I showered and then had to do MORE laundry on the third floor because my grey sweatshirt somehow got damp from laying it on the carpet!

Edit at 12:10 AM - Paulo came over at 11:55, and has already found TWO dead mice on glue traps in the corner! No wonder I smelled something decomposing last week! I also got him to replace my old shower curtain from 2010 or so, since it had mold. We talked about the Canadian coronavirus cases, and there are a lot in Quebec and Ontario! There are definitely ten cases at Richmond Hospital, from what he's been told! Everything has indeed been shut down - not even the families can visit because they'll go outside and pick up germs, which won't be very good for those patients! He recommended I replace my Splashee Softee taupe bath mat since the tread seems to be gone, and I might slip. Probably a good idea for the future! I should have gotten him to check the other corner, but things seem okay right now. I definitely had rubber gloves, Kleenex, plastic bags, and a garbage bag at the ready! When he left just now, I thanked him.

I went out at 6:20 for more grocery shopping at Price Smart and London Drugs: Western Family baked beans x4 (tomato sauce / maple syrup / pork and tomato sauce / pork and molasses), Heinz baked beans with chili spice, Heinz Spaghetti, Kraft Dinner x2 for macaroni and cheese (Extra Creamy and Underwater Shapes), Old Dutch Foods Canada thin and twisted pretzels, Knorr Garlic Butter and Lemon Sidekicks, a Splash foliage shower curtain and Splash shower curtain hooks (which I should have bought in February so Chinese Eric could have helped me with that BEFORE current events), two Martex / Bamboo white towels, and All-Bran Canada Buds! Got home at 7:25 and did some laundry.


Bamboo face cloths, hand towels, and bath towels!




Beans and pretzels, oh my! )

I slept so much today! Woke up at 9, but had to rest till 10:45. Then I felt a bit under the weather, and had to sleep from 3:10 to 6:05! At least redrum seems to be subsiding for now...

I took in the BO HORVAT CAPTAINCY / 50TH SEASON CEREMONY without any incessant talking, which was a win! The Canucks played the Kings at 7 tonight as a throwback to 1970, and won 8-2! Kirk McLean, Stan Smyl, both Sedins, and Todd Bertuzzi were there, but it was so understandable that Trevor Linden wasn't.

Today is Bastille Day! I showered today - yup, I'll be at Jon's tomorrow at about 2:30 or so.


Happy Kampire?! (happy camper)




From Candy: Chicken rude and unreasonable?! I think they meant to translate "Jerk Chicken" on this menu...




From Julie M. and Only In Canada: "I really like bothering people outside Ontario and Quebec by posting pictures of bagged milk because the concept is so foreign to them and they go crazy." I actually remember bagged milk from my early 80s childhood here in BC! You had to cut the corner of the bag after putting it in the milk jug!

The Canucks played the Sharks at 6 tonight, and lost 4-0. I wondered about Melker Eriksson's name, but Behind the Name says it's the Swedish form of Melchior. Neat factoid there!


From Julie: London is a girl's name?! It should be a PLACE NAME ONLY!




From Julie: LaPiffany?! Why not just Tiffany?!




From Julie: Lavelle?! Reminds me of Laval, Quebec!




From Julie: China is a black woman's name?! Again, it should be a PLACE NAME ONLY!




From Julie: Kidd is a black woman's name?!

Marc-Edouard Vlasic plays for the San Jose Sharks?! Does this Croatian have any connection to the Vlasic pickle family?!




From Not Always Hopeless and Very Demotivational: Jesus is riding a dinosaur. This renders your argument invalid.




From Julie: Errek Jett?! I've heard of Erik and Erick, but WHAT?!




From LiveJournal: A blue road sign saying, "The Removal of Hell Rocks is Prohibited."

Julie said that she got my stuff today, so of course I had to chase people down and go into that Eastern Conference chat to see if Jimmy got his stuff, sent when I was feeling fine about our friendship or whatever. He had, and merely thanked me.


DO NOT TELL ME WHAT TO DO! )


From Not Always Right: Phi-Anh Young?! She's not even Vietnamese, so she can't have this name! :P

I also bought new size 10 Jockey underwear at the Bay... luckily for me, it was on sale! Barry saw me on my way to the bus stop, and honked - I had to go around to the car's window in order to recognize him! I got home at 11:35 on a 407, which is fine. More time to do stuff for me!

From November 17, 2017: Discord, you're supposed to be professional. Hire a damn proofreader if "where / were" and "effect / affect" are too much for you!

I got up at 5:45 AM - UGH! COFFEE TIME BY DEFAULT! Teunis emailed me back to wonder about the nearby mall's hours - maybe he means Richmond Centre, I don't know. He's also one of those weird people who refers to his wife as his partner, but I can deal with that. I found an old spiderweb by the bathroom, so I got two Kleenexes to scoop it up before flushing that down the toilet. Then I put my bath mat through the washing machine, which seemed to be fine afterwards: I didn't even have to dry the thing since it wasn't overly wet later! Then I protected myself with a scarf, rubber gloves, and plastic bag against a mousetrap with.... wood shavings and a very old tiny gingerbread man on it. Okay then. That's enough housecleaning for today!


From Not Always Right: Anisha Cooper?!




From my FAST-ACTING LONG-LASTING Bathroom Reader #18: Treat Williams?!




From Not Always Learning: Brandice Nelson?!




There's a town called Saint-Louis-du-Ha!-Ha! in Quebec...

I went out at 2:40 to get more on-sale President's Choice Blue Menu Six Bean Medley cans at Shoppers Drug Mart as long as they're still 99 cents! The pharmacist next door recognized me and waved at me, so we chatted briefly while waiting for the light to change. Yeah, Richmond smells like shit again today! I got six cans of beans, two on-sale Brookside dark chocolate bags (mango-mangosteen / pomegranate), eight 99-cent White Cheddar and Broccoli Sidekicks (all the available stock on the shelf like last time!), and an on-sale Speed Stick Irish Spring original deodorant before getting home at 3:25 on a 407.

From Janina and Whisper: It disgusts me every time I hear girls talk about how expensive they want their engagement rings to be. A man is offering his life to you, and you're worried about a hunk of carbon on a metal circle.




From Engrish.com and Library of Most Controversial Files: If you are stolen, call the police at once. This is from the Urban Mass Transportation Branch Shanghai Public Security Bureau.




From Reddit: Millie-Ribbon and Mollie-Ribbon Curtis are twins?! At least they were born on September 17, my birthday! HAHAHA!
