No, i'm not mourning my pre-baby days right now again. Reason for the title is that I actually went to visit my friend at TD Waterhouse today. It's so nice i'm referring her to my friend instead of co-worker...uhh...! Anyways, I dropped off Matthew at the sitter today at 11. Although I have 1 adorable Madelyn with me (yes, see how my prespective changes so postively once I am responsible for only 1 ..ONE being today), it seemed like a holiday.
Well, well, well.. I thought I was ahead of the game starting out my trek at about 12. We're scheduled to meet at 1 after the market closes. Then, I get into DT core at around 12:30. Ok...I thought... "i'll visit H&M after the lunch" (which is now totally possible since an overly energetic toddler is no longer hanging around). Then, I get a glimpse of what my life will be in DT again. I was not pleased. Was stuck within a 1 block radius.. on Dinsmuir between Howe and Seymor for 20 MINS!!! Meanwhile, Madelyn was still sound asleep.
Ok..then made it up the handicap-unfriendly building (i had to go through sears' elevator to get up to ground level to go up TD tower). I know...why am I all of a sudden bitching about handicap access.. well, when u got a baby...u got a stroller.. u got hands that can only manouver the stroller and not the door at once. When i get up there, some ppl actually remember me! I guess 2 yrs in not such a long time for ppl who don't constantly get sleep deprived. They wake up for the market voluntarily.
Anways, was great lunch at Kamei Sushi with Marion, Landis, and Marchelle. Good old times. Then, the escaltor up to Kamei was dead..and then the girls got a taste of what bad handicap access is. Finished lunch and went to H&M. Yeah! it was so big. I was quite excited. But, like all parents, we buy LOTS for our KIDS. I got 1 dress for $35. Then rest was for Matthew and Madelyn. I dare say that Madelyn out won Matthew in this area today. I just once again... couldn't resist. Although the prices are much more digestible than say...the store on 4th.
It was tiring, but a good glimpse of both my life before (or could be future..u never know) and the lastest fashion trends.
Then...as I was washing dishes tonite... I remeber the song "the ants come marching ...blah blah blah"...I think of how it's not really funny.. b/c i'm having ants marching in my kitchen. I've got 2 today. I have yet to find out where they're coming from. hmm... i wonder if their family members keep dying..would they give up and go back outside. *sigh*
oooo...one thing to look foward to though.. LOST! it's on tonite! season finale...I can get all LOSt all over..and over..and over.. b/c you can never get the answer and become lost everytime you watch it. I feel abused...yet keep on watching.
