Happenstance

Private amusement of the day: so I stop into Papa Murphy's to pick up dinner and it's packed in there with the Friday night dinner crowd. (We always phone it in ahead though.) I am zoned out tired from lack of sleep but my ears immediately perk up when I hear the words "Pride & Prejudice" and "Ohhhh, that Mr Darcy!" When I get to the front of the line I ask the girl behind the counter which version she was talking about, and she meandered on about how she had just seen the 2005 movie and would definitely not had liked it as much if she hadn't previously seen the 1995 miniseries, that she wouldn't have understood what was going on. So I'm postulating she meant the 1995 one was the one she was going all gooey over. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

BTW, the last time I was in there, "Evil Woman" by ELO was playing. (After I made that post.)

Also, randomly, we went for a walk yesterday and right there crossing in front of us, rolling down 12th Avenue, was a Segway. First time I'd ever seen one in person, and there it was in the middle of our quiet neighbourhood.

Also also, my cat Rowan just swatted a yellowjacket out of the air, which I subsequently smacked with my Birk.
