On the lam

First off: oh my god, my Crackberry is amazing. I am blogging on it now and it just keeps on surprising me with all the shit it can do. For example: it actually drove from Abbotsford to Hope this afternoon while I had a little nap.
But back to this whole on the lam thing: see, I am currently in Penticton for a couple of days of R&R before I meet up with my mother-in-law who lives here. Nothing against my in-laws, I just wanted a little me time (to celebrate my one month anniversary of marriage) before I head back to work.
The trip up was typical. Five hours of basically either street racing, or being stuck behind a tourist/rig/camper.
I just want to point out that I totally killed the funboys in their Audi between Langley and Chilliwack. I don't care what you drive. I have the skillz, son.
Penticton is nice, though. Checked in, read some In the Garden of Beasts on the beach and dozed a little. I still can't figure out Hitler's ascension to power and why the Americans were so spineless for so long. I guess I have more reading to do.
Went to Ginza Sushi and had a kick ass meal like I had last time. I must confess I was sort of like "Sushi? In the desert?" but lo, it is so good.
It's beautiful here. I love it. I can't believe people live here full-time. Cor.
That said, the hordes of terrible tourists have yet to fully descend on this little town, so it still retains it's small-town feel.
UPDATE: the blinking red light on my phone means I have some sort of message. I like it. I initially thought I just had a really festive phone.
Well, that's all the news for today.
Why are you making me go back to work?
