My bag finally came last night. According to the courier guy who called me at six, it should have been here by 7:30. It got here just before 9:30, and by that point I was getting pretty impatient and panicky. Afterall, I have my showers at night - which is even more important when I’m […]

Mini Christmas Vacation

I decided that since I’m just sitting around waiting for my wayward suitcase to be delivered (which it should be any minute now), I might as well write that entry I promised.
I managed to fly to Montreal without any delays, cancellations or problems. That’s always my major concern. I’ve realized that the anxiety I feel […]

Well, the flight…

… started out well.
I got to the Montreal airport today, went to the little machine that prints out your boarding pass before you check your bags, put my credit card in and verified the info, and then the machine told me an error had occurred and I had to go to the “triangle” - […]

Flip Side

So this is just a quick entry before flying out to Montreal tomorrow for a few days over Christmas.
I went to work today, but left at 4 because I’m still recovering and I don’t want to go into a relapse when I have to travel. I’m pretty much packed - just a few things […]

Sick Day

So I stayed home today. There was really no doubt when I woke up this morning. It was about 5:30 a.m. and I woke up because I had to pee, and as I came to, I realized that although my throat seemed to be somewhat improved, my nose was completely stuffed up, bringing about that […]

Permanency

I passed my evaluation!! I had it at 9:30 this morning, and the office administrator, T, took me into one of the corner conference rooms. She had filled out an evaluation, as had one of the legal secretaries, and she had asked one of the lawyers - one of the more particular ones - who […]

Crossed Over

Last night, I officially crossed the line over into the land of White Trashhood.
When I got off the bus last night, I headed over to Access Nova Scotia, the license bureau, and switched my Quebec license over to a Nova Scotia one - which made me feel more like a permanent resident, wee! - and […]

Winter Sleepiness

What is UP with this time of the year? It doesn’t matter if I go to bed early or I go to bed at my usual time (11:30-12), I’m flat-out exhausted! Sometimes I’m not so bad in the morning, but come afternoon, I want a siesta. And I’m not the only one - a lot […]

Christmas Party 2005

We had our Christmas party last night, and although it was a total blast, it couldn’t have been a worse night for it, weather-wise.
Thus far, I’ve taken great enjoyment in calling my parents whenever I’ve heard they got snow, but I can’t laugh anymore. While I was at work yesterday, Faith called out, “It’s […]

Getting up at 6 a.m. is painful.
I had to do it yesterday because the woman who normally covers the phones from 8 to 9:30 was sick. Thankfully, I got a call from her at 10pm on Monday night from her, so at least I knew; otherwise, I probably would’ve had to jump out of bed […]
