now trying to get some music synced onto my iTouch player for Anne. 
Last night was one of those wow nights. Winnipeg/Montreal saw my pick on
 Proline (Montreal to win) come through. But I was doing taps for the 
last hour and got a few sales but the tap file was a slow file netting 
me out only a few sales. I got my check and everything was right. Just 
as I had all my stuff packed and ready to go I had one last customer on 
the screen and he was a $400 tap. I got it on the card but all the bonus
 money had gone by guys making a lot less then me. I had $635 on card by
 the end of the shift. The Hamilton/BC game was well underway and BC was
 leading by a large margin. I felt good about this game and I would 
catch what was left when I got home. I went to use the bathroom and 
headed out side into the 1st week of July’s bright sunshine evening. My 
ticket was still alive. BC was blowing out Hamilton in the 1st Quarter. I
 felt good about this. 
This time, I decided to walk up to my RBC as that end of Jasper is 
reduced to just 1 lane. The first ATM had a bit of a glitch as the 
envelope deposit “tray” or window wouldn’t open. It cycled through 
trying to open so I went to the next one and did my banking and I had 
trouble getting 45 day statement. The 2nd effort I got my statement. 
Yeesh.
For some reason a huge crowd got on the train at Churchill. What was 
going on at Churchill I had no idea. Maybe Jazz City, probably.  I got 
home and I think the score on the game was something like 14/33 in the 
3rd quarter but Hamilton was making a comeback. There was a 3 point 
difference point wise (Tie game in Proline) and the Lions had the ball 
on the Hamilton 10 yard line 20 seconds on the clock. It was 1st down 
and rather then kick a field goal for the extra 2 points, they ran out 
the clock! So much for my ticket. The other 2 games are meaningless now.
 BC won all right but a 3 point spread difference in Proline, is a tie 
game. Pissed me right off!  At least wrestling was fun. Anne made me 
some lunch and I went to bed, or tried to sleep but best I could do out 
of all of that was maybe 2-3 hours of sleep. 
I got a full day ahead of me. I want to go get some breakfast this 
morning. I’ve got a 6 hour shift. After this I’m getting my book at 
Audrey’s “Going Pro with Cubase 6.” Then after that, I’m taking the #2 
bus out over to Wendy’s as I have a craving for their Baconator combo 
and I’ll wait for the #183 at the half which takes me home. Then pass 
out. It’s nap time. 
Most likely I’ll go to the casino next weekend because I’ll have a bit 
more cash to play with. I’m already wiped out. It’s been a big week:
 
Tuesday
 am I had to go over to the Registry and get my Government ID and I 
spent an unexpected amount wiping out half my funds in my account. I 
didn’t realize coming home I had left my bank card etc there at the 
office with my new Scene debit card. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 
were slow for me at it was. I was lucky to avoid the LRT ticket Police 
that night but they were out there asking for tickets the next night 
when I had my bus pass. If they were out there the previous night when I
 had left my buss pass behind, I would have gotten a $150 fine. Then 
Thursday I had to get a form filled out from my employer for CRHC and 
yesterday a bank statement from my Scotia bank and then last night one 
from my RBC. Yeesh. The good news is at least I got my Government ID and
 my Cubase book is in and so are my Paypal funds (Wednesday). It's been a
 busy week, that's about all for now.
