Chasing Waterfalls

If you’ve read the entry below, then you know that I had a pretty good weekend - at least in the sense of it being precisely what I needed. However, as is often the case, there were a few things not so great about it.
1) If you’ve been reading me for the past few weeks, […]

I was so happy to be getting out of the city yesterday. Montreal had a smog warning. Yes, smog. In February. I’m used to having smog in the summer when it gets really humid, but this is ridiculous. Normally, I can see Mount Royal from our front window (just the top of it, mind you), […]

Hmm… I was doing some surfing tonight, and honestly, I don’t even know how this train of thought got started, but I’m wondering if I’d be a good paralegal. Supposedly, you can get a paralegal job without having any kind of certificate. Essentially, you’re doing a lot of filing and other basic office work (which […]

There’s nothing quite like doing someone else’s work for them and then getting criticized for the way you’ve done it - by the person who should’ve been doing it in the first place.
Sigh. Friday afternoon. Half hour to go. I can’t begin to express how happy I am that the weekend is almost here.

There have been a few things I’ve wanted to post here, but until now, I didn’t, for a number of reasons. First and foremost, there were a few people I wanted to discuss it with without it being posted on the web. Also, I’ve found that I’ve been getting too much advice on this subject, […]

What a surprise! We have no water again here at the office! Maybe, just maybe, the Prez will someday realize that he should, y’know, replace the pipes like the plumber suggested? Good grief - I guess I’ll be driving up to the gas station again a few times today.

I’ve decided not to watch “Survivor” this […]

Talk about payback.

I’d like to say that it’s VERY nice to be at work today. Would I like to have been able to sleep in and veg around all day? Sure, but sitting at a desk doing paperwork is a huge improvement over lugging boxes and furniture around.

Two more rooms were painted on Sunday - mine and my parents’, and finally today, things are nearly back to normal. What a weekend. On Saturday, we were all up at a decent time clearing out the rooms and putting the stuff in the living room and the computer room, filling up garbage bags. Suffice […]

Our place is being painted after all. In fact, the painter came yesterday morning at 7 a.m. to paint the living room, hall and the stairway. That means we were moving stuff out of those areas and into my parents’ bedroom and the computer room all this week. Last night, from 9 until 11, we […]
