Called the passport office this morning, and nobody answered. So I presume that they were not open today, so I wasted another day. This is getting really depressing...

Tomorrow, trip to Toronto to get that passport done at whatever cost. Well, not really, I do have a monetary limit. Got my car now, so that's not bad, I guess.

I was sleeping this afternoon, and close to the end of it, I heard some rumblings outside, like if someone came into the suite or something. I was a bit concerned, obviously, but ended up thinking that it's probably the neighbours next doors or the carpet cleaning guy on the hallway. When I woke up a few minutes later, I went out the door, and find Alan walking out of the washroom. Imagine my surprise to that...boy, that was totally unexpected. So he had a friend's wedding in Cambridge and came by to pick up some stuff, and he was dressed in this wonderful suit. We had a chat, and then he was gone. Minutes later, somebody knocked on the door and opened. And they were his father and brother, looking for him. His brother certainly looks pretty young to me... Anyway, that's that for the surprise of the day.
