Hurried Post

I've only got a few minutes before I should get some work done... it's gonna be another busy day. Damn quarterly deadlines. Everyone has 'em.

The new haircut has so far gone over alright... I'm quite impressed. It's such a nice change of pace for me. Very little maintenance... that's what I like. It's been rather shocking for most... ha ha... especially since everyone I really know now around here has only just met me after England and I had long-ish hair since then... so SURPRISE!

I actually got in contact with Barb again... I was talking with Benny the other night and he was asking if I had talked to her. Frankly, I hadn't even been thinking about her lately. So in lieu of that, I sent her a 'name that tune' text message... of which the answer was 'Downtown' by Neil Young (what a tune!). It was a set of messages that she jumped in and asked all the questions and asked what I was doing next week... so we might get together on Thursday next week... I have the day off for the US Thanksgiving holiday, so lunch might be in order.

At the Christmas Party on the weekend, Fred and Nancy gave some of us VIP tickets to the Hockey Legends game this Thursday at the Saddledome. It came with tickets to the charity auction shindig afterwards in the club lounge at the 'dome. I had checked to see what Ash was up to... she's supposed to work, but said she'd look into it. Again, not holding much hope... I tried texting her last night, to no avail. I'm kinda hopin' she gets back to me by tonight... I did say to Dad that he should come if all plans fall through. He'd really enjoy it at least.

Anyways... it's now reaching 8am... gotta get a major project goin' here this morning. Catch ya later.
