Sun, Dec 10th

Not much to update ye folk on this week. One major update though is the fact that I quit my job. I really couldn't handle it anymore, it was completely doing my head in. I just couldn't stand it and the work was just piling up and up. I handed in my notice on Wed and said i'd be leaving on Friday. They sure weren't happy with that. It was almost comical how pissed off they were in fact. Screw em, I don't have any regret. They deserved it. So back looking for work. I got a call to do 3 days temp work next week. It's just gonna be mundane mailing duties but that's exactly what I could do with around now. And its in the Directors Guild of Canada, so I might accidentally leave a few screenplays lying around the offices. I'd really be happy to just do temp work from here on out as its always nice easy work for a few days. Will see how it goes.

As for the rest of the week, same ol story i'm afraid. Went skating most evenings after work. Don't think i'm improving much these days. Maybe just a very little bit each time. I'm definitely getting better at avoiding people who cut me off, so I guess I have better control of the skates then I did. Still struggling big time with the backwards skating though. Not really getting anywhere with that. Also having a bit of difficulty with the skid stopping as whilst practicing that, you tend to fall over quite a bit. Still really enjoying it though and it's wearing me out so must be good exercise.

Even the weekend was relatively quiet. Just went out on the Sat night with Glen, Jamie and Paul as Angela and Kelly were still away on their trip East. After a few crap pubs and clubs early on we went to one of our reliable pubs which was great fun. Serious lack of photos taken this week as well i'm afraid.

Angela & Kelly came back a night early from their trip so they were back on Sun night. Kelly is flying home on Wed so we'll have to give her a send off on Tues night. Won't have any bother doing my temp work hungover so that's a plus. Will report if it goes that smoothly, next week.

Bye bye crappy Royal Bank of Canada (brown building)

Here's the infamous hostel where I spend an awful lot of my time/money (all the blue and beige building)

Down to the ice rink for another lovely day's worth of skating

Thought I was still drunk when I saw this fella on the ice. He had free chocolate though.
