Hey, I actually did go to church today...forgot, busy day! I told SDA Lady that I'd enjoy going to church with her one Saturday to see what her church services were like. She, of course can't, due to work so I said I'd check one out myself. I love going to different services of different denominations. I've been to Pentecostal, evangelical, liberal, new age, I've even been to the Catholic church a few times and had no idea what I was doing, I just did what they did except at communion cuz I know if you aren't Catholic you aren't supposed to take communion. You can get a blessing from the Priest but I passed. Anyway, SDA Lady told me about a church she used to go to sometimes, so I had a couple of hours before cleaning to kill and went. I was doing fine until the footwashing ceremony...huh? I texted SDA Lady "Hey, what's a footwashing ceremony and how do I get out of it...awkward!" She replied to just stay in my seat and no one would bother me. So I did and listened to the children's story, I'm a child at heart anyway so it all worked out. The only other glitch is when they all dropped from the pews onto their knees for prayer, caught me a little off guard! But, it was interesting and very conservative. I knew all the hymns so that was nice. So that concludes my religious adventure for today. I should do a travel show on PBS only it would be churches instead. So it's dinner at 6:00 pm with one of my best girls!. Everything done except the bathrooms...they'll wait...and wait...
I had a wonderful dinner with daughter. We went to a Greek restaurant which she likes but hasn't been to for a while. D18 is a wonderful dinner companion, from the time she steps into the car she's talking. We had a nice discussion about school, university, the upcoming prom, world events etc. She's decided to go to university here in Toronto (hooray, says Dad lol). We had a nice meal and nice conversation, glad I thought of it
So tired today! All my running around the past few weeks has worn me down a little. I'm taking Thursday and Friday off work. I was planning to go to Ottawa for the Ontario Gymnastics Championships and that's off but I decided to take a couple of my holiday days anyway. This place is a pain in the rear lately. I got crapped on for returning from break two minutes late today...first time I've been late since who knows when (nobody mentions the fact that most days I start work 15-30 minutes early). I said "Hey, why don't you chop my head off!" That was better than the "f off" which almost left my lips lol. Last week I socialized for a couple of minutes, again, on work time. I'm such a bad boy! Everybody's getting it, not just me so I don't feel alone. Got to work this morning and before my coat was off I had to break up a screaming match between a few clients...oh happy Monday, but I shall overcome lol. Tonight is Dancing With The Stars, something to look forward to
2 minutes and they're bi!ching? Could you subtly remind them without being snide about it that you are all adults there and you put in ample time early. 2 minutes one time is not going to make the world stop turning! Gees!

It's a bizarre place to work! Last week 2 minutes before the end of the day the boss came into my office and found me gazing into space and said "don't you ever have anything to do!" Ah yes, truly uplifting supervision methods...they bleed us with leeches if we're too out of hand lol! This too shall pass
I'm impressed! Way to go! We lucky Canadians have 2 weeks more than our American friends. I'm off to H & R Block on Wed. Finally made the appt. First time ever that Daddy the Accountant is not doing them for me.
