One of my predictable photo-shots from sky scrapers (Lord: not scarpers) in down town(=city center) TO.
My fingers were locked and couldn't click on the camera shutter ... for couple of weeks ... as I had to change my allowable threshold for an acceptable shot in a new town like TO.
From now on ... Ill try to be more generous when it comes to clicking.
I celebrated my 100 days of solitude ... by having a TETLEYS ... with my book + camera + mp3 player in down town TO ... as there is nothing as good as a decent ale in a hot sunny day.
Couple of days later ... on a radio station ... they were saying how good it is to have screw caps or tetra packs instead of corks for wine bottles.
As far as I know from my picky wine expert EU friends ... that alcoholic liquid ... can not be called wine any more.
In my youth ... I spent some days with a TEAM of nice people soil profiling in London (not in Ontario) ...
Thanks to Wright Brothers ... the team members now live in 3 different continents ...
The experince of those couple of days has been the most useful knowledge I have used so far in the new job.
The initial idea of writing a Blog ... if I can keep it up ... was initiated by the Lord.
Although, I spent a good hour exploring it and writing my first post, I lost the reason/need for writing ... and the why question bothered me for a while.
I became even more disappointed when I saw the reasons people have listed for their writing.
After days of wondering, I came up with these answers ...
I write to ... keep in touch with many friends I think I have in various galaxies ...
I write to ... record my strangle of thoughts ...
I write to ... release/share my good/bad/ugly moments ...
Also bare in mind that I don't write ... to impress, make you laugh or to make my voice heard ... as according to 2 honest persons I stopped doing these at 1976.
PS: This photo was taken in Bath by a French photographer ... if you have been to UK but haven't been to Bath ... I am sorry for you ... as you you have missed a beautiful city.
Last week, in total, I have driven the GOLF around 600km to & back from the office/site ... an hour and 15min each way ... which is more than the driving I had done in the last 5 years.
Although I was stuck in a box like George at my first day at work pretending I know what I am doing ... they made sure to make the best use of me ... by sending me on a drilling rig for 10 hours non-stop job the rest of the week.
The chilly mornings on construction site made me realize ... how lucky I am that I didn't start working back in February.
This is the view of Victoria Park-Eglington from my room.
I have spent many days looking outside this window ... wondering ... what will come next.
It took me around 82 days, but, finally most of the things are sorted ... and now I look forward to start the new job ... it should be interesting.
