NOT MISSING VANCOUVER ONE BIT

Even though its an astoundingly beautiful day, we are still very happy we are not living over here in Vancouver anymore.  The traffic is insane.  And there are just too many people with attitudes.  But, that being said, it is so beautiful here.  No other city shines up as nicely as Vancouver does when that sun comes out.

We came over on the ferry at one yesterday and drove Cookie home.  We had such a good time and didn't even get an eighth of what we wanted to do done.  She is going to have to come back over and over.

  She did introduce us to two of her friends, one works at the Costco beside us.  They were the most awesome couple of people I have met in a very long long time.  I have a feeling something special happened and we are going to enjoy and benefit from this new friendship for a long time to come.  We met them at Starbucks and sat there for two and a half hours, talking talking talking!  One of them is a manager of the food court in Costco and his husband is about to start a new job at Opus!!!  They are both gifted artists, they are even having a showing for all of August! I can't wait to introduce April to them.  We could have talked for another five hours!!!

Today I went to the fat lady store and saw a few of my friends there.  Caught up on all the news.  I also found an awesome new bunch of tights, the fat lady's answer to difficult dressing!  I also found another amazing sweatshirt etc…  Then I went and had a tedious 3 hour hair appointment (shovel list).  Now I smell like rotten eggs and for the next three weeks my hair will look like a brillo pad covered in mould.  It should die down by the time we leave for our trip on the twelfth of Feb.  Should.

Next, after I beat my hair into submission and change into better smelling clothes, we are off to dine on Peking Duck with Aryn and Bradley.  He just received his permanent residency!!!!!  And I am gathering there shall be a little imbibing of the magical liquids tonite as they have asked us to pick them up and drive them to the restaurant!  Spod will have to restrain himself tonight!  

So I am signing off.  I shall do another post tomorrow night if there is anything to say. TTYL
