Today was most interesting.
I hardly got any sleep last night, waking up just past 4 and not getting back to sleep until just after 6, only to get up at 6:30. I was so hungry, then I realized I hadn't eaten since yesterday lunch.
Sometimes customers just don't know how good they have it.
Everything is set for tomorrow night's festivities. Fondue night at Lisa's. We're starting with the cheese, then beef, followed by chocolate. It should be very yummy.
I had to put my foot down tonight with Ilona. Since I'll already be at Lisa's preparing for the stuff, she thought I could pop up to Markham and pick her up. What am I a taxi service? No. It's not like I'm picking up Rob who lives 2 minutes away from my place. It would a 20 minute drive in the total opposite direction to pick her up, then another 20 minute drive back. I gave her directions on how to get there by bus & told her to call me from the corner and I'd pick her up.
I'm also not very impressed with being volunteered to help Ron move. He's gone and bumped up his moving date from this Saturday, to New Year's Day. Common curtesy would dictate that you ask the person you want help, not tell them they're helping. Ever since I helped my friend Julie move one day, I've hated helping people move. I remember the day she was moving houses, the movers were coming in about 2 hours, and she'd not started to pack anything. My experience is that it's always more than what they tell you it's going to be, their stuff is never usually ready. We'll see how I feel on the 1st and then decide if I'm going to help. In general, people shouldn't be presumptuous. My rant for the night.
