left a bit earlier then me yesterday afternoon because she wanted to go get herself a Tim’s donut with her coffee. After I locked the place up and rushed out the door, I was down the stairwell when I thought, I better check to see ifI locked the door, all that for nothing. I rushed out to see my bus pulling up and I got to the door and the driver didn’t see me and pulled away from me. Shit. So I waited in the nice afternoon winter air and I could see the orange sign of my City bus from the school bus in front of it. Light change. The bus pulls into the other lane and takes off missing me. Shit. I wanted to meet Anne down there at Clairview before the train pulled out. Finally I caught a bus and I got upstairs and there was the train pulling out. They usually stop for a minute for stragglers and I could see Anne there waiting inside the last car for me. I bolted for it and just caught it before the train pulled out. Whew.

Buskers were in full force down by the concourse heading topside passing Tim’s and over the parking lot. First thing I wanted was some Halls cough drops. I got those and headed upstairs. People liked my haircut and we settled into work with JT riding shotgun with me. I struggled with my cold and managed $455 by break. I ended up with $700 on the night and I didn’t want to talk to anyone tonight with this cold I have so I knew Don wanted to ride with me but I waited around for a bit and left and into Tim’s for a decafe and a donut. I waited there for ten minutes and headed downstairs the train and a brief wait and my bus came and I got home shortly after 10pm. Anne was kind of worried because I normally arrive home 15 min earlier but I just wanted to be by myself for a few minutes to avoid talking with anyone on the way home.

Anne mentioned that she could be getting some bonus reward points and because she hadn’t been getting any for awhile, she’s slated to get a backlog of points which translates into a couple of hundred bucks for us over the holidays. She said, I’m getting half. That’ll pay for my website account. I’ll have enough for that and my lodge dues for the first week in January. So Anne’s on the phone checking a few places out and then she decides to go out and pick up at Pizza hut. I wanted her to order delivery but they didn’t have a driver so as I was watching Raw (a 3 hour show tonight) she went down and got us a large Pizza out of the $20 I gave her. I didn’t want to eat chili and rice. She brought back the pizza and I enjoyed my show. Three hours of wrestling goodness. It was awesome. I ended up going to bed at 1:30am listening top Cast. Fred Bell as George’s guest.

Anyway, that’s all for now. I’ll post this later after I get up around noon.

I don’t recall how much sleep I got, maybe 5 hours if I’m lucky. I woke up around 12:10pm to catch the rest of the news but I didn’t p[ass out on the couch so I’m alright, for now.

Today, we’re off into work as per usual and tonight the Oilers are hosting the Avs and I believe the Oilers will win here at Rexall tonight. JT will have the game on for us and I’ll work out the 4-hour shift and head home. I want to work on POS G and give it the once over. My last pass will be to remove my "template" and get it ready for email. I’m going to try and get it out there Sunday.

Last night after my wrestling I ended up stepping on one of the cat toys a small ball that sent a kind of numbing pulse of something up my left side. Weird. I’ve got full mobility and all but it just felt odd. Anyway, that’s all for now.
