A regular day for a regular guy in Montreal!!!
Hey! I'm 25 years old, live Montreal (Canada) born and bred, I speak English and French, I have 2 tattoos and that's just about that! I live off instinct, basically, and a job in Telecommunications Equipment drafting for Engineers (which word hardly means anything at all, I've discovered!). It's my second day here, at this point, so I haven't really thought of any quirky stuff to say or any witty story to tell other than I am no longer hung-over. Here is a regular day for a regular guy in Montreal! - I woke up at 6 am, Eastern Standard Time (ugh)! Tried to figure out exactly where I was and what exactly I was doing there and why in Gods name I would in any event actually wake up at such a God-awful time, when I suddenly remembered I was a human being, that I was responsible, consciencious and had a job. How very frustrating, however, afterwards, I remembered we were Poets! - I went to the kitchen where my coughing mother was (she smokes too much) to find the tele turned on chatting of rain and warm weather and such. They also said that there were newspapers with top stories and talked about all kinds of Hockey contracts being signed for The Canadiens de Montréal team (Where I am) for such and such a player, and so on... honnestly, my morning-attention-span isn't the best... - I made myself an INSTANT COFFEE (try to imagine how much you actually need a coffee when your actually making it INSTANT!? At least, I had 10% cream to go with it.... - I spoke finances with my Mom, and am not exactly sure what was accomplisehd, other than knowing that I pais a 235$ bill for her this morning as though it was an uncontrollable urge of some sort! Come to think of it, I also paid a bill for my little brother... hmmm? I'll have to look into this.... - I smoked a cigarette (except I don't cough or anything) and jumped in the shower... I might have done that before all the financially binding chit-chat... I didn't, but definitely should make a rule of doing it in that order... - I came out of the shower a little more alive, shaved after wiping sweat off the mirror (I still don't get how a poreless, inanimate and water-free mirror sweats!) and proceeded to trying to figure out exactly what laws hold sway over my hair! I have a few departments to call, according to the Head-Of-The-Hair-Board-Of-Directors... Too complicated, I'll put it to tomorrow... - I wished my Mum a good week-end, as she is leaving for the week-end, obviously, and proceeded to sauntering down the stairs to outside... I threw some earplugs into my ears and blasted Sovereignist Hip-Hop (in French) and walked over to the bus... (7:15 am) - I get on the bus, get seated in the furthest seat available, back-of-the-bus, near the window, on the right side, near the sidewalk... (Drivers are on the left of the vehicules here) (7:33 am) - I go down to the Metro train.. Get in a wagon, and nod off listening to my music. I open y eyes once in a while to enjoy the sight of our beautiful, magical Montréal women roaming the Metro system... (8:05 am) - I'm jumping on another bus... The 72, this time. I slept in earnest here... (8:30 am) - Crud, my offices are still there... I keep hoping they'd do like the Editing Building for The Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy and just disappear.. it never happens... That was a typical morning in Montreal, for a regular guy!Latest Messages
