nematome The weekly TIGR meeting was canceled today, but only after we all connected from the around the world, and agreed that Jennifer had forgotten to send a cancellation notice, as she’s on vacation this week. No one had any issues to bring up. Book club was attended by me, Suzanne, and Janet. Janet arrived close … Read more
My Monday meeting was lightly attended today, but the shit hit the fan between Randy and Cassandra. I called Helen afterwards, and then called Cassandra to give her an opportunity to vent. I know she is at wit’s end with that team! Thank God she returned to work, or I would be dealing with them. … Read more
I left Van’s at about 9:15. At home, my message light was blinking with two messages from Delta airlines wanting to schedule a time to deliver my bag. I called them, and they said they’d be here some time in the next four hours. I traded a couple of e-mails with Robert, with one containing … Read more
The alarm went off at 8:30. I hit the snooze three times, and finally got up at 8:57. I showered, and headed down to breakfast while Steve got up, shaved, and showered. The breakfast area was packed. I guess this is how it probably was every morning, but we never got down there before 11, … Read more
At 6:45 I left the room and walked up to the Metro. I exited at the Laurier station, and read the map up at the street on a pole at the station, trying to figure out how to get to St. Laurent. I walked over to a street that I thought should be Rue St. … Read more
We woke up today at around 11:00 to the smell of frying bacon. I got dressed to go downstairs to have breakfast, and confirm that we were only dreaming about there being bacon down there this morning, and Steve slept in a little while longer. It was only a dream, or perhaps Luc and Michael … Read more
I got up at about 11:10 today, and went down to breakfast. I had a croissant today, as they had some plain ones. I usually avoid them because they are the most fattening of all bread, and I love them so much, and eat too much bread already, but this was the first day I’d … Read more
We took the subway to the Lanier station, and from there took a cab, for $3.75 to Sauna 5018, our old haunt. The place was really dead. I sat in the theater for a little while, actually for about 30 or 40 minutes to give Steve time to work that dark and glory hole room. … Read more
We got up at around 10 or 10:30, and had breakfast downstairs. I just love the classical music they play in that room. It’s always classical, but not the same stuff every day. Not being a morning person, it’s a nice way to ease into the day, so much more so than a TV blasting … Read more
We left the room at around midnight, and headed over to Sauna 5018, our old haunt from the first two days. Steve headed for the dark room, and I went downstairs to the theater. There was this magnificent specimen of a man sitting in the second row of seats, right on the end where you … Read more
