Pardon me?

One of our great volunteers came into the office today so I went to the Tim Horton's drive thru to grab him a coffee as a thank you. No worries right? Well... all is normal except for the incredibly 'creative' guy who had a foreign car that he drove backwards through the drive thru so he could access the window. 

About ten car lengths there was a driver reversing it backwards. You should have seen the looks... or the even more incredulous looks as this guy was reversing it, and then taking breaks to have kissey-poo moments with his girlfriend. 

All the sudden I feel SO normal. It's amazing how little it takes!

Flittering around!

I just went to a conference and there was a Dress Up as your Favorite Literary Character party. Talk about stress! Thankfully a co-worker came to my rescue with a Tinkerbell costume.

Here's what I learned as Tinkerbell:
  • people want you to grant them a wish
  • you can blame the fact that you are a 'wide-load' coming through on your wide-span wings
  • sitting on chairs is a tad more challenging
  • it's definitely a whack-load of fun to pretend to be someone who is very sparkly
If you'll excuse me, I might just put on my wings for a fun time vacuuming my house.
