October 24

Today is the day Seguin bought me a GINORMOUS choclate bar. It actually weighs one kilogram. It's my favourite type of chocolate too.

What a sweetheart. =)

Holy kittens! Today is also the day I was featured on the front page of etsy!

October 12th

Today is the day Skye brought home a new friend.

October 9th

Today is the day I saw Mom and Roger in the grocery store and thought about how I've reached that point in my life where I can live in the same town as my mother and run into her out and about without seeing her at home.
Today is also the day I saw Angie in the grocery store and missed her a lot.

October 8th

Today's the day I helped a man in customer service who sounded just like the cowboy from The Big Lebowski.

October 5

Today's the day I finally took a walk down the dead end street near West Road Convenience. The houses were small and nice and reminded me of my Aunt Deedee's. It was chilly and there were Autumn leaves everywhere and there was a cat curled up on someone's porch chair.
There's a big empty lot at the end of the street, down by the river. I wonder what they're going to build there.

October 2nd

Today's the day I had my first proper guests since I got this apartment.
They brought cookies. =)

October 1st

Today is the day I had my first real bank appointment to discuss my finances and my future.
It felt pretty grown up and empowering.

A New Feature

I'm sure all you other bloggers have noticed that while some days inspire reflection and sharing and are worth recording, there are many others that don't. However, it seems there's bound to be at least one moment in every day that is for some reason memorable and is worth noting despite the nature of the rest of it. Something that stands out, something that you'll think back to, weeks or even years later, when you no longer remember anything else that may have happened that given day. Wouldn't it be cute, I thought, to go on picking that moment out of every day I have, and noting it somewhere; on a calendar, in a notebook, on my blog. Keep track, sort of. So even when a few years have passed and the day to day of 2008 has long since slipped from my memory, I'll have a tiny memorium of each day I lived.

So that's what I'm going to do. I aim to do it every day, here on my blog. The moment I choose could be anything. It could be huge and significant, or small and passing. It could be good, bad, or anywhere in between. It could be 'Today's the day I gave that nice tourist couple directions to the bingo hall,' or 'Today's the day I crashed my bike coming home.' Or my favourite so far, 'Today's the day I accidently kicked that guy's case of beer in the sushi restaurant.' It could be anything. But with a whole year's worth of new days coming up in just a few short months, I'm quite eager to see what they're all going to be. I hope you guys enjoy them too.

September 30, 2008.
Today's the day I learned to do an invisible hem on the boy's new suits (and cut a big hole in Seguin's).
Ooops.
