DJs suck
Ok, they probably don't all suck, just the one that we didn't see last night. I left work early, went and picked up Steve and fought traffic to get across the bridge to Longeuil for 6pm. He had asked us to be very prompt because he had something to do that evening. Well we get to the office where we're supposed to meet, it's a photography studio that he works out of. We were there a bit early, so we waited.....and waited. Finally, this guy shows up and let's us in and starts getting information from us and whips out a binder of photos. It's the photographer, and he's mistaken us for his 6:30 appointment and we've mistaken him for our DJ. Turns out that the DJ was sick and he didn't call us to cancel the appointment. That was our evening wasted!
Highlight of the evening: While we were waiting, we went and got ice cream (twists dipped in chocolate) at a little place across the street. It was actually an ice cream and piano bar, bit of an odd combination. The place was covered with pictures of Celine Dion, from her early beginnings with the really bad hair and clothes to present, shots of her wedding, etc. A few of them had the same guy posing with her, so he probably owns the place. Anyway, we got our ice cream and went and sat outside where we were joined by an orange and white cat (looking very much like Oscar, Caroline). He sat between my feet and waited for ice cream and chocolate from the chocolate dip to fall and ate it. He was very cute.

Rain!After 35 consecutive days without rain, we received a sprinkle early this morning. We're supposed to have more rain today with maybe a thunderstorm, woo woo! Everything was dying, so I hope that the gardens and the lawns spring back to life. My tomatoes could certainly use a boost. I water them everyday, but it's not the same. I'm looking forward to some fresh tomatoes in a couple of weeks to go with my fresh basil.
