I can’t even believe it. I made it back to the office with time to spare before the meeting. I totally fried my brain at the computer training though. Since I planned to miss the last “unit” in order to beat traffic (yay me!), after lunch I worked ahead in the chapter the instructor wasContinue reading “Over the hump”

Conspiracy
Taco Time wants you to eat meat. It’s one thing to give Rob a crisp beef burrito instead of a crisp bean burrito, cus those sorta sound alike. That’s happened at multiple Taco Times.

When I washed my hair this morning with hotel-provided coconut, verbena and lime shampoo, I noticed that myContinue reading “Smells fishy”
Serious matters and not so much

As I understand it from my remote location,Continue reading “Serious matters and not so much”
Hot stuff
Rob enjoys spicy food. When asked at Thai restaurants how spicy, he says, “Max it out.” Saturday, in celebration of his birthday, a Vancouver Thai restaurant gave him yellow curry that he said was the spiciest he’d ever had.
