The Plain truth about things Fancy. Wednesday, May 25, 2005. I should start a t-shirt slogan company, but who would buy shirts that read 'I survived a weekend with my family and all I got was this lousy t-shirt'? Well, gimme the t-shirt all the same! Well, yours truliest woke up at an ungodly hour on Wednesday morning to get to the airport to fly to.Yellowknife. I know, I know.you must be in shock and awe, but please try to contain your obvious envy. Gawd, it's good to be home. Or something. Well, Day 2 ...

Now What?: August 2005

The Plain truth about things Fancy. Wednesday, August 31, 2005. Today, in the aftermath of the Hurricane disaster of the Gulf Coast region, gas prices jumped at the jumps by as much as $0.25 a litre. Gas bought and paid for three or more weeks ago at a much lower price jumps ridiculously high, and we are asked to believe that it's the cause of Hurricane Katrina? Posted by Fancy C. Poitras @ 10:25 PM. Wednesday, August 17, 2005. Around the Kitchen Table. The whole point was this: How far would you go to s...

The Plain truth about things Fancy. Wednesday, December 28, 2011. Oopsie.I missed some things. Have I missed several major events worth blogging about in my absence? Yes Can I offer a valid explanation? Not really. Life just sort of got in the way for a while. How have you been? In between all of this stuff, the world has continued to shock, amaze, amuse, delight, terrify, and haunt me. In November, I went to Toronto to be trained as a Speaker/Ambassador for Dying with Dignity. So there is the quick (lon...

Now What?: Fancy needs a pick-me-up
http://fancysez.blogspot.com/2012/08/fancy-needs-pick-me-up.html
The Plain truth about things Fancy. Friday, August 31, 2012. Fancy needs a pick-me-up. But how do I do this without becoming a bloody Pollyanna, always playing her 'Glad Game'? While thinking of ways to improve my attitude, I was struck by the irony of being so focused on myself, and totally forgeting about trying to re-engage with the world. It's been all about me! Not about the world, with me in it. So, I came up with an idea. It's a simple idea: a project. A project is what I need! I should warn you, ...

http://fancysez.blogspot.com/2012/04/why-i-seriously-consider-quitting-my.html
The Plain truth about things Fancy. Tuesday, April 10, 2012. Why I seriously consider quitting my cushy federal public service job. Despite the news that letters are going out letting employees know they are affected (or, on the list of jobs to be cut, but the employee may find another job through a competition or some other process, and thus remain in the public service), I am 99% sure that I won't be among those receiving a letter. Why can I be that confident? I can't say yet that I am safe; I know tha...

The Plain truth about things Fancy. Wednesday, June 29, 2005. Progress on the Human front. Duh, I watch CPAC religiously. It's my ESPN or TSN. So, Canada moves one step closer to progress on the Human Front. Posted by Fancy C. Poitras @ 12:25 AM. Wednesday, June 22, 2005. Variety *used to be* the spice of life. Are you a greasy hamburger in a world full of tasteless vegetables? Do you just feel like the world is becoming one big uniform restaurant? The Olive Garden - used to have a dessert called Strawbe...

Now What?: February 2005

The Plain truth about things Fancy. Friday, February 25, 2005. The War on Terror. I'm talking about Maher Arar, the Canadian Poster Boy for bad investigating done in a hurry. There are others, but Mr. Arar stands out because of the blatant actions of all the governments involved. Mr. Arar knew a guy who knew a guy who was suspected of cooperation with a terrorist group. Probably know a guy who knows a guy.but I don't know this because I don't run background checks on my six degrees of separation. But it'...

Now What?: Sully Daniels
http://fancysez.blogspot.com/2012/09/sully-daniels.html
The Plain truth about things Fancy. Saturday, September 15, 2012. My Brother-in-law is allergic to cats, and he's a real dog lover, so it was a surprise, and yet it wasn't, when my sister told me they gave their oldest son, B. a golden lab for his birfday. They named him Sully (aka. Sul-Sul). That was more than nine years ago. Posted by Fancy C. Poitras @ 10:14 AM. Fancy C. Poitras. Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. A Work in Progress. View my complete profile.

Memoirs of a Fat Girl: September 2008
http://memoirsofafatgirl.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 15, 2008. Resurgence. For now, anyway. Starbucks The Way I See It #286. Hypocrisy is annoying, but not evil. Someone who says one thing and does another has doubled their chances of being half right. Penn Jillette, Magician. According to this, I’m annoying but not evil. I said one thing and did another, that is, I said I’d be back a long time ago. I didn’t do that. Instead, to sum it up as quickly as possible without turning this into a rant, it went more like this:. My father was sick.
