Random Accomplishments and Observations
I applied for my passport today; it's been on my to-do list since March 2007. As the teller gave me my receipt, I grinned, leaned in and said "It's my first one, I'm excited."
A young girl on the bus wore a t-shirt that said "Model Citizen" on the front. I thought it was pretty cool. When she got off the bus she threw a piece of paper on the sidewalk and walked away. My illusions were shattered.
I caught my reflection in the door window of an ATM vestibule and noticed I was wearing a deep, sinister frown. There's nothing bad enough going on in my life to warrant that. After that I consciously walked with my eyebrows raised. I preferred looking like an idiot than a grump.
After much - and I mean much - deliberation, I put a digital camera on hold at Future Shop for pickup tonight. I realized that I enjoy doing research for electronics about as much as I enjoy going to the mall. But I am looking forward to my new toy. :)
When I stop trying to control people and situations around me I'm a lot more at peace, and a lot more fun to be around.
When I get my black Jacob cardigan and my black consignment shop sleeveless top dry-cleaned as separate items it costs me $16. When I present them as a sweater set it costs me $10. It really is a nice sweater set.
When I start writing about the price of dry-cleaning, it's time to go. 'Til the next time ...

Funnily enough I love researching electronic do-dads, and enjoyed helping you this morning, we make a good team in that regard Guimond...
Show me numbers in a bar graph format and I'm happy as can be spending hours analyzing them, reading up their meaning, finding optimal values, reading qualitative user testimonials and becoming an expert in the field of whatever product I am researching in no time.
Hmmm... maybe I should be in retail?
Nah, I am too honest to be a good salesmen! ;-)
