I forgot to mention what happened to Heather and I on my first night in Calgary. I went to the Safeway where I bought some chocolate and batteries for my camera. As I was paying, the man ringing up the purchase said, "Chocolate and batteries, a woman's best friends."

I gave him a strange look and he said, "Oh, did I say that out loud. My inside voice came out."

We cracked up once we left the store.

Today I spent the day hanging out with my friends Sunni and Ed and their 4 month old daughter, Willow. We went shopping and hung out and played with the baby. I haven't seen them for about 5 years, so it was nice to catch up. Then I went to my publisher's house for a bbq and visited with tons of authors, some of whom I'd met and some of whom I hadn't. I found out that there is a review of our books in Fast Forward, along with a huge honking picture of my face. Yep. That was odd.

I'm dead exhausted tired. But other than that, everything is good. Back to GP tomorrow.

The safeway in Kensington? The one in my neighbourhood has totally friendly cashiers. Being downtown, I think they see a LOT of crazies! Not that you're crazy. I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to hang out, but I'm glad your readings went so well!
