I'm not embarrassed......

......That's just who I am.

So my wonderful friend Melissa contacted me and said one of her friends is going to be in France for 2 weeks and is going to be going through Paris. She asked me If I'd like anything from Canada.... how sweet of her!!!!

So at first I said no thank you... I'm fine. But then 2 days before he was leaving I was looking for something specific and couldn't find it at the supermarket. Also.... I was running low on one of my bear necessities.

So... I wrote her back and said... I actually thought of two things I could use... if you don't mind of course. Now I told her... I wouldn't ask if I didn't want it nor if it was readily available... so of course it's random.

The next thing you know her friend is adding me to facebook so we can coordinate a time and place to meet... and the message he writes as he's requesting my friendship is:

"I might be your deodorant messenger."

OKAY... so what... I asked for deodorant. I have been using the same one since like grade 7 and really like it... it's like 'my scent'. And yes...there are some aspects of us that don't grow old...such as the scent of my favourite deodorant... Lady's Speedstick- Raspberry flavour. In addition to that I asked for Decaf-Earl Grey tea. Apparently you can buy it here somewhere?! Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough... but I was happy to get my Tetley tea.

Thank you so much my dear friend Melissa and Noriko for taking the time to go to the store, for the money you spent, and for allowing me to meet your friend. Thank you Joe for being a sport and bringing these goodies with you all the way to Paris for me! It was much appreciated... and no I'm not embarrassed... I'm HAPPY, SLEEPING WELL, AND SMELLING GREAT!!!!
