Today I biked all around this town to find some kind of a costume that could pass off as a deep see diving suit. I didn’t find such a suit (or boots, or a belt) but I did have some fun exploring the thrift stores. The best ones are “My Favourite Thrift Shop” at Fourth Ave @ MacDonald and Value Village on Victoria Drive @ 48th. If I was shopping for actual clothes, I would have bought something. So, I’ll be back. Especially since when the wardrobe people who dress me for acting roles ask if I have X, Y, or Z, my response is invariably no, no, and no. I’m not what you would call a sharp dressed man. I’ve found my niche and have, perhaps a little sadly, stuck with it. I did manage to buy a tie today, so that’s something.

So I can actually start moving into my new place as of August 15th. Oh the pain, the pain of it all! My new address is 3890 ALEXANDRA ST VANCOUVER BC V6J 4C4. Isn’t that exciting? This old place may look pretty barren for the birthday auction, but for all the goodies on the block. I think this is going to be the most impressive birthday auction ever in terms of stuff, what with both Stewie and I whittling down our possessions in anticipation of the move.
