Hiyo!

Gratz to Harding for yesterday!
Guess it's true: third time really IS the charm!
He retook his learners exam and PASSED! Good for you Shawn!
Too bad the graduated licence system prevents you from challenging a Class 5 licence until at least one year has passed... >_>

Today...
Today at work I was lent out to be a helping hand for a Millwright. Not my line of work, but it is something I can do, and do well. Basically it's mechanics: just, it's for pumps and industrial equipment...
Rained like hell this afternoon, which pleased me. Knocked the power out in Fort Saskatchewan too, and it doesn't surprise me. The rain fell hard for at least 2 hours straight, with a dramatic lightning show. Really cool. Too bad I was indoors, safe and warm and dry.

After work, I took Jamie to the post office outlet at Shoppers Drug Mart, only to be disappointed.
The mailman dropped off a door-knob pamphlet, which came with my anime movie. It's purpose was to let our household know that there would be a package to pick up, should no one be at home at the time of drop-off to recieve it. Well, someone DID recieve my mail at home, and it came with the 'you have a package at the post office' note. Now, let's get confused...
The day I recieved my mail, I got an e-mail from Jamies' cos-play site, which said they sent the package THAT DAY. I assumed that my DVD came in with no pamphlet, and the note was for her costumes at Shoppers.
We went there today after work, and the lady explained things to me. First of all, I was teaching Jamie how to recieve mail like this, since she never did so ever in her life. I was embarrassed, because I honestly made a mistake, and looked bad for her. As the older brother, I'm not allowed to make mistakes or screw up: my role is meant to lead by example and be the 'perfect hero' that everyone thinks I should be.

I'm listening to battle music right now, getting pumped up. Good night to make my body scream, and pass out in delirium and a growing body of twitching nerves and steely muscles.

Meh. If only one could wander around the world, killing slimes for XP and Gold, and enjoy life as an adventurer. ^_^
