Thursday Throwdown: March 16
I meant to post this last week for Women’s Day, but I realized today that I never did that. HA! So here it is now, because it’s a pretty good one. Rock out, friends!

When I was in high school and university, I would periodically move all my furniture out in the hallway or shove it around my room to different walls. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not so much. Every single time, though, I was procrastinating doing something else. And moving all your worldly possessions was a doozie of […]
I was just thinking to myself, “Self, we should do a Grati-Tuesday”. And then I realized that not only was I superduper late for Grati-Tuesday, I was also late for Thursday Throwdown (this being almost 2am on Friday, and all). Oopsie. The beginning of this week was the Family Day statutory holiday for me, so […]
I don’t shop at Walmart – I haven’t been inside a Walmart in over a decade. I’m someone who much to the exasperation (sometimes) of my family, votes with my money. I know exactly when I decided to never be a Walmart shopper again – it was in 2012 after a fire ripped through a […]

I have to tell you, I’m not much of an awards show watcher, but last weekend was the Grammy Awards, and there was a performance that has conservatives frothing at the mouth. As soon as I hear that something is controversial I want to read it, see it or watch it. The Sam Smith/Kim Petras […]
My phone just gave me an alert that there’s supposed to be a dump of snow and “the coldest temperatures so far this winter”. Great. So what I’m hearing is that little extra Dance Floor is prudent. You heard that too, right?
So this morning, I said to myself, “Self, we should get a throwdown playlist together so it’s ready to go on Thursday”. Except that today is Thursday – It’s been that kind of week. I mean, I know why – I had a day off on Tuesday for an impromptu trip out of town, and […]
