Not sure....
So i'm not entirely sure what to talk about, but I felt like I should post something.
Not too much has been happening. work is continuing on and I'm improving on a daily basis still. The restuarant is closed for 10 days and I thought i had all of them off. As it turns out, I don't and will probably be working most of them. I'm happy about that because it means I get to keep some semblance of a cash flow. Not sure what we'll be doing but it appears to be a lot of manager-type stuff and what not. Who knows?
I went in to Cochrane today and did some shopping and taught some of Bonnie's mom's students their lessons. It really helps advanced students to get 2nd opinions on things, or at least that's the idea. I had a great time and it served to fulfill the musical void that has been going on out here.
In terms of shopping, all I can say is "WOW!" I got roughly the same amount of stuff as here in Banff for $70 instead of $140. Then i saved 7 cents a litre on gasoline! I also picked up some miscellaneous stuff from the drug store, and the electronics store, and went to get a haircut, but left because the line was too big. Next door was another haircut place, but it was $35 for a normal cut and there's not a freaking chance in hell that I'm going to pay that much for a haircut.
I also want to thank June for loaning me the books; I have finished them both. Anybody looking for a good read I definitely recommend "A Million Little Pieces" by James Frey. There has been some degree of controversy surrounding the book because Frey admitted that not everything in the book is truthful. However, the truth of the subject matter is irrelevant in a story as powerful as this one.
I'm very much looking forward to seeing anybody that comes out here - showing you all this place and where I am, and being able to see everybody. Come visit!
Also, I've had people ask so here we go.
***The things i need/could use/want ***
A small sauce pot
A basic model digital camera
Ski goggles
hrm...yea pretty short list. I'm quite well situated. I'll post more as it comes to me

that was the saddest little christmas list i've ever seen. you're adorable.
I agree with Bonnie, pretty sad little Christmas list. I'll get the ski goggles and send them to you. As for the sauce pan, I'll just send you money cause it will cost too much to mail it. Ok, so anyone else can take care of the camera. love you, mom
Ok, so this is your mother. I'm responding to your dad's comment about you going to Tucson. Hmmm . . . If you are going to get a week off, my idea would be to come this way so we, being your mother and sister along with your father, could see you. All of them out there in Tucson can afford to go visit you where you are.
