TIME HAS STOPPED!

Someone call the National Research Council!  Time has stopped.  It seems to have completely stopped for the past four years in Mackenzie!  Seriously, I drove into town today and although I haven’t been here in four years EVERYTHING is the same.  I drove straight to my chosen restaurant and was stunned that they’re still using the exact same menu.  I guess the thinking must be why change if you’ve got a winner.  Although to be fair I did notice one major change at the restaurant, they’re using square plates now!  Toot, toot for the Merebello!

My usual hotel the lovely Williston Lake Lodge has done a few reno’s and the hotel room is much nicer than many I stay in and they have wireless internet.  While chatting with the manager upon checking in I was explaining my frustration with finding internet access while travelling through Alberta, to which she replied “I know we were staying in Westlock for a month and I couldn’t get access anywhere and just about went out of my mind so the first thing I did when I got back here was buy a wireless router”.

For some reason I’m really tired tonight and I’m tossing around the idea of calling it an early night.  My start time tomorrow is 530 which means that I’ll have to get up around 445 which really doesn’t make me happy.  I think I’ll watch Desperate Housewives and download Grey’s Anatomy tomorrow.
