Tatiana's Wanderings

I showered today before going out briefly at 8:15 on a 407 to get bulk pads x2 at London Drugs, which is of course sold out of hand sanitizer. They seemed to have a decent supply of toilet paper and Wet ones and other Lysol / Clorox products, though. Got home just now at 8:40 on another 407. They also had pistachio Lindt truffles - ick! Canada also had its first death from coronavirus today, in a North Van care home.


Pistachio Lindt truffles!

From Julie M. and Make A Meme: The Grim Reaper says, "Two things that never get old are dark humor and unvaccinated children."

After FINALLY finding my Press-It-Seal-It envelopes in a Snapware container and then putting them in the index cards bag, I went to the pharmacy next door at 2 to get some new Tylenol Extra Strength Complete Cold, Cough, and Flu - my existing box expired last month (September 2019), but it was the only thing I had last night, and it seemed to be okay to take when I looked it up online. Shouldn't have lost too much potency! They had a new trainee there, but Adam helped us both - just a packaging change, but the same drug ID number. Then I went to H&M to get a new red sweatshirt for $33 (damn toothpaste stains!), which was fine. I saw ANGEL CHEN sweatshirts for $40, but that was because they had DRAGON STITCHING on the sleeve!

Then I bused to London Drugs (one stop - but I needed the rest) to get on-sale pads x2 / NEW Live Clean foaming hand soap x3 (White Tea Cherry / Vanilla Bean Coconut / Lemon Mint), NEW $2 Weinrich's Porta chocolate bars x4 for Jon's birthday (Peppermint / Raspberry / Blueberry / Strawberry) / Dare Breton Veggie Bites (bite-sized crackers for Beckett!) for Thanksgiving dinner / Kortari kitchen scissors for the desk. Got home at 4:25 on a 407, whereupon I cancelled my appointment with Rishu because I still need to rest.

( NEW hand washes and such! Chrysanthemum, right?! )

It's TACO DAY today! I had some coffee and biscotti before going out to see Rishu at her new Viking Way location. (401 / 407 AND the 405?!) I was really late, no thanks to it being past Cambie and Jacombs AND the confusing nature of the bus stops at Bridgeport and Viking Way! After SHOWER TIME and MORE COFFEE TIME when I FINALLY got home at 2:40 after refilling my prescription at the pharmacy (yay for wi-fi in the building!), Deb and Dylan picked me up at 6:50 for Korean food at Han OK on Alexandra Road for my birthday. We had seafood pancake, spicy seafood tofu soup, Asahi beer, rice, tea, eggs, cheese, corn, kimchi, spicy pork, and bulgogi hot pot all makes for a yummy belated birthday dinner!

Discussed CBD oil, (medical) marijuana, Cuba, the Philippines, Filipino fried chicken, pregnancy, Vicky, depression, how technology and health has changed so much, the differences between healthcare here and in the States, iPad games and a hungry Sasquatch "finding food in garbage cans" (which reminded me of EARTHBOUND), church being so busy and how it's hard to form or maintain friendships, lots of meetings, the Cactus Club dinner, my nephews, family relationships, downtown conferences, and Elysse's pronunciation of words. No, BALLET is not BELLY DANCING! It was good to see them - they even gave me some assorted Lindt chocolates in a light blue gift bag?! NO WAY! They drove me home at 9:10, which seemed to be a bit late for the kids, especially since they got up at 5:30 to 7 AM!

What's with suddenly making my pics disappear within 0.1 seconds of adding a new tag, Facebook?!




I'm now Pumpkin Flam Hammy in my friend Shiwa's Discord server!




Assorted Lindt chocolates! Red milk chocolate, gold white chocolate, blue dark chocolate, and bronze hazelnut Lindt chocolates!

Today is Humility Day!


Terry Tickhell Terrell?!




From Julie: Crabrill Senior?! So, like crabs and Brillo pads?!




From Julie: Crabrill Junior?! Why pass that name on to the next generation?!




From Julie: Uniique is Crabrill Junior's ex-girlfriend?! BAD SPELLING OF UNIQUE, which shouldn't even be a name!




From Julie: Legend?! Someone has high hopes for their son...

I took a shower, did some laundry, and had COFFEE TIME before Eric Ho texted me to cancel the BC Lions-Edmonton Eskimos hangout since he had to to stay at work till 7:30 or so. (he COULD say no, but maybe not!) "Are you coming? Yes or no." "Yeah, I have to stay a bit later, so text you later since I have to take a raincheck on the hangout." Fine, I'll just use my $10 off coupon by myself with no heavy things! I went to London Drugs first at 3:10 to get four DEFINITE big reusable bags (I only had four small ones?!), a dark green MARTEX bath towel, a shopping cart with a cooler bag ($54.99 to $24.99 SALE!), and two more London Naturals foam scour sponges.

Luckily, I was able to sort of tuck the cart under my arm and then waited for the bus home - got there at 4:05 on a 401. Later, I went to Price Smart with my $10 coupon at 5:35 on a 401. I got Halo Top birthday cake ice cream, NEW Sapporo Ichiban Tonkotsu ramen noodles, NEW Maynards Fuzzy Peach popsicles, NEW Maynards Swedish Berry popsicles, NEW Magnum white ice cream bars, NEW Magnum Double Cookies and Cream ice cream bars, NEW Magnum double cherry truffle ice cream bars, NEW Magnum Infinity Chocolate ice cream bars, NEW Magnum double raspberry ice cream bars, NEW Magnum strawberries and cream ice cream bars, BIG on-sale Lysol lemon wipes, Maggi curry noodles, and Olay cooling white strawberry and mint bar soap.
