Self Check-out?

So yesterday I came home and was soooo tired from the rest of the week that I just watched some tv and went to bed. Very exciting, I know! I didn't even really have supper.

Went and got a hair cut today. Yay, no more bangs in my eyes. She blow dried it after and so I think I got charged for a cut and style cause in the end it cost me about $35. That's ok though, it looks pretty good still. I then went for a walk.

Nowhere on the Alliance church down the street does it say what time the services are! Guess I'll send an e-mail to the pastor (whose contact info I got off a visitor's guide) and find out from him, otherwise I'll go Anglican for the next 8 months cause that's the next closest. Maybe I'll check that one out too.

I went and bought some stamps... finally! I've been meaning to do that all week. I'll be able to send out cards, postcards and letters now so we'll see when I get around to that.

First time in this Safeway. I'm not sure but I think I might like it better than the IGA here. Too many stupid people working at the IGA I think but I think they're all new hires, they all look really young. It's still the closest though so it'll be my main grocery place I think. Anyway, at this Safeway they had a few "self check-outs". I don't know how that works to prevent theft but I liked it in that I can't get mad at a slow cashier this way, just the slow people in front of me but that's not so bad. Had to get them to punch in the safeway club card number since I don't have one of my own though. So with this gadget you ring your stuff through and swipe your air miles and visa yourself and they just pack your groceries. Kinda neat.

On my way home I ran into a couple guys my age who asked me if I knew the bus system out here. I just kind of laughed cause I've only been here a week. This started a bit of a conversation. The guy I was talking to was from Moncton, NB and was telling me (after I stated I was from Saskatchewan) that the Wheatmonkeys (from Saskatoon) were playing at Paddy McSwiggins tonight so maybe I'll go do that tonight. It'll give me a bit of a chance to meet some new people while releiving some of my homesicknes by seeing someone from home.

Guess that's all for now.
