sky of grey, and sea of brown

twenty-seven years and one million words

Calgary, 2002.04.05

Talk about seasons. I jumped from 16 degree weather in Vancouver to -7 degree weather in Calgary. And it's "sky of grey, and sea of brown..."

I managed to get a local phone, today. I had an old Fido handset from my time in Toronto, and wanted to get a new SIM card for it. But the fellow at the counter told me it would cost $25 for the SIM card, and a new phone would be free. So now I have a new phone that's half the size and weight of the previous one and its battery outlasts the old one by a factor of three times. Silly consumer culture!
