The good, the bad, and the ugly...

Wednesday, June 14, 2006

This week is National Public Service Week. Basically, the Government of Canada is celebrating anyone who works for Canadian Citizens. On Monday there was a fashion show, and today there was a free breakfast for everyone who worked on the 12th floor (my floor). What are the odds that I would get a free writing utensil? Largely in my favour.... I did. It is a beautiful Canada pencil. How else are we supposed to celebrate this momentous week? I just returned from a hotdog lunch outside, where a band was playing, and I received a free waterbottle. I tell you, working for the Government makes me so patriotic. Tomorrow I get to take a Desktop Yoga class. Whooopi!
On a more sullen note, today the Oilers play Caroline, and Carolina has the opportunity to win the Stanley cup. Will we let them? NO WE WON'T! Holla to my boyfriends Jarret and Ethan. You know that I will always love and support you, no matter the outcome of tonights game.
Ciao!

Unfortunately the Oilers haven't been playing so well lately. What is to be done? I think I should personally instruct such players as Jarret Stoll and Ethan Moreau. I am a very effective personal trainer. Things will change for the better this Saturday. I am confident.
On a happier note, let me diverge upon something that makes me happy. Pens.... free pens. Here at the Government of Canada they are abundant.
Day 1: You are our new employees! Have a new pen!
Week 1: It is Nurse appreciation week! Have a new pen!
Week 5: Opening of a new Canadian Health network! Have a new pen, magnet and bookmark!
The government has really outdone itself. Especially when going all the way with magnets and bookmarks (Deep sigh). I think for people here at Canada Place, it is like giving candy to children. To tell you the truth I would prefer the candy, but I'll take what I can get.
Until next time... Keep fit and have fun!
