I need my book back from Natasha! She has absconded (and by that I mean disappeared with) my copy of The Namesake. I don't know who she thinks she is! I lend her a book and she just keeps the thing for eternity. She's such a prat!
I am currently at work, thinking about how I would rather be in Mexico or someplace equally warm. It is snowing again today (for the 4th day straight) and I'm so fucking sick of it! If only global warming was more dependable! I'd be all for it if it meant no more fucking winter in Calgary. I like the city and I have family here so moving to LA or Houston is not really an option for me, hence my best bet is that Global Warming hurries and does its thing. I mean how long does it take? All I need is a 10 degree Celsius increase (across the board, not average!).
Stupid Global Warming anyhow! Why can't the radical climate changes be more dependable?

Here's the deal, I'm leaving for a very short Vacation in Kelowna Wednesday night. I am looking forward to seeing my aunt, uncle and all my cousins, and I'm also looking forward to sleeping as much as humanly possible. I have a sinus plug-up and I can't breathe when I'm asleep. This means that I will sleep for 9 hours or so and not feel like I got any sleep at all. On Saturday last I didn't wake up until 4 pm (of course I had been plastered the night before).
Can someone tell me what the best medicine is for clearing your sinuses? And just so we're clear, illegal drugs are not an option.

I went to see the Namesake yesterday with my sister. This is an adaptation to screen of the novel (same name) by Jhumpa Lahiri.
I was impressed by the movie, very impressed, and I am recommending it to anyone I come across. It is well done. I have not yet read the book, so I have no idea if it runs true to the original vision of Ms. Lahiri. I own the book and I will read it soon and comment on that as well.
Many of you may also note that I recently changed jobs. I am no longer in the employ of Man-gina Construction. They canned me three days into my notice period. I am now employed by a much better construction company. Elan Construction is a fine company to work for so far (I've been here one week) and I am enjoying the change in scenery and pay that comes with my new position.
I have time to post a Blog now because none of the projects that I am to be working on are yet in full swing. As soon as I am busy again you won't hear from me for another 3 or 4 months.
Cheers for now,
