So I have just finished being house manager for the VERY LAST TIME IN KATIMAVIK and I think it went quite well. I mean we did not put dates in spaghetti, salmon bones in tagine or make a yam and avocado purée so I think it is safe to say that we have eaten much worse. I always enjoyed house manging but there are somethings that I not going to miss. Never again will I have to pretend like I cleaned the bathroom or act like I cared when we ran out of soy milk. Anyways,this past week I got the honour to house manage with L.A, meaning I successfully house managed with all of girls in my group. Now this usually it wouldn't mean anything to me but recently I have gotten the rap as the promiscuous gentleman in my Katimavik group and I do not believe it is entirely warranted. It is true that I have slept in all of the girls beds here in Alma (including my PL's), that more often then not I will strip tease to Olivia Newton John's Physical and it yes I can sometimes be found in outfits that put Adam Lambert to shame but other then that my slate is clean. I don't think that it isn't so much that I am promiscuous but rather the fact that the other guys in my group are so un-promiscuous. So to make a long story short I am not in the wrong it is just everyone else around me.
The thing I am going to miss most about house management is grocery shopping. Something about buying food for 10 people brings out the best in people. Back in Newmarket, Shoshana and I went to the grocery store decked in matching outfits, which consisted of pink spandex and a jean shirt, so going shopping is always a fun filled experience. This past week with L.A was no exception. We went to the usual Maxi (le panier le moins cher) and we got right down to business by attracting the attention of everyone around us by being as loud and obnoxious as possible. We had one old guy come up to us a condone us for being English saying "YOU ARE IN QUEBEC" and a second creepy old man who told our PL Emilie that she looked far to young to have children of our age. 
Another part of our House Management duties was picking a theme dinner and we had a grape night. We made everyone cover themselves in balloons before the could eat.


It turned out pretty well.... 

Can you guess who this is? Well If you don't know you will have to come back to my blog tomorrow and find out. The mystery person will be revealed in a 6 minute home video which includes, yes the balloons, a knife and a skateboard!
 
Oh man, will I ever be checking back tomorrow to find out who that is!
