That Ache

I love that "I haven't worked out in two weeks and my body is killing me after doing weights last night" ache. So much as it limits my mobility, it really means my body was working. Mmmouch.

Sprinkles, please

Usually an "Old Fashioned Plain" girl, today I opted for a sprinkle doughnut.

It was a good choice.

Desk oatmeal

Five minutes of warm, sweet, cinnamonny desk oatmeal.

The Byward Market

I went to the Byward Market in Ottawa this weekend and had a fantastic time! There is something special about the Byward Market...it's not as bohemian or pretentious as Kensington, not as crowded as St. Lawrence and much more 'homey' than the Queen Victoria in Melbourne. It was a beautiful, sunny day, and I was able to snap a picture of these cute little painted pumpkins.

Schadenfreude

There's this huge pimp-looking guy that rides a stupid electric bike to work each morning. It's dumb. It's half motorcycle, half scooter...it's just ridiculous. He always cuts me off and never signals. He rarely obeys the rules of the road. It's very frustrating.

Today, he decided that instead of riding on the road, he was going to ride on the sidewalk. Keep in mind that this guy was probably going at least around 20km/hr - this is dangerous to have on the sidewalk!

About a minute into his ride, a police officer popped out from around the corner of the building and stopped this guy. I didn't see what happened, but this guy totally got his ass handed to him and I hope -HOPE- he got a ticket. Stupid guy.

Schadenfreude really makes me smile sometimes.
