Tomorrow I have to leave the house at 5:30 am because I have to drive to Port Alberni for court and that takes 3 ½ hours. I’ll have about 3 hours in between two different appearances and over lunch – not sure what I’ll do there. P.A. is pretty small. Maybe I’ll find a bar to have a drink in, maybe go to sleep in my car since I’ll be so tired, used bookstore hunting, Chinese buffet? Whatever I do I think it will be fun because I'll be rambling around town not cooped up in the office.
Yesterday I hadda go to the courthouse in Victoria to drop off some books at the library. I saw a lawyer from our firm there and tried to hide so that he wouldn’t see me and assign me work, but he spotted me and said “you look like you’re trying to hide from me so I won’t give you any work”. He told me not to worry because he didn’t have anything for me to do. I then asked him if there was anything I could do for him (knowing the answer) and if he wanted a coffee. He bought me a coffee. Success!

so what did you end up doing in P.A over lunch? Chinese buffet? Or did the call of the burger and fries get you?
Buffet. Yesterday turned out to be trouble because my car died on the way back from port alberni. Things went fine during the day but the engine started knocking and rattling really loud in the mountains outside of port alberni. i was pretty sure it was almost dead, so i bought some motor oil off some people and poured it in and prayed it would last to to nanaimo at least. i was going about 60km/hr down the highway (the limit was 100). the engine finally seized and the car died on the highway about 3 km from the nanaimo ferry terminal, so i took everything out of the car and decided it would be a good time to go to vancouver.
