I'm alive! Busy days recently. More posts to follow. Summary:

- 5 days teaching in Halifax, some Pride activities
- drove to Lac Montjoie in Québec, camped for the weekend, rowed a lot
- drove to Mississauga for Monday and Tuesday, took a CTT+ course, had fun
- drove to IKEA, purchased some missing parts they never gave us, learned how to return all the extra parts they did give us

Now I'm very tired. I deserve a break today.

I deserve a break today

Have a Kit-Kat, preferrably the peanut butter kind.

I'm reading Tokyo Cancelled. I'm on the third story and I can't decide whether I like it or not. Have you continued to read it or is it one of those books you'll only pick up when the desire strikes you?

I'm on the seventh story now. It still keeps me interested, but as I don't have much time to read unless I'm on a plane (last week) or train (next week) or sitting in a car (last weekend), I can't really predict when I'll finish it. :)

Are you *sure* they were all extra parts??? ;-)

Don't even go there. Building an IKEA kitchen is very frustrating. I normally love putting together IKEA stuff, and have no problem with it. But the way they do the kitchen is you get ~100 boxes, all completely independent items, each (or most) with their own instructions for individual assembly. But (for example) each drawer is a separate unit, and the cross-beam that goes underneath some drawers, and so forth, with no master instruction set that tells you where each thing is going in your kitchen. Somethings have no instructions at all.

The extra items are 95% likely to be extras. I plan to get that up to 99% before returning them. :)
