after a really really long search I have figured out how to access my Blogger again!! yeah me. But do I have anything interesting to say, probably not, I could write about my wedding planning, but really do I have time for that? Plus my wedding is almost here so a little late I think. But I will think of something.

Tim Horton’s, the Family Restaurant

2010-06-11T14:15:00.000-07:00

Unbelievable is all I can say, I wasn’t feeling great today so during my lunch break I headed over to the London Drugs to get a little something for my stomach, then I thought why not get some soup from Tim Horton’s while I’m here. So I go in and place my order then move to the corner counter to wait for my soup and that’s when I hear a man’s voice yelling.

It was something along the lines of “shut that thing the F** up” (note - when I turn and look he is screaming at a lovely family of four with two adorable kids around the age of 3 and 6mths so when he says “thing” he is referring to the child). I was instantly shocked, thinking... that didn’t just happen. The father of the family said something back, however at this point I am not processing it as I am totally perplexed as to why yelling man is even yelling as the kids aren’t even making any noise!!

As the mom was setting up the kid’s food she also said something to the yelling man (I’m thinking, good for her!), meanwhile what can I do, I want to help, but you have to understand there isn’t a lot I can do I am completely useless whenever conflict happens. My body overloads on adrenalin and starts shaking, first in my legs then in hands and it had already started.

I found myself processing everything in slow motion and then I went to survival mode. I gripped the counter to steady myself and then I went for the full lean as I wasn’t sure how much longer I could stand (ridicules I know. I wasn’t even involved, why am I shaking!). As I steadied myself against the counter another customer who was leaving said to yelling man “you should leave” (he didn’t).

Keep in mind this has all happened in a short period of time. My soup still hasn’t arrived and as I leaned on the counter I called out to the staff. Finally the sandwich maker comes over and said “sorry your food is coming” I said “yeah, but is there a manager because some customer is yelling at a family in the dining area and the manager needs to do something” as I say this I am pointing directly at yelling man.

My soup arrives, the managers are consulting and I think ok I have done as much as I can do, the managers will handle this, as there is probably a procedure for them to follow. So I change my focus to my shaking legs hmm maybe it wasn’t the best idea to park half way across the parking lot. One leg at a time I made it to my car I had to sit and wait for 10 minutes before I could drive.

As I sat, waiting for the shaking to slow down, I thought did I do enough, could I have done more? Its lunch time at a national chain which most would consider a family restaurant (isn’t one of Tim Horton’s main charities a children’s charily!!)… if you have that much of a problem with people that you can’t restrain in public from blatantly yelling at them, then maybe you just need to stick to the hooters and pubs of the world or better yet stop leaving your house period.

Yeah I am talking to you yelling man!

Breath of Fresh Air

2010-06-10T14:28:00.001-07:00

I am sure nearly everyone has been awoken in the middle of the night for some reason or another; snoring, cat fight, babies, kick to the shin, really the list can go on and on. But I think I would take any of the latter over what woke me up the other night.

You have to picture yourself there, my head was nuzzled into the pillow perfectly, the window was cracked just enough creating the perfect temperature and the fan had a light breeze with a bit of white noise. I don’t remember if I was dreaming or not, but I do remember that moment of realization between being asleep and being awake…it was like a dream, a dream that I was being poisoned.

I felt myself choking the taste in my mouth was like a dry nastiness really I felt like I was being poisoned I have no other explanation, well other then what was actually happening. My lovely fiancée who remained fast asleep beside me had gas, yes gas, gas so bad that it woke me up not first by a sound or the smell but by the taste! I could TASTE it; I am gagging thinking about it.

When I finally had the realization that I was actually awake I went into survival mode, I shoved my face into the blanket. No, that didn’t work; I sat up and tried to take a break; No, still didn’t work. I had to leave the room, I found myself in the living room sliding the balcony door open and gasping for air all I could think was this really coming from him, he’s not a big guy.

I finished my night off on the couch, it was the safest bet, the next morning he said to me “what happened to you last night”, in disbelief I said “are you kidding me what happing to you last night…did you S**t yourself!”

Re-learning the game of golf

2010-05-17T14:02:00.000-07:00

After years of parents, grandparents, friends and boyfriends saying “keep your head down”, ”lean forward”, “lean back”, “bend more”, “bend less” oh and my favorite “keep your eye on the ball”. I finally decided to get the advice of a professional, yes that’s right all you correction givers of my game, you are not considered professional.

It’s almost unbelievable in one lesson how much I was able to improve my game, the irony is all the instructor did was show me the correct techniques for grip, swing, stance and a few other things. With this knowledge and a little skill my improvement was amazing. I can’t wait to go again, I am positive this will take my game to a new level. Kudos to my instructor, let’s see the mad skills I will have by the end of this!

So the point is ladies, stop listening to everyone who thinks they know what they are doing and sign up for the golf lessons from a real professional. Then next time you’re on the course and your golf partner suggests to you something that will improve your game, simply say thank you and after you drive that ball, turn and smile.

Balance

2009-08-26T23:28:00.000-07:00

So here I find myself it’s almost September and it’s almost been a year since my last post. Lots happened so far this year. I spent time focusing on my relationship and myself and now those two things are fabulous.

My relationship is stronger then ever, we are so in love it hurts. He is still a boy and he still does his annoying boy things like leave the seat up, crumple his face cloth into a ball beside the sink and walk through the house with his shoes on. However he makes up for it all with my morning kisses goodbye and my evening kissing goodnight!

Myself, well that’s been ongoing for almost a year strict focus on what I need for me, my vision board is going strong and things I put up have been coming true without me even realizing. I have focused most of this year on my health and me getting healthy. It’s crazy what you can do when you find that focus, its one thing to think, wish and dream and it’s a whole entire other thing to Do! I feel great.

So what does that leave me with... well I can't really say because there is a policy saying that I can't blog about it... but you get the drift... why is it so hard to find balance in all aspects of your life... and if I do find balance in the one that is currently out of balance will I lose balance in my relationship or myself? This is what worries me.

I have started a not so out there journal (you know I have gone old school and purchased a pen and paper) as I have started to track what I call "incidents" at my out of balance part of life. It’s crazy how restricted I am online vs. on my physical paper, as when the pen touches there is no holding back and it flows like crazy. Plus I don’t have to worry about any repercussions of having put something out there in the world for everyone to see. This one is for me.

Staying in a relationship

2008-09-01T02:53:00.000-07:00

Have you ever stayed in a relationship longer then you should have? I wouldn’t believe half the people who said no. I think my problem is I am a Libra and if you know any Libra’s you know they try and make everything work, everyone get along and everyone happy. The problem with being wired this way is you end up attracting people who need to be taken care of, nurtured and mothered. And lets face it no women wants to mother her boyfriend... that doesn’t make us feel sexy... no it makes us think why can’t we date someone who is more of a man. I need to focus on me, not everyone else, I need to make me work, me be the best I can be. I was driving in the car today and I remembered something Sarah said to me a while back... she said “Noelene, stop volunteering, this is ridicules how can you do this for these people when you are barley getting by yourself?” I took it to heart and she was right, I was volunteering for stuff thinking I could help, but I couldn’t because I first needed to help myself. I think that saying rings true in many things, you can’t help others until you can help yourself, and you can’t love others until you love yourself!! So where does this leave me ... unhappy. Needing to take action?

Start with a small goal

2008-09-01T02:18:00.000-07:00

I am going to set a personal goal of more blogging for me. I think it’s good for me as when in high stress I need to write it down or talk it out and I find I am more honest when writing into a blank white page opposed to going to the therapist. I don’t know why but I always feel the need to say I am doing better then I actually am when talking to the therapist... Yes I see a therapist, ever since I had my first mental breakdown at work... apparently its fairly normal to have a breakdown at some point in your life... If I had known that before my breakdown it may have been easier to deal with. So as a way to help myself move and grow I will blog, however it may be tricky as the problems I have are high stress situations that are work related and as my work has a blogging policy (I can’t blog about work), I am not sure what I will blog about. I guess I could still blog about all the crap that goes on at work and I can use different names and a different work, however I think that may just be more trouble then its worth. Ok people hold me accountable for my goal.

Karma

2008-03-04T20:10:00.000-08:00

So I have always believed in Karma and your energy and all that stuff, however I have been really stressed out lately and I have just been a bitch to people and Karma has bit me in the ass for it.

The other day I took Shawn shopping and after loading up the car I left a nasty note on some guy's car that was parked behind me, he was all the way in my spot and there was a mark on my car (thinking from him hitting me). So the note said something along the lines of learn how to park.... yada yada ya.

So back to the karma biting me in the ass - we are driving back to drop off the groceries I said to Shawn that the note is going to bring me some bad karma... and driving we hit every red light on the way back, I said well if that’s all I get, I am getting off easy.

I spoke too soon, needless to say we arrived back at Shawn's and started to unload the groceries I picked up the six pack of Campbell’s Hardy Beef soup all wrapped in plastic and went to put it on my shoulder and BAMB some nasty stuff was pouring out all over the back seat of my car and all over my sweater and arm.... I started gagging it smelt so bad... oh the smell of rotten meat... It had to have been open for awhile and did I mention the smell... oh the vial smell!! Oh and the maggots... ewww gross.

So needless to say karma kicked me in the ass. You think I would learn after I had to frantically look for a car detailer that was open on Sunday who would clean my car... as I was painstakingly reminded of the episode of Seinfeld – you know the one with the BO, well Jerry come smell my maggot infested car now...

Needless to say I am putting my nasty note write away along with my flying finger.... :)

I need the karma gods to see the good side!!

Long Time

2008-02-05T19:01:00.000-08:00

Wow I haven't been on here forever... I am doing a "house cleaning" of emails, web pages and all that stuff if you will. I just finished deleting my MySpace account because lets face it I am never on it. I also up-ed my privacy on my facebook so my pictures aren't randomly pasted across the world wide web and I am trying to remember all the many other things I have signed up for but don't use... friendster... remember that.. I wonder if I can remember my login, will see. There was also another one that I used to be on... way before myspace, facebook and friendster... it was aimed towards African Americans... and I for some reason felt the need to be part of it. So next time I blog I hope to be down to;
1 personal email (maybe two)
1 web based page
1 Blog site
and that’s it!

Pain in the FEET

2007-09-23T22:11:00.000-07:00

Oh my god my feet hurt, they really really hurt. I wonder how much walking I did today? I am in Calgary at a Vender event and I have never walked so much in my life! Oh the pain, I should have got my gellins!

NEW CAR

2007-05-01T21:51:00.000-07:00

Yeah me, I got my new car!!! It’s about time I have to say! Literally one week before I was supposed to get my new car my muffler on my old car fell off. It’s the trade in people, how are you supposed to trade in your old car when the muffler is dragging along the ground and you have a new car fragrance that is also know as exhaust. So I had to get it fixed $$ that sucked. Then when I went to pick up my NEW 2007 VW Golf standard, cruise, power everything, ac, tilt, heated seats and more and they only gave me a half tank of gas!!! HALF TANK what the fuck is that! I just bought a new car!!! You think you could give me a Full Tank! So after picking my car up on Saturday I watched it sit in the parking lot all day on Sunday as I didn’t want to waist any gas as I am now currently broke from putting down my first payment and paying ICBC all my money. But I love my car!

Monday Night Madness

2007-02-19T20:51:00.000-08:00

Monday seems to be THE night to watch TV it has every show back to back to back! Just getting the new season lined up. So tonight we have Prison Break can you say...Wentworth Miller!! Then there is Hero's, more a Paul show then me. Then my fav is 24 you know it’s a good show when you don't even need hot men to hold your attention.

Off TV for a minute I have 9 new Sid Dickens plaques and they are Beautiful! I hung them over my ugly ass blue couch, and I am sitting on my ugly ass white couch looking at them...have I mentioned I need some new furniture. I found the couch I wanted and I wrote about it in my blog along time ago however I found another couch that I love even better but its even more money.. go figure. So as I have the new laptop and the new car I don't think I will be getting the new couch any time soon.

I had my first day of work in my new position and can I say...Work it baby, work it. Yeah that’s right it was a crazy work out today as my new desk that happens to be upstairs did not yet have my computer and my old desk...down stairs did and I was working with my new team AND my old team...so this required many trips up and down the stairs so like I said work it baby, work it! But all is good because by 5:30pm they finally moved my computer up stairs and I was ready to go.....home.

not possilbe

2007-02-18T22:07:00.000-08:00

I don't think that it would have been possible for me to do less then I did today...I still have not changed out of my pj's. I have not had a shower and if I am going to be honest I have not brushed my teeth yet today. I did nothing but sit on my ass and watch tv, and i even did that half ass, i was to lazy to change the chanel so I was stuck on one chanel for 5 hours straigt...it was TBS so I watched movie after movie I don't even remember what movies they were, here is what i remember, mean girls, cheeper by the dozzen, the wedding planner and i am pretty sure there was something before that but i can't remember what it was... I did manage to order pizza for dinner however i didn't order it via phone...my laptop was closer and therefore i ordered it online. Are you beginging to truley see the depth or lazyness that was incured today...

its not like my whole weekend was like this it was just Sunday I don't know why either...maybe because i have been burning the candles at both ends for work and freinds and i just wanted a day to do nothing...and now i have done it. Friday i went to a hanky panky sex party where I spent way to much money on stuff... actually I wanted so much stuff I ended up booking my own party so I can get some hostes gifts. If you are a close personal friend look forward to an invite. Anyways I got the coolest thing, its a candle that burns at low heat and then you poor all the wax over your body or over your partners body and its like an oil - i havn't used it yet but i am pretty excited. Saturday Paul and I did a bit of a clean up in the appartment and then we met up with Rudy and Emmy for dinner and bowling. We went to the spagati factory ( i havnen't been there forever!!) and i now remember why, its not that great and its packed with familys! Well after that we went bowling and it started off good with me getting a X but then I got a few / and it went down hill from there - hey I never said i was a good bowler.

So the weekend wasn't a total bust as i did go out...I think everyone is deserving of a day of doing nothing every so often as long as its not a regualr thing.

Can't Sleep

2007-02-12T23:55:00.001-08:00

Well its 11:31 and I can't fall asleep and it’s bugging the heck out of me because I have a long day tomorrow at work. I have to be there early and stay late, so all I want to do is sleep but I can't get to sleep! Maybe it’s because I ate to late or maybe it’s because my bf is tragic at gift giving... I was lying in bed and all I could think about was what he just gave me for an early V-day present. Yes I know "it’s the thoughts that counts" and believe me almost every time I get a gift I say that in my head...but I suck at holding back.

If there is anything I need to learn its holding back, can one be "too blunt"? I like the "gift" I would like it more in someone else’s house. Some times I feel like I am living a Simpsons cartoon – you know when Homer buys Marge the bowling ball – but it keeps happening. Two years of gift giving for Birthdays, Anniversaries, Valentines Day, Christmas...tragic tragic tragic. It hasn’t been all bad there was one time that was really good – that was my last birthday and it was sheets for the bed (yes I was excited about sheets) but I think I understand now that even when you say “honey I would like ...” its still doesn’t work because you end up with a giant rock that’s hollowed out and has a light bulb stuck in the middle of it, but hey its supposed to get rid of negative energy...hmm not sure if its working.

The weekend is over

2007-02-11T20:43:00.000-08:00

Well it was too short yet again! I didn't do to much but let me tell you about it. Friday I left work late (big projects - big changes) then met up with Lindsay and Derek at the cheese and had dinner then went home. All I could think about was going to bed as I am still fighting this cold off. So I had a little sleep in Saturday morning that was much needed, then Paul and I met up with James and Paul did some set ups on James's new laptop...so me James and my mom all have new laptops...fun fun. After some computer set ups we headed out to Surrey to hang out, we ordered some pizza and watched the game...got home super late and had a nice sleep again. Sunday I met up with Bernice and had brunch then some dersert it was some good eats! Now I am just playing around with all these new and different programs on my computer...i love the new laptop! Have I said that before.

Still SICK

2007-02-10T10:28:00.000-08:00

I am still sick and hating it. I hate walking around with my mouth half open just so I can breath, DAMIT! But as you can tell I am not bitter by it. I see all those healthy people walking around town with their fancy trick of breathing through their nose - could you rub it in anymore!

Have I mentioned I LOVE my new laptop (yes i know its not a mac) but I still love it anyway, similar to your mom loving you even if you were a bastard child. I have been catching up on Paul's my world pod casts and I am doing this backwards....Have to say possibly not the best plan, I should try and find where I left off and go from there...but it was so long ago I figure it would take way to long to find it.

The sun is pushing through!!

a whole lot of new

2007-02-06T14:13:00.000-08:00

So its a NEW Year and I am typing on my new laptop and waiting for my new car to be built! and starting my New job soon. I am soooo happy I have my own laptop now!! No more getting all my web pages deleted by Paul everytime he wants to update his computer AND now I can stay on the computer as long as I want as when Paul goes to bed I can move to a different room!! Sweet! Yes its not the Mac i wanted but hell this was WAY cheeper and it does the job that it needs to do.

My car is on the assembly line as we speek and I am sooo excited I don't know if I can wait much longer or if my current car will even last much longer. I can't wait to be able to drive to and from work and not have to worry about anything...other then random drivers who may hit me. My new job (same company) starts on the 19th of this month so I am excited about that as its a great oppurtunity and its allowing me to buy a new car a new laptop and a new wardrobe!! I also have a New cold this is why I am at home right now.

Can it be done?

2007-01-30T00:36:00.000-08:00

I read this comment on CL R&R and it made me think…and that’s always a bit scary;

Seriously. What a retarded, stupid, moronic discussion. Are you just a penis with a guy attached to it? No. You're a human being. I have women friends. Why? I like them. We have fun and talk and hang out. I have man friends. Why? I like them. We have fun and talk and hang out. Are you such a one-dimensional idi-fuckin-it that you can't understand that you are human first and male SECOND?

That's right, baby. It's just a sex organ. It's not your ontology. (Go look it up).

WHAT THE HELL; Can it be done?

Have you ever met that girl who hangs out with the boys and I’m not talking about the Tom Boy “girl” I’m talking about people like me I’m a girly girl, I have tons of girl friends and they are FABULOUS but I like hanging with the boys. Of course there are more me’s out there that like to hang with the boys, however everyone has their own motive for doing it, like the trigger comment above “I like them” could it be just that simple. I don’t think it is just that simple because if it were then there wouldn’t be 30 plus posts attacking the guy who said he won’t have girl friends as “friends”.

How many different levels of relationships are out there? Friends, friends from a break up, fuck friends, friends with benefits when not in other relations, friends from the old days, friends with attraction, friends who just like them, who really knows everyone has their own reason.

For me boys as friends goes back quite a few years however when I look back I honestly don’t see that I got a lot of really good relationships out of all this friends for whatever reason. Believe me I have listed a few and there are way more and I have to say I have very few friends left after the fact. Could this be truly because it can’t be done or is it just something I am doing…

Ever since I hit high school I found it much easier to just hang with the boys. The best reason for this back then was not so much “drama” now a days I can’t say that’s the same reason I hang with the boys because let me tell you they have their fair share of the “drama”. Shawn – I am talking about you!

Who knows if I can come to any conclusion to why most of my friendships have ended with these guys maybe it’s because of me or maybe the friendship just fizzled. However I bet if I really delve into this I would find a reason, however I don’t know if that’s what I really want out of this.

I didn’t just hang out with the boys I had girl friends and I went through lots of those too. However I have some solid ones by my side today. When I think back I remember tons of names with some wild stories that I dare not tell and then I think of name of some amazing people and think wow I wish I still had them in my life.

DM childhood boyfriend, turned school friend, turned nothing (I moved away)

CT, crush turned to a first kiss (I moved away)

CR, used to help him try and pick up girls, turned to my first real kiss

IS, tutor turned boyfriend, never heard from again

KO, I like to block this from my memory (not sure what that was…my first grad)

DB, boyfriend, turned friend, turned make out friend, turned friend with benefits, had kid with someone – we all move on.

CL, friend turned boyfriend, turned cheater, turned tried to be friends, turned hook ups as the years pass, turned random phone call up dates

KH, rebound turned biggest guy I ever met :O, turned talk to ever so often

SR, co-worker for two years, turned confident as his girlfriend fucked around with my boyfriend (CL), turned boyfriend, turned to going our own paths after a year, turned to friends for awhile, then gradually the phone calls didn’t get answered on my end and they stopped being made on his end

MB, co-worker turned friend, no attraction, always thought he was gay as never tried anything ever, was awesome to hang out with listened to me and gave great advice….drifted apart, random phone calls

SF, good friend, go shopping hang out, then he got married – don’t see so much anymore

MH, another (not sure what I was doing phase)

M?, word of mouth…

SC, co-worker turned friend, turned to finger licking good, turned to friends, turned to councilor, turned to friends most of the time, turned to friends that like to just hang out

PL – boyfriend period.

Hmmm, this really didn’t answer any of my questions at all, I was hoping to find a deeper understanding of myself and open new doors to new long lasting relations…who am I kidding I haven’t even listed half the people I know on this list this only proves…

Halloween

2006-10-27T19:20:00.000-07:00

I Love Halloween!!! BOO

I have to put together a costume in very little time...hmmm any ideas?
For work I am going to be fabulous!! and my partner in crime is going to be High maintenance...Kind of an inside joke.

Burn Out

2006-10-04T23:46:00.000-07:00

Well I’m nearing burn out time.

Busy has officially became ridiculous. Can you remember the last time you craved sleep so bad....I am talking REALLY craving “the sleep”. Are you a smoker….let me get you to where I am. You are on a flight to who knows where, it could be a 5 hour flight it could be a 22 hour flight but it doesn’t matter because every minute feels like two hours as soon as you got on that plane. Your sitting in the middle seat right by the bathroom and then they airlock that door. Oh yeah you can taste it in your mouth as you wrap your lips around it. The tobacco so fresh, not yet burning you crank the 711 lighter and the flame dances in the back ground as you lean into it, your eyes close and you hear the light crackle of the tobacco burn and slowly you hit that euphoric state. The FIRST drag. But not yet…you can’t smoke on the damn plane!

So can you understand the craving. I want to sleep so bad but my flight just won't land and when you think it’s about to land and you can get off to take your first drag you aren’t quite there yet. Yeah you’ve touched down but you’re not off the plane, your just taxiing around the fucking tarmac. I can’t stop thinking about every possible thing I did today and what needs to get done tomorrow. That one last thing. This is why I can't sleep - too much taxiing around the fucking tarmac!!!!

I need to get away but not on someone else's holiday you know the girls trip or the never ending plethora of destination weddings or the cabin in the woods...take me to a fucking spa and do it now! Drop me off leave me alone and don't pick me up till I am done. Believe me I will let you know when I am done! It will be right after I have the perfect night’s sleep, you know that sleep where you don't wake up ten times a night and think if you booked that flight or added that car or approved those slides...I don't want to be able to process a thought by the time I am ready to come home. It will all just be muussshhh.

I love this video - so watch it

2006-09-24T22:07:00.000-07:00

Get this video and more at MySpace.com

Internet anyone?

2006-08-27T12:08:00.000-07:00

Shity at home we have no internet...
Our computer got a virus and then we didn't have enough money to fix it right away so we temp. Suspended our internet...that was the end of June...it’s now the end of August. However we did fix the computer, but we are on a budget and the internet is not yet part of that budget....however it soon will be once we pay a few more things off.

I was hoping to get a lap top for myself because Paul does strange things to our computer and I can never seem to get on after. So my work is having a great lap top sale but I really shouldn't...oh the demands!

Tammy went out and bought the lap top at our competitors...(thanks for the support)well she had to pay more...for the same thing...oh well.

We are also saving money for CUBA - Apparently we may be going to Cuba next year for Nicole and Shane’s wedding, but she really hasn't communicated to much to us...so who really knows if its really Cuba or not at this point?

I think I would rather get married locally then abroad...

INXS in Vancouver tonight!

2006-06-01T18:43:00.000-07:00

Don't you hate it when you LOVE a group and you want to see them sooooooo bad in concert but you can't seem to get tickets.

But you hear those people on the radio win the tickets to the concert you want to go to sooooo bad and you just know, that they are not as big a fan as you...you should be the one who gets the tickets.

So I am not that diehard fan going to INXS tonight...I am the friend of the radio version.

I do have the new INXS CD on my IPOD. Does that make it better?

Need to think

2006-06-01T18:38:00.000-07:00

Why do I continuously do "stupid things"?

I should learn from my past "stupid things". Actually I think I do learn from the past I just think I smoked way too much pot in high school that I have no memory left and I forget what I have previously learnt and then I make the stupid mistake again!

Note to self - not only should I think before I talk. I should also think before I type!

Couple vs Single

2006-05-30T18:56:00.000-07:00

What's better - being part of a couple or being single and free to do what you want?

I didn't hate being single, I defiantly enjoyed the freedom and the different things I did all the time and the different people I hang out with.

Being in a couple, come home sit and watch TV...go to bed, go to work, come home, have dinner, watch TV.... kind of boring. Maybe it’s just the couple.

How many times do I have to say it

2006-05-26T18:55:00.000-07:00

STOP DELETING ALL MY SAVED WEB PAGES.

ok so I pretty much know how to turn the computer on and then off again. But Paul likes to re-format, re-stucture and change change change the damn computer!! So everytime I go on, msn is gone (I have to re-download it) Paul C's Pod Cast/Blog is gone, all mine and my sisters blogs are gone!!!! Everything...I spend so much time saving all these damn pages and then he losses them...

So I think I get smart and write them down on paper, with pen! and now thats missing after he has re-done something to the computer that has caused everything to be LOST yet again...

There must be some way I can save this some place where he can't touch it.

I can't wait till I get my lap top!

Why save random....emails?

What better did we have to do on the 25th, 26th and 27th...

December 25, 2004

Noelene said you lied about the box. I can't for the life of me figure out why you would have lied about it. I hate her for lying to me. Damn her and everything she stands for. If she is right beside you right now........I love you Noelene:)

I am going to do some arts and crafts today. My project will of course be a Shawn box and a Noelene box for I am quite confident I will be receiving a lot of gifts from you guys over the coming years....I can't wait. You guys should know that I usually take a medium and am not a huge fan of pink. I believe you have known me long enough to know my likes and dislikes. That is why we are best friends.

Noelene has been cc'd for obvious reasons. She needs to know that I don't love pink and I take a medium. Oh yeah, I may also need dentures. I should have all my teeth pulled and have a full set of dentures. I believe removable teeth will make me popular with the fellas.....hahahahaha.....sorry Jesus, that was unholy of me.

TEEJ (OF TEEJ, NOEL, AND SHAWN)

heheh you said i like to box the tami

shawn

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Thanks Tami for being a true friend.... But it is not necesary for you to force Shawn to make me my own box or folder but it really won't mean the same thing. Its you he like to box.

PS shawn, there are many cards from other people on tami's desk along with some fun other things Please advise if any of this appeals to new box items.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

i thought you were being DIRRRTY
but i now know that u mean to put tami things in a box

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You do like to box the Tami. So this would be a perfect time.... for example, Tami is in the kitchen with Sylvia doing the lunch thing. So the desk is empty...Oh I know what you want...ok done.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

heheh you said i like to box the tami

shawn

what the hell has been going on while i was at lunch?

>>>>>>>>>>>>

heheh you said i like to box the tami

shawn

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I must ask that you stop stealing from my desk. If there are things to go in my box (hahahahaha) I will be the one to supply them. What goes in my box (hahahahahah) has to first be approved by myself.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Thanks Tami for being a true friend.... But it is not necesary for you to force Shawn to make me my own box or folder but it really won't mean the same thing. Its you he like to box.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I hear you have some stolen objects from my desk. Thanks for making this the worst christmas ever. That magnet was what made christmas special for me. I also hear there may be stolen goods out there that have already made it to yourself, or are perhaps on their way to you. All you have to do is ask and you may have things to put in my box. I will not be friends with thieves such as yourselves. I feel as though I don't even know you guys anymore.

Teej (of Teej and only Teej)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Noelene,

I am finally seeing what is going on here. You are stealing from me yet you tell me about it. You are trying to make me hate you and therefore eventually hate Shawn. I will have you know that I will never turn my back (or box) on Shawn. You can stop stealing from me Leon, for I will supply him with the goods. It is time to cut out the middle man....goodbye forever Noel. Thanks for introducing me to my new friend. Your services are no longer needed.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

What are you talking about...you would have never ever know the snowman was missing if it wasn't for those medalling kids AKA Sly. You don't even know if anything more is missing, and you even checked. How important are these objects to you if you don't even know they are gone... At some point you will need to let go and realize that it is only a material thing and the bond that holds this friend ship together is much stronger.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

WHERE THE HELL IS MY LIPSTICK?????? I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU STOLE IT FOR MY BOX I WILL KILL YOU. IF SHE HAS ALREADY GIVEN IT TO YOU SHAWN, MAY I PLEASE HAVE IT BACK.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Please ignore my previous email. The lipstick in question has been located. Shawn, I must ask that you no longer communicate with Leon. She is a liar. A liar and a thief. She will only hurt you in the end. Or steal from you. Do not turn your back on her for she will steal your goods or stab you in the back.

I will give you a few moments to say your goodbyes. You no longer need her for I have lots of fun stuff planned for us.

Teej (of Teej and Shawn)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

I am very sorry that you are feeling this way Noel, but from what I hear it
won't be a problem after about a month or so. I am told that is when Shawn
will grow tired of me and you may have him all to yourself once again. I
have advised him that perhaps we should cut all ties now to avoid the
awkwardness in a month or so. If this is a pattern of his Leon, perhaps we
should both set him free now and you and I can build upon our friendship.
It's really for his own good for he has become addicted to the Teej too
quickly and will probably burn out in no time. Noel, I must ask that the
next time you are at his home you steal the "Teej" box for I do not want him
rocking himself to sleep each night while holding my card and poppy.

Noel, you mean more to me than life itself and it pains me to see you this
way. If we are to ditch him I must ask that you bump up the computer use
for he feeds a need that I have and I will need you to do the same. There
must be a minimum of 10 emails daily and you must be prepared to converse
with me constantly via MSN. If you can guarantee these things I am ready to
move forward with out friendship. If you cannot, then I am sorry but it's
me and Shawn....at least for the next month anyways.

In closing I would like to say that you guys have given me the best week of
my life and I will cherish it always.

Your friend,
Teej (of Teej, Noel and Shawn)

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Hello frineds I once had.

I think my problem is a bit different then you both. Yes you both are
compulsive obsessive people and I am not. My problem is a bit different
then yours. Yes I know you both thought I was perfect but its true I am
not...pretty close mind you.

Well I may not wake up every morning and rush into work just to open my
email because I don't have a computer at home, and I may not get up early
every morning even on my days off just to see if I have any mail. But I do
have a Problem...Yes I know its hard to comprehend that I Noel of no one has
a problem. But its true, I do.

Well so I get a bit jealous from time to time, I sure its really not as
compulsive as you both. It's not like I follow people to see what there
doing with out me, or hack on to peoples emails to see if there talking
about me. Well maybe just one time. But that was a special situation!!! My
boyfriend just cheated on my 6 times really...the poor guy, I think they
have now released him from Riverview. Anyways, don't worry about me I will
keep my jealousy to a minimum, just because I slowly get pushed out of the
picture doesn't mean anything, It won't bother me I won't hunt you both
down..My roommate is a cop, I don't have access to a gun...

Don't be angry with me because Its a sickness and I have no control. I am
not angry with you because of your compulsive disorders. Sure we may be
different and we each have our own disorder of some sort. But this doesn't
mean we all can't be friends.

Noelene

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Dearest Noel,

You are correct that our initial intentions were in fact to stalk each other. But clearly we have found a best friend in one another. There is something magical that you cannot deny. As for stealing, I have informed Shawn that I will gladly give him things to put in my box. He understands this. Therefore thievery is not required. Unless Shawn still wants you to steal stuff for said box. In that case it is fine. It makes it a little more dangerous.......That way I will always wonder what is in my box.

Noelene, stop trying to medle in our lives.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ok, I really don’t know where to go with this any more? Shawn do you want me to get you stuff for your box or not? Please just speak freely and let me know. Or do I have to start going out and purchasing new things and pretend they are Tami’s so you can carry on with your day-to-day life.

I feel that you both have somewhat steered off track of the intent of the original phone conversation. I am pretty sure Tami was supposed to be looking for you or finding out where you lived and or worked and I was not supposed to help her. When I came into work the following day the understanding was still clear but then Tami asked for Shawn’s email address. This was never off limits and truthfully she harassed me all day until I gave it to her.

All I what to know is….WHEN…tell me when the real stocking is starting?

PS. I think Tami may have stole my headset…I thought we discussed that office supplies were off limits.!!! DAMN YOU.

Have a great day.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You think that's funny. I just came to my mother house and discovered my brother and one of his friends drinking.....guess what? You guessed it. Teej now has a crown box that is being renamed the Shawn box. I swear to god I damn neared soiled myself. FYI Shawn, this does of course mean you will need to start giving me things to put in said box. I expect many things from you so I am already looking for a second box.

I can't wait to receive all the stuff from you.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

Shawn I just want you to know I walked over to Shawn at our works desk and he also has the same Tami box...its a bit scary really, so many people with identical Tami boxes...what is next Tami Tattoos, Tami shirts, Tami shoes??! The only difference is that he seems to have alcohol in his Tami box apposed to actual Tami paraphernalia.

PS. Stop getting me in trouble

PSS. STOP GETTING ME IN TROUBLE

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

FYI....I kinda like the "Tami" tattoo thing. Shawn, any chance of that? If you really were my best friend you would do it.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

By "we" can all learn a lesson, I think you mean "you" can learn a lesson. The lesson being that you must not mess with the Teej. You have no one to blame but yourself for what has happened to you this afternoon. This time it was your headset, next time I may tamper with your breaks. I told you before Noelene, you can't mess with mine and Shawn's friendship. I believe it was an act of god that brought us together. Stop being jealous and leave us alone. You have Michelle. Shawn is now mine.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Please don't hate me. I may be bipolar. I do not know what I want anymore.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I am not sure...maybe because my email is crap...but does it matter anymore!

>>>>>>>>>

alright fine. thank you for keeping me entertained. who is this dog that you speak of?

>>>>>>>>>>>

ok, because you have OCD, this is the last email I will send you....so that mean you will receive nohting after this until tomorrow...Shawn do you understand this. Go walk the poor dog, before people get worried.

ps..i like the genital warts

>>>>>>>>>>>>

You should know shawn is alive. he has just made contact. i guess that means i no longer need you. thanks for everything. if he does die though, i will once again welcome you with open arms....but only if he dies.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Dearest Noel.

I truly am sorry about the bastard. (the bleeding asshole guy, not Shawn) Is it wrong that I kinda hope Shawn bleeds from the asshole a little bit? Sorry Shawn, but you angered me. Angry Teej has come out to play. I hope someone doesn't break into your home and shove your ipod up your ass.

I love you Noelene.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

So typical of him...I understand and its ok...

PS ... Still shaking from bastard on phone.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

he is home but is playing with his ipod. i'm not sure if it really is an ipod or if he has named his genitalia "ipod". i am not sure of what he is actually playing with. I am gonna say that it is the electronic device for he is my best friend and I will not think of him treating his body like an amusement park ride. That would be wrong.

I must now go home and play with my cat. By cat I mean Ruby, and not my genitalia...hahahahahaha....god I crack me up. Sometimes it's so hard being this hilarious. I can barely stand myself.

Till tomorrow Noel. Please don't forget to tell me about the bleeding rectum for I am giddy with anticipation.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ok really this is the last one,

Thank you for your concern I do look forward to discuss at great length tomorrow. Again I don't know if Shawn really is home or not because not once was contact made with me...but i would not expect more..

go walk dog.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Please note....since the un-necessary removal of my head set...there has been some system problems. For example the receiver part that I talk into is now positioned at my nose...customers just can't seem to hear me. There also seems to be some plastic thing protruding from the right side of my head.

Please remember that no Tami or Noelenes are to get hurt, destroyed or tossed aside in this game. All items that are removed are to be cared for like it was their own...for example they can be placed in a box for safekeeping. We can all learn a lesson from this traumatic experience.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It was very funny. In fact I am still laughing. How come your email doesn't show what you are responding to. Therefore I can only assume that you are saying that the funny thing was the crown box that my brother has.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

lol, that is really funny...hahahahahahhahaha

well maybe i had to be there.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ok so I am not sure why I posted that and I am hoping there are know doubles....

Bed Buddies

2006-04-03T23:52:00.000-07:00

Does anyone else share this problem? Since moving in with my boyfriend I fear going to sleep after him. Maybe he is just the lightest sleeper in the world - I don't know but I tell you I am not quite. I am used to having my own room, my own bed, my own covers and my own Stuff.

So I get the how to share thing... and it's not that I don't enjoy it, it’s just that I feel bad if I disturb and it sucks.

I watched 24 then some other random programs and Paul went to bed maybe 15 minutes before me. I give up on TV, go brush my teeth, wash my face and all that jazz and tip top into bed, right over the creek in the floor and into the bed. All is good I get to bed find the position and lay there for a minute…hmmm I seem to be antsy. I roll over, I throw the covers off, I try laying on my back.

So yeah, I woke him up…after that I tried lying still for I don’t know how long and I just wanted to get up and scream…every bone in my body wanted to move. So I find myself here in my living room trying to get tired but in reality I am wide awake….maybe it’s the time change.

Mooo

2006-04-03T23:48:00.000-07:00

I think Dairy products hate me. This is new - I want my milk, I want that damn mustache on my face. WHY I TELL YOU WHY!!

Soy it is.

Brilliant Idea's

2006-03-22T23:01:00.000-08:00

Piss off - I was typing my title and when I was typing the "s" something happened and it just published the half title. So all through the week I will have things happen to me and I think that would be great to write about and this continues...

Then I get home and sit down in front of my computer and I can't remember a thing. Kids let this be a lesson - Don't do drugs! Even if it’s just pot...as you will lose something very valuable .... your damn short term memory.

Really do I have to walk around with a book and a pen and write them down as I think of them...

Tony and Tina's Wedding - Vancouver

2006-03-12T17:05:00.000-08:00

Well Saturday night me and a bunch of people from work went to Tony and Tina's wedding. (for those who don't know its a wedding put on by actors) Well my bosses son is in it and so we got a group together and what a production it was. I would defiantly recommend this if you have a sense of humor and liked to get involved. If you are just going to sit there all night (then this wouldn't be your thing). It started at a Church on Burrard and Nelson the outfits were hilarious and the characters were well defined. I had a riot, i can't wait to go again, there are so many different things going on there is sure to be something you didn't see the first time. After the very non-traditional church ceremony we jumped into a cab and headed over to the Queen Elizabeth Theater (restaurant) Where the dinner took place, and the plot just keeps unfolding. I have to say through out the night I was thinking of hiring all these people to come to my wedding so no one would be board... All in all I was impressed and had a great time.

What Happened

2006-03-12T17:02:00.000-08:00

Shannel just called me... she says "hi, have you cried yet" I laugh, "I am cring right now..." FUCK this day sucked. I got up went to yoga and then I was like what can I do...hmm, Breakfast (that made me sad), Ikea, sad also...then for no reason my chin started to shake and now I am walking around with a role of toilet paper.

Quite honestly I am a little in shock, and I am sure no one else is. When I hugged you good bye on Friday, my eyes teared up but I turned so you wouldn't see, I wore my gray cap on Saturday and went to work, I was busy didn't think to much about it. Saturday night I went to Tony and Tina's Wedding and all was good. So I get up and go to yoga, come home have a little tiff with Paul and then went to bed for two hours (in the middle of the day) so I get up Paul is gone to work and its a buitiful sunny day out. I watched Walk the line (great movie)cried a bit during that and now I am doing ok. Why the hell is everyone busy today!!!!!

New Chair

2006-02-28T23:42:00.000-08:00

Wow I can't believe that tomorrow is March 1st!! That’s crazy, Paul and my first month in our new apartment together has passed. Good thing we got most of it organized in the first couple days because I have pretty much been sick since we moved in. I went to the Dr. and they said I had bronchitis they gave me meds that were not $$$ then I was ok for about three days after I finished taking the meds and then BAMB sick again and way worse. Poor Paul has made friends with the couch as it’s his new bed. I went to the clinic and they sent me to my family dr. started talking about getting a cat scan....WTF...go to my family dr. in Delta find out they are moving office to Fleetwood, may have to find new dr. don't know if I will do that drive every time I need a check up. Anyways family dr. gave me meds for a sinus infection more $$$$!!!! But I have been on this drug for a couple days now and am feeling much better. Let me see if I still feel this good after I am off the drugs.

Wow I feel like I have been planning my whole life around my TV programs lately. There are so many shows that I watch and its like a standing plan I have on that day so I always have a guarantee of doing something...although I felt very stood up last week when Lost was a re-run of the first episode. Hello slap in the face. Why do they do that, I have been a loyal watcher - screw the people who haven't don't help them out!!! they can go rent it.

Anyways it goes something like this... yes its sad:

Monday: 24 - totally addicted I love Jack Bower and am on the edge of my seat every episode. I can't stand the president I hate him and I commonly want to throw something at my TV when he is on.

Tuesday: Gilmore girls - ehhh I am not totally loyal here but enjoy it every so often, if I miss it I don't care.

Wednesday: Lost - Bitter sweet, pissed off that they keep playing re-runs come on stop it and get back on track.

Thursday: Survivor - I have the ruggedly hansom an well aged Terri he found immunity on exile island last week so I am hoping he takes me all the way $$$, The block - is my side show after survivor, I love the Australian ackcent (how do you spell) I am telling if you I could I would bottle Kristy’s voice up and put it in a bottle - Love it. (Also can be found on Sunday, like the blow off factor there)

Friday, Saturday: Break - move to the out doors and partake in real people situations

Sunday: Desperate house wife’s - or to Paul AKA horny house wife’s...what can I say they are on Hyades till March?

So someone who watches this much TV you think has a problem and should cancel there cable and get out more. Well its not like I have to be home to see these shows its like a back up plan if you will or more of a way to sit in my new chair.

Quick Week

2006-02-17T22:49:00.000-08:00

Last time I bloged it was Friday - surprise surprise guess what day it is...

Where did the week go? Hmm Monday Noel doesn’t really remember too much couldn’t have been that exciting.

Tuesday, oh Tuesday was Valentines Day – oh shit just remembered what I did Monday – went to work came home – stopped at Safeway (didn’t run into anyone famous this time) grabbed some butter – well I actually got I can’t believe its not butter because its pretty good but I am sure it has some crap in it that’s supper bad for you. So got some butter and some V-day cookies (that taste like sugar rocks) then came home – late. Paul had a Valentines dinner waiting for me. The table was all done up and the candles were all lit up. Very romantic atmosphere, he had two heart shape boxes of chocolates and a red bag. A Red bag, which contained the best movie ever, how could you possibly know that? Napoleon Dynamite – Sweet. It was a very nice night, we did this Monday as he worked Tuesday…Which brings me back to;

Tuesday, after work I met up with Kristy Anne, I went to her new place, which shockingly is two blocks from Shawn on the same street, Soon to be two blocks from Tammy on the same street. Kristy Anne and I hung out and watch some of Dr. Phil via satellite had some guy who was a total player and the girls had no idea…dumb blonds, then Paula was on doing blind dates. Dr. Phil turned Donahue!!! After all that excitement Kristy Anne and I headed to the Shark Club…it was ok. Felt strange as it was loaded with couples on there dinner dates. We had some beers and chatted over a good meal. After eats we went to Winners and wandered about – I never ever find anything in that store! And then we went home, but this time me to mine, and her to hers.

Wednesday – I know I did something – I just don’t remember what I did…. thinking…. ok yes the Cheese Paul and I met Lauren and Lindsay at the Cheese. We looked over Lindsay and Derek’s pictures from their resent trip to Australia. Very nice pictures!! Looks beautiful! After eats Lauren went to the mall on the hunt for silver shoes and Lindsay came back to mine and had a look at the new place. She liked, approval earner her a heart shaped box of chocolates – we have sooooo many! After that Paul and I chilled out and watched lost then went to bed.

Thursday I had a Dentist appointment that I totally fucked up – I didn’t take my pre-med and I have to go back next month…. nice drive all the way to White Rock and then back for nothing. The rest of the night I was on my own and I have to say I have fallen addicted to the newest Survivor – I have Terry (the old guy) in the pool at work lets see how far he goes – after survivor it was off to bed.

Now its Friday and today after work I drove out to White Rock yet again, this time to do some last minute baby sitting for Corri and Shawn – that was a breeze, I am now home and ready for bed, but Paul’s already in bed and no matter how hard I try I know I am going to wake him up – I swear I could be a friken feather and I would wake that boy up – how he sleeps with me is really beyond me?

Clock work

2006-02-10T20:45:00.000-08:00

Interesting Friday. Nothing really interesting happened during the day but I was funny. I don’t even know how to explain it. I woke up, I was fine, I went to work I was fine, I really struggled to do things at work today I couldn’t keep focus on one thing, also I was having a lot of trouble just getting my eye’s to focus. I do have an eye appointment at the end of the month. Next week I have a dentist appointment. I finished my Biaxin XL today. Maybe that’s why I have felt odd. If you look up the side effects you will notice that they would have to film a short movie to list all the side effects the basic commercial with the man and women driving down the high way in the convertible listing may cause symptoms such as diarrhea and headache wouldn’t cut it for this drug. Maybe this is why I have been depressed today. I just have had this sad feeling like I was morning a death? I found myself fighting tears on more then one occasion for no good reason, you know the toilet paper ran out and that really upset me. I was sitting on the couch and Paul put on the hockey game and I just started to quietly cry…couldn’t tell you why – so I got up and went to the bathroom then went for a lay down on the bed.

I now feel better… can’t explain it for the life of me. Its that time of the month for me, I was on the Biaxin and I was sad. Stupid really, now I have this huge urge to go buy something to make me feel better. I don’t know what I want but I was thinking something that I can put together… Ikea… No I am sick of Ikea, I have to go return the blinds I bought. I am just frustrated because I can’t find blinds that will fit my huge as window…its huge. Everything pre-bought doesn’t seem to fit…hmmm I wonder if Walmart is open late… Is there a 24-hour Walmart around here? Maybe in Surrey? I could go buy some make up or a frame or something – Walmart has so much to choice from.

Talked to Shawn we are going for breakfast tomorrow morning. Strange we haven’t been for such along time. We tried to go last weekend but I was still really sick so I just parked it on the couch. I also talked to Michelle Y (bumped into her at Ikea) I wanted to go for Dim Sum before Shawn left for Australia. He isn’t felling it and wants to go to five point. I can’t complain I absolutely love five point. Its also weird because that’s one of our highest rated breakfast spots in the rating system and not that many of my friends other then Shawn like to go there. To picky of eaters? I don’t know exactly when Shawn leaves but I know its soon, my sister is moving into his apartment and he has gotten rid of most of his stuff. (don’t forget I get the chair – we looked way to hard for that) It kind of makes me sad that he is selling off all his stuff. It was months and months of shopping to get his apartment to the cozy place that it is. But props for him actually going through with it and moving there – I admire that. Well breakfast tomorrow and maybe some shopping for travel things… will see.

Done and done

2006-02-06T10:47:00.000-08:00

All moved in and unpacked. Caught a good case of bronchitis during the move, went to the dr. and they gave me some damn expensive medicine that really seems to work! So I am recovering.

Congratulations to Nicole and Shane they are engaged! I wish all the best for the happy couple! Can’t wait till she is back here full time! Missing you!

I need to wash my car it has turned brown….

The commercial doesn’t even do it justice.

2006-01-27T12:53:00.000-08:00

You know the migraine commercial where the lights are on and the noise is going and they hear every sound and the women looks like she is in so much pain. That’s not even comparable to how much pain I feel right now!

Busy times

2006-01-25T17:31:00.000-08:00

Why is it when we are at some of our busiest times in our personal life it’s also some of the busiest times in our work life.

I am tired.

5 Things you should know about moving

2006-01-23T13:41:00.000-08:00

This is the top 5 on my list maybe after the move I will have another 10 or more to add.

1. Don’t hire movers (There are very few good stories about a moving company…. your better off luring in your friends with beer and pizza)

2. Rental Trucks – Its cheep during the week and times when its totally inconvenient for you to move. Its very expensive at the end of the month, last weekend of the month and the 15th of the month. (Better off luring friends who have trucks with beer and pizza)

3. Start collecting boxes early – check out Craig’s list for people giving away free boxes, start collecting empty paper boxes at work. Go to the liquor store (tell them you’re a great customer who is buying a large amount of beer due to luring people for moving, they should help you out)

4. Organize before you pack – don’t just through everything you have in a box, it’s a lot easier on you if you get rid of everything you don’t need before you move (If you can’t do this your self (lure friends in who will do it for you – better yet ask people you don’t really like I am sure they will throw half your stuff away with out asking, or worst case scenario drink all the beer and you won’t remember what you threw away)

5. Find somewhere to live – before you lose possession of your current place. This is a common miss practice among many people (AGAIN I CAN’T STRESS ENOUGH FIND SOMEWHERE TO GO BEFORE YOU HAVE NO PLACE TO GO!!)

Well I hope this helps you in your moves. I would love to here from you on any common practice you use.

Interesting resolution tips for your sign

2006-01-17T13:55:00.000-08:00

Libra:
(September 23 - October 22)
Being born under the sign of love and partnership, it follows that your New Year's resolution should involve making a new commitment in this area of your life. The first step in bringing improvement to your love life is to be honest with yourself about your current situation. If it isn't working, Libra, have the strength to let go and move on. You deserve the best, and if you don't have it, commit to change.

Scorpio:

(October 23 - November 21)
There is a great deal of healing that needs to take place between yourself and a handful of people around you, Scorpio. Keep in mind that in order for this healing to take place, forgiveness needs to happen. This year, your New Year's resolution should involve forgiveness. Consider forgiving a new person every month, or maybe just one for the year. Either way, it will feel good and bring much needed healing to your world.

Compulsive buying

2006-01-16T11:56:00.000-08:00

I know I don’t have money to be spending on other things (especially new furniture) yet I went shopping this weekend and almost – but didn’t. I almost bought a new sofa with chaise lounge and ottoman. Yeah I know – but I didn’t. I shouldn’t have even looked. I know its wrong but man oh man I want it and I want it bad. Look its purdy…

My own clean sweep

2006-01-10T11:30:00.000-08:00

Well as I am moving I am trying to be very diligent and not to bring anything I don’t need. This is actually proven to be difficult in my small apartment while packing. I have more give away stuff then packing stuff and honestly there is no room for it. I knew I had a lot of shoes but holly crap I didn’t know I had that many – I’m sure no one knew how many I really had as I only sport so many pairs well maybe my roommate knew as she had no room for her own shoes.

So I am happy to say I donated over 20 pairs that are in great condition. It’s hard because I use the $1. a wear theory and so many of those shoes cost more then $50 and I am not even close to being half way to the $1. a wear mark! Good cause – good cause I have to keep saying that to myself – really I need them out of the house before I keep them!! It’s probably not even a good cause – who really knows where those donation boxes end up? Next thing I know its 3 in the morning and I am stumbling home from a bar and there is an East side hooker wearing my $230 boots!

That’s ok I am sending them anywhere and I will hope they go to a good home! As for all my other stuff I am working on getting through it I have 18 days to do it!

Found somewhere to move!

2005-12-30T10:56:00.000-08:00

Made it through most of the holidays and now I have to move. Well I can’t say its going to be that hard of a move as I found a big one bedroom apartment directly across from my current two bedroom apartment, so literally I will carry my stuff down stairs across the street to where a truck would probably be parked anyway and into the new building. I think I will just call on my friends to help – yes you the only person I know who reads my blog and yes you my sister. Thanks guys it’s really great of you to offer the help, I will be moving on multiple days to accommodate everyone’s schedules. So don’t worry we can make it work!

Anyone want to buy a nice bed frame for a double bed? $200 I would post it on CL but I don’t have a picture of it and I also don’t have access to CL at work.

Help me move and I may feed you - yummy...

Moving it fun!!!
Kill me now!!
I must be crazy!!

Moving

2005-12-21T09:56:00.000-08:00

(big sigh) I'm moving again. Well I was here almost a whole 2 years. The funny thing about this one is, Monday my boyfriend and I talked about moving in together maybe in March or April. Then on Tuesday my roommate said - bad news I am moving out - moving day Feb 1st. Wow that's quick. So now I have to figure out where to go. Now I could possibly stay where I am and just have my boe move in with me and I could move in with him but I really just don't feel to safe in his building. So I am thinking clean start together in a new place. So we are looking for around the $1000 mark 1 or 2 bedroom or 1 bed and den, bath tub a must and not on the ground floor. Added bonus - in house washer and dryer. I want to stay in Vancouver perf. Kerrisdale or Kitts. So boe can still walk to work. Fun fun

Added Christmas Stress can drive you to drink!!

2005-12-13T10:31:00.000-08:00

Ok if you don’t know this about me already I LOVE MY JOB. But wow I have been so busy with work that I haven’t even started half of my Christmas shopping. I have to get going on that and to top it off funds aren’t flowing since I got back from the UK, paying lots of bills!! So I guess I am a bit stressed and it’s silly really.

I’m stressed because I haven’t been able to decorate things completely the way I want them and I haven’t had a chance to get it done. I am stresses because I am not sure if I will have enough money to buy all my gifts I think that’s all I’m stressed about. But its ok, I know it will be fine, this has happened before and I always seem to work through things so I really shouldn’t be worried.

But you know what I have finished all the meetings and Christmas parties for work that I had to organize so that is a huge weight of my shoulders, now I can concentrate more on my own things. Wow 11 more shopping days till Christmas!!!!!!!

It was my ID 10 T problem!

2005-12-06T11:28:00.000-08:00

My Sister was so kind to tell me how to put pictures on, I feel kind of stupid at how easy it really was. But anyways here is James, Sarah and Me from there wedding in Wales on October 29th. She looks great doesn’t she. I miss them and they are going to be moving out here. So James sent me his resume and I am trying to help him look for potential work. So if anyone knows anyone who knows someone who would like anyone for a job as something like an HND Architectural Design & Technology job...

Well hopefully I can continue to put pictures on my blog, because its better that way!

Breaking Wind

2005-12-03T20:17:00.000-08:00

What does it symbolize once you have broken wind in front of your significant other? Does it mean comfort, true love or you’re just too lazy to squeeze your bum muscles so nothing comes out. I guess you could get up and go to another room but it’s a tiny apartment it doesn’t matter where I go, its going to smell everywhere eventually. Although I do think mine smell like roses... I think some people may debate me on this but...what ever.

My personal favorite is the cup and through. Those of you who don't know what this is I will explain. While comfortable snuggling together and you know that you are going to break wind...that’s when you take your hand place it over your butt cup the fart and then throw it in your partners face. And believe me it works, Many people are quite skeptic until someone does it to them. But I can't take the credit on this one; it was my child hood friend (Carmen) who taught me this. Those who know Carmen should not be one little bit surprised at this moment.

So the next time you are nuzzled up on the couch with your honey and you feel something coming on try the cup and through - it’s a great way to break the ice.

I am technically challenged

2005-12-02T17:01:00.000-08:00

Yes it’s true – well I guess the fact that I still can’t put pictures on here doesn’t say much for me. But that damn outlook account…

I had to send a huge invite out and I updated it – big mistake I some how cancelled it and then re-invited everyone- WTF. Yeah I’m looking good now!

Head is throbbing

2005-11-30T16:16:00.000-08:00

Ok anyone else going crazy over the holiday season?

I don’t want to shop anymore! I don’t wanna!

I am so tired of working all day then going to the mall and then going home and doing it all over again the next day! Hmmm is it worth it…

Tis the season

2005-11-28T14:10:00.000-08:00

Yes that’s right “tis the season” To trek up and down eight flights of stairs to get Christmas decorations because for some reason both elevators in our building don’t like to work.

So after that is when I take the time to realize we have way too many Christmas garb for our apartment and I spent over an hour getting it all up here. Then the next hour bringing it out of the boxes. To get me a little more into it I though hey why not listen to some Christmas music. Big mistake, so after going through all my CD’s and then just coming to the realization that I have no idea where the Christmas music is I just turned on the radio… another hour wasted.

Tree’s up (fake, so you would think the needles wouldn’t fall off) I had to decide on where to put it, hmmm not to many options…
1). Push against the wall beside the TV.
2). Push against the wall beside the computer.
3). Push against the sliding door beside the chair.

I went with options 2, and I think it’s safe to say no more then 3 people can come into my apartment at any given time.

LIGHTS!!! Wow so apparently as Kristy Anne informed me, she bought the cheep lights, so this means if one burns out they all burn out. So for the next three hours while sitting in front of the TV I pulled lights out and put lights in. Wow I can’t believe I didn’t resort to actually going to Canadian Tire and buying new lights (but I’m pretty sure they probably only sell the crapy lights anyway)

Ok lights are on the tree, I am going to bed. There is no way I am going to finish this today I am excused and coming very close to hiring someone to come and do this for me. I remember this was fun as a kid, what happened?

Addictions

2005-11-23T10:42:00.000-08:00

I think I have developed a new addiction. I have been waking up every morning and kind of thinking of it. Then I get ready for work or my day and all I can do is think of what it will do to me when I have it and how happy I will be afterwards.

Now I never thought I would be the type to start with this addiction as I never really thought my family had an addictive personality and I didn’t think anything was passed down to me. But then I stepped back and took a look.

That’s when it hit me – I’m dead wrong. My mom smoked for 10+ years my grandma smoked for 20+ years. My dad likes to hit the bottle and my brother well he likes Mary Jane. My sister is border line I am not sure if I would call it an addiction or OCD but I have never seen anyone be as fineness freaky as her. So like I said after stepping back and taking a good look and realizing really how wrong I was. I thought shit – I need it and I need it now.

I can’t continue on with out it anymore and if I don’t have it I know I will have a bad day! I just can’t function with out it. I never started at a young age It has only been coming into my life on and off for the last 3 years. It’s just so easy to come by now and there are so many different kinds the options are really endless.

I don’t think I can stop… am I going to start shaking if I do? Who would ever think one think could control so many of my thoughts…I never wanted to be trendy or follow the crowd. Can I please have a Grande non-fat Vanilla latte, not to hot.

Close your eyes and just taste it…

Oh the places I've been

2005-11-22T20:36:00.000-08:00

Well I haven't been anywhere that fancy. I went to Wales for Sarah and James's wedding and it was amazing. I wish I could attach a picture but I am still and Idiot and can't seem to do it. Really I need a blog page where its simple stupid for me to work. I can't figure this one out for the life of me.

aaaa Wales, it was raining, it was sunny, it was never hot! I was lucky enough to stay at Sarah and James's place or as they are now know Mr. and Mrs. Madley's place. But not so lucky for me so were some of there other friends (no names will be mentioned) but hell it made for a rough two weeks. I was amazed at how calm Sarah was for the duration of our visit. I am hoping she didn't go into break down mode after we left...but if I had to use one word to discribe staying there with these other people it would be..."painful". at thats putting it nicely!

I logged onto a blog of an x-co-worker and she had a pretty cool site - I think I might move shop over there. Wow this has been exciting.

Toes

2005-09-16T23:26:00.000-07:00

My feet are cute. Toes on some people are cute. Although I do have to admit sometimes when I see hair on guys toes its .. well its a turn off. But I never realized my fascination with the human foot until the other day when I noticed that my Big toes are abnormally larger then most peoples big toes... Then I started searching out people wearing sandals and throngs (side note: Socks and sandals is wrong) so the search began and I realized that not everyone’s toes are in line top to bottom Big to small. That’s right there are people out there with second toe (aka on hand pointing finger) that’s longer then the big toe, for me this is different as my toes are not like this, so I dove into it more and realized its pretty common. What’s with peoples baby toes turning side ways and they practically have not nail left...ehhhh. After I started speaking of my toe obsession to co-workers and friends (and yes they think i am crazy)I realized people think so many different things about toes...If you have a fat Big toe it means wisdom??? If Your pointing toe is longer then your Big toe it means good sex drive?? Who comes up with these and has there been a full study done on this? hmmm toes.

Fall Fall Fall

2005-09-10T09:32:00.000-07:00

I fell down!

hehehe no I didn't its fall and I am leaving for England on October 21st and I have not yet bought my ticket as I have not yet saved any funds for this.... Problem nahh, I will figure it out some way or another. I can always stand on a corner and squeegee a car...right didn't you say $30 an hour, and if I don't have a crack habit I can continue to work all day and this is tax free....wow I think I have a plan, I can even bring clean water, the Vancouverites won't know what hit them!! WTF clean water not piss! Or I can just hope and pray that a visa shows up to my house sooner then later and I can pay for the flight that way, I also still have to get an out fit for the wedding a hat and finish my gift and help with the stag and get a b-day present for Paul and Sarah.....ahahhahhhhhhhhhhhh I may be going crazy...

Shit its fall and I have to leave in October....am I going to get this done!

I can't cook

2005-09-05T19:19:00.000-07:00

I new I couldn't really cook, but I did think I had some skill to do the basic's. But I think I was wrong, because tonight I tried to make turkey breast wrapped in bacon with corn and potatoes...easy right.

well Noel fucked it up...hahha, ok I over cooked the turkey, and the bacon was undercooked - go figure?

The Corn, was old and freezer burnt so there for it was NASTY and the potatoes, well I just didn't cook them long enough...so I suck at cooking.

As I have been told before, "It would be harder if there wasn't any"

Crazy Kids....

2005-09-05T18:42:00.000-07:00

You would think I would go on and on about all the annoying/crazy kids at the mall.

Yes I made the decision to go to Metrotown on a holiday, yes it was a holiday when most people go to the mall for a dreaded thing called "back to school".

BUT NO, I am not here to bitch about the kids.... the kids were great I had no problem with the kids. It was all the damn mothers...yes that's right the damn mother with there big ass strollers walking in the mall banging at my ankles as they attempt to forcefully pass me. Come on really there should be some kind of STROLLER RESTRICTION .... at least two times a year..."back to school" and "Christmas". Don't think I don't remember Christmas that's even worse, because the strollers also seem to be loaded not only with child but with bag, many many bags...some times I wonder if child is even in stoller.

Come on Moms, get a babysitter, ask dad to stay home for once...just stop wounding me below me knees!!

Whats happening

2005-08-27T23:33:00.000-07:00

Work: I have a new job!!! This is a good thing, even though I here many things about cult like activities; I am way about that - position wise. I love my new job! TIC can like my monkey’s balls! Ok.

Boys: I have a boy, for just over three months now, I find everything hard to balance, and get really overwhelmed at times. But I really like it other then that.

Other: you know basic drama here and there. Girl’s night out Friday night - We went to the Roxy and Kristy hooked us up as always we had a great time.

Tonight: Def Leppard - I fell asleep at the concert...I think my boy is a bit mad about that as I am sitting over here at the computer and he is on the other side of the room. Hey I didn't ask to go to Def Leppard, I knew ONE song that’s it and I was tired from the girls night - last night I didn't go to be till three AM, and then got up early to take my car to White Rock to get my brakes done, I was worried about that as I wasn't sure how much money that was going to cost me but it ended up being nothing because my brakes are apparently FINE – Go figure, they didn't seem fine when I was trying to stop!!! So I went out and bought some shoes and a jacket and some other clothes and accessories...because hey I deserve it.

I miss Robyn, I don't know where she is right now, and its way to late to call. BUT I never get to see her anymore, I need more Robyn time.

I have to be a gnome? How is that done, please tell me!!! AS I have no FUCKING clue.

Ok I am going to go to bed now, as Shawn and I are going for breakfast tomorrow - Paul and I were supposed to be going to the PNE but he switched his shifts--buuuhaaa.

Rating of breakfast will commence tomorrow...very exciting, results to be posted soon.

Camping

2005-08-16T23:13:00.000-07:00

Well it is camping season, and I have only gone once this year that was when I skiped out of work for the girls camping trip. Well I quit that job and I have a way better job that I LOVE now, oh so good! Hope it stays that way. Anyways I am going camping this weekend and I got a new camp stove!!!! I am sooooo excited I haven't bought any new camping stuff in soooo long. Well how lame have I become....bloging about a camping stove.

Loud and Clear

2005-08-16T23:12:00.000-07:00

I guess I made my point loud and clear, there for no need to go anyfurther with it!

I found the Knife!

2005-07-25T08:21:00.000-07:00

Don't worry I will have something to say...

Can you parallel park?

2005-07-23T20:24:00.000-07:00

Oh my god, so Shawn and I went for our normal Saturday morning breaky and I parked my car on Main Street and we crossed over to Five point and sat on the patio for breakfast. Just after we were served our coffee I noticed a small Asian man and his wife parking behind my car, I noticed because he was going on such a sharp angel that he was almost hitting the tree on the side walk, so I pointed this out to Shawn and we sat and watched as he attempted to park his car and hitting the back of my car for the first time. Then his wife got out of the car and he decided to pull up even more and at this point hit my car again. Then he got out of his car and they both walked to the store they were parking in front of and it was closed. So then he decided to get back in his car AGAIN and AGAIN he hit my car ok so he wasn’t hitting it hard otherwise I would have been over there the very first time he hit it. But hell after the third time I got my ass out of my seat crossed the street walked right up to the back of my car and said you hit my car not once not twice but THREE times gesturing erratically. Then his wife runs over NO no no no no we did not hit car no no I said I was sitting there watching you the hole time, I said don't worry there is no damage but you NEED to take some Driving lessons....she is like oh but it very small spot...HELLO I could have parked two of my VW golf’s in that spot. So what ever not a huge deal, more entertaining then anything. So the day goes on and as we are coming out of Tim's with our coffee I am walking up to my car and there is a pretty good size scrape about a foot and a half long on my front corner bumper...I was pissed, Like FUCK Vancouver can no one drive out here?? I came to Vancouver with my car from the burbs and I tell you it was dent and scratch free then I come and live out here and holey fuck I need to triple my insurance! I think don't move your car from your garage unless you know how the FUCK to drive and PARK!!

Moving on up

2005-07-23T07:26:00.000-07:00

He he yeah baby I got a NEW job! And a good one to its not like I'm going from one place to another to do the same thing for a couple more bucks an hour...ITS WAY BETTER THEN THAT. Well anyways I am excited, hope it all works out, time will tell.

Why don't we just know...

2005-07-14T22:07:00.000-07:00

Why don't we just know if someone likes us or not, why does it have to be so difficult. What is the deal with all the games people play? I bite me tongue saying this..."What comes around goes around" maybe if I was a better person this wouldn't happen to me, maybe if I didn't do that to him this other guy wouldn't be doing this to me. Nah that’s Bull Shit right....Tell me its bull shit. It has to be because what if you live your life being the best person you can be and then something shitty happens to you...why would this happen to you, you haven't done anything to deserve it....Or does something greater then us know that we intend to do something wrong later in life and we start paying for it now? Who knows....I know nothing this is obvious because then I would know what to do...

I had a really catchy rant

2005-07-08T15:28:00.000-07:00

BUt this imac sucks ass and I thought I went to copy and paste and I lost my work...fucking thing...Im bitter.

Canada Day!!!

2005-07-01T23:05:00.000-07:00

Well I did shit all for Canada Day. I hung up a Canadian Flag in my window and wore my roots Canada sweater. Paul and I went to White Rock to have diner with my mom, and we were going to stay and watch the fire works but we were way to tired so we left early.

What else happened on Canada Day...oh ya I ran out of gas...hahahhaha I knew it would happen sooner or later because I always like to see how far below the red line I can go before I actually run out of gas...well I can go pretty far...good thing Kristy Ann was around to help me out, she picked me up and we got a Jerry Can...or some may call it other types of cans...but anyway we filled it up with $2.67 worth of gas drove back to my car spilt $1.10 worth and used the $1.57 to get back to the gas station to fill the car...oh ya during the purchasing of the $2.67 of gas and the $10 Jerry Can I realized I didn't have my bank card as I had just changed purses and forgot all about that and my drivers license. So Paul bailed me out and paid for everything...thank god...maybe I have learnt my lesson..but I doubt it.

Happy Canada Day!

Memory Loss

2005-06-27T22:42:00.000-07:00

I have been driving in my car many times with many different people thinking of things that come to me that would be cool to write in my blog...then I finally get a chance to write on a computer (FYI: mine is broken again) and I forget all my thoughts...so this is a call out to all my passengers...what was I thinking and why can't I remember it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Movies

2005-06-27T22:19:00.000-07:00

Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Loved IT...Brad Pitt of course is Gorgeous and what’s her face isn't bad either. I do recommend it especially if your a Brad Pitt Lover. Its kind of a chick flick but Paul liked it too so I think most guys would be into it.

Batman Begins

Paul thinks this movie is Awesome!! As do I, actually I loved this movie, I went in thinking nothing can beat Michael Keatons Batman...but hell no I was wrong...this movie is by far the best and if you haven't seen it you need to...go do it, do it now.

Ironic ?

On June 19th after writing Crack Whores need Loven too.... I was getting off work in BBY around 3PM and driving out to White Rock to my moms for father’s day. I drove past Edmonds Sky train station and in passing it looked like this guy was either attacking this girl or giving her the j-thrust maneuver...after passing and trying to put it out of mind I decided I had to turn around. I can't be one of those people who just keep driving. So I turn the car around get out my cell phone and pull up to where the guy and girl are. At this time a younger normal guy had stopped and was calling 911 so I get out of my car and the not so normal guy is holding the (on closer inspection) not so normal girl. What the hell did I walk in to... So I start yelling at the guy saying what’s going on and after yelling a few times he advised me that his girlfriend has overdosed on Heroine...FUCK-I know first aid but I don't have gloves masks .... nothing. So I don't want to touch her. So I start yelling out to the very out of it boyfriend to lay her on the ground, I checked for a pulse...very week but there then I checked her eyes...pin point, did some pressure points...she felt pain. I started screaming her name Debra Debra she would respond every so often there wasn't much more I could do....just wait kept checking on the pulse and the ambulance finally came. They gave me some sani wash and I was on my way. So I don't think I will be joking about crack whores needed loven anymore...cause they don't need loven from me.

Crack Whores Need Loven to

2005-06-19T14:50:00.000-07:00

Thursday Night Shawn and I stopped by my sisters Caporia Class which happens to be located on Kingsway around Victoria. Which leads me to my Title...Yes crack whores need loven to, we were driving down Kingsway doors locked windows up looking at all the wonderful people who wander around there, we have full fledged Crack whores looking in all the cracks trying to find crack...Believe me its true this is what they do. Then we have Crack whores in training...they are well on there way to becoming a full fledged crack whore. We say they are in training because you can still somewhat see there face, its not completely covered in scabs at this time and they still seem to have clothes on that are somewhat clean. Anyways after parking the car, we went into watch Tammy do her Caporia thing...very exciting and hot men too. Shawn advised me it was a good thing I was stuffed up as, the smell wasn't that pleasant.

I am sitting here staring at this blank white screen that I look at as a canvas waiting for its picture. But I just can't seem to do it lately. I don't know why, maybe because I have been doing things that are to personal for me to post and I just don't feel comfortable talking about it to everyone. Ok maybe because I am lame and exhausted and think know one wants to read about me baby sitting and going out on dates and getting gifts. Why has my mind gone blank.

I have been a very bad girl...

2005-06-10T18:29:00.000-07:00

Sorry avid readers who are getting mad at me because I have not updated lately. I have been crazy busy meeting new people and hanging with the old. I also concocted elaborate schemes for a good laugh....muhahhaa.

Everyone knows my friend Shawn and my friend Shawn's big ass Black tattoo on his arm being somewhat of a distinguishing mark. I thought it would be fun, hehe since he is a loyal Thursday morning "I saw you" reader to maybe make up an "I saw you" and see what happened...again hehe. I think the best part of the whole thing was having sooooo many people who new about it and everyone was wondering if he had read it yet.

Me I was feeling a bit guilty at one point as I didn't want to hurt him...but I had full intentions to not let it go far if he didn't know it was me. But he did know it was me...i just wasn't sly enough when hinting to grab me a Georgia Straight...next time I will have to plan harder. If you want to see that add... its the Home Depot Richmond one...

What happened this weekend...

2005-05-29T22:55:00.000-07:00

Ok lets see this is the wonderful exciting things I did this weekend.
Friday after work I came home and changed and killed some time before I had to drive out to Surrey to feed Robyns fish as her Steve and Nisha went out to Banff for Nicole's Wedding. I drove out to Surrey enjoying the amazing weather, I brought some towels over and took advantage of having a washer and dryer to use. It was pretty late by this time and thought I would call around and see if anyone from the Delta crew was up to doing anything as I didn't really want to drive all the way home after driving all the way out there. So I go a hold of Nicole and I grabbed a DVD from Robyns HUGE collection and we went and watched Swingers. Then I went home and had a hard time getting to sleep as it was super hot that night. Two cold showers later It was nice and comfy in bed.

Saturday morning I got up and went out side and basked in the sun while listening to The Faith, then I had another cold shower...really I do love the heat but I also like to be cool. Tonight was the night we are supposed to be going out for Nicole's Birthday, its just the girls and plans have already changed a few times. Initially we were supposed to be going to Bimmini's on 4th, then to the Roxy then to Sky Bar all fine by me, then Lauren's friend Jen (who was supposed to have her birthday on Friday) changed her mind and decided they were going out Saturday night, so Lauren wasn't going to be able to join us at the bar. Soooo we yet again changed the plans and we ended up going to the Mirage in Surrey (wow it was a Surrey kind of weekend) any ways first I packed a bag and figured I have to go feed Robyns fish again so why not just bring all my clothes and makeup and get ready at Nicole's. So I pack everything and jump into my car and drive out to Surrey yet again, The fish were doing great, I fed them and then watched channel 59 which are the security camera'a What fun this was as it seems to be moving day and HOT guys were involved. After a hard afternoon of watching hot sweaty guys I headed out with Nicole and we did some shopping then back to her place to get ready for a night out. So it ended up being Laura, Nicole, Lauren, Lindsay and Myself for diner, then Lauren headed off to Jenn's and the rest of us headed to the Mirage. We stood in line for what was way to long then we finally said Fuck it, why wait this long to get into what is only a Surrey club at that, so then we all started to walk away when one of the bouncers comes running after us saying wait don't leave...he then offered us free cover and we took it...really it was 11:40 what else were we going to do. So he asks us all for our ID's and we grab them.. fuck were the oldest people here...and fuck I don't seem to have my ID, he let me in anyway..I mean come on im 27, so we head in and we had a solid night of 21 and 23 year olds trying to pick us up...it was kind of cute..if only they new how much older we were. Ok so after a night of Lind's and I cutting down half the bar we headed back to Nicoles where I ended up crashing around 4:30 then getting up the next morning at 9.

Sunday morning I was already in Surrey so I was off to Robyns to change my laundry over and clean myself up a bit. Shawn phoned and wanted to do breakfast, I was happy to do so and also to get all the juice on the newest girl Angie who he picked up on the skytrain. So I picked him up at Skytrain and for some reason we drove all the way downtown to have breakfast at Denny's on Davey...yes there is a Denny's in Surrey and one in the COQ, we also passed the one on Burrard but we ended up on Davey...And it was shit..note to self don't go back to Denny's. So after that we stopped off at my place because I was still baffled as to where my driver's license was as I can't remember the last time I used it...It was in my jean's Kristy ann and I had went to the cheese...see drunken blog post.. after that quick stop we went back to Shawn's and both napped on the couches then I realized the time, I had to pick up my Grandma and drive out to White Rock for a BBQ at mom's and make a quick stop at Robyns to pick up the last of my laundry as she is back tonight.

So we had a good BBQ It was Ma, Gram, Tammy, Shawna, Michelle and her boyfriend Travis and myself. We had some good hamburgers and some good conversations. One being the rejection of Michelle's piercing...Ouch, I was always worried about that when I had my nipple done!!! Lucky for me its all good, because she has a nice scar on her belly button. Well was exhausted by this point, Shawn had also called to mention that he was going to the Snoop Dogg concert...the last time I went to a Snoop concert it was horrible...I like him, but he's bad when he is by himself...So I am still waiting to here how that went...hopefully no gangster boys ruffed him up and showed him what a real gang bang is....

Just a Story.

To have or not to have

The short story of a tragic ending…

Once upon a time in a far far away land lived a creature by the name of Bart Borg, he was a well-liked creature by all the other creatures, until one day… He decided to leave the land far far away and go to the land further further away. He decided that this land further further away would help in his future to create a better life for him and his family he will one day have.

So in preparation for his trip he decided to make the long haul to the land further further away with as little of his prize positions as possible and by doing this he started to offer out his belongings to all the other creatures in the land of far far away. One particular instance seems to stand out in this storyteller’s mind…it may be because of the direct impact it had…but one will never know.

The convenience of Bart leaving at this time was great for one due to the fact that another creature was also moving (but staying with in the land of far far away) and this one creature lets call her Nora was struggling to fill her apartment with furniture necessities to sleep and sit on. When Bart came forward and offered a bed to sleep on…sure Nora was a little skeptic…who knew what mileage it had. But when Nora came to his dwellings and laid her eyes upon the sweet red velvet couches she fell in love at once…(despite the odd odour coming from the other room).

At this immediate time Nora put forth an offer and made it clear that she loved the couches and would take them. Nora then set off to find her room partner who she would have to bestow the couch upon. It was the last step in the final approval. Two days had passed when Nora was finally able to call Bart and confirm that the sweet velvet red couches were to be hers and that’s when he broke the news…

Yes this part of the story is hard to tell because of the sad tragic out come…when that call was placed a shaky voice said…oh you wanted the couches sorry I didn’t really think you did and I sold them to my friend. Then there was a thud and that was Nora’s heart coming to a sudden stop. Bart felt her pain but still was able to offer the bed. Nora accepted and as the days past slowly got over the love of the sweet red velvet couches that she almost had.

Then as part of the healing process Nora decided to go out and buy a brand new couch even know it wasn’t in the budget…but it would help her get through this hard time. So after spending $2500.00 on brand new couches the pain went away and she was able to forgive Bart and move on with her life…Until the day after she bought the couches she was making her way home when her phone rang…and who was it on the other end of that call…yes that’s right it was Bart.

Good news he says… my friend no longer wants the sweet velvet red couches and they are yours!! Their was an lengthy silence and then a little whimper…that’s when Nora brook the news…I just bought new couches!!! “oh” said Bart “are you sure” Nora was sure but now Bart had to find someone to take the sweet red velvet couches.

So with that I end this story saying…RIP sweet velvet red couches we will miss you greatly and if you every want to understand the love for the couches you can go visit them at the North Delta dump…or just rub up against Sylvia’s leg.

The End .

Writer’s notes:

No hard feeling Bart, its just a story worth telling. All the best, we will miss you.

Prove me wrong.

I was once younger and more nieve, and dumbfounded in Love with my boyfriend who said "nothing lasts forever" I don't even remember how the conversation started, I don't know what we were doing, all I remember is him saying "nothing lasts forever" over and over in my head. I didn't respond I just starred ahead and was thinking. We went out for 5 1/2 years then it ended and I felt like it was an I told you so in my face.

But I didn't want to believe it I understand that we have many relationships through out our lives and we learn and grow from them. You can't base this statement on a relationship...if we all looked at the stats we would understand. But then as things went on I noticed more and more that all around me things were not lasting forever.

I know we all have to die at sometime but I think I have been to too many funerals! This just makes me understand why nothing lasts forever.

My school ended and friends started parting. My dance ended and we stopped traveling. I changed jobs and it was just different. My family changes often I have been the youngest the oldest and the middle child. I have had many father figures. I have had grandparents and then they were gone...Yet they have not died.

Why when something is so good and makes you so happy does it have to come to an end? Why is it that nothing lasts forever?

And its not that I can't go hang out with those friends or go on other trips, but its not the same. I could call my family and try and make it work. Its hard, Its new, its different, its not the comfort we had before.

Everyday the words "nothing lasts forever" goes through my head. Everyday I fear that its going to be my last with you.

Anyone else melting..?

2005-05-27T18:30:00.000-07:00

Man its hot....or as Pedro would say Hout.

My hands are sliding off the key board and at any minute I am afraid I my electrocute myself...

The worst part is I am being taunted by the pool outside my window. The beautiful pool that looks so refreshing that pool...That is not yet opened..talk about torture.

I must go take a cold shower now.

hmmmm can't type well

2005-05-25T23:41:00.000-07:00

Shit it only took me five or so times to log onto my blog as I may; have had some drinks tonight.

Not that I can afford to go out and have a good time, but my roommate insisted on treating so we can talk about the always popular subject of boys/men. So I phoned up my guy whom I was seeing the one where I had felt that it was not going to work because I just didn't feel that much needed chemistry or spark if you will. I not so easily advised him that it was not going to work out and Really I feel like shit because of it. I mean I know it wasn't going to work out and that's why it had to be done, but I don't think I have ever had to break up with a guy who was that nice and sincere. The past guys have all gave me very good reasons to kick there ass to the curb (don't cheat I will hurt you). But this guy not so much and I think that's why it was so hard. I had to call most of my friends to get advice because I was pretty much sucking at it. But he seemed to take it well, wait I forgot I lied to him, I felt sooooo bad I didn't want to tell him there was no chemistry so I said there was someone else...OK guys is this wrong would you assuming your a great guy want to be told there is someone else or would you want to be buffed with a little lie saying there was someone else...am I wrong should I have been truthful and said he we have no chemistry and that's that...Shit I should have done that shouldn't I.

Well I never said I was good at this and Its not like getting advice from Shawn or Tammy is that good anyway. Sorry guys...I am wrong your advice is GREAT...Remember I have been drinking many drinks.

Now what, back to square one, I'm so exhausted from dating its hard work and is stressing me out... I would much rather have sex with random (clean) people it may just be easier.

Ok so most of this has not made any sense...I will have to probably delete it later..so if your reading this remember it and consider yourself lucky because it may be gone the next time your here.

Just some mind blowing information

2005-05-22T14:48:00.000-07:00

Stats are fun...

Population

Canada: 31,281,092
British Columbia: 197,292
Vancouver: 560,000
Coquitlam: 51,130
Burnaby: 197,292

That's a hole lot of people. Hint hint.

2005-05-22T12:34:00.000-07:00

I love this tatty and I am testing trying to put pic's on my blog...so thats why its here

I'm always right...Aren't I

2005-05-22T10:11:00.000-07:00

I am don't argue with me.

I'm just making this harder on myself...

2005-05-21T01:10:00.000-07:00

Why is it when we go out with someone be it male or female and we don't have that spark that chemistry that...that thing that you know is missing, why is it so hard to tell them that? Or is it just me are there more people who are heartless and can do this kind of thing? What do you want to here when someone is telling you to basically get the F**K away.

*Sorry it's not you it's me
*I am interested in someone else
*I'm not attracted to you at all

?????????what do I say...Because I have to say something...I tried to use the body language...but who knows if that worked.

People just keep telling me to tell the truth...but really the truth can hurt and this would definitely hurt, it would just show how petty and small I really am and do I need to make someone feel like shit so I can tell the truth?

Yes I am being petty and small and yes I don't want to be with this person. This IS the way I feel and I shouldn't have to justify that...its just the way it is.

Now I wonder who I am trying to convince.

Should we know better?

2005-05-19T22:10:00.000-07:00

Questions... with no answers.

Should we know better; some times I wonder why I do things and I wonder why other people do them too. Why is it that half the time we have to learn from our mistakes. Why can't we just be advised on the right way to do things so we don't have to bugger around and figure it out.

Frustration is taking me over!

Putting it all out there

2005-05-16T22:38:00.000-07:00

What is a Blog....This is a Blog and this is my Blog and typical to me it has tons of errors throughout...

But I have been keeping this for sometime and I thought it would be a bit more fun to share it with you all...I can't say its all that entertaining because really its not. But its mostly me...

Other People's Kids

2005-05-16T21:44:00.000-07:00

Driving over the Alex Fraser Bridge Heading towards New Westminster, Older model pick up truck comes out of Queens Burrow turns the corner and the tail gate falls off his truck and is holding on by what looks like a bungie cord..one little bungie cord at that, tools fly from the back of his truck and sparks are flying as the tailgate drags along the street. Yet this brilliant driver continues on

HOW can you NOT notice your tailgate following along beside your truck on the highway...it was pretty loud as well.

Really how slow are some people...

Do what is right...

2005-05-16T21:29:00.000-07:00

Ok so I give advice, I never said it was the right thing to do...

I like to think my head is filled with what is called common sense, and I like to think everything has a solution be it easy or hard. But I have never though I was always right.

With this I would like to add this disclaimer "I think this is what you should do, but ultimately its up to you"

We are only human right.

My weekend End.

2005-05-15T22:23:00.000-07:00

So did I do anything exciting this weekend...

Friday: I came home from work and I spoke with Shawn who spoke of going to one of his friends Andrews shows-which seems really cool and I would eventually love to see. Well I didn't end up going and someone else didn't end up with a number - do we call that a bust?

Saturday: Morning I got up and Shawn and I went shopping on 4th, and then to Pacific Center. Goal was to get some new shirts for myself and for Shawn NOT to spend any money. Both goals accomplished although not DT but in Burnaby. Eli Phoned while we were shopping on 4th and Plans were made to hook up later.

Saturday: Night I drove out to Surrey and picked up Eli at his girlfriends house and then we went to Donagoals to eat and drink and visit girlfriend aka Miranda. We soon left and went to the Lion, played some pool and quickly became board and then went to New West to Dan's work "the twist" we left there and headed over to Steves house where video game playing commenced, after this I dropped strange dude?? off at bus stop then Eli at his car and then Dan off in Delta.

Sunday: I need to go grocery shopping long over due, so I pick Shawn up and we go to Stupid Store and I don't know what the deal is with that store but its seems that I always run into former boyfriends or boy toys there (maybe there just thrifty). Sooo Shawn got to meet Shaun, and Shena "Shaun's on again off again girlfriend" who apparently Shawn said was not looking very happy with me. hmmm is someone a bit bitter that I'm amazing...hehe. Once you've had the best the rest just sucks... "Conceded much" Ok so shopping commenced and then we came back to my house played around on the computer went for a walk to Rogers and then back to the COQ why do I feel we did something else ???

So I drop shawn off and call my sister as I am hungry and was thinking dinner. What I had forgot however was that I was supposed to be going to her place anyway for what is called a sip by sip party wine tasting and learning, so I forgot...opps I headed over and we drank wine and got a bit tipsy, I think I will hold a party myself, there isn't a bunch of stuff I would buy its a bit expensive and I think there should be more selection, but it is a brand new company and it is just starting. The web sight is still in the works but check it out it will be up soon www.sipbysip.ca

Well the end of the weekend is now and it went way to fast I don't look forward to going to work tomorrow but I will. Damn work, need money must go...

Practice what I Preach

2005-05-13T18:01:00.000-07:00

I now find myself in a sticky situation.

The sad thing is I know what I need to do. I have told people a million times what to do, why can't I follow my own advice.

Ok so I have been dating this guy for about 2 1/2 weeks now and he is super nice, sweet, cute. He treats me like gold and he's funny and we can talk and talk. But I don't really like him. Its hard to say this, I'm kind of stuck on describing what my problem is...

I'm really confused right now. I feel like I am a horrible person because he is so into me it feels really good but I also know that if I don't feel the same way I shouldn't be hanging out with him leading him on. That's just soooo mean, if someone is totally into you you shouldn't have to feel bad because they feel that way. They will be much better off if we let them go so then they can move on and meet the person who is right for them and they won't do that if we are hanging onto them because we feel bad or guilty or we like them a bit but not the right way.

So its pretty clear what needs to be done, I need to cute him lose. This is the best thing to do for everyone. How would I feel If I was going out with someone and they were going along with everything I said because they didn't want to hurt my feelings... Screw that I would rather know!

Don't Hate me, but your the one who made me tell you.

2005-05-08T02:02:00.000-07:00

Confused...No that's not it, Anger...No, jealousy...Yes sometimes...Understanding...Yes definitely, But then that makes me say yes to Confusion.

I look at myself today and start to understand what is wrong. I lie way to much, not huge lies but little lies and I think I have been doing this for so long that I now actually start to believe some of them myself. I think I lie to myself even, because this helps in convincing me what should be instead of what it is.

I look at myself and wonder why I am standing still, I hold myself back by holding on to others way to hard. Yes it hurts to lose them, but you can't always get what you want and isn't it better to have Love and lost then to have never to have loved at all.

I am manipulative, I am petty and I am evil. I plot and scheme to hurt my friends. I hurt myself more because of it. Sometimes my power scares me. Look what I have done so far, and don't tell me its not my fault. Everyone knows I had so much to do with everything. Maybe I'm not the one pushing the button but I am defiantly making sure someone is doing it.

Who does what I do? I don't think many people do. Maybe I'm crazy maybe I am sane...But whatever the case I am not happy.

Why do I inflict pain on myself like this, why do I keep going back for more, why can't I control my thoughts and feelings!! How can one person make me feel this way.

I'm not a good person I have done something to you.

My week so far...or what I remember

2005-05-06T21:28:00.000-07:00

Monday I was so tired from my weekend I didn't do to much just chatted with my new friend on the phone. (bed at 2:30)

Tuesday Shawn and I went to see Moby and Buck 65 at the Commodore. It was a Great concert. Both artists can put on an amazing show! (bed at 1:45ish)

Wednesday I got off work at 3 and was supposed to go walking with Robyn but when she go to my house she didn't want to go anymore, so we went to Starbucks and picked a movie. We went to see the Ballot of Rose and Jack at Tinstle Town, that was good. It was strange to get out of the theater and it still be daylight out. Robyn and I went for diner on 4th at Sofies..which I now know is way OVER RATED, the portions were way to big and I just didn't like it that much. After coming home I watched Gilmore girls and then went to bed, and my new friend phoned again and we chatted till late. (bed 2:30)

Thursday I was a wreck at work, I could NOT function!! I needed sleep and I needed it bad. So I came home after work and lied on the couch then my buzzer rang and Nicole was here, her, Lauren, Lindsay and I were going out for diner...(if I can even make it) So I change and drag my ass over to Laurens and visit her new Kitten Bear..who is hands down the cutest kitten I have EVER seen. Then we all went off to Los Margaritas, but couldn't get in because of Sinco Demio, so we walked over to Hells Kitchen and had diner there, and I was impressed yum I had the best diner ever and a cold beer to go with it was just right. After that we all loaded into my car and went to the desert place on Alma and Broadway, Lauren and Nicole picked up some O-so-expensive desert and then we all went home (Nicole had a roast in the slow cooker) I was just happy to go home early to bed!!! So I get home and decided to try the computer again and it worked, and then I went to bed...but then my friend called and I was up till 12ish.

So today is Friday and I came right home after work, turned off my phone didn't go on the computer and went right to bed, had a GREAT nap and now im full of energy...well not really, I think I will have an early night.

My weekend...but not this one, Last weekend.

2005-05-06T21:00:00.000-07:00

Well as said before I was not able to blog as my computer decided on Sunday night that it was going to stop working. Yes my computer is from the 90's and yes its a P.O.C. but its my link, it gets me my W.W.W. fix...and I need my fix.

So Lets start from Friday (computer worked fine)was having a nice relaxing evening at home, something like tonight (with less naps) and then around 10:30 after I had my walk my sushi and done my laundry...the phone rang. It was Kristyanne she wanted me to pick her up as she was not able to drive. So I go downtown to pick her and her boss up, I drop him off and then we discuss the Roxy..? We came home changed and left, it was pretty late and the U2 concert was that night so DT was just crazy. But she has her connections and she was able to hug our way past the line and in for free. Then we went to her bartender who was super and who treated us to many drinks...That's us and Nickel Back of coarse. Nickel Back was also there and we hung out at the bar with them, shared a couple shots and then we went on our way. I got home at 3:30 that night and must admit was drunk, I had to get up and drive Kristyanne to her car...Ouch!

Saturday after dropping Kristyanne off I drove over to Shawn's to attempt once again to submit my taxes net file style...I was not able to do it but did advance in getting a net file number and I left the job in Shawn's capable hands. We also headed out for some breakfast and a bit of running around as I had to pick up some things before watching my niece and nephew at Shawna's. So I got everything I needed and headed out to Langley...way out in Langley hung out and played with Cole and Saje and had some fun getting Cole to sleep as the poor little guy (7 mths) is teething AND had a cold. But in time he went down...yet another late night, I crashed at Shawna's house and then got up and did some cleaning and had breaky.

Sunday morning, I picked Shawn up at King George Skytrain (Shawn loves Surrey) and then we drove out to the states...We decided to take the peace arch crossing instead of the truck crossing...first mistake. There was a huge line up and it took some time for us to get through. But we did enjoy the entertainment. Yoga traffic Streching lady, We need some more pictures of the grass and the arch Asian Family and friends and the best of all US boarder crossing sticking a towel of drugs into the truck beside us and waiting for the drug dogs to find it...And we have to say...job well done!! So as we finally go across the line we stop at the first out let store...the place is dead...wow it used to thrive on the Canadian Dollar. Well that was lame then we headed off to the next out let, when I don't remember how, who or why but we decided...screw shopping lets drive to Seattle...Wow didn't realize how long of a drive it really was. But we got there and walked around the space needle and decided to go into the EMP (Experiment Music Project) it was quite exciting but I don't fell like I want to get into it..maybe just go check out the web site or go yourself. Then after that we got a bite to eat at Subway and GIANT Starbucks drinks...Giant I say!! Then we went Down Town and walked and walked and walked. We were extremely disappointed in the stores and thought there would be way more cool stuff, even the local un-named gay guy on the side of the street with the cool plugs said there were no good stores.

What to do what to do...Well we walked around and admired the cleanliness of Seattle...and I am not kidding. It looks like the alleys had been scrubbed and the bums had been cleaned. (and given cell phones?) But really it was Clean. So after many hours of that we started to go home, I had to stop in at my step-sisters Birthday in Delta at the Catus Club, then I had to go drop Shawn off then go home change then back to Delta to meet them and then bowling at Excalaber lanes. All in all it was a really good day...but really tiring one as well.

I have to say I had a pretty good weekend. Wish they could all be fun like that, but I am so tired as I haven't been to bed at a decent hour all week as well...see my week blog...

All events listed above may be inaccurate or a bit a-skew as the length of time to write them down has been longer then anticipated. Please do not hold any mistakes against me.

To Love or to Hate....THE DAMN COMPUTER THAT IS...

2005-05-05T22:14:00.000-07:00

Ok so I know nothing about how or why computers work all I know is that I had a really great weekend hanging out with nickel Back going to Seattle with Shawn and watching Cole and Saje and wanted to Blog about it but my computer stopped working....I don't have time to write all my stories now, but I think I am up and running again so I will update everything Friday...Really what else do I do on Fridays anyway.

What's the deal with Gay Men and the "C" word?

2005-04-27T22:44:00.000-07:00

No really what's the deal with this. If your a gay man does it make it ok to use this word over and over again. As a women I personally am not a big fan of the "C" word. Sure this rant could also apply to the hard core, backcombing Surrey girl, but believe me if I ever use it, I really mean IT and I'm mad!

I don't go flaunting it around in every other sentence...come on really its a nasty word and I don't understand why every gay man I know well, not so well, worked with, danced with, and even my drag queen girls use it like they know of no other words in the English language to use in lieu of this.

Well I feel a bit better now, not really, but who cares I said what I had to say. Nite.

What sound does a Liger make?

2005-04-27T17:41:00.000-07:00

Well What sound does a Liger make....

I could tell you better yet I could show you but I don't have the ability to put a sound clip on here. But for those of you who want to know...its a cross between a large cat being smothered and a cow being run over by a car.

But believe me you...it’s only a Liger who could make a call like that. Yes that right!!

Not so uncommon?

2005-04-26T22:02:00.000-07:00

So on this blog I use my middle name, just because...

But my given name is Noelene...and here's a funny story.

I was at work Monday morning crazy as always and I received the first phone call of what I did not know at the time was going to be the beginning of many..."Your cutting your hair", "Your going to U2", "I didn't know you liked U2 THAT much" and on and on.

Turns out Monday morning on 99.3 the Fox someone (not me) also by the name of Noelene phoned in and was going to be getting her hair cut by the DJ in order to get U2 tickets.

Well I guess its kind of cool to have a not so common name. Could you imagine if a Shawn or a Sarah phoned in...man I would have to hire a detective before I knew who to call.

"GCT" AKA Girls Camping Trip

2005-04-24T22:47:00.000-07:00

Friday I had to put my acting skills to work, as to make it to the girls camping trip I would need to phone work and let them know I would not be able to come in Friday as I was ill "GCT kind of ill" So after winning my Oscar... Lindsay picked me up in the bug and we loaded the car and off we go to Boston bar...well after a stop or 5 ...

Destination Boston Bar, 1st stop Fruits, Veggies and Meat in Delta, 2nd stop propane at the local hardware store, 3rd stop...Sun Screen, 4th stop Lindsays rents place for golf umbrellas, 5th Stop...Starbucks and then we are on our way Wait..6th Stop Gas and Ice... OK now we are on our way.

So we followed the map and then the signs the girls left for us and we made it up in great time. We set up camp and then basked in the sun. There were 12 of us this year and I have to say Andrea (organizer) is great, we played Crockett and pictinary we had arts and crafts and we had way to much food to go around. Lets just say we camped in some major style...minues the nasty nasty out house...by the last day it was everything I could do not to puke!!

Old Friends

2005-04-18T22:01:00.000-07:00

Sarah is in town!!!!

This is my best friend from 3rd grade. She now takes residence in Wales with her fiancé James "we love James". But bottom line is we do not get to see each other enough. We hooked up last Wednesday night and had diner on Robson. But I haven't been able to see her again since, she went to visit her rents in Powel River this weekend and this next weekend I will be out of town, sucks that she is here for only a short time.

In October Her and James will be getting married. I am going out to witness this wonderful event...but one thing after another is making it harder and harder for me to make it there. I have a decent job, I make decent money...but I think I have a problem, I am always always in DEBT!!! Help me go to my Best Friends Wedding! Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong...or how to pay off Revenue Canada, MSP and stop getting my car towed and all these surprise bills.

Goal...get to Wales, save the funds!

We have what's left of April, and then just 5 months...can I do it?

I have to.
