Day 14

I know!  I'm sorry!  This post is late  :(  I almost had it ready last night, but a friend called and wanted to go for a run, and it's been so long that I just couldn't say no (although, today my knees wish I had).  It was really nice to use my legs again and feel my lungs working.  And work they did!

My friend is an ultra-marathoner and in ridiculously good shape.  He's such a nice guy, though, that he never makes you feel bad for slowing him down.  While I was wheezing and panting, trying to keep up, he was chatting away, going as slow as his mile-long legs would let him.

Anyhow, book.  Sunlight.  Cozy chair.  This is what I'd like to be doing this weekend.  What are you up to?

Have a great weekend :)

Day 13

Today has been a day of hurry-up-and-wait.  I was supposed to pick Steve up from the airport this morning, but his blackberry had a seizure in the night and froze.  That meant that it's alarm didn't go off this morning, so Steve missed his flight back from Texas.  He's been at the airport on standby all day, but it sounds like he finally got on a flight home.  I can't wait to see him!

I think he'll be quite impressed at how much stuff I got done while he was away.  I hope he doesn't forget all the responsible things I've been doing when he sees what a disaster the kitchen is.  Hmm... two hours is probably enough time to clean up....  Meh.  On the other hand, there are donuts somewhere in that mess.  I'll tell him I just made it a treasure hunt.

Another shot of Chesterman Beach.  Are you tired of these yet?  Don't worry- we're almost at the end of my Tofino polaroid.  You're safe until I send off the film!

Have a great weekend and enjoy the Stampede if you're in Calgary :)

Day 12

Three days in a row!  I think I may be turning into a responsible adult right before your very eyes!  Except for reverting slightly in the "adult's feed themselves" department.  It's no fun cooking for yourself, so while Steve's been away, I've been surviving on coffee.  Lots and lots of coffee.  The caffeine buzz is kind of awesome.  I think I've reached sort of a transcendental stage where food isn't really necessary.

Well, I suppose it wasn't technically lady-like or grown-up to use that bus stop downtown to pop the top off of my Pellegrino, either.  Whatevs.

I took this photo at Tonquin Park in Tofino.  I also got a bunch of images with the LOMO that need to be developed.  I really need to send that film away soon.  That sounds like something an adult would do.  Hmm... better cross your fingers.

Have a great (sunny!) day :)

Day 11  

Listening to Phoenix and dreaming about Paris :)

but sitting in Calgary.  Although, when I look at buildings like this, I can pretend it's Paris.  Anyone know the French translation for "Grain Exchange"?

Have a great day :)

Day 10

Today I'm missing the coast and the guy I love the most.  But how could I help it?  Chesterman Beach is just one of those places you want to stay forever (and Steve is pretty amazing too!).  Luckily, I've got Joel Plaskett to help me get through until Steve is back and we get to make our home wherever we want it.

Talk to you tomorrow :)
