The business meeting
It’s not as fun as I pictured it would be. I am about to go to a trendy resto to drink nice wine and discuss a project and I just can’t make myself enjoy it. I’d rather Jenn did this part so I could be in the shop. I need more Jay-Z blood in my veins. I’m a poor schmoozer and small talker. Business meetings, I’ve learned, are 90% small talk and schmooze and 10%...

Me trying to bike through narrow sidewalk
*Note: One should never bike on the sidewalk. It’s rude.
Angry Woman: You should really walk your bike, this is a narrow sidewalk!
Me: Were I to walk my bike I would be twice as wide.

Concerning my last post, I’d also like to add that my apartment is 480 square feet. As such, I’ve changed my daily realistic interjection to the following affirmation:
Phenomenal cosmic power! Itty bitty living space.

Me: I just ate popcorn, I should really floss my teeth.
*looks about for floss*
Me: Oh Darn! I left my floss in Montreal, I guess I can’t fl—
*spots extra floss in cabinet*
Me: …

Flat Tire Rescue!!
Sometimes my cute waterfront bikeride to Mimico to work in the wood shop turns into sitting outside of a gas station with a flat tire and a useless flat kit, waiting for my AutoShare knight in shining grey nissan cube to arrive.

"Like" DIMINI on facebook!
Yeah, that’s a good idea. I’ll send you a personal thank you… and maybe try to make up a rhyme with your name in the message. Ehhh?

I realized I’m only good with kids when I can teach them facts about science. Otherwise, I usually never know what to say to a kid.

DIMINI WEBSITE
Remember all those times I moaned about not being able to build a website? Well, I sat down and read a 600 page Dummies Book, then coded for two days straight and built my website from scratch, FTW!
Introducing my first website:
DIMINI WEBSITE!!
ps: Feel free to message me about typos. I’ve been coding for two days straight and am impressed I was able to form sentences at all!

Dentist
My girlfriend is off to the dentist right now. She plans on getting her teeth cleaned, x-rays, and demand to know how normal people without insurance and average incomes afford regular dental check ups.
Photos
I have a bag of about 7 disposable cameras from junior high to highschool. For some reason I have never developed them but have brought them with me every time I move. Today, I dropped off one of them to be developed and feel so weird. I pick them up Wednesday, I want to look at them by myself first. Maybe I’ll post some, maybe I’ll develop another.

Sneak Peek
So… Remember this?
Well, after you take it out of your bag (where it neatly fits), it turns into this!
Somewhat. Since this is a sneak peek, you are looking at a still unfinished DIMINI MINI. All excess leather will be trimmed and the wood will be properly treated. Pro feature. The legs snap in with magnets! Better photos are on the way. I actually *ahem* have a photographer flying...

Wine
I’m studying wines for my new part time job. I don’t mind, I like learning new things and I find all of the geographical and technical information to be rather interesting. However, what the fuck do “youthful licorice notes” taste like? Whenever I try to taste such things in wine, it is like trying to do a Magic Eye puzzle. In both cases, I end up feeling badly for the...
Vista Print
I ordered my business cards online cause they were a million dollars cheaper, and was walked through the process with a customer service rep from Jamaica. VistaPrintsneakily tries to sell you something left and right throughout the ordering process and I wasn’t buying. However, the sneakier customer service rep was like, ‘Oh girl, you see the tote bag on page 4?! It’s real...
