It’s a beautiful rainy day in Halifax, and despite the low pressure, things feel uplifted, cheerful, and relaxed. We have safely navigated an immense visitation by more or less the entirety of the Ripa clan, and have continued to help maintain a restful environment in which the new Princess of Shambhala can begin to explore her world.
I also just returned from a week-long vacation, which was wonderful in every way. After the long visit in the court, it was a big breath of fresh air to step back, sleep, hang out with my wonderful girlfriend, and explore the breadth of Nova Scotia from the inside of a Hyundai.
My new-found passions include coffee and clothing. I would by lying if I said I did not stay up way past my bedtime last night thinking of various outfits I could don today. If I had a lot of money, I would spend at least half of it on clothes. With the other half I would invest in a start-up that makes ingenious little kitchen gadgets.
The fall is coming, and the leaves are changing, and the wind is reminding us all that we’re in Canada (as if Tim Horton’s wasn’t enough…) I have to confess that while I hate subsidizing healthcare with taxes when I seek to fulfill my materialistic desires to own more clothes, and I hate Tim Horton’s for petty selfish reasons (they only accept Master Card, and once I was super hungry and was denied my doughnut because I only had a visa), I actually like Nova Scotia. I’m not saying I’m planning on moving here any time soon, but it actually might not be so bad… Don’t tell anyone I said that.
