Surprise!

February 29, 2008

So I had to go back to Mississauga tonight for my post-op appointment tomorrow morning. When I got on the bus, I called home to tell them I was on my way but the line was busy. I call back 20 minutes later, still busy so I try my brother’s cell phone hoping he was home so he can tell my mom that I’m on my way. My brother’s on his drive back from work so I wait another 20 minutes and call home again. Still no answer and by now I’m about 10 minutes away from the bus terminal. I call my brother again and since he’s also about 10 minutes away from the bus terminal, he says he’ll swing by and pick me up.

I go home and my mom is still on the phone. I say hi to her while I go to my room but she doesn’t see me or I guess hear me. I go downstairs to watch SportsCentre and when she comes down she walks RIGHT BY ME until she’s halfway in the kitchen and she’s all “SHERRY!” like she’s surprised to see me. She asked me how I got home and asked if I took the transit home. I’m tempted to say yes but then I just tell her Po came to pick me up. Apparently there’s some serious stuff going down at her church because she’s been on the phone all night about it. My cousin’s English tutor was supposed to come by tonight and showed up at 10:30 apologizing that it was late and explaining that he had to cancel tonight but couldn’t get through on the phone. Heh. She only just hung up too.

I think I’m going to go buy a new fish tomorrow. I’ve already decided he’s going to be named Alfishsson.
