: So July 1 isn’t special for everyone, I get that
I was chatting with a British friend on Skype tonight who asked if I was going to join a group watching the tennis tomorrow, and I explained that while I will be at the same bar (this is Abu Dhabi, after all) I will be there celebrating Canada Day with a bunch of, you know, Canadians.
Me: How could you forget?
Her: Actually, I didn’t. I was just hoping you would be more excited about Wimbledon and say yes.
Me: It’s pretty hard to trump Canada Day.
Her: Well …..
