… Not a Bad Start
First - I would like to announce that as of 9:00pm tonight I now have a reliable satellite-supported Internet connection from my apartment within staff accommodation – which means I no longer have as good an excuse to avoid updating my blog.
Second - I blew the right front tire of my Neon and had to replace the rim and tires (they needed replacing anyways). So I went to Canadian Tire and bought the tires that were on special and saved (in that ‘spending’ a lot sot of way) some money and in the process I met an attractive young lady in the waiting room and after a few minutes of small talk she gave me her phone number – I may yet call her.
Third – The mystery at work has been revealed and aborted. Our owners were all-but finished the take over of a prominent hotel in another Alberta city (and guess where I was headed), however the seller got cold feet and pulled the plug at the eleventh hour. However things here are better, I have all the responsibility I want and my salary review is early next week.
Fourth – The local gaming group is starting to gel, although one of the members (the wildcard) has blown off gaming twice for a booty call (not that I can blame her…) I’m looking forward to seeing where it’s going to go.
More as it develops!
