The Manuscript of My Life

Tuesday - Come Quicker!

Election madness!! I am going crazy! We have our own election up here on Tuesday, when our madness will finally be over. I am not sure how much more of this pre-election crap I can stand. The Conservatives are losing ground I believe, which serves them right for calling this bloody election in the first place. The Liberals have an intelligent, committed leader - but "'e duz not speeek Eeengleesh!" NDP leader Jack Layton is like a little bulldog and is a fabulous leader of the opposition party and will stall Harper on everything in the good old HoC. (House of Commons for you non Canadian types). Elizabeth May is a worthy adversary as well for opposition, however The Green Party doesn't have any seats, so I am not sure how much of an impact she will make. It will all be over but the crying on Tuesday night. Thank God!

The American election is painful as well. How much longer do we have to listen to this?? Let's just get out there and vote and move on! Kill me now! And if I hear McCain say "my friends" one more time I will shoot myself.

Sunday night we went to a good ol' hockey game! Whooooo! Hockey is back! It was a great game between the Ducks and Canucks. Evenly matched, lots of fighting...wahoo....and tied at the end of the third. Ducks pulled out a win 22 seconds into the overtime, which was awesome! Afterwards we went down to the player area, you know how we do, and chatted with Scott's agent, and Rob's father-in-law waiting for the boys to come out of the dressing room. Scott was taking FOREVER! His agent was joking that he is getting old and probably had to get iced up. I rolled my eyes! LOL....Anyway as he emerged he handed Donna a stick from her FAVORITE Canuck - Taylor Pyatt #9!!! She was ecstatic! The reason he was so long - he was in the Canuck dressing room getting Donna said stick. AWESOME!! (Many years ago he did the same thing for Neil and got him a signed game puck from Mario Lemeiux). It was pretty cool. It was great to see people we only see in hockey season and we are looking forward to their next game back here on Dec 22. Oh - and grampa Barney showed us pictures of Rob and Jess's new baby girl too - she is ADORABLE!

The deck is SO close to being completed. They should be able to wrap it up today I'm thinking. I am tired of having people wandering around outside all day long. It's hard to concentrate on my work with sawing and power nailing going on! Anyway - pictures to come shortly!

I'm off like a new bride's panties to get some work done. Peace out.....

Cam - You can't have Donna's stick! It is one of her most prized possessions! I don't own my own apartment, I am just renting so the deck only costs because I did get an increase in my rent - so basically it cost me $720 this year. (I did hear the builder say though that it cost $30,000 to fix the roof underneath the deck and build the deck). However, I suppose next year they will increase again. Such is the nature of the beast. But - to find a place to rent in this city that is any cheaper than what I pay - would be impossible.

I hear you about the election--and your campaign is just 39 days (or so) long. Ours has lasted nearly two years! Oh, the agony! And there's just one month to go now, so the mud is really going to fly as the stock market plummets. "My friends" indeed!. (Read the article in the current issue of Rolling Stone to find out about him.)

Congrats to Donna for getting that stick from Rob. Also glad that he'll be playing with the Ducks all season--it will be good for Anaheim's prospects.
