Agents of hate and terror
Does anyone else think that Harper is sounding more and more like Bush every day espically when he says sound bites like "agents of hate and terror"?
*sigh* Let's just hope that we don't go that way too. :-(

Blue sky
When Laura and I were travelling last summer in Spain and Portugal, after a couple of weeks something was bothering me. Something that I couldn't put my finger on, but just had a feeling that something wasn't quite right. How could something be wrong when the weather was sunny and gorgeous all the time?
After this feeling building up for 3 weeks I was able to figure it out: it wasn't ever cloudy. Ya, sometimes there were wisps of clouds, but it was always sunny and blue sky. Not that I want clouds and freaky weather, but that's what I am used to. Two days of clear weather in Canada is nice but rare. You can usually see big clouds at some point even if it's not going to rain.
I felt comforted when we got to San Sebastian and it was cloudy and cool. That was the first time we had to use our wind breakers in like 3 weeks.
I would never have thought that I would have gotten freaked out my nice weather, but I did. In another post I'll discuss about the food... ;-)

Scary things like microwaves
One of the things that bothering me more and more is the microwave. Yes, that does sound dumb, but I can't help thinking about what kind of damage we're doing to ourselves while we are in the same room as it. What makes me think that it is bad? Well, it was messing up our old 2.4MHz phone, and we "lose the internet" when it takes out our wireless router. Actually, it's very hard for us to use the wireless router around dinner time even if we're not using our microwave. That's what I find scary.
I just wondering how people will react in 50 years when we tell them how we live today. People won't believe how we couldn't know that the things we are doing are really bad for ourselves. I just hope that I am around long enough to tell those "crazy" stories... :-/

To house, or not to house...
One of the things that scares me: buying a house. Not because it's scary to have a house (I want one), but it's the cost. Apprently they are at a record high. Does that mean we should hold off for the prices to come down? Are the prices coming down?? If not, should we buy now while we still can?
*sigh* Who knew that we'd be dealing with "grown up" stuff like this. Now to get back to grapevine and mls (which is horrible by the way).
