Déjà-Vu

Hello!

My bath lady wasn’t here today; it was my Thursday guy with an apprentice… A Spanish speaking one… A Cuban guy who’s been living in Canada for only 3 years!! This is more awkward than having an old school mate as a bath person…don’t laugh, I have often fantasise about such a meeting…it goes pretty well… but back to my Cuban guy...

His French was the broken type with a heavy Latino accent. What do you want?! I’ve been here 36 years my French is borderline Euro-Quebecker type, nobody can put their finger where it is from. I think that what made it more confusing/strange was that he kept speaking Spanish to me…..No hablo Spanish dude!! He kept on telling me about how bad the situation in my country was, I kept on stating that I wasn’t aware because I hadn’t gone back to my country in 14 years….it was a weird situation….

But wait! At around 11AM (30 minutes after they had left), walks into my place my regular bath lady!! What gives I asked her… She told me she was going to give me my bath. Been there, done that I said! I explained to her what had happened and she was baffled by the whole situation. She didn’t understood what had happened! I told her that if she wanted she could get me naked again and washed me again…well she thought about it for a sec but then decline politely… She just said she was going to find out what had happened.. Sounds like a fight to me…I hope somebody tells me something…

Take care! 

ps  Boy did I get some genealogical info today from my country. I sugar coated it to my mother but I don't think she likes being corrected...Tell you a bit more on my next post
