Tatiana's Wanderings

After I had COFFEE TIME, Barry picked me up at 11:50 and we went banking and to Price Smart. I bought a NEW on-sale Caramilk chocolate bar and a half, NEW Triscuit dill / sea salt / olive oil crackers, NEW Triscuit Canada balsamic and basil crackers, NEW basil and garlic Triscuits crackers, Ottogi Jin Ramen in both spicy and mild flavors, NEW Western Family chicken and wild / brown rice soup, NEW Western Family chicken and rotini soup, NEW Western Family soy sauce x2 (regular and 50% less sodium), NEW DASANI water (after the soy sauce attacked me), a NEW HERSHEY'S Gold chocolate bar (peanuts and pretzels), Western Family 8-vegetable lasagna with multigrain pasta (carrots / green and red Bell peppers / spinach / zucchini / cauliflower / broccoli / black olives), on-sale Olympic Dairy organic plain yogurt.

Also bought bananas, on-sale Excel Gum in peppermint flavor x3, NEW Shirakiku Goku-Uma tonkotsu noodles, NEW on-sale STAGG Chili Canada Steak House chili, NEW Tim Hortons canned soup x3 (Cream of Broccoli / Chicken Noodle / Chicken Rice), on-sale MilkisPH Snoopy six-pack drinks x7 (milk and yogurt in a bottle / canned melon / canned apple / canned banana / canned mango / canned peach / canned original), Western Family prune nectar, on-sale NEW O'Tasty vegetable / pork / black mushroom dumplings or potstickers, Joy Chinese Dim Sum dumplings x4, and Silk Canada almond milk! After that, I paid my Shaw bill online at home.

Later, I tried to get Hester to give me some laundry tokens (March 26, 2019). She said that they were going out right now, but I could have some if I came by immediately. So I did, but she was STILL not impressed because I should have taken the "nearest" stairs so she wouldn't have to wait three minutes, which is apparently an inconvenience. Well, maybe she should work on the building's elevator which has been out of service for five weeks, and replacing the dryer which has been out of commission for three months! Then when I left her door, she said that I should take the "nearest" stairs - no, because I'd still have to walk down a long hallway regardless! I told her NO! I'm going to do what works best for me, and it's just TOO BAD if my disability and walking speed causes her to wait a few more minutes to leave the building since they haven't invented teleportation for real yet! The Canucks played the Senators again tonight at 7 in Preseason Game #7 (the penultimate!), and lost 6-2.


From Julie M. and Introvert Spring: If I am silent, it's because there's thunder inside me. Or I'm just chilling - it depends. May the odds be ever in your favor.




( Soup, perogies, and Milkis galore! )

I showered and did laundry today. Mom and Dad dropped by at 3:35, and thank goodness that was ALL it was! No, I didn't need to split a $50 bill at the bank since the nearby Coast Capital ATM gives out $50 bills!


Random stuff from Mom and Dad: $50 from Great-Aunt in Hong Kong, powdered Nestlé Coffeemate sachets x3 / instant coffee sachet that EXPIRED in November 2018, THE SWORD OF IMAGINATION: MEMOIRS of a HALF-CENTURY OF LITERARY CONFLICT by Russell Kirk / THE BOOK OF BEEB: FOUR NOVELS IN ONE VOLUME by Frederick Buechner (both from Auntie Brenda), a wooden beaded necklace, veggie rice / roast beef / turkey leftovers from Easter Monday dinner, a thin fuzzy blue zippered San Francisco jacket, three new pairs of white-and-grey No-Show sports socks, a random white face cloth, a random pair of thin grey socks, a thin pink Van Heusen T-shirt with a ridiculous neckline even for an XL size, two wrapped white hotel shower caps, random Chinese body lotion, a Canadian Tire plastic bag, two random plastic bags, a Safeway plastic bag, a blue Princess Cruises tote bag, and a random pair of white and grey socks.

Also got a new grey Joe Boxer "WILD AND FREE" tank top, a blue and tan Chinese PVC purse, a President's Choice Deluxe Cheddar macaroni and cheese box, two random unwrapped white soap bars, new thin lavender Chinese panties from Qian Yi Ting, cougar print panties, thin black lacy panties, four white unwrapped Elemis soap bars, a white wrapped random Chinese soap bar, four random Chinese dental kits with thin toothbrushes and a tiny tube of Chinese A.ME toothpaste, another tiny tube of Chinese A.ME toothpaste, two 50 mL bottles of Elemis "Revitalize Me" hand and body lotion ("Time To Spa!"), Japanese Rashima roasted seaweed x4, Premium Pu Erh tea bags x3, Premium Green Tea bags x4, and a random Narita Airport receipt from Terminal 1 News.

After COFFEE TIME, Barry picked me up at 10:15 so we could finally go to Dr. Wise's office downtown for my eyeball ultrasound follow-up: MORE PAPERWORK AND APPOINTMENTS! We discussed my nephews, therapy, serial killers using white vans, Ted Bundy, the Green River Killer, Paul Bernardo, BTK, and more. When I got home at 12:25 (after Barry went into "robot mode" and blamed jet lag from Japan), I chilled for a bit. I'll have to go to Dr. Wise's office again for another follow-up appointment on November 29 because of my dense cataract needing to be measured by the UBC Eye Care Clinic on Willow Street. AIYA!

Then I called Barry about my successful Nov. 15 appointment rescheduling with the UBC Eye Care Centre when I called them about it at 1:40. It'll be at 9:15 AM on November 15 [which means he has to pick me up at 8:30 AM because of rush hour] instead of 3:30 PM on the same day. That works better with his scheduling because the Pathways office closes at 4. At least I had a lot of time to write out my plans on index cards and my Wordpress Drafts, plus message CANUCKS NATION about it without other people wanting my attention RIGHT NOW! If it weren't for that, things might be better in that way, but Jimmy IS a narcissist...

Later, I went to London Drugs on a 401 at 5:55 for replacement Garnier Fructis orange Marula Oil shampoo and conditioner / Ivory original body wash, and a purple replacement LifeCandy shower pouf. I also bought two red $2 Cannon / Grand Patrician MARTEX washcloths, on-sale Brookside Chocolate bars x2 for Jon's birthday in November (Roasted Almond and Sea Salt / Cranberry Almond with Blood Orange Flavor), Waterbridge Connoisseur Premium Liqueur chocolate brandy beans (Christmas stuff on sale at the stores already before Halloween...), bulk Always pads, original Dawn dish detergent, and Purell hand sanitizer x3 before getting home at 6:45 on a 407. My first actual shopping trip to London Drugs / this particular London Drugs store after certain things have happened! Woo!


From Wesley and Meaty Chunks of Life: Obama and Putin need a visit from Dr. Phil already! Putin: "He doesn't cuddle anymore..." Obama: "Because you keep stealing the covers, bitch!"
