July LONG weekend
Well it's over. I worked four 12 hour days in a row. I enjoy working a lot, it keeps me out of trouble, and constantly working gets me in a groove that makes the job somewhat seamless. There is always something to do in a restaurant (or coffee shop, apparently), and I just keep moving. Nevertheless, I am tired and feel a little empty; I haven't had time to read or do much else but eat and sleep between shifts. It looks like my plans to pick up the guitar this summer are somewhat shot. Plus I keep getting al these ideas for art, but no time or space to put them into action. Going back to school will really be a break.
On Saturday night I went out to the bar, I actually took my bike there and back. Lots of people were there, it was general nonsense with funny glasses and everyone taking shots from these cheap 'Canada Day' shot glass necklaces. I was really wrecked; lets just say Sunday was a challenge. I think I understand how miners live; just a little.
Last night I got home and lounged in front of the TV with some chips and frozen yogurt until bed time, and woke up at 11:30 (!!) from a nostalgic, emotional and disturbing dream.
