I'm kind of
a sucker for list/questionnaire things on other people's blogs, and I've seen
this bad boy floating around the interwebs quite a lot lately, so thought I'd
throw my hat into the ring and play along as well…
Four names
other people call me other than my real name.
Dibbs
Darlo (Shane
calls me this occasionally – more often when he is texting me than in person
though)

For the record, people don't call me "double question mark" – I'm just suddenly realizing I don't actually have a lot of nicknames.

Four places
I've lived.
Victoria
Malahat
I spent a
month living in Tofino in my early 20s, and Ucluelet is currently kind of a
second home, so umm, yeah, does that count?

nothing.
Hmmm... Seems I have never actually lived anywhere other than South Vancouver Island.
Four places I've been.
Mexico,
Belize, Guatemala (all on one trip, so I'm counting it as one)
New Zealand
Grenada
Hawaii
While my
list of "places I've lived" is rather small, this list could go on and on. I've been pretty lucky in my travels.
Four places
I'd rather be right now.
Ukee
Europe – any
and all of it!
A beautiful
beach, with an umbrella drink in hand. Hawaii would do, or Mexico, or Cuba, or
the Domincan…

really, really want to see Machu Picchu)
Four of my
favorite foods.

just so darn versatile)

Four things
I always say.
"Colonel." (With a slight head nod greeting when I see Rusty)
"I don't
know. You decide."
"I don't know
if you know this about me, but I can eat."
"Sorry." (I am
Canadian after all)
