The beaver is a proud and noble animal
Notes from a bemused canuck
I went to fax something and I was looking all over for a pen to fill out a cover sheet. I was starting to get annoyed, cause I'd been scrounging for a pen all over the fax room for 5 minutes, until I realized that I had one just behind my ear. I used to do that all the time when I was a grad student…
For your viewing pleasure, I have posted the pictures from our walkabout to the botanical garden on my website. The full page is here. Here are some samples:

Also, since there seems to be a demand for cute kitty pictures, I give you Boris in all his splendor:

Spent a lovely evening with the Katygirl. We cooked too much food (hmmm, bisto!) and ate ice-cream profiteroles slathered in melted chocolate. Katy got me a board game and the DVD of Mary Poppins (hence the Chim-Chim-Chimny theme of this post). I got her a silver bracelet† and two cute valentine cards I saw at Chapters. It was a lovely evening, and I get to end it sleeping next to the woman I love. There's nothing else to say, really.
† It's pissing me off to no extent that it's just a *bit* too small :( I'm going to pop by the shop tomorrow to see if they can add a link in it to make it less snug. She genuinely loves it, which is good, but I still feel bad that it's too small, poo. If they can't add a link, I'll take it to my silversmith to have it worked on.
