We Wrestle Not With E-mail Providers

I am sitting here in a battle of the wills, locked in combat with my e-mail provider. I have been out of town since Friday. Went back to Red Deer to meet with a business person that I am working with and also attend a wedding and see some very precious friends that I love more then anything and would do pretty much anything to be able to spend time with them. Then I drove all the way to our family cabin to vegetate and eat too much food. Finally, home. And back to the mission. Only the mission has been somewhat fouled due to poor e-mail service this morning. I have 35 e-mails waiting to be downloaded and responded to (which was actually less then what I was expecting) but alas... none shall pass.

So instead I sit. And wait. Something is going to move and it ain't going to be me. Worse yet my dad can't download his either. Oh electronic world of wonder -- how we rely on you for our daily.... uhh... daily whatever.

Maybe I should take this time to do a bunch of the running around I need to do. Errands out of the house. Ohhhh.... outside people! I like to see outside people.

I was going through my schedule last night and laughed at it. I've been out of town every weekend in October so far... and I will be out of town this next weekend and then away for the rest of the month. It will then turn to November where I believe I'm home for a grand total of 6 days. Just over two weeks of that will be spent in Scotland, so I'm quite excited for it. Hence me refering to the trip in every blog I write.

What other pointless information can I bore/entertain you with?

I'm about to hop in the shower. It is cold outside. I'm having forgiveness issues with my e-mail provider. I need to ask my bank a bunch of strange questions. I'm going to eat real chinese food on friday and intentionally get lost in a giant corn maze shaped like the Oiler's Ryan Smith's head only to emerge just in time to drive to Jasper. I'm learning how to use my new PDA and becoming organized and efficient. I woke up early to work on e-mails. I could still be sleeping.

I'm going to go weep in the shower now.
