We has ’em.
Thursday, off to Lexi’s to meet up with my cousin Darcy and her charming offspring; Saturday, off to the church Board retreat. (Yes, knowing that was coming up got me off my ass to get sussed out by the RCMP).
Went and harrassed Tom, one of my all time fave activities, to do something about Ziva’s subwoofer. Ziva is suddenly getting better gas mileage; the only thing I can think of which would account for such a thing is that I’ve finally burned off all the sludge that was sitting in the bottom of the gas tank, because I’m getting 30 more kilometres out of a tank and believe me I have not changed my lead footed driving style. Anyway, Ziva’s subwoofer has a crack. Jeff wants me to make the subwoofer removable so he can get his bike in the car (the bike would only fit with bungees last Friday when we met up at Swiss Chalet).
Tom gave me celery. If I find a good place to grow it I’ll grow it next year. I am already planning a hosta bed under the dogwood in the back corner. Right now that part of the yard is just a cluster of bluebells and weeds, mostly nightshade, so something to improve it’s appearance and remove grass would be nice.
The quit-by-pictures girl was a fake. O well.
I tried contacting the JetBlue attendant’s public defender to offer support but nobody is answering the phone there.
Got to get to work…. don’t want to move, although I’ll be fine when I get there.
Watched a simply marvellous movie called The Straight Story last night. If you want a clean, sad but uplifting story that is full of kindness to strangers, check it out. At one point Jeff and I said to each other that Richard Farnsworth’s wattles have more acting talent than Keanu Reeves’ whole body, not that we hate Keanu Reeves or anything, we do like him even if woodpeckers do land on his head.
I wish I’d taken a picture of Miss Margot guarding the rat Eddie killed.
