I’m going to leave

 out of here in an hour to pick up my cheque and get that done. After I do my banking, it’s off over to Audrey’s get my book and then hop on the #2 bus over to Cash Canada on 50th street and I‘m going to take my Ipad along so I can take some pictures if needed and test (finally) away from the apartment how good this 3G service is and pop into McDonalds for a bite to eat and head home.

I finally got someone from iTunes to respond back about my gift card issues. So I took a photo from my Ipad of the bill the back of the card and then emailed it to me. Then after receiving said email I opened the photo within Firefox and put it on my desktop. I replied to iTunes with the photo so they can pinch and zoom in for the PBH numbers and what numbers I have on the card. Easy process and helps to remove stuff from Ipad memory usage. I love this New Ipad but in future enhancements, I’d like to see them be able to take a photo from within photos and drag it onto the desktop to be used as wallpaper. 

As for now I’m relaxing enjoying a coffee charging up my Ipad. After I compose this and wrap a few things up, I’ll have a shower change and head out of here.

One week off isn’t enough. I’d like to have 2 weeks off. I’d still get a check when I come back. I think in August I’ll take 2 weeks off after I save a bit of cash. 

At Clareview station I bought my 6/49 ticket and had a few minutes to check out my 3G connection on my iPad. Works great. I took a video and tried it on the way into the office, Tweeting Twitter posts along my way until the train got underground. I got into the office and got my check, said hi to J and said I’d be (possibly) in Monday night. I asked about my vacation pay and he said something like “its all taken care of.” I said hello to my buddies, and got some text numbers so I can make text messaging calls which I hadn’t got made any yet. There was a bit of a line up at Scotia but I had my iPad with me so it wasn’t so bad waiting. I went to Audrey’s and thought maybe they wouldn’t mind if I could hold the book one more week because after giving my wife what she needs and buying the book, I’d be left with not very much. They said  ok, no problem. They’ve got some nice books there. Glen Cook’s Garret PI books look interesting, I was almost going to buy “Garret takes the case.” I probably will later after the RJS book. I was ready to take the train home, then realized, no, I need to go upstairs to catch the #2. I took a video inside the bus but I’m not publishing it because riders are in the way. I got off where I wanted to be and checked out Cash Canada, their guitars were in the back and they didn’t have much of a selection and the lowest price was the clerk said $350 for a Fender. I’d rather spend the extra $130 and get a new Epiphone ES-335 dot then someone else‘s headache. That‘s my next project. I had a double quarter pounder with cheese and fries and drink. The decor in the facility was gaudy, food meh. I got a #2 bus just outside and decided at 50th street and walk home. I was inside the apartment by about 3:45pm. I had a good day.

I was disappointed about Cash Canada and McDonald's but the afternoon was good to get out.. Anyway, that’s about all for now.
