I love the people I work with. I made oatmeal the other day and a guy who sits a few pods down from me came over and said it smelled like a chocolate bar. He said it was the one with the spongy stuff in the centre. I said “Crunchie?” He said he didn’t think so. I Googled it on my iPhone and showed it to him. To make up for his wrongness, he picked me up a Crunchie while on his break:
That’s his Donkey, by the way. As I mentioned in earlier blogs, I took him away due to Donkey neglect.
Needless to say, he’s much happier now:
On the same day as the Crunchie event, I had to take little Abby to the vet for her second B12 injection. While waiting for the vet, one of the assistants helped to clean her ears, which she wasn’t too happy about. I was though, as it’s never fun to do it myself:
Poor little dirty earred goober!
I took the day off yesterday and in the morning, met up with a pilot friend for a coffee. We fed this little fella some donut crumbs, when he hopped onto the table:
So cute!
After our visit, I went over to Fitness Niagara to check out their exercise bikes. I have a recumbent bike I bought a few years ago and also picked up an upright at an auction last year. The upright no longer has any tension and the console rarely works. I figured since I exercise for about an hour almost every day (alternate from the recumbent to upright) that I might as well purchase a good one as a replacement. Actually, the price wasn’t too bad and I paid a little extra for them to assemble and deliver it to my apartment. Looking forward to trying it out on Thursday.
Despite taking vacation yesterday, I took a couple hours this morning too (such a rebel!) I took up one of the musicians who performed at the Marcel Dionne MS fundraiser last month. He was gung ho to try aerobatics, so we did a few manoeuvers before heading over Niagara Falls. We did some more aerobatics once back at the airport, then in for a landing. He really loved the flight – or at least he said he did!
Some dude wandering by was nice enough to take our picture together.
Today’s symptoms: Felt great until about 2:00 this afternoon, then I crashed. I think it was just because of the RAA meeting last night, plus the exciting flight today. Well worth it though!
