A windy day

today as the wait out front here wasn’t bad even though it was windy. I got into Carona station and at work I saw Mike and bud out there smoking. They could get into the building but couldn’t get up stairs and no security around. So eventually Will came along. I made up a story about the donuts so this way I don’t have to get them anymore. Good. JT showed up for entertainment and our 2nd day doing the disclaimer and it wasn’t to bad doing CDIH. I had $430 by break. The 2nd half I did about the same ending up with $725. I felt good about that. At one point I was leaning over with the screen on F1 sale and I was leaning over asking about his impressive cell phone (he’s able to get Shaw cable ob his phone-nice.) well my belly must have hit some of the keys and I took out the whole system off line. We had a laugh over that. After work I loitered around taking a leek and I worked my way across the parking lot and into Carona, Still windy but not as bad as before. I heard the lrt approach bell. Which train I rain. There was my University train there and it pulled out before I could reach it. Damn.   I got the next one and made some great connections to Chapters and my first time out there during the day in a long time. I looked around for books. I had 2 in my hands and was hoping I could pick them up. I picked up William C Deitz Runner. Looks interesting and something else I can’t recall the title Ghost something. I took them to pay for at the counter but I was about #3 bucks short. I knew I should have brought that extra ten. I might go back over there next Friday and pick it up. I barely had my jacket sipped up as I saw the bus outside and I barely caught that. I made great connections getting back as well. If I hadn’t taken that leek I would have been back a half hour earlier.

I got home and Anne was waiting for me a bit po’d because I’m straying from my normal Saturday routine but I explained to her I’d be up at Chapters. She didn’t put up much of a fight. So I had a little nap although I could haves had a few hours, still I’ll pass out good tonight what with the gravel and half a beer. All in all so far, today was a good day. I’ll listen to Coast tonight-back rub and pass out. While I was having my nap Anne went and got me one of those 2 year pocket calendar/planners I like to use for marking my totals at work. I’m adding something else in there now, my weekly bank. This week, $1,770.00 came. Not bad. It wasn’t bonus money but good enough just the same.

 
Well that’s about it for tonight. I’m going to be working on BGS and do some blogging after that before the news and lunch, then we usually hit the sack about 2am listen to Coast for a bit and with that gravel in me I should pass out and have a great sleep. So that’s all for tonight.
