Did we say 4 to 5 weeks?

Silly us....4 to 5 DAYS!!!!!
Yesterday, I joined the ranks of Canadian residents....woot woot!!!!
Ten minutes later, as a Canadian Resident....I finally got my library card!
Tonight, we celebrate with Indian food at Amriko's that we shouldn't splurge on but, ya know, whatever. It's a celebration.
Next week....gulp. Job search?!?

WELCOME TO CANADA!!! I'm so happy for you. What a relief, eh? By the way, now that you are officially Canadian, you'll have to use "eh" in your blog posts. We'll be checking.
Enjoy your celebration!!!!!!

That was very fast! Congratulations!

Plus: I have been loving the library online system... since I discovered it.

You just find what you want... request it and you get an email when it's ready for you.

Love it!! Easy like Amazon, but Free!

job search?!?
You are Canadian for less than a day, and already you are talking like a trucker?

maybe you could get a job delivering mountain dew to korpan's house...it's long hours and heavy work, but it's a job.
