Sorted Out

184 pounds this morning at 5:00 am. The stress of running around doing the Akaitcho report on Monday and packing and cleaning (so Lila won't think I'm a pig when she drops off the mail)

In Edmonton Airport right now. Got things sorted out with Sh last night (jig was up once the web cam came on). I will stay at Lonsdale Lodge. Glad that is sorted out. Not exactly sure how to pay for it.

Couldn't find a guitar I couldn't live without at Avenue Guitars in Edmonton. Still "Hank's" in London but I suspect I will at the end of it not spend so much more money for a guitar that only provides me a minimal more "feel" and sound.

Was playing the old guitar down in the departure level. Trying to remember all the songs I use to play when I was 18 years old and working as a dishwasher in Jasper Park Lodge. Early Morning Rain, etc.

Going to make the "thin sparkling tears" story run backwards ... focus more on the flipped out policeman.

Book Shelves

186 pounds this morning. 60 minutes and 897 calories on the elliptical machine at the gym. Ranu said I look different (must be the Grecian). Quarreling with her. Timely anyway.

Sa with a story about how she broke up a dinner date combo. Bit shocking.

To buy a new guitar or not. Probably not.

Finally put up my last two books shelves after 6 months. Looks better.

Go in to the office for a bit tomorrow to finish a few things off. Walked over today to Canadian Tire to buy a can of spray paint. Want to spray something on my bag so I can pick it out easier. Also, went to the big Extra Foods. Got some things to take to England (seems I have been doing that for a while). Bought some high quality t-shirts, for example, last weekend. Two more days. Still nothing from Sh.

Found out that the Guardian sponsored Hay Book Festival is on exactly while I am there. Over in Wales. May toodle over there with my sweety for a few days, if that is possible. Bought a book by Mark Billingham who was mentioned in the Hay Festival program guide.

One Week

One week and I get on the airplane for London.

750 calories in the morning and after work. 186 pounds. Should drop a few more by next Tuesday. Luckily the gym is open on the Monday, even though it is Victoria Day and so a holiday.

Snappish email from Sa.

Trying to arrange a mailbox are us mail box in London.

I went to the post office. They keep parcels a month now.

Two trips to the gym today. 750 calories at both goes. Finishing the second one at 6:00 pm or so was not easy.

Problems with Lucas, according to Ranu. Sent some money.

Paper letter to my sweetheart Shaunett.

Racey

189 pounds. Alright.

Have a ticket now to see my sweetheart on May 25th. Nothing can stop me, short of death or prison. Soon I will have my baby in my arms again.

Yesterday I had three emails from my baby. As many as in the whole month before.

Have to get tickets for the Keats House lecture. Maybe a trip to Amsterdam?
