a la la la

Monday: Sipping not very good coffee and eating stale cookies; desperately trying to keep my head from slipping down down down into the peaceful depths of sleep - that's how I've started this monday morning. Start? Well, continue. I was slightly more awake when I had hot water beating down over my body at 730 am... especially when the temperature suddenly jumped 10 degrees and then plummeted 25. (Aside from an unreliable shower I do like my apartment; nothing like waking up to sunshine streaming through the window.) It was cloudy this morning.

But back to work.

I actually shut the door and attempted a nap. My excuse for shutting the door when no-one does in the dept.? I was cold, and wanted the music on. Like anyone notices anyways. Its too warm in here now, and the music is gradually becoming grating, but I don't want to open the door just yet. I'll suffer through. Pretend to be working. I find all kinds of odd web-sites when I'm at work. cfox.com has some good resources (under "Geeks"... yeah, I'm a geek - get over it) Pilfered some really cool pics, if I could figure out how I would post them. And a magazine website based in Vancouver (God, I miss that city).

www.ripemagazine.com

Check it out.

11:29. Half an hour and its lunch time. Lunch I'm going to skip so I can fly away early. I've got laundry to do at home, and all that Jazz of an apartment. I do really like that place. Maybe I'll stay: live there another year. But to live downtown... I'd love that. Need another roommate. I know a guy. I think I'd kill him. I know he'd try and kill me. Among other things.

They're talking about skinny-dipping on the radio. I'd do that. Maybe. Why is it called "Skinny"-dipping? Can only skinny people do it? If I were to dip would it be "Average-sized-girl"-dipping? And why "dip"? Tho I suppose a bunch of naked people splashing around together in the water likely won't stick to swimming.

I Digress.

(see the capital D? It was a pretty big digression; from work to average-dipping)

Remember that post about loving summer and art galleries and appetizers? I saw the Cat display at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia on the weekend. Thrilled me chilled me. I love cats almost as much as I love art. No appetizers and boardwalks yet tho. But I've got plans for Shakespeare by the Sea.

I should start working.

I scored an A+ on my final english paper (research on the Shipping News). I think I blew him away, he barely took anything off for grammar. That thrilled me almost as much as the Cats. Marks aren't up yet for the course, but I'm banking on an A. Sweet Ass. I think "Uber-Happy" would be appropriate.

Yeah, work it is. (and by work I mean a combination of napping and checking out cool websites)

ciao <><
