WINDSOR WEEKEND

Corey and I spent the weekend in Windsor. Friday night after work we drove down and crashed at his Uncle Ron and Aunt Lori's house. That evening we chated for a bit and then played my favoriate game Crainium Hoopla and we also played one of U. Ron's new games that he got CSI. It was an alright game but hard to try to follow the story. We played games until 2:00, I got A. Lori hooked on Crainum! Saturday morning A. Lori and U. Ron made us breakfast. Then Lori and I started to scrapbook. I was looking at a magazine and A. Lori was showing me one of Creative Memories new cutting systems. She wanted to show me how easy it was to change the blades. She proceeded to take it off and slice her finger! A. Lori ran to the bathroom and started running water over it. When she took it out of the water at one point I saw the blood gushing. I asked A. Lori if she wanted me to get U. Ron, I yelled down for them to come as A. Lori had hurt herself. After trying to apply pressure to get the bleeding to stop and U. Ron trying to apply tape stitches we ened up going to the walk in clinic to have a Doctor look at her finger. A. Lori didn't want to go as she doesn't like needles. She didn't want to get a tetnes shot or stitches. Thankfully for her she only had to get the tetnes shot and they were able to bandage up her finger. We were lucky that were we still able to make it to the wedding shower for Corey's soon-to-be Aunt Angie. The shower was really nice we had a lunch and prize draws. Corey's Uncle Brad and Angie are getting married in Hawaii on May 19. When we arrive back to the house A. Lori and I did some scrapbooking until our pizza arrived. After dinner we played Crainium Hoopla and Scene it. We then played more Hoopla and then we tried to play Trivial Prusit '90's edition but it was very difficult. We went to bed at 12 o'clock. U. Ron and A. Lori had to leave early in the morning so when we work up we cleaned up and then went to go for some visits. We went out to Tim Horton's for Breakfast and then went to visit with Fred, Corey's brother. Our last stop was for a visit with Corey's U. Brad.

GET EXCITED!

At work today Heather and I found out some good news. Do you like Chinsese food? On King St. right where I work (it's across from the Brick) they are putting in the Mandrian. Everyone at my work is excited. Right now the restaurant that we like to eat Chinsese food at right now is the Lantern which is right by my house at the corner of Fischer Hallman and Ottawa. They have really good food and good prices.

TIM HORTON'S

On Saturday Corey and I went to the Library. I read some of the newspapers. I read the sad story of the Tim Hortons cup incident. If you haven't heard, there was a teacher that threw out a roll up the rim cup. A 12 year old girl found the cup and couldn't roll it up so got an older friend to help her out. The cup was a winner of the car! This came to the attention of the Principal and they called the students parents as they are not old enough to claim the prize. The father of the girl that found the cup showed up. Everyone involved has been in contact with Lawyers. The teacher is trying to say that it is still their cup (once they threw it out they no longer had an ownership of it), the father of the girl that only helped to roll up the cup is trying to claim that it is their's and the father of the girl that found the cup in the garbage was offering to give the other family some money, but they wanted all the money. I believe that the money should go to the girl that found the cup. After we were done at the Library Corey and I went to Tim Horton's before his hair appointment. We both got roll up the rim cups but we had no luck. Then on Sunday we got together with Corey's parents for a walk at Waterloo Park and then out for coffee at Tim Horton's. The strangest thing happened while we were there Corey's Grandpa showed up. He told us that he goes to that Tim's everyday. Yet again with 5 roll up the rim cups we still had no winning cups.

INDESCENT EXPOSURE

So, today when I arrived at the Day Program and I was parking the van I noticed a guy doing some surveying by our side of the building. He happened to walk away from his scope when I parked and I just watched him as I gathered my things from inside the van. He hadn't moved from where he had walked to. I had a sinking suspision of what he was doing. I was hoping he wasn't going to do what I thought he was doing. I saw him shake and do up his pants. He noticed that I noticed him. What does he think he is doing peeing outside in the middle of the city?
