weekend
I have to include a story from Friday...
At lunch I went to Criminal Records, to buy a CD that I've been wanting to get for a while - Wayne Petti (lead singer for Cuff the Duke)'s solo record. When I walked into the store, I looked over to the cash, and Wayne Petti was himself working there. Hilariously, a Cuff the Duke song was also playing on the store stereo. And then I walked up to the cash with his record in my hand. It was like three Wayne Petti lines randomly intersected in a single point.
The CD is good, by the way...
On Saturday, I took the long ride to spiritual direction. That afternoon/evening, we collected money for the Salvation Army outside of Holts, on Bloor. It was pretty cold (for a 3.5 hour shift)...
During the shift, and continuing through the night, and most of Sunday, it snowed. On Sunday morning, we trudged through a foot or so of snow to the laundromat (we pretty much had no clean clothes, or we would have postponed the outing...)
Church was pretty empty, and I played melodica. There was this one pretty cool part in the second last song where I totally screwed up... and Leah couldn't stop laughing.
In other news, we kept Mabel drugged all weekend, after her dental surgery on Friday. Luckily, she didn't seem to respond to the codeine in the same way she had to the morphine which the vet gave her (she was growling and woozy and violent when Leah picked her up!). She seems to be pretty much back to normal...

Where was I ?
So...
My new job is keeping me pretty busy, as you can tell from the lack of blogging (also, I'm not really feeling the blog recently, but I will try to keep it up for all the fans...) I am working on a film post-production facility, and an office building. Last week we had our client Christmas party at the Panarama.
So, what about the weekend?.. Leah and I rocked the Salvation Army collection kettle at Yonge and Bloor on Saturday. By which I mean we sat at one of those things for about 3 hours as people put money into it.
Also, we hung out with Bradley on Saturday night, and the Cumbys for brunch on Sunday. Groceries. Church.
