Romantic Getaway Long Weekend 06

Nous sommes arrivees a la Ville Marie vendredi, or better known in present day as Montreal. Its been pretty romantic, although with some disruptions from Jonathan’s work. So the only un-romantic bits have been him fixing things on the computer, defragmenting hard drives, and answering questions. But we have been able to capitalize on cuddling time so that has been amazing. You know those couples who sit on the same side in the restaurant benches (instead of across from eachother) so they can hold eachother while they eat. Yup that’s us, sorry Beth… I know those customers used to make you barf.

Yesterday we went to the Biodome, for a fun day. You can see some of our pictures on flickr. We had to wait 20 minutes in line to get in. Just when we got to the front, I was engrossed in a conversation of a new form of capitalism that was socially responsible to humans and to the environment, so I missed a couple budding in front of us. Jonathan mentioned it later to me, knowing that if he’d mentioned it at the time, I would have tore them up and sent them to the back of the line with their tails between their legs. But my romantic husband didn’t tell me and didn’t do anything about it because he a) acts very Chrisitan like and b) did not want to ruin our romantic mood. ((And yes I know him well, so I know these are the real reasons, and not any cowardly ones you maybe thinking.)) So much for my socially responsive capitalism.
Well I suppose we both balance eachother out, me enjoying confrontation maybe too much and him choosing humility most of the time.
Jonathan just got home from the bakery with fresh bagette and chocolate croissantes so I’d better go get breakfast.

I’m a bad blogger

I’ve clearly annoyed the masses with my lack of posting. Perhaps it was all a ploy to see how many people read this… or perhaps it was something far more intriguing and occuring within intense 1 hour episodes amounting to a total of one day in the life of Jack Bauer…

Or perhaps there was a series of simple busynesses (or businesses) that when applied at the same time with equal amount of pressure, to the same location, resulted in this particular blogger not getting any action for a month.

And by action, in this case I mean sweet sweet blogging action. Not “action” action, cause I got nuff o’ dat this last month.

So what have I been up to? Work. Loads and loads of work. You can begin to see the fruits of some of our labour at store.tacf.org. That will very shortly replace resources.tacf.org for a miriad of reasons which I shall let Mike Livingston point out when he comments on this post. And comment he will, because he reads this on an almost daily basis, and has thus been disapointed on an almost daily basis.

I, alternately, have been satisfied on an almost daily basis. Read: “action”.

Anyway, don’t buy anything on that store because at this stage we’ll take your money and not give you any product. Much like 1200s.com. Remember them? (Read: dirty rotten turntable swindlers.) Well, as it stands right now I have no turntables, but – mysteriously – twice my money back. I feel that I shall have the last laugh. And he who laughs last, laughs loudest. Or laughs longest.

Certainly, he (or I as the case may be) laughs the loneliest. But I shall laugh nonetheless!
