It's sunny again today. Unbelievably, it's been two days in a row! At least today, I remembered the sunscreen...

I find it ironic that my last post talked of having more fun yet in the days following that post, I spent most of the time either tending to my long list of things to do (stuff like laundry, cooking, cleaning, finances, etc) or watching tv. I cannot say that it was the slightest bit fun catching up on all of those things and with my new "plan", I'll be more careful not to let huge projects accumulate as well as not going nuts with the spending thing. I know I've said this before but I just have to get serious about sticking to the plan. Which probably means that I'll be having less fun than I've been having lately. Sometimes it sucks being an adult but I suppose it's about time...

In the meantime, I will take a few minutes to share something that happened:

Yesterday, while having coffee with a friend, I saw David Suzuki wandering through the streets of Victoria's Chinatown. I don't think that he was here for a presentation, so I guess he was just wandering around. It's funny who one sees when they go somewhere that they don't usually spend time. Had my favourite Chinese restaurant not been closed, I wouldn't have seen him.

Was it a coincidence that I was thinking about sunburn (due to my lack of sunscreen) and saw David Suzuki at the same time? I had been thinking that it was pretty warm yesterday and saw a woman who could have been me because she was pretty close to being the same colour as a lobster... It was freaking hot in that cafe.

There's only 15 more days until the Björk concert! I looked at my calendar and was amazed that it was so close. It seems like it's been forever since I bought the tickets...

I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome Tee back to Victoria. I know I said it yesterday but it's good to have him back - if only for 12 days - and I sincerely hope that he is successful in taking care of everything that he needs to while he's here. He knows what will happen if he doesn't. (insert happy face here)

Anyway folks, have a great day!

Wait, isn't fun just a state of mind? One can have 'fun' while washing dishes, doing laundry, etc. No?

Yeah, no? I agree! :-) Tho I do agree that by you doing all these other non-fun things, they only make the fun things later, well, more fun! I'm silly! hehe!

Well, I suppose that something to strive for Robert... Happiness whilst doing housework... Hmmm novel concept. Actually, doing laundry makes me feel much more productive because I can do that and other things at the same time.

Yes. I expect that things will get done once I get things done.
