Wanna see me climb a tree?

Well, that was one busy weekend… Saturday was spent doing homework followed by meeting up with Paul, Rachel and Spanky to move the dresser that Rachel had built. A twelve drawer monster no less. It’s beautiful but awkward to move, so it took us two trips even though we had the truck and the Spankymobile.
Later in the the evening, we met up with Rogé and some of his friends for dinner at the Irish Heather in Gastown. The food was ok, the atmosphere was great but the entertainment was provided by the bums who would approach us when we stepped out for a smoke.
No one wanted a cigarette, just cash. One offered to sing a song, another thought we might enjoy watching him climb a tree. In total, four of the scariest, hard-core homeless people you have ever seen approached us. If only I had a firehouse handy…
Today was more studying, followed by my deciding to re-do my Asian trip pages. I got a couple re-done and I’m going to prepare my 2005 pages ahead of the trip so it’s not such a horrendous job. I’m assuming (praying) that I’ll have a job to return to this time so I won’t have the time I had last year to work on documenting the trip.
Headed up to the Shnewt’s place to watch the Superbowl this afternoon. The game was ok, though I wasn’t all that interested. I caught a ride home with Charlene at the end of the third as I had no cash riding on it. I think we were all pulling for Philly anyway…
The big news was that Biff told us about their ‘life changing decision‘ that they have recently decided upon. They are adopting a dingo and will raise it as their child.
Personally, I think it was a pathetic attempt to garner hits…










Mark,
Thanks so much for all your help on Sat moving my baby 6 foot long walnut dresser. It was good to see you all week-end for Roger’s dinner and for the Superbowl on Sun.
