Reason #8,158,993 to hate cell phone users: Old woman announcing to everyone in the coffee shop about so and so's funeral, while sounding completely phony and insincere. "You did the best you could." "Oh that will be lovely." "I will try my darndest to make it ( Read more... )

I'm gone for the weekend, off to spend it with Leia. Tomorrow, some family reunion thing. Should be fun. I love how some of the family members treat me like a foreigner when they find out I'm Canadian. "Oh, you are Canadian, EH? Can-you-understand-what-I-am-saying?"

They must be from the US.

Yeah, Leia's American. But I try not to hold it against her ;) j/k

Agreed on the US thing. Tell them you live in an igloo and it was nice to go down south to get away from the snow and the polar bears.

Hubby and I are off to Toronto tomorrow, then flying out to the West Coast on Sunday for two weeks in BC... YAY! :) It must be a good weekend to get away. ;)

polkaroo79 August 22 2005, 18:13:50 UTC

Yeah, that's always good times :)

Have fun in BC!

Because the annoying know that living longer is the best way to maximize annoyance! :D

Ooh, have fun on your weekend of debauchery! I mean...family reunion goodness. Mm...hehehe...yeah. At least you won't get 'Ni hao' at you. Blah.

polkaroo79 August 22 2005, 18:14:09 UTC

Ni hao whu huh?

salanth August 23 2005, 04:46:48 UTC

Yeah, we're all Chinese, ya know.

polkaroo79 August 23 2005, 15:09:02 UTC

That reminds me of an old co-worker from China who was convinced everything good in the world came from China, and how white people were really Chinese. He was a bit...odd to say the least.

Hey, I'm modernizing. I just signed a 36month celphone contract. Now I'll be able to chat, drive and change lanes all without using any turn signals.

polkaroo79 August 22 2005, 18:14:27 UTC

Sweeeeeeeeet. Don't forget to go in the passing lane and slow down when making a call.

allhatnocattle August 23 2005, 05:51:21 UTC

Slow to 40 and then fiddle with the stereo. Need good background music for the phonecall to be effective.

polkaroo79 August 23 2005, 15:07:56 UTC

Wow, you got the hang of having a cellphone really quickly

xperiweb August 20 2005, 04:33:14 UTC

polkaroo79 August 22 2005, 18:14:58 UTC

Well I've been one for years, but it embarasses me to be associated with some of these wackos heh

Thanks, it was a great time. Heard about the storm, yikes.
