After COFFEE TIME, I left at 3:05 on a 401 for my appointment with Dr. Ruby (which was not exactly informative - but I did get my prescription renewed), but I had to hurry back after wasting time at the Dollar Tree and Big Crazy after not being able to find Advent calendars or dumplings! I did go to Shoppers for on-sale Jamison Vitamin D3 gummies (almost half-price!), NEW Lindt Milk Mint / Hazelnut truffles, NEW Life brand echinacea x120, NEW Delecto assorted dark chocolates in a purple box, NEW Cheetos Snowflakes, and NEW Hot Cocoa Hershey's Kisses! The Canucks played Nashville today at 5, and won 6-3! FIVE POWER PLAY GOALS!

Chicken teriyaki and udon from Shoppers!

( Food and vitamins! )

From Janina: A salt rifle selling for $999 in Amarillo, Texas. It's made of Morton Salt and is definitely overpriced.

From List25: Peculiar, Missouri?!

From Youtube: Torrence White?! BAD SPELLING OF TERRENCE!

From Youtube: Nathson Fields?! Shouldn't that be NATHAN FIELDS?! He also named his daughter NATHINA...

Texted white Eric, who can give me a ride to his own birthday meal at Los Cuervos Taqueria on Sunday around Kingsway and Fraser. Phew!

Voltaire Casino?!

From Julie: When a Canadian comes to America and starts being nice, they're told, "We don't do that here."

After COFFEE TIME, I went out at 2:40 on a 407 to help with the kids, telling Jon to text me if something happened. Got there at 3:45 and discussed poop hygiene, Beckett waking up just then, paper planes, bullet trains, origami (I was just folding along with them and not caring if I was any good), babbling, outer space, fast trains, Myles and the ER, Mom not noticing certain things like the cooking soup overflowing right in front of her and making a great puddle for Beckett to crawl in, Lizst, classical music, minuets, and Beckett chewing on things.

Also talked about Mount Pleasant Park, puzzles, jumping down stairs, Beckett cruising to things aided by the couch, how to properly steer Beckett towards stuff (gentle!), Ayler's music school, bike camp, Seattle's monorail, and reading baby books to Beckett. We had salmon (Omega-3 makes you smarter!), surfboard noodles, papaya, blueberries, apples, spinach, and soup for dinner while Beckett almost got yogurt into his eye from slapping the table when he was done or feeling excited. Sure, I can come by next Monday! Got home at 9:25 after walking from Brighouse since the next 401 and 407 would come by in 20 minutes.

From This Is True: Wilvince Kemmy Bazil?!

From Julie: Two jumbo jets cracking a joke and having a good laugh at Miami International Airport.

This funny coffee mug is from "You're killin' me Smalls!" and Pete: I before E. Except when your foreign neighbor Keith receives counterfeit beige sleighs from feisty caffeinated weightlifters. Weird.

SEND NOODS on a sweatshirt, hahaha. Reminds me of my ex-friend Jimmy...

What 13 GOING ON 30 Character Are You?

You Are Matt.

You are kind-hearted and always looking to do right by people. You don’t have a mean bone in your body.
You can be indecisive at times, but it’s only because you’re so concerned with making the right decision.

You are an observer, and you believe that actions tell you a lot. You know people better than they know you.
You are more of an introvert, and because of this, you are mysterious. You keep a lot inside until you are ready to open up.

Are You a Brownie or a Cookie?

You Are A Cookie!

You are an independent and versatile person. You can roll with life's changes quite well.
You are resilient and optimistic. You see the glass of milk as half full, even if you've been burned before.

You are big on boundaries - what's yours is yours, and you aren't about to share what you have your heart set on.
That being said, you do live a life of abundance and have extra on hand for others. Who ever bakes just one cookie?

Are You Middle Class?

You Are Not Middle Class!

When it comes to social status, you are an outlier. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing at all.
You may be upper class or even out of sight rich - in which case, congratulations to you!

You may be working class or even poor, and that’s fine as well. Maybe you’re still working your way up in the world.
Or another possibility is that you’re just not willing to play the status game. No matter what, people wouldn’t call you average!

What's Your Muslim Name?

Your Muslim Name Is: Saesha Zeba!

Kindness is a mark of faith, and whoever is not kind has no faith.

Are You a Hipster or a Yuppie?

You Are A Hipster!

You like the best things in life, but they aren't always the finest things in life. You value quality and craftsmanship.
You are an artsy person, and you're always dabbling in something. You're too creative to be a straight up consumer.

You are the type who is cool without trying. You just seem to sense a trend is in the air before it becomes mainstream.
You probably wouldn't call yourself a hipster, but you know deep down that you're a little hip. It's just effortless for you.

What's Your Love Language?

Your Love Language is Quality Time!

For you, the best things about love are indeed free. You just simply like being with your partner.
You'd think that time together would be the easiest thing in the world, but true quality time is a rare gift... one you totally appreciate.

You love to receive a little undivided attention. No devices allowed! You value time just talking and connecting with your sweetie.
Even making dinner together and watching a movie can be an amazing night for you. It's all about the company!

I called Barry at 8:50 to let him know about the dead mouse. When he called me back at 11 to say that he would be here in a couple of minutes, I checked the corner with the TV since I'd heard noise there as well last night. Yup, there was another dead mouse, this one in a glue trap. Good thing I checked, since Barry was here at 11:10 to remove them!

Steph said that Fraser loves the assorted emoji stickers. "Look, Mama, a poo!"

He loves all the assorted options!

"Look, a poo!"

Fraser and his mail bonanza of stickers! :D

From Reddit on Nov. 26, 2018: No, RupertOffy, liking someone's profile photo on Facebook is NOT even vaguely political, and there's no such thing as being used as a social weapon at school... if you mean "bullying," say so like normal people do!

I noticed that Joyce - whose birthday is today - had unfriended me from Facebook. Her loss! It was also COFFEE TIME by default since I got up at 7:20 AM. Mike B. had sent me a cool message to wish me a happy early birthday, so that definitely made me smile!

"You See the World as Somewhat Just"

You don't see the world in simple terms. What's just and unjust is complicated.
You believe that justice is sometimes served, both in and outside the courts. But there is plenty of injustice to go around.

You don't expect anyone to treat you fairly or unfairly. You do your best to protect yourself from life's uncertainty.
You consider any justice you receive to be a bonus, but it's certainly not the norm.

Do You See the World as Just or Unjust?
