screw you US!This made me very happy today. We are leading the US in the medal standings. Like a true Canadian I am most happy when we beat the US. HA!

I am very sore right now. It was PD Days yesterday and today. As part of our PD (professional development) today, we had decided back in June that we would have a curling bonspiel to raise money for a local charity. So I was curling today. I have never curled in my life. I am also not in any shape at all. My legs are killing me. And its only been 2 hours since we finished. I dont even want to think of how sore I will be when I wake up tomorrow. Despite the sore legs it was fun! I am so not graceful, and fell 3 times. Like really fell. From my feet to my ass, and once forward onto my chest. Then again I have problems walking in flip flops so that shouldnt be a surprise. We ended up raising almost $300 and it will go to the College's food bank.

As I work at a provincial college, I am part of a union. The AUPE to be exact. We have meetings I think 3 times and year and we had one yesterday. Its referred to at school as the Staff Association. Our chair left the school to go to a new job and we had to elect new members and executive for the association. Guess what. I am now the chair of the association. Or I think the President of the Staff Association. I am still not sure how I feel about it. It will be interesting and a challenge. I get to sit in on the bargaining agreement talks that are coming up and I will get to go to a conference in Edmonton in October. Its funny though because I have only been part of the union for just over a year. Go figure.

I am thinking of coming into town tomorrow as there are a a bunch of movies I want to see, and they are playing at the cheap shows. Waiting to hear from Nicole to see if she wants to come too. Anyone else wanna see a cheap movie with me? I also want these buttons. Retro CBC! How cool is that?

  1. I’m with ya on the medals! Ha! Know what kicks all kinds of ass?! That the US women’s team lost and won’t be playing for the gold medal!
