It's only Wednesday already?

Lack of sleep overnight made me cranky and sullen. I needed to read and get a something to drink. The 2nd book in “The Space Wolf” Omnibus is picking up. Way more dialogue and I’m enjoying this.

On the job last night the shift was slow. Super divided the room up 3 ways: The front 21 was more or less full doing CF Calgary. HO isn’t doing it because their doing (USS) CRF taps from our efforts calling cold. Then in the back about 8 of them were doing ASRAB.

Last night Anne went to the Empire half price Tuesday movies. For $6 she got popcorn a candy bar and a card from Empire’s recent “Songo.ca” music file system for 3 free downloads. Not bad. I’m looking forward to seeing “Surrogates.” I think it’s out now. But their half price Tuesdays are a pretty good deal. It’s not like the good old days where movies were $2 even though movies were about $8.

I called Anne after the shift with my bag of empties and let her know I was on my way home. I got home to an empty house and fired up the computer. I heard this crash from the balcony. Immediately I’m thinking the birdcage. Sure enough it fell off it’s stand. I panicked and in a frenzy hurried to the balcony hoping Sugar was still in her cage. A wave of relief fell over me. What happened? I have no idea. But that table she uses for sugars cage is very unstable and I don’t like it at all.

Of course when she came home that incident developed into another one causing bad feelings as she blamed me for it. Anyways that was blown over.

I went to bed about 3:30am this morning feeling rally tired and drained but couldn’t sleep this morning even getting up at 1pm.

I got another reply from the New Westminster public Library about the New Courthouse under construction email correspondence I’m having with one of their librarians and archivists. She said to have the photo emailed to me costs $10 but it’s not a very good photo. She said it was dated February 16th 1979. I wonder where it was taken? My guess from the best vantage point possible, the flat roof (then) of the Bench & Gavel building. I replied back asking how I can pay for this photo without a credit card and my Bench and Gavel inquiry. So far no reply yet. But this confirms some suspicions I have about the area and that the New Courthouse (NC) was under construction in 1979 and she said February 16th. It was being built throughout most of 1979 and all of 1980. It was opened in September 1981. The whole process from February 16th 1979 September 1981 a total of 32 months. Almost 3 years, so chances are this photograph could be of the parkade being ripped apart and the surrounding sidewalk protective covering and possibly equipment in a muddy field. I’d love to have this photo.

So tonight I’m in for another 4 hours of most likely CRF. Tonight is the 6/49 $14M draw.

Other then this, not much going on. I’m about to have some lunch and then it’s off to my 4 hours. Already it’s been a long week and it’s only Wednesday.

Anyway gang, that’s about all for now
