Do we get to start a countdown now?

It’s 25 degrees out, beautiful and humid, yet I’m sitting in our apartment wrapped in a blanket and sweater. No, it’s not the flu. It’s our landlord going into overdrive with the air conditioning. I guess its great for the people upstairs, but down here in the basement without that much sunlight gets a little chilly after a while.
Toronto has been warm and sunny all week, which is a welcome change from the grey and not-as-warm it was for a little while. I’ve been standing inside Staples for a large part of it (or what seems like a large part of it), playing the “selling crap” game. Work has been going good, but sometimes it gets a little slow, so then you have to turn work into a “game” to pass the time (I don’t think my supervisors really approve of this way of looking at it, but I’m sure they don’t complain when I make them money). You get points for selling people things that they didn’t know that they needed. You get even more points when people initially turn something down but eventually change their mind.
What is getting me through work though are thoughts of getting back to Newfoundland soon. I’ve been annoying my co-workers with stories about the island that they don’t really understand. I can’t wait to get home and see everyone.
