Well, so much for my last entry’s high note. Being Friday didn’t stop my car
from breaking down on the way home (one of the apparently important
hoses decided to die, leaving me with nothing in my radiator). So my Friday
was spent putting water in the thing, and putting a temporary hose on there,
and Saturday was spent finding a ’87 323 in the Wreakers, pulling it off (ripping
skin off my arm in the process), and putting it in my car. Seems to be working
ok though.
Yesturday was nice…. picked up Pam after work, went hiking up to a place called
Cascade Falls… hiked up there and vegged in the river. This was followed by a
movie (Four Weddings and a Funeral) and pizza. Picked up Independance Day
for $8.99 too. All in all a nice day. Today after my half day of work I
going to head up to Sumas mountain to do some climbing with Darren and Trevor
(Pali from #north). Hopefully Pam can find a sitter for her little brother and
she can go to.
I’ve been riding my bike every day since I brought it out… my sore butt
can testify to that. On the advice from a friend Mike
from Calgary, I got a gel seat. He suggested either the gel seats or the seat
covers. However, the covers were $30 and the whole seats were $20, go figure.

Oh yea! My roomate seems to have agreed to try having a kitten…. so when
Pam’s get old enough I’m gonna get one! Course, they were laughing at me
because I killed all my fish, but I told them that cats are very hard to kill.
I’m excited about this, except for the piddling on the floor, cleaning the litter
box, hair all over the place and scratching of furniture. I’ve even picked
out the one I want, it’s a little tabby whose face is more white than the others,
giving it a "snow tiger" look (or it did when it was young). Now to
find a really cool name…
