snow day....

last night we decided, my dad - floyd - and i, that maybe i'd try and get over to naniamo monday and not sunday as originally planned...well, as i write this it's still snowing and is said to be worse over on the island so...maybe tomorrow will be a snow day as well...
i spent a lot of the day today driving around in the snow...and it was no big deal but it is fairly entertaining watching the spin-outs and mishaps of others in the snow...shauna called me today and we ended-up going to granville island and over to the new meinhardt's over on arbutus and had no trouble at all getting around...i hadn't seen shauna for a bit and it was nice to hang out with her and help her pick-up some of her xmas gifts that she'll take with her to saskatoon...her family set a $$ limit and the gifts were/are to be all consumables and there were some good finds at meinhardt's...
tonight was the topanga xmas party as well....on the way there we stopped by don bull's but he wasn't home, but we met his neighbour, good guy....he liked us i think. we also called jen with one N but she wasn't home either....it snows and then no one's home...so on to the party we went...
the party was good, nice to see some old pals who don't work there anymore or who have been away for a while - some now pregnant, some back from france......and the gift game where stealing others gifts is encouraged...i got a book i was happy to get and no one wanted to steal so i was happy with that too....
ok...well..i better get to bed and figure out in the morning if i'm heading off to the island...

good times.
