N8: Sicky McSickerson of the clan McSickish

Add comments

I spent most of the day sleeping, ’cause I seem to have about 25 minutes of life in my batteries before I need to crash out again.  Got up late (the kids don’t have a weekend schedule), and I slept on the couch for a while before we wandered outside to get some loonies (dollar coins, for our American readers) for laundry, and then looked at fish and lizards and what might have been chincillas (?) at Aquariums West.

Managed to get home *just* before I crashed out again in Ripley’s top bunk ’cause our bedding was in the laundry.

Remember last week, when I was all “Lookie me, I made Pot Roast!”

Yeah, today Arwen did THIRTEEN loads of laundry today (Tate’s potty training, and somehow we’re just wearing more, I guess, maybe?)

Are ya… are you truly grokking how incredibly fascinating my day was?  Like, WHOOO!

We watched Simon Pegg’s new movie “How to Lose Friends and Alienate People,” which was a bit of an anti-Hollywood/NewYork thing, which is interesting, considering how Hollywood Simon Pegg has been getting over the last few years.  Last time I was in Rogers Video, and renting Pegg’s “Run, Fat Boy, Run” and the lady behind the counter started asking if I’d seen Spaced, which is pretty rare in Canadian circles, being a BBC4 show.  Good though, that our boy Pegg is going places.  Maybe now the rest of the shows cast by his friends will start showing up over here more, too.  Black Books, Green Wing, maybe even some No Heroics.

Maybe you have to be a certain KIND of Canadian, but we seem to like what they do over there, and then the folks to the South seem to like paying us to be funny for them.  Up here, we’re all “That was pretty good, y’know, considering you’re Canadian and all.”

Okay, I have no brain left now, and need to eat something before my stomach gets wobbly again.
