I bet you're wondering what I've been up to lately. It's been a crazy couple of weeks, and since my summer is only going to get busier, I better get started in on the details.
Last week I was in Quebec, then I came back to Toronto only to leave a few days later for Montreal. I got back two days ago and I haven't had a minute to myself yet.
Coming back from the Montreal Jazz fest, I decided to take a night bus back to Toronto. I've done the Coach bus before, and had a great experience, but this time, I had no such luck. Seriously, I got on to a packed bus only to find that the only seat available was next to a small, dirty man who smelled from 8 seats away. I have no way of explaining such a rancid, horrible, distgusting smell than to liken it to the smell of fermenting bile.
I think I would have suffocated, or thrown up the entire 7 hour trip home, were it not for the kind and selfless actions of a lovely young man, who gave up his seat to me, and endured a long, horrendous ride next to Bile Man.
I was sitting 6 seats away, yet I could still smell the horrible stench every once in a while, and the only way I could get through it was to throw my trusty safety blanket over my head and breath in the heady perfume that lingered upon it. I know it's odd that I'm 26 and still have a security blanket, but I'm telling you, to this day, I always just called it a travel blanket. Something to keep me warm while on air conditioned flights and such, that is until I had to be on that stinky bus ride. That's when I realized my blanket's full capabilities as a safety blanket, and held on to it for dear life.
My blanket is a turquoise version of the above Chambray paisley blanket. I picked mine up in Miami, but you can find it here on the cherishandjoykidstuff.com website.
I'm never leaving the house without my blanket again! I could have died you know, good thing my blanky saved my life!
My friend Kris is preggers! Yay!
