December 27, 2009

Tonight I am thinking about the idea of redefining… things… self… whatever… In thinking about redefinition I find myself needing to consider the present definitions.  Maybe that’s the problem.  What is the definition of Donna?  ’Things’ around me are being defined and redefined all the time and, except for my initial reactions to the uncomfortableness [...]

Here I am tonight.

September 5, 2009

The truth is that it can be quite difficult to blog after a lengthy absence.  There are decisions to be made.  Do I blog as though no time has elapsed or attempt to explain the blogging hiatus?  Do I try to say something profound or timely or is it most important to just say something…. [...]

Seeing Pain

May 16, 2009

I am feeling pain right now without a doubt.  I’m over-tired and I physically hurt.  But somehow in the last few days I’ve been snapped out of my unfortunate self-absorbed streak to actually see a broader view of the pain all around me.  And then I felt that pain too.

Snow and Bad Shows

April 7, 2009

It’s the start of April and in southern Ontario, and many other locations in the eastern part of North America, we’re getting snow.  Some people talk like this is a strange thing.  But it’s not really.  It’s just an unwanted thing.  It isn’t uncommon to see snow for a few days in April and even [...]

Silly Songs, Sore Muscles, and Sudden Sleepiness

March 29, 2009

Hmm, thinking about doing a “Silly Songs with Donna” segment on the olivepeopleonline.com website… and/or Facebook.  More on that another time… that was just me thinking out loud. Another weekend has come and gone.  I’m so busy on my weekends lately (or should be… had to cancel a few recent sets of weekend plans due [...]

The Compri-Combo

March 26, 2009

Today I split a combo with a friend for lunch.  There is an excellent poutine place in downtown Guelph called Pierre’s Poutine.  They sell burgers, hot dogs, etc. as well as their amazing poutine.  They offer a combo deal with the choice to upgrade to a poutine, instead of fries.  So, my pal and I [...]
