i've got a little list

[phinnia]

So far, many small annoyances:

1. Being stuck in Marketspice (a small, crowded store) behind a person that was taking FOREVER only to have a tour bus come in, which flooded the entire store with a huge crowd of tourists (yay claustrophobia ftw!)
2. My shoes are becoming wrecked. Wreckeder. None of my other shoes fit right, so it's a choice as to what body part I'd rather have be in pain. Right now I'm choosing ankles over toes. Must buy new shoes.
3. LJ kindly sending me comment notifications - with the comment text MISSING.
4. My iPod may be pooched. The iPod I forgot to buy the Applecare warranty on. The iPod I can't really afford to replace right now. *headdesk* STUPID.

And some small victories:

1. I found Canadian bacon! Delaurentis sells it. Except for some odd reason when you buy it here it doesn't have cornmeal around the edges. Mmm, bacon.
2. Seaners can reliably find our apartment door in the hallway.
3. Seaners is sleeping more or less through the night now. Yesterday he ate half an apple at school for snack. (This is amazing in that he hates things that go crunch and that require he chew them.) Maybe protein + Dimetapp IS the magic bullet. God, I feel like a moron for not figuring that out sooner. *headdesk*

I am also far too busy:

1. Sean's wellbaby visit is this afternoon.
2. Meet the teacher night is this evening.
3. Tomorrow morning we're touring a possible daycare placement for a few afternoons a week.
4. I also have a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon.
5. Saturday we're supposedly going sailing again.
6. Sunday we might go to the Italian festival, but I might bail on that and just go see The Black Dahlia instead.

I never ran across Canadian bacon in Vancouver that had cornmeal arounds the edges. Is it an eastern Canada thing?

It could be. It was always that way growing up (near Toronto), but I haven't spent enough time in Vancouver ...

We have both American and Canadian bacon, the first we eat with rice for breakfast and the second as sandwich meat. I was just having a Canadian bacon sandwich just now and was thinking, "I wonder what Phinnia calls Canadian bacon when they're in Canada...." But yours has cornmeal! How awesome.

New shoes always rock. Good luck finding super comfy ones! :)

Actually when I was growing up in Canada I didn't call it Canadian bacon - my family called it 'back bacon' or more commonly 'peameal bacon' (because apparently the cornmeal used to be a batter made from dried peas). :-)
