No time for a big post tonight since I've whittled away all my time tonight playing Text Twist. It just goes to show you it's not necessary to have all the fancy bells and whistles for a game to be addictively good.

It been a while since I've had a nice slice of strawberry shortcake. My favourite place to go for that is True Confections. I wonder if you can get it when it's not summer time?

I started watching Land of the Dead at around 1am last night. That was a big mistake. I have a fondness for zombie movies. I told myself I'd stop watching at 1:30am. It wasn't until 2am that I turned it off.

It's about 12:30am now and I'm thinking about watching the rest of it before I go to bed. That would be an unwise move given I have to work tomorrow.

Hey, by the way, the movie stars Simon Baker who was born in Australia. There was a guy that used to live in SJC named James, also from Australia. At least in my opinion, there's quite a resemblance.

The bus to work was surprisingly empty this morning. I got a seat all by myself where I rode in comfort all the way downtown. When I got to work, there were lots of people who stayed home sick from apparently the flu. I'm not sure if it was that avian kind that the news keeps talking about.

For lunch, I went to Bimini's. I had the BBQ chicken burger. I indulged myself with fries and gravy as my side. It was decadent.

Right before I left work, Tim showed me this horrendous bug in a part of the game that I wrote code for. It nagged me but I had to leave it for the next day since I had to go catch a bus downtown. I wanted to get some pants into the alteration place before they closed.

I then went home and made dinner by myself since everyone else had gone off to do other things. And that my friends, is a day.

If you've been following an earlier post, you know that I had planned for Friday night to be the time that I'd clear my name with Meghan/Megan, the Swiss Chalet server.

Prior to the 7pm meeting time with the boys at the Chalet, I had printed out a portion of my bank records to show Meghan/Megan that I had indeed paid for my meal. I arrive at the Chalet a few minutes after 7pm to find the Adam, Tyson, and Derm sitting at the bar portion of the restaurant. I thought we were going to sit in her section so I asked Adam what the deal was. Apparently, the restaurant was quite full so the bar was a quicker way to get a table. No problem.

After ordering our food, I brought out my bank statement and went up to the front of the restaurant. There were two hostesses awaiting me. I asked to see Meghan/Megan and they both kinda had puzzled looks on their faces. One of them said she wasn't sure if she was working tonight but that she'd go in the back and check.

I was left with the other hostess who I gave an explanation as to why I wanted to see her. Shortly, the other lady came back and informed me that Meghan/Megan was indeed not working that evening. Bummer. She wasn't even sure if she'd be in the next day.

I had to bring the statement back to our table where I informed the guys of the news. The truth will have to wait for another day. On the other hand, I had an excellent double leg dinner.
