Everything' s Well Alright


Well tennis was good, except my arm hurts from bashing tennis balls all over the place. Turns out I have terrible aim. My mom is reorganizing the kitchen and I am putting off knitting another dish cloth. I have to make 3 for the Wednesday volunteers because they are the one who taught me the pattern and gave me the wool. Tomorrow I learn how to make hats. Are you excited? Me too.

I left the house this lunch time hour with a french boy forcing me to leave, and then yelling out the door that he was going to marry me one day, and we would have so many babies, just for the fact that we would be having sex everynight. I thought that was kindof funny, and it made me smile as a walked the long 6 minute walk back to work. That's also nice, because back in montreal, my morning comute was easily a half hour. A good 15 on the metro, and then a good 15 walked down whatever main street that was going down to notre dame hospital.

I just really like my job here mortimer, its rediculously nice. Its relaxing, and i work with the best ladies around, Shannon and Susan. Everyone says that shannon is someone that i will most likely grow up to be. Susan is new, shes from prince edward island, is the project cordinator, and is hilarious, we drove this old truck to deliver broken down printers, to this hilarious place, wherea bunch of under 24 year old guys world, in a basement, working and fixing computers. THe truck also stalled about 8 times downtown yellowknife, and then we came back to a plate of crepes each on the table, saying that this lady, daria, dropped them off, saying thank you for ecology north's involvement in the Rivers to Ocean day. I got a free tshirt and hat out of that day. And Crepes.

It's the joke, we count how many tshirts we get from each events. Total is three so far.

Yesterday was aboringinal day, Charlotte, Arturo, Camille, and i breaded 3000 fillets of fish for the free meal. And then helped out came out bannick and corn and beans. To say the least, by the time the fish was done, i was covered with white flour, because the wind for blowing hard that day, and ghosts just want to appear.

The day before yesterday, olivier and i woke up at 6.30 and smoked meat for a lunch for this cbc guy (deneze?) he's young, pretty hipster looking, did schooling in chicago, married and then came back to the great north. He came over for a long lunch, we sat at the table for a good four hours, talking about everything. It was funny.

We also worked at this palestinian dinner and got a amazing meal out of the deal, and manned bouncy castles and popcorn stations and listened to montreal inspired ska by the waterfront, downtown, by city hall.
And i saw this cool movie, "Reel Injun", it was the cinema politica's choice for the night, and the director of the movie was there. It's actually a wicked moviel. You should see it.

It's busy here lady, plus to add to the mix, i've been reading through buckets of cooking books, and came along a new lover to add to the mix. David Chang.

Nothing new with that though.
Hope the tennis was fun.
Love you, and will love you while listening to norah roberts and nicki minaj.
