October 27, 1999 - Wednesday


Today was an interesting day. I had a lot of classes - 7 and they generally went well. I got out of the school before 10:30, I'm thrilled to be able to report.

I got a call from one of my bosses today, praising the work I've done as Area Coordinator. She told me that no-one thought I would do such a good job. That's good, I guess, but if they had their doubts, why did they give me the job???

Also I've been having an e-mail fight with my sister over the Teletubbies. She wants to paint her daughter's room the four Teletubby colours, each wall a different colour. I think she's nuts, but it is her house, so what can I say??? I told her that I don't think it's a good idea, but on the other hand, so what. What does my opinion matter anyway?

Did anyone else think that the plane accident that killed the golfer Payne Stewart sounded a little Stephen King-ish? I know it was a terrible accident, but it really reminded me of the story "The Langoliers". The plane flying for hours with no-one in control and all that. A bit strange. Golf isn't my favourite sport, but I'm not in anyway trying to trivialize the event. He seemed like a nice guy.

It is pouring with rain now. Sigh. I should probably post this and get myself into bed for a longer sleep. That would be cool!

Did anyone else feel the earthquake last night? It shook my apartment for about 30 seconds. It wasn't terribly strong, but a definite quake.

Last night, just as I was about to go to bed I was watching a French programme with Jane Birkin. It was cool. All of a sudden though they started singing in English. It was my old idol, David Essex, in all his late 60's or early 70's glory. Oh my gosh. His eyes were more sparkly than Brad Pitt's. He isn't so cute now, but , Mama!!

Also, I did mail my packages. Yay!

À demain.
