Thirty years ago today
I only had cereal for breakfast on Friday morning because I was still recovering from breaking my fast with junk food.
Nancy called to tell me that the place on Elmgrove was taken and I was disappointed. I made a long list of numbers from the Star classifieds.
Nancy and I fought over how picky she was. She would eliminate entire neighbourhoods for no logical reason.
I met a woman about an apartment at 105 Sunnyside. While following her down the lane to the back I was startled by a dog in the yard next door slamming viciously at the fence to get at me. But the basement apartment was quite nice. It was $600 inclusive, with free laundry.
Nancy didn't show up. I waited and looked for her for half an hour. I called to postpone my second appointment but the guy wanted to cancel it. I went home and Nancy was there. We went out to look at two more places and got stood up at another.
