This year’s AIDS Walk for Life will be held this afternoon, and I’ll be headed out the door shortly. I’m really grateful to be heading down there with the generous support of so many people behind me, and even though I’ve been posting about this thing pretty constantly this week – and indeed, throughout the […]

Tomorrow morning, for the second year in a row, I’m heading downtown to do the AIDS Walk for Life in honour of the AIDS Committee of Toronto. I’ll be walking alone, but I’ll be backed by the generous support of a wide range of sponsors, who I want to thank once again for stepping up […]

Well, we’re getting down to the wire now! We’ve got just two days to go until this year’s AIDS Walk for Life, and the donations and support that so many of you have provided so far have been nothing short of incredible. If I haven’t said it enough already, then thank you. For those of […]

“I’ve ordered your birthday present!” Kate gleefully told me last night – reminding me in the process that yeah, my thirty-first birthday is two weeks from today. “Shit,” I thought. “I haven’t gotten Kate anything yet.” That’s not how it works, of course.

Once again, with this year’s AIDS Walk for Life just four days away, I’d like to thank everyone who’s been generous enough to sponsor me – and I’d also like to encourage the rest of you to step up and help us reach our goal. Many thanks, guys! Every little bit helps, and your support […]

Yesterday was garbage day, and when Kate and I got back from the movies last night, the first thing we did was collect our empty bins and put them back in the garage. Empty, that is, except for our green bin, in which an anonymous neighbour and his or her dog had “dropped off a […]

With this year’s AIDS Walk for Life just five days away, I wanted to once again thank everyone who’s been generous enough to sponsor me – and put the call out to everyone else who’s willing and able to help push us over the top. Your support is much appreciated, and every little bit helps. […]

This year’s AIDS Walk for Life is happening this Sunday. Great big thanks once again to everyone who’s been generous enough to sponsor me so far. We’ve still got a way to go before we reach my revised and admittedly ambitious goal, so I’m calling on you, faithful reader, to help push us over the […]
