Dec. 6 @ 3 pm - 20th anniversary of Montreal Massacre (Candle Light Vigil: Peterborough) http://anndouglas.typepad.com/one_wom...
If you're not listening to @TheCurrentCBC tune in. Powerful documentary about #dec6 #dv
@JessHowe I can try to help. Do you want to send your naptime questions to me over @themotherofall ? Will be online a little later.
@CFCvitalsigns Community Foundation of Greater Peterborough names its Executive Director http://www.cfc-fcc.ca/news... cc. @ptbo_Canada
@JessHowe If you can provide me with as much info as possible about the situation, that will help me in answering your question. Thanks.
I am skimming emails and doing triage on most things on my to do list. Most things in my brain that aren't book related keep falling out.
If you see me driving around town, you may want to bear in mind that I'm under the influence of book.
NEW: Ho-ho-hold the gift expectations: Santa's not wealthy this year: http://ca.lifestyle.yahoo.com/family-... (thx for spreading word @jmegan @CocktailDeeva )
@stratosphear If you figure that one out, let me know.
@Larra I will definitely be in the city at some point. Trying to coordinate with Dad's schedule. (He's the busy one.)
@dennyalexander That is fabulous news. (And how great that @unionst was able to help. I'm a fan of @unionst
I'm at the total absorption/late "pregnancy" stage of the book revision process. Am getting restless/edgy. So eager for book to be born.
@AlanaCallan Still waiting for that call. (I hope one of the kids didn't leave the phone off the hook.)
RT .@DesireeO Any suggestions re: which editor I should send an Arts press release to at @TorontoStar? http://www.thestar.com/contact...

ACTION: I clicked "recommend" to help other Canadians find the detainee documents on the CBC website http://www.cbc.ca/politic...
@1LeslieGarrett You're very welcome. I like that website because Debra Pepler and other top Cdn anti-bullying researchers are involved.
@janelangille What is the "hair in the fridge" part about?
@frankejames Happy to help spread the word. I am waiting (not so patiently) for something to turn the tide.
@stratosphear :-) Heather was just doing the Canadian thing -- or the traditionally Canadian thing -- being polite.
@KathyBuckworth Excellent reply!
And now I'm closing my browser so I can get back to those revisions I was talking about.
Looking forward to #CanadaafterHarper As Heather Mallick notes, he won't be PM forever. (Sometimes it just feels that way.)
@janelangille Got it! I was thinking, literally, of hair in the fridge. (Truly disgusting image.) Blech.
@calamityLDN That's even worse. / Are you hopping between Toronto and London these days? If so, lucky you!
@AVeryGoodYear I consider Harper to be our George Bush. And, Canadians, take note: we've already re-elected Harper once.
