paying for a phone in Canada

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2023.10.01

I've learned - thanks to my Mum - that I'm still paying for the prepaid phone I used for two weeks in BC this summer. There goes $100 I'll have to replace. 8(

Anyway, happy October, Internet. Month ten already -- this year's been a bit of a blur.

rand()m quote

It has always seemed strange to me...The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.

—John Steinbeck, Cannery Row
