Monday Mornings
Jun. 27th, 2005 08:55 amAggh... Can't find my bus pass! I had it Saturday and i thought it was in my purse but it's nowhere evident. Gah! I had 2 leftover tickets and if i don't find it, it's not that major a loss since there will only be three more days it was good for anyway. But. Arse...
It's so nice to see the sun and feel the heat that i hate to complain! Actually i didn't put the ceiling fan on to sleep last night so it was warm but not stifling. Probably shouldn't have boiled potatos for salad but you gotta do what you gotta do. I've actually packed a nice lunch today and i should do that more often. I'll probably go sit out in the parade square to have it. I love working downtown! There's a park across the street in front of City Hall (that's the parade square) and we're only a few short blocks to the waterfront and there's lots of places to sit and enjoy the sun there. The nice thing about living on the coast is that we don't keep the high temps for too many days on end before the ocean breezes cool it off a bit. The down side is that the weather can also change quickly. Of course that's not always a down side but usually when it changes, it changes for the worse not better. lol
Doctor Who season finale tomorrow night!!!! I'm really looking forward to it and i've done so well managing to avoid most of the spoilers though i do know one non-plot-related thing but i won't say in case any Canadians are 100% spoiler free. The good news is that there will be not just another season but one beyond that already booked! I do hope CBC carries it all! I think the ratings have been pretty good so here's hoping.
What's going on this week? Canada Day is Friday so another short work week. There are a lot of things going on, concerts outdoors all three days, fireworks, a parade from the Nova Scotia Tattoo participants. I should try to take that in. Maybe fireworks as well. There are pancake breakfasts in the mornings on both sides of the harbour which i always mean to go to and never do. Just don't get my backside out that early lol! I should make the effort though if the weather is nice. Pack a bag with sunscreen, water, a book, camera, *July bus pass* (koff).
oh crap. forgot to mail a birthday card last week. It probably won't get there by Thursday now but Canada Post does sometimes surprise me. Well it's in the mail anyway but since there's no Saturday delivery, if it doesn't get there Thursday, she won't get it until Monday. e-card, methinks, just in case. Lots of birthdays in June and July. I have to get another handful of cards for the July birthdays. It takes 2 frigging weeks to get a card mailed to Manchester! Thing is, i have had occaisions where a card has made it across the water in a week so i'm always optimistic and send them a week instead of 2 weeks ahead.

Jun. 27th, 2005 06:37 pmIt was actually chillier out than it looked! But i sat outside at lunchtime anyway just to get the fresh air and sunshine.
Made Maple Curry Chicken Pasta tonight.. Bought little tube pasta, about the size of penne but it's blunt cut on the end. When it was all cooked, i took the lid off the pot and most of the tubes were standing up on their end in the pot. Looked comical. Wyn, if i wanted to make that as a vegetarian recipe, what other veggies would go good in it besides the peppers and onions? I was thinking maybe cauliflower or maybe tomato. I don't really like zucchini and i don't think mushrooms would work.
