Finding Yonder

"What if Christmas doesn't come from a store?
What if Cristmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?"

I updated my bio at the Red Tiger webstite. I put "changing my hair colour" as one of my hobbies.

I think my hair works as a conversation piece. It's a different colour whenever people see it. I've had loads of comments in the last half a week, ranging from "why did you dye your hair that...interesting colour?" to "my mom is going to let me dye MY hair red next summer!" from one of the girls that I teach.

I've found that the less sleep I get, the less patience I have with rude customers. I had to bite my tounge today when a customer told me that our way of wrapping gifts was "increadibly tacky". Wrap it yourself, then, you pretentious moron. It's complimentary, damn it.

Be nice to sales associates this Christmas. Chances are that they're being over worked, under paid, and really just don't care that much about finding you a Derek Alexander card holder. If only we could spit in your food.

An update:

I will be in Ottawa for the next five days.

In the last week, five different guys that I know displayed some kind of interest - two in a rather obvious manner. It's really weird how it's all come at once; it must be the Christmas spirit.

I now have very red hair.

Christopher Columbus didn't discover America. The Chinese were there by 1421. In fact they were everywhere, including Antarctica.

I miss you. Why doesn't that matter to you?
