Sunday was Canada Day. George Abbott celebrated by firing the entire elected Cowichan school board for submitting a deficit budget in protest of his cuts to education. What an ass. BC teachers celebrated by ratifying a deal -out of fear- that provides no improvements to class size or composition but offers them free viagra and birth control. Asses. When I was younger I never watched the news or knew anything that was happening in the world, and in many ways this was a happier way to live.
Most people had Monday off work since the statutory holiday fell on a weekend, and that makes today, Tuesday, July 3rd, the first real day of summer holidays. Real in that it's the first day that everyone else has to go to work, and I get to thumb my nose at them and chomp viagra and birth control pills. That's the most important part of being on vacation, the part where other people have to work. The world celebrates by raining, thus preventing me from reading my book in a lawn chair as planned.
We woke up at 6am, with the stated plan of working out early in the morning to get the day started strong. Shawn is currently working out in the living room, nearly finished his hour. He's tough like that. And I'm still in my pajamas. It turns out I cannot make myself work out at 6am when I have not yet consumed any coffee. I'm lazy like that. I'm going to work out more like ten-ish. At least I got up. At least I made coffee. Maybe it will be possible to work out at 6am when it's not raining. But probably not.
