The Vent

[SpiritAlight 1]

Ah, yes, addictions.

We all have something don't we.

I have been busily studying myself.

The Ego, that thinks it needs this and that and then "we" will be happy (my, myself and I).

Then you get "there" and The Ego needs something more.

Oh more more more...the human condition.

Hmmm...very introspective these days...again.

Come on Spring and get me outside damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah yes, and there is no great outdoors here in this big city.

I must go exploring and find some quiet place by the Lake where I can summon/inspire the serendipity goddesses & gods to come out and play.

Good news, bad news.

What is the difference except what your mind makes it to be?

Chew on that for a bit sweeties.

yeah I know my hubby smokes and it bothers me but what really bothered me yesterday was the fact that his brother was laughing at me about it...

Well, meanwhile back at the bank.

- Went to see RBC and Marco 10 days ago.

- Still don't have Canadian bank account debit cards (just some ones he wrote on in felt pen that rubs off - I guess they work but sheesh.

- Asked him to have the U.S. bank courier our cards to us for the Centura account, he calls this morning, leaves voice mail and states that in their experience the cards get held up in customs so even if they courier them now they probably won't get here before we leave for the U.S.

- Now we have to go to our 'real' bank (TD) and get access to our American account on our cards - instead of just withdrawing the money and putting it in the RBC.

But it's all messy. We just wanted to basically deal with one bank. Anyway, I think I will just tell Marco that they should hold the cards in Florida and we will pick them up personally. Has no one else in Canada ever opened one of these accounts??

I have to call him back to tell him what to do with the cards......he says it's urgent!!

For the time being I'll stick around, but still look for a more adult like cafe

Like Chicka Latte?

BTW, what, pray tell, did your apron read?

I believe chicka latte (which is waaaaay closer to our place than Spawn-Cafe) would not hire me. Yup, contrary to popular opinion, I am only Lady Heather and wear cute pervy outfits @ home. Besides, I'm too old

The apron didn't say anything.... the one at Spawn Cafe I mean .... :devil: :devil:

Zen and the art of Snow Blower Maintenance? I've read quite enough of that this winter. It's not your ego that is going crazy but the monsters from your id, why quibble over details. The hoary blanket of winter has become a straitjacket. Sun of York be damned we want the sun of Florida or Texas or California. Come home Persephone, we miss ya!

You're not too old Grandmama; perversion has no age limit. I know what your apron should say, "free hot chocolate for the kids." On second thought...

Your malice has no limits.... anyone tricked you with hot chocolate in your toddler years maybe?? :devil: :rofl:

[trailmix 77]

Hey guess what. Marco doesn't want to talk to me anymore either. I called him back, he called me back...blah blah blah, we will send your Centura cards to your Sister's house in Nebraska, I will call you when your account is opened and give you the number and leave you voice mail etc etc.

He was very short.

You always hurt the ones you love? Any incidents concerning my childhood and a cup of hot chocolate are between me, the almighty and the perpetrator, whoever he or SHE might be.

Sheesh. Confusion, annoyance, bleh-blah-ness.

The waltzing secretary is not in today.... OR tomorrow . He is, "sick", and got his dates for physical therapy "confused" - douchebag. And then he wonders why the boss wants him outta here. I am not pleased to cover for his sorry azz (i.e. answer phones) while he is "sick", more often than not. I do not like people with poor work ethics

Or maybe I'm just b1tchy because I went decaf. Is headache and irritability signs of caffeine withdrawal?

Ok, smoking time now.

Like your brother?

Caffeine withdrawal is always fun as you are now discovering. Hang in there Sis, only a few more days to go.

Smoking time? Arson's not the answer. Then again...

Sign that made me laugh most in public...it was stuck in back of a huge espresso/cappuccino machine in a café in Granville Island Market:

"Unattended children will be sold as sandwiches."

I just about died.

Once again, you delight, you bring joy.
