Black Friday
Just wanted to apologize to anybody who happened to cross my path on Friday morning. Due to the heavy rains last week, mudslides spilled into our reservoirs, resulting in brown tap water for much of the Greater Vancouver area. Because of this, ALL downtown Starbucks were not serving drip coffee for risk of contamination. Can you imagine? Very hard to wake up for a rainy 6:30 shift without my morning Starbucks fix. I spent the whole morning feeling like I was in a scene from Trainspotting.
In any case, Starbucks was back in full service on Saturday, so I was able to put the tragic events of 11/17 behind me. We still have to boil our water for the next few days or so until things are back to normal. I managed to get through the rest of the weekend alright though. Saw Borat on Friday night (more about that later) and went to a house party on Saturday night where I hydrated with lots and lots of Smirnoff Ice. I'm back on weekend shifts from 12:00-8:30 which is kind of a drag, since there's not a lot to do, but since the weather hasn't been great, I don't feel like I've been missing out on much.
