my alarm clock didn't go off this morning :S i should've been suspicious because i felt well rested when i woke up. so annoying. i can't figure out why! that alarm clock is so unreliable. i like it because the numbers are green and it's easy to set, but all in all it's functionality is a disappointment. i threw on some clothes and my glasses, packed my lunch and headed to work. didn't shower, didn't brush my teeth, didn't eat breakfast. i hate starting days this way - late and flustered.

we had the AGM last night. i felt it went pretty well. i was telling b afterwards that it will take some time for me to adjust to the reality that i'm not on the board anymore. probably not until the first meeting that i miss. i think it will be good, but an adjustment. i've been privy to the interesting ins and outs of church life, and had a lot of say in the direction we go in. i think i'm going to have to find a new place in the mix since i don't really remember what it was like prior to.

our list exchange on monday evening was great. the items made me laugh and cry. it was a very bonding experience, like we were bound more tightly together, and afterwards we just sat really close on the couch talking about our days and arcade fire. that's a definite new tradition. i'm actually looking forward to next valentine's day.

this weekend we're hitting the road. we're driving to quebec city to visit beckie, her city and her dogs. i'm feeling super excited. i love roadtrips with brendan and i'm excited about our destination too. i haven't been to q-city since 1993. but i LOVE montreal, so if i like quebec a fraction of my affection for its contemporary then it's going to be a love-in. we're leaving first thing saturday morning (cross my fingers... 7 am!), and will return on monday. i'm looking forward to it!

you've got the world to see.
