First, I realized when I called Delta about my flights that my return flights were no longer in existence. That was very bad news. I was not going to receive compensation for the 200 dollar discrepancy since they were already giving me a full refund and that's all they could do. I am lucky my flight back was also a return package (it was cheaper than a one way for some reason) so I had different flights booked on Feb 9th. Whew.
I was pretty messed up about it though, so I decided to insure my car and get out of Langley. I went to the insurance place and they said I had to pay 600 up front or 510 depending on if I got plates or permit... I wasn't expecting that! Apparently you can't just insure your car for a month (I found a loophole later though).
So now my home freedom was gone as well. I was so eager to get my car out again and see everyone! Hearing this AND finding out I would have to wait an ten extra days for Berlin AND finding out the cat was sick put me in a foul mood :(
I was sitting on the computer talking to Dean moping away, when he suggested I take the bus out East Van! I hadn't done that in AGES. I was driving out while I had my car for the year, so the two-bus-then-Skytrain trip would be nostalgic for sure. I thought about it and decided yes. It was time to go to East Van.
I brought the Whiskey and some Ginger Ale. I made it in good time and got to meet some new kitties! Dean's hair was blue!
They had two cats, so we tried to make the big one Santa
The whiskey looked cute but made it hard to tell how much was gone...
The cats were so friendly :)
Dean lives with a Ninja. An actual ninja. It was fascinating. He told us stories about scaring people in parks while doing ninja training hide-and-seek stuff. It was most excellent! I tried to watch Oh Brother Where Art Thou, one of my favourite movies, but I was too drunk and had to go throw up then I passed out.
