We spent the weekend in Banff. I find it hard to say that word. So, I don’t. The roads weren’t the greatest on Saturday morning, but it was still a smoother trip than say… flying Air Canada to Cuba without a passport would have been. It was also a fair bit colder.

The premise was to a)not be at home, and b)eat food. Easy! And so it was.

Without going into a lot of detail, we scampered around the Banff Springs Hotel without missing anything. No unlocked door left unopened. I even popped my head into the staff lunchroom. We ate some food at the hotel, at a lovely restaurant called the bison (twice, how obsessive!), and also stopped in on a cafe/bakery called wild flour. It was all nice. Not having to worry about driving there and back in one day, especially nice. Hotel reservations are great.

Today was not a particularly great Monday. I didn’t eat enough in the morning and my blood sugar levels dropped. I went to grab a late lunch, but it was too late when I blacked out at the top of a flight of stairs and endo’d down them. Hmmph. I was paying attention to my body, but apparently not close enough. I think I’ll be ok when wrists and ribs and necks and backs and bruises recover. I’m still young and nimble. I left work early, despite the ever escalating stack of work that’s overdue. I’ve been working so hard lately, I’m just wearing myself thin. I know the company I work for cares about me. Sort of. Some of them. Well, I’m well known? I’m certainly not paid well enough to compensate me for starving myself to the point I fall down stairways on my way to grab a lunch to eat at my desk while I continue working. I’ll put it that way.

Behold!
