A few pictures

But none of the apartment. Sorry, you're not getting that luxury until I get a bit more furniture. I have a good lead on a couch which is currently sitting just a couple of streets away from me. I just have to find someone with a pickup truck, which I understand can be a problem, as pickup trucks aren't that popular in Alberta.

This one's for Heather. I'm not sure why this machine exists, seeing as anyone who is small enough to fit in this rooster-plane is way too young to remember the Muppet Babies. But nonetheless Southgate Mall has placed this confusing ride in their building. And now I have the theme song stuck in my head, so I'll move on.

when your room looks kind of weird.......

So, while at the West Edmonton Mall I discovered an awesome store called Le Gnome. It's brightly coloured and highly priced. So I think I'll save up for one awesome item from that store. I don't know what it's going to be, but I definitely don't think it's going to be this poor guy. Seriously, who designed this thing? I'm thinking either a ninja or a really bitter and angry feminist.

....and you wish that you weren't there.....

Also at the West Edmonton Mall, I walked past a whole bunch of film sets for Christmas in Wonderland. It's becoming more confusing to go there, as the closer we're getting to officially hitting summer, the more fake snow and Christmas decorations are going up inside. But this caught my eye and I thought to myself: if I watch this movie and there are actors playing the role of a Salvation Army Band, I'm suing the producers for misrepresentation. After all, the movie actually is set in Edmonton, and we are the only band in town ( I think....Castledowns doesn't have a band, right?).

Just close your eyes and make believe......

And then a goat just wandered out of the petting zoo and started walking around. Unfortunately my camera only has red-eye reduction. Not blue-ish eye reduction. I guess the good people at Canon didn't anticipate moments like this. I can't really imagine someone at one of their brainstorming meetings saying "but suppose a goat gets loose in a mall some time".

....and you could be anywhere......

And this is for Heather again. Sorry about the blue-eye, but I don't work for Canon. I just push the button (that opens the shutter that makes the flash that creates the pictures that go on the blog that Susan built).

I like adventure, I like romance (someone please help get that song out of my head)

And finally as we were pulling out of the mall, we wound up behind these guys, and as we hit the freeway, we went east and they went west, prompting me to say "No! Your home is that way!!"

Yeah....so, pictures of the apartment will be up as soon as I get more furniture. Until then, remember me as the girl who, despite the fact that she's in her mid-20s, can still sing the theme song to Muppet Babies without a hitch. Impressive or depressing? You be the judge.
