In the last two weeks, I’ve managed to (in no particular order):
•Acquire a job as a barista at Starbucks, in a Chapters bookstore, no less
•Learn the feats and abilities to manage an espresso bar, cold beverage station and learning to
bus tables
•Find the abilities within to not be consumed with in-experience at the job of Wedding
Photographer for Gill and Josh’s wedding
•Be able to plan a somewhat decent Sunday School lesson for a class of five sixth-grade girls
•Be able to prepare to plan another Sunday School lesson for a class of sixth-grade girls
•Say goodbye to a dear friend who will no longer be living in this city
•Finally get out to the Provincial Park to get some foliage shots, before all the leaves are gone
•Have a sleep over in a tent-trailer, with a night time windchill of -4°C
•Attend a bachelor party with a Safeway cake that says “Pre-made Penis“, spelt out by the groom, no less
•Manage to watch Forrest Gump long enough to be forty minutes late to pick up a friend at the airport*
•Get into an hour long talk about Tim Penner’s “Strategy for Crises; with full appendices”
•Watch all of Season 1 of Lost in four and half days
*Note that this is Carolyn’s fault. I’d be punctual, I could promise that.
I have a few things to comment…
1. I used to work at a coffee bar in a bookstore too…only it was Dove Christian Supplies in Lethbridge, not Chapters, but I did love it…do you?
2. The leaves are changing colour??? Awww, I miss that…the season changes in Oz suck, no colour change and hardly any leaves fall
3. I’m currently trying to watch the 1st season of the O.C., but its taken me a bit longer then four days…I say I’ll be done in about 4 weeks
To respond:
1. Yes, I love it. And I have visited Dove.
2. Most of the leaves are finished, we have half of them still green. Did you know we had a couple days of wet snow?
3. Good luck with OC. Now I’m done Lost, I’m on to Survivor: Guatemala.
