Making It Work

It's mostly just me talking...to myself. It's cheaper than therapy and safer than leaving a diary hanging around the house. I will try really hard to not be whiny or boring but no promises. I can be a real slug. pregnancy week by week

When it rains it pours

so last night i finally figure out all the babysitting details, i decide the snow will allow us to depart and i begin to pack. at 6pm my dad calls to say that he is at VGH with my grandpa. grandpa was found in the snow by a passerby. prognosis: heart failure, cracked ribs from resesitation, hypothermia, pnuemonia, should i go on?

how can i possibly leave when he is so ill. even if i go i wont be able to enjoy myself. this after last week my bf's grandpa died. this after all this awful snow. this after the student loan ppl have put out a hit on me. i just wanted to turn 30 in style. i should have known better. my life doesnt work like that. i dont know what i am going to do.

oh dear

really? snow? i am getting very unhappy about this situation. my boots are leaking. my gloves are froken to the patio. yesterday the car doors were frozen shut. the cat refuses to go outside to the washroom. AND i have to leave for vegas in two days and i am very worried that due to weather conditions my plane will not depart.

the past week has been just dreadful....

1. my boyfriends grandpa died and he is in guyana so its upsetting for people because it is very expensive to fly there.

2. the student loan people are knocking at my door. one wants $701 a month and the other wants $364 and thats for the next 14.5 years. man, what was i thinking going to school? this is crazy. i cannot afford $1000 a month. how do i avoid this happening to me? public...please help.

3. people owe me money and they are not paying up man. stupid avon. i am going to quit.

snow snow go away, come again, never.

gawd i heart Rainn Wilson





He is so funny. His character Dwight is so zany. I love to read his blogs from The Office almost as much as I love reading Amanda's blogs. It's too bad Amanda already found Simon because I think her and Rainn would make a tops couple.

I think that tv has taken over my life. I have many many shows going on and it makes me stay inside the house alot. which is good for the cash flow but bad for getting anything done.

Here's my tv schedule:

Sundays:
Desperate Housewives
Without A Trace
Seventh Heaven

Mondays:
Heroes
How I Met Your Mother
Prison Break

Tuesdays:
Law and Order - Criminal Intent
Law and Order - SVU
NCIS
The Unit
3 lbs

Wednesdays:
Top Model

Thursdays:
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
Six Degrees
Survivor
CSI
ER

Fridays:
nothing ( i do have a life)

Saturdays:
really nothing (why isnt there anything good on saturdays?)

stranger than fiction





well i saw it. i dont really know what to say. actually, i do.

1. emma thompson has a really gross habit where she spits in a kleenex, then puts her cigarette out in it, then later smokes it again. it was replusive.

2. ten year olds cannot understand this movie. i know. i have a ten year old that talked to me through the whole movie.

3. i still love maggie. shes a good actress even though she had a really odd character.

4. not sure if i like will in a serious role. it confused me.

5. this is not a theatre worthy movie. please only rent it.

other than all that, good cast, interesting idea, but i have to say 3.5/5

phew ... what a week

really i didnt do anything much at all. went to the gym a few times. went tanning once. only had fast food one time, yipee for me. i was sick this week so i was off and on at work. mostly off and even when i was on i think i was on neopets or msn or something.

anyhow, i am getting pretty nervous that we planned a trip to vegas at the same time as christmas. i blame my parents. why did they have me in december? well i am learning my lesson this year. trying to save for spending cash $500-600 USD AND buy christmas presents (budget of $2000) is really just not working out for my day to day life.

how christmas and vegas are ruining my life:

a. can't afford to go to starbucks every morning (though this is partially due to the tainted water).

b. I can't go out for the next two weekends and I got a lot of good invites.

c. Instead of buying my favourite boneless skinless chicken breasts I can only afford bone-in chicken. so unfair.

d. Darin says no more restaurant dinners until JANUARY!!!!! I cannot live on the food prepared soley by myself.

e. I can't buy all the good stuff that Avon keeps sending me booklets for. I can only buy products if they are presents for other people. very unfair.

f. ALSO i was planning on losing weight for vegas but because i have been eating at home so much i apparently eat like 12 bags of chips a day and actually gained weight.

i am going to put up my xmas tree on november 3oth. oh and um i think someone broke into my computer and blogged for me last weekend. rofl rofl. gross.

colour seem to fade

whoa, when you are drunk your senses are really and truly dulled. it's um about 4 and i am listening to my sad lonley girl songs. and i have had many the double vodka paralyzer. my boyfriend has gone to bed because apparently, just like a child, when you get mad at him he gets mad right back. that is so lame. its been so long since i let loose. and i guess when i let loose i lose all sanity. but you know what? so what. jeezuz. a girl has to do that sometimes. i feel like i am wound so tight sometimes that when i let go, i really let go. well, i should finish this drink and call it a night...on the couch in the den. because right now i hate boys. arrrrrrrr i'm a pirate. tomorrow i will delete this post. booya.

mean girls




you know yesterday i was sitting at the pool watching my daughters lessons and there were three teen girls standing in front of me stretching for their swim team practise. i was listening to them, mostly because i had no choice due to their loud voices, and they were being so nasty. "oh marsha she's a slut" hahaha. hey, i bet marsha doesn't think thats very funny. and they were all like "she said this and he said that and they all denied it." anyhow, i found out that i truly dislike anyone between the ages of 13-25. there should be some sort of place to send these people. i dont want my ten year old girl to turn into one of those girls. but i think its already too late. shes bossy and judgemental...yep a chip right off the old block. tear.

me and my mama



that's mama-in-law to you. sometimes i think she love me more than Darin does. sometimes i think she loves me more than she love darin. teehee.

so i haven't been blogging. i have been oh so busy. you know, what with all the must see tv on thursdays, drinking with my co-op neighbours, and pretty much just busy being fantastic all around.

work sucks. they STILL don't know how long the organization can sustain. apparently the worst case scenario right now is end of july final final final. i am actually kinda okay with that. if only i knew for sure. i need to get my ducks in a row. like, what, the ducks should just be wandering around? ack.

nothing else really new. boyfriend is being better than ever. stays here like 10 days on, 1 day off. february is quickly coming. there are two things that he is giving me soon that will stay with me forever. cant ruin the secrets yet. and no, its no herpes and/or hiv. gawd you guys.

its going to be a long weekend. yah! friday is bowling night. i dont even know what to wear. i am kinda stressed out about it. i heard there will be trophy's and pictures and man i just want to look good for the cover shot.

stay tuned...much more uninteresting facts about my life to follow
