Mind Your Own!
October has arrived... I feel it in the air after a very long and stubborn run of humidity and warmth that made many Canadians feel as if there was some sort of meteorological joke playing out among us. As we say, 'If you don't like the weather, just wait five minutes...'. Something is always coming down the pipe. And change and surprises are very much on my mind as I write this.

Unreliable
Alright, let me tell you a story, and I swear on my grandma’s cat’s life that every word of this is true… mostly. It all started one Wednesday morning. Or was it Thursday? Doesn’t matter. The important part is, I woke up in my apartment—my very well-organized, totally not messy apartment—and I was ready to conquer the day. Now, some people might say I overslept until noon and had cereal for lunch. But those people don’t understand my commitment to brunch. Also, who are they to judge what’s an appropriate meal? The milk was still good, and the cereal had a healthy number of marshmallows.
