G Dawg gets the circle jerk (runaround)

This morning when M woke up, his foot still hurt so I decided I would take him to the children walk in clinic when it opened at 10.  I arrived around 10:10 and there were already 5 people in front of me with a 1.5 hour wait, so I decided to forgo it.  By that time he wasn't walking around with a limp any more or asking me to carry him, so I figured he must be better.  And since he seemed fine when he came back from daycare, I'm glad I spared us the 1.5 hour wait to be told to monitor the situation.

I also met my mother-in-law for lunch today.  She suggested White Spot at 1:00 in Coquitlam, which I googled since I had never been to the one in Coquitlam.  Well apparently nether has she.  After I arrived a couple minutes late, I walked around the restaurant looking for her.  She is always punctual so I knew something was amiss when I didn't see her anywhere.  As she doesn't have a cell phone, I had to ask the hostess for the phone number of the White Spot about 5 min from my house on North Road.  After describing her, they located her and put her on the phone.  Yes, we were in 2 different locations.  I drove to her White Spot (which is in Burnaby by the way) and we had a nice lunch.  Since I didn't have anywhere to be today, it didn't matter.  I was starving though and decided to go with the tried and true chicken pot pie.  I will say they have classed this up with a nice side salad, and the pot pie is better than I remember.  Of course MIL could only manage to eat one section out of 4 of her quesadilla.  Like her namesake, she does eat like a bird.  Which is actually a misnomer since birds eat a lot compared to their size.

Fellow honorary Dole Club member N came over for a cup of decaf later on in the afternoon and I splurged by turning up the heat from the chilly 16 degrees it is usually set at when everyone is at work.
As for productive work today, I did manage to clean all the bathrooms and vaccuum, both which were sorely needed.  So it wasn't a completely frivolous day.

You have to come over to the office soon to watch the Bachelor.  Sorry I tried to wait but it was killing me to find out what happened, even though I saw on someone's FB post who "won".  Anyway we need to debrief, so let's schedule a showing soon.

  1. Who doesn't love circle jerks? Glad the little rebel with the curly hair is alright.
