–Wrote but did not type words on the new story.
–Took big weekend project from 75% to 95% done.
–Decided I didn’t need rain gear and left house. Goggled at the sky: green-slate Apocalypse clouds, a day late. Went in, packed rain slicker. Came out, caught a spider with my face, relocated it.
–Tried to tweet about spider and realized a) I’d left my phone indoors; b) it probably wasn’t Tweetworthy.
–Fetched the phone and finally headed up the north False Creek seawall. Stopped ten minutes in to put on slicker. Walked in deluge to the burrito place in Yaletown. Which was, surprisingly, full of televised hockey and its worshippers, but their chorizo taco is so good I stayed anyway.
–Took Skytrain under False Creek and examined iGadgets at Best Buy. I was going to ask if any of you knew if the Belkin bluetooth music receiver was any good, but these guys say it’s about average and glitchy. Those Belkin guys! I suspect them of always making crap. Why is it they’re always the ones making the stuff I want?
–Walked the south seawall side of False Creek. Stopped halfway and stripped off rain gear to shoot ill-lit and no doubt fuzzy pictures of my Kingfisher friend. Raindrops kept falling on my head.
–Hit Safeway, Donald’s and La Grotto for groceries.
–Burst o’ teaching.
–Prepped flip chart for week’s mentoring.
–Italian homework!
–Another hour on big project. Got it to 96% and 10k words.
–Polished and submitted an article.
–Heated up the second half of godlike carnitas burrito.
–And now this!
Tomorrow, if I like, I can make like a slug.
