modems, moving and lawns

juliet knows what's what.

so...just to clarify, if you care at all, the previous post regarding telus and the idiots that they are...my home internet wireless modem died last saturday and after a long talk with the nice telus rep. i arranged, because i'm not home during the day weekdays, to have it, the new modem, delivered to my work address...well, that didn't happen. and, after a long six p.m. friday conversation with a guy located in the philippines, shocker, that included used more superlatives and profanities than i have used in any conversation in recent memory, i found out they had, indeed, attempted to deliver it to my home, not my office. wicked. you fucking idiots. it was a long trip to get to that place - finding out where it had gotten to. up and running now after retrieving it from the postal outlet in chinatown, it's all good...thus this blog coming to you now. thank you telus for the new modem, but you're still wads.
after the telus meltdown it was off to cut a couple lawns and then to meet 'he who con not be named on the blog' for dinner at topanga...then home to fall asleep on the couch.
saturday was a busy one i'll tell you...doglawn in the morning, teamster lawn shortly after that and then downtown to lisa's to grab her and go pick-up some stuff in east van that she had stored over there...stuff we had taken there only a few short months ago. all worth the hassle as i got to have lunch with her, bought by her, at 'me and julio's' on commercial. i like that joint. and lisa's ok too.
after the move with lisa, it was off to kits to get another lawn done, then back to the shop to drop-off the mowers and such, wash the car and head to megan's to help her move some of her stuff to the storage place on terminal. i do love moving. megan just bought a new place and is putting some of her stuff into storage while she does her renos...very exciting.
the lovely sara mitchell and i later met-up and headed out for some cal-mex goodness and then a night at the movies...(500) days of summer to be exact...it gets good reviews but we both thought it was a piece of shit. oh well...still nice to get out to the movies...
today was breakfast at deacon's corner, and okay joint close to the homestead and then lazy get this and that after that...i got out on the, soon to be sold, motorcycle and little bit later - met-up with the queen of mount pleasant, juliet, talked a little bit about my, seemingly, imminent, move back to kits - unless it all falls through (still could..), had a coffee, and talked about the state of the (personal) union...
now it's cheap pasta and sauce....exactly want i want to eat right now...and a story on the recently deceased don hewitt.
work tomorrow, hockey tomorrow night...nice.
night night.
