Finito!
April 23, 2007 by Gail
I finally completed my 2006 income tax return online and Netfiled it. I’ve been procrastinating on that for ages, but I told myself I shouldn’t book accommodations in Reykjavik and Paris until the refund is in my bank account. That’s my next step: book Reykjavik. Since Icelandics celebrate their day of independence on June 17 (the day before my birthday), I’d expect prices to rise and and availability to drop around that time, so I’d better not procrastinate on finding a place to stay!
This afternoon while I was walking down the central corridor of my office floor, I swear it smelled like rain. After a decade in Vancouver I know exactly what a rainy day smells like, and by the time 4:30 rolled around, the skies were the colour of charcoal (how disorienting! — my face is still sporting a bit of a glowing sunburn from yesterday) and the heavens opened up. Whoa Nelly! Deluge! We went from the sunniest and driest of days to the wettest and darkest. It was more like tropical rain, though — warm and quick torrents, then stopping suddenly.
I would’ve taken a picture, except the Pentax was still wet on the inside and ruining rolls of film. I’d taken it with me to work to find a camera shop at lunchtime that would take it apart and clean it, but it looks like my best option is to taken it to a repair place at King and Dufferin. They’re only open during business hours and a few hours on Saturday, but at least they do the work on-site — it sure beats sending it away for 3-4 weeks.
