There was Something in the Air Yesterday

Training has hit a small snag- my shoulder is buggered up for some reason. There was no specific injury, just a slow progression and now I can't lift even my coffee cup with my right arm. Good thing I'm left handed.

Other than that, things are a-okay. Little behind on numbers, but when am I not? Spade is progressing nicely, as is cane. Its been mostly air spade up to now- I had planned on working out some of the kinks last night after class, but Sifu Wiebe wouldn't let me try with my shoulder the way it is. Not a bad call, now that I think about it.

Met the nicest lady in Edmonton yesterday. I was a bit early for a site meeting, so I stopped in a small hole-in-the-wall cafe. Got a coffee. I had no change, so when I pulled out my debit card she absolutely would not let me pay. She said come back tomorrow, pay then. I want to see you tomorrow. But I don't know when I'll be in the area! Then you come back whenever you're in the area and pay. Come and visit.

Wow. Complete stranger. There were several other ladies in the cafe at the time, and none of them seemed surprised. When they saw my flabbergasted look, one said- she's a very special woman. Don't worry about it, she trusts you. Wow.

So after my meeting I found some change in my car and stopped in to pay her. She raised her eyebrow when I walked in and said, I thought I told you not to worry about it? I wanted to see you tomorrow!

So, if any of you are in the Gold Bar area, there is a small cafe on the corner of 106 ave and 50th street. You should stop in.
