinth' and well.. some people seem to have this theory that his crotch is all-encompassing... After reading the basics, I am still skeptical, however I now sorta get what my team was going for..

I still don't want a crotch on my team shirt...

Wooooo!

So completely done school for the semester... Woooooooooooooooo! Hopefully now there will be more regular postings here! Right now my marks are looking good.. although I've only gotten 2 back.. but I feel confident about the other ones...

But I still havent had a chance to breath since I was done... today I ran around all day for fashion show fittings and rehearsals and it was all downtown. I had this brilliant idea that I would park across Albert so that I wouldn't have to pay for parking... but that just ment I did so much walking.. I didn't think it would be that bad, but I was wrong! Since the weather was so nice I was working up a sweat :P.. and then I would show up all sweaty at the designers places.. ew.. not to mention embarrasing...I also made the mistake of wearing heels (not high ones mind you) but they still were killer while doing so much walking

Another exciting thing though, I have an audition for a Saskatchewan Roughrider commercial! I am really pumped for that. It would be so cool to be in.. and I can't complain about the money either :P.. cross your fingers for me!

Then off to work for Dr. Yost on May 1.... here's hoping thats good...

My front window is deadly!


Thats right.. there have been 2 bird deaths in the past couple of weeks due to the front window of my house! It is not uncommon around my house, but usually doesn't happen so frequently. I hear a thunk and when I go to check, I see a stunned bird laying in the flowerbed. Usually its moving and seem to be fine and when I go to check on it later, it has flown away (or was eaten by the roaming neighbourhood cats :P). The one in question, hit the front window yesterday, however, I thought had managed to live since when I checked back, he was gone. Turns out he had managed to flop himself underneath the fir tree (so I couldn't see him) and my dad found him when he was mowing just now :(

Did ya ever wonder....?

When I finish spellcheck/grammar check in word, it pops up with my Flesch Reading Ease and Flesch–Kincaid Grade Level (along with all the readability stats) but I never knew what it ment.. until now. Despite not knowing what they ment, I still looked at them and rejoiced when my paper had Grade level of 12... now it actually means something to me! Check it out --> wikipedia article
