I have an article out in EnRoute magazine which is the mag they have in the back of the seats in Air Canada and though I have not seen the entire thing exactly I have read the quote they used about my trinket I bought in Indonesia. If you see the article this all makes a tad more sense but I’m not going to explain the whole thing. Well, on second thought, I will. They asked to do an interview and whether or not I had any great things, souvenirs I had bought on some trip I had taken. The only thing I had bought ever really, that would be remotely interesting was this little piece in Bali. Well, we did a thing on that and the quote they used was, “I bought this statuette at a market in Bali with my ex-girlfriend. Maybe it means I’m a bit of a romantic. I keep it on my desk as a reminder of the time we spent in Indonesia.” Couple things. Ummm, not true! I wasn’t in Indo with a girlfriend. No. 2., I bought it by myself “for” an ex. And lastly, I keep it on my desk as a reminder of the trip, not the ex. I’m quite disappointed about this particular misquote and considering I just got married – and yes, for all you wondering, am loving it very much – but this quote sounds really creepy to me. So, I just wanted to clarify this more for myself then anyone else but it just really upset me. Pissed me off more like it but whatever. Alright, that’s done. Now I just gotta go explain it to the wife. The thing’s going in the trash now. HA HA!! DISCLAIMER! Just joking about that last part.
