I thought about my old friend Robert Lin while shopping at Chapters this evening. Pity that he isn't around anymore. I'm sure he would've shared a thought or two with me about the Asian customer perusing the newsstand with her caucasian male companion. I ended up buying Cormac McCarthy's The Road for $9.99. ***
I've read that bananas are on the list of foods preferred by test pilots because it tastes pretty good in vomit form. Along these lines, my A-list of pleasant after-meal burp foods include the Big Mac and smoked oysters. ***
Earlier last week, we made an appointment to view the house next door. Once again, we weren't impressed with the floor plan, decor, upkeep, and anticipated reno cost, certainly not at the exorbitant asking price. We weren't thrilled with the realtor either—he unabashedly farted while talking to me about home theatres, and then again while extolling the sweet sound of tube-based stereo amplifiers. He also gave us some lame explanation for the ants crawling across the reception room floor—that they had gotten a ride into the house via a rolled-up newspaper. Matthew and Shaula spent the rest of the visit chuckling among themselves, explaining to me later that they had heard the realtor fart while he was busily stomping on the ants.***
I'm getting into Facebook now. Everybody and their cats and dogs are there.***
I booked the whole day off today to take my father-in-law to VGH for two CT scans, and to do lunch with a friend at Milestone's. Nice to see her again.
