Now that 2008 and more specifically January are in full effect, I feel obliged to share a few things which I deem very pertinent to those who bother to read this.
First, I mailed off my application for residency in Spain to the Spanish consulate in Toronto in a traceable package that arrived at it’s destination at the beginning of this last week. A package which included my passport, so I am grounded here in Canada until this thing follows through, but as the lady in charge of visa’s there won’t be in until the 14th I don’t have any idea how long this will take.
Also worth mentioning is that I washed my car for the first time in nearly two years yesterday and while cleaning I would hardly say it was worth it, but now a day later and seeing it’s shiny brillance (and four unique tones of green thanks to various accidents) I must admit that I am duly impressed with how gratifying a clean vehicle can be and that my car entirely merited the effort expended.
That said, I now need to figure out what’s going on with my cars headlights, the only ways that I can currently turn them off (ever) it by:
- disconnecting the battery
- removing the headlamp fuse
Both options involve my going under the hood before and after every time I drive, it’s really more than a little annoying and in light of that I think on Monday I’ll take it to a garage and have them fix it for me.
And lastly I need to mention that I have been trying to make some extra spending cash by doing inventory at Nor-Alta Aviation. It’s a job that I never wanted to do and I am so glad that it’s nearly finished.
