Winding up the weeks

Vancouver, Canada


Ok! A busy week of not much this week! It's now Sunday, and while I feel like we've had a really busy time of it, the opposite could not be more true. Starting with Monday, we went and had a game of frisbee at Kits beach. Sarah still throws like a girl, insisting that I have to walk 30 feet to either my left or right to catch the frisbee that she "meant to put over there". I'm pretty sure that I got seven or eight times the exercise she did that day. I have decided that her attempt to kill me this week was clearly by running me on the beach so much that I would go into cardiac arrest. Obviously this did not eventuate. Phew! The feeling of Summer is getting stronger and stronger though, there were heaps of people at the beach on Monday night, so I imagine the weekends are getting pretty chockas down there.

Tuesday and Wednesday we managed to not do anything interesting at all... Well, not that I can remember, so it either wasn't that interesting OR is was so much fun and so interesting that I can't remember. I have a feeling that it is the former.

I was getting serious steak cravings Thursday evening. Once you've gone back to having pub food, you know you're in trouble cause you crave it more and more. I (having no will power or budgetry sense) forced a sit in at Bimini's tap house for a $10 steak. Brilliant! Once again cooked to perfection. I'm pretty sure it was anyways, mine only stayed on the plate for about 30 seconds. As for Friday, well, it was my last day at CLBC. The lovely crew there took me out for lunch to the pub across the road. Now, I had only been there a couple of months, but everyone was so lovely, they made me feel like I had been there for about 10 years! It was awesome! I had a nice burger, plenty of bacon on that one. Finished out the afternoon and said good bye to all the CLBC people. Sad to go, but happy to move on. I think that's probably the best way to put it. I'm really looking forward to getting moving across Canada and leaving work is just one step closer! But I would like to say a big thank you to everyone therefor making me feel so welcome, it was great!

As for the weekend, well, I can't really remember what happened, so it can't have been that interesting. There is no doubt in my mind though, that we had penty of time for beering and relaxing! I know for a fact that we watched "Return of the King" on Sunday, so that took up a good 3.5 hours and there was plenty of domestic work around the house. I even got a little bit out of control and bought a swifer. Yes, I was getting homicidal about the dust. I don't know exactly what it is about our apartment that makes it so dusty, but it sure is annoying when you sweep and 10 seconds later there is more dust. This could be affecting my decision to be a full-time house husband. But probably not.

Hope everyone is well and stuff. Only like 20 more days here in B.C. Probably less, I didn't do the sums.

Cheers

Tom
