A Ho-Hum Day...not really - Dec 6

Dec 7

Whoops guys, I made a mistake...it should be Dec/6...I guess it's wishful thinking on my part that I thought I was writing emails faster than I had imagined...but I am sure you guys are smart enough to figure out the mistake before I mentioned it.

Oh I forgot to mention to you guys...yesterday/Dec 6 (yesterday...hahahahahaha sure) was payday for the Katimavik crew (minus Emilie I think)...so my "paycheck" (not a check though...it was cold hard cash) comes out to - $21 dollars (3 dollars per day X 7 days = $21...yes you guys can stop laughing now), which I celebrated by buying a medium box of timbits at the local Tim Hortons for the Katimavik crew - $2.25? (almost a day's pay, hahaha)

Anyways what happened in Dec 7...woke up again, had breakfast, and because I am such a slowpoke by nature, I was a minute late for work despite the fact that I live so so close to work (around the distance between my house and the high school, for my high school pals). But Betty Ann was pretty relaxed though, so my workday starts...

Pretty much my work is similar to my first day at work, but with even less things to do...no matter, I have my own emails to write, music to listen to, and people to talk to on msn (even though I always have to watch out for Betty Ann, as she likes to come into the room silently and give me orders/chat with me/activate her car through the window...a couple of times I think she saw me using msn). That is why you guys got a looooooooooong first email, hehe =)

Nothing much happening at work, except that:
1) During the afternoon as I was writing emails, Betty Ann asked me to help her make the Development office look festive and Christmas-y...so I did that. However, we cannot really go all out, because her boss (Stoney - General Manager of Blind River Development) and Tony (don't know what his role is) dislikes Christmas, haha (this event may have happened on Friday instead, i don't know...everything is meshing in together)
2) As I was writing emails/msning/listening to music, Stoney just popped into the room all of a sudden and made mean dog barking noises...which scared the shit out of me. I pretty much jumped up and yelled "Holy Shit!", which made him laugh for at least 5 minutes...honestly it wasn't so much of the surprise factor that scared me, but the fact that the big honcho caught me emailing/msning/listening to music in a sudden that scared me...

What else to say...it was a beautiful day, so after work I went and took some pictures of the lake and other scenaries, and then walked to Value-Mart (the only grocery store in Blind River) to develop my photos. It costs $4.99 (before taxes) and I have to wait a week instead of an hour for these pictures, haha

Dinner (Sheperd's Pie? by Maxime and Cynthia, since they were house managers...the tofu version was interesting...)/Free time...I chatted with Rebecca for a bit, which lead to me showing her my first email (the one bitching about Zach)...she was reading it and laughing at the same time (it's even funnier in our situation because we know each other) when Cheryl and Zach came in, trying to see what's so funny. So yeah...Zach starts reading the email...it was interesting to see his expression, and Rebecca simply couldn't stop laughing at this awkward situation. But it really didn't matter for me, because I got to know Zach better and my opinion on him changed quite a bit (and I told him that too as he was reading it)...but yeah everyone got a laugh out of it and they were all wondering what other crap I said about them in my emails ;). Maybe it's a good thing that Zach read the email because now we are both clear in where we stand and i don't know, that was sort of a bonding situation for both of us (although he may not agree).

Afterwards I chatted on the phone with Aaron for a bit, told him what happened (he got a laugh out of it, while the Katimavik crew listened in the conversation and laughed)...at one point Zach even come up to me as I was talking on the phone and said very loudly, "Hello I am Zach, and I hate Angel"....hahahahaha....things settled down, talked until 11:30 pm, and then went to bed

Short email eh? Another day of full burst email the next day...
