Just went outside to try to catch a glimpse but still too much in the city and clouds were rolling in.

Perseid shower promises to illuminate night sky with meteors.

Today is our 10 year anniversary! Yes 10 years ago we were getting itched at UBC, dancing to Chubby Checker and Kung Fu Fighting, and watching shooting stars and northern lights. I had a lot more hair back then and what I had was still brown! A lot has happened in 10 years: 2 kids with one more on the way, bought a house in the burbs, new job (been over 5 years now), some traveling, and on the down side a kid battling cancer (she is all good now). We did manage to avoid the minivan although came close and got SUV. I wouldn’t change anything and I still look at my wife the same way and like I said on our wedding night, in Vancouver there are the mountains, the oceans, and the skiing but compared to Kim, they mean nothing to me. Here’s to another 10 years.

In case you missed some of the gear during the Olympics, Wilson (who apparently were one of the approved manufacturer) is selling some of their left over stock. They only have T-Shirts and it is today and August 21st only at the corner of Jacombs and Cambie in Richmond. $10 a T-Shirt. Tax included.

Been on a low carb diet since last week. Now it is not really a real no carb diet but a low version that I made up. Essentially I don’t eat any potatoes, rice, bread, cereal, and desserts. After a meal, I am quite nicely satisfied but about an hour before the next meal, I start to be so hungry… poor me. I did lose about 5-6 pounds last week but now I am stuck at the same weight.

I drove by Earls on Fir and Broadway on Friday and noticed the nice line up of cars in their parking lot

In case you don’t see it well, there is a Porsche Cayenne (bit cut off), Porsche 911 (or is that a Boxster?), Mercedes, BMW 3 Series, and a Lamborghini. I didn’t realized Earls had gotten so expensive. I guess they have to pay those “models that serve”…
