I am PMSing again...I am just plain tired...all the time. It's been a busy week, too. Tonight I will be out late, but I can semi sleep in 'til I go into work tomorrow. But then I have to be up way before 7 to drop off my mom and her friend at the bus depot. And then I'll be out Friday night. Let's hope I can fit in a nap somewhere. I've not been feeling 100% eitther since I haven't been able to go to the gym. Given the choice to get sleep or exercise, right now I am choosing sleep. Wayne is back home from his trip to Turkey. He actually came by Monday night. I saw him online, and even though I didn't message him, etc, I was hurt that he didn't either...or an email to say "hey, I'm home." But I haven't been all that excited about his return. I think I only missed him the first day he was gone. :? Why do I constantly need something in my face for me to pay attention to it? I guess that is why I never did well with pets like hamsters and fish. I am that way with plants, too. I should do some watering. A couple of nights I went to a concert, and my pole dancing instructors were there. I seem to have lost interest in pole dancing because I don't feel like I am making any progress. Maybe I am just too impatient. The excitement has definitely worn off a little. Ah, at the concert, I wore a tank top that I probably will never wear in public again. It was extremely low cut, which is okay. But everyone else thought I was going to expose some nipple. I guess the skin coloured lace gave that illusion. I was probably showing just a little too much skin. I always like looking at what teenagers are wearing these days. They always have such interesting fashion ideas. Although they're being innovative, they all seem to have the same kind of look. If I was a teenager now, I'd probably look...hmm....I don't know. I was about to say punk-like because that's the look I like now. But knowing me, I'd have probably gone for the regular "safe" trendy stuff. Well, some deadlines at work have surprised me. Time to get down to work! |

| One year anniversary |
| 06.28.04 (1:12 pm) [edit] |
|
My friend has been with his girlfriend for a year; they started going out as soon they met. One of the comments about their year together was "I think I've found out everything about this girl." If that is true, I think that is kind of sad. Does this mean their relationship will be stagnant from now on? And does he think she won't change? Or he won't? What I look forward to in a relationship is growth - growing as an individual and growing together. If I thought I figured someone out, I probably would be bored. |

I'm wearing a shirt that I bought in Hong Kong back in the winter. I love it because it fits me well. It fit so well, I don't even have to wear a bra!! I've gotten compliments on it today. It's made of silk and has sequins. It's almost a little much for work, but I felt like wearing something sleeveless today, and it matches a skirt that doesn't get much wear. I didn't think it'd be so difficult to find a match for a grey skirt that has blue undertones. There is a potluck going on at work on Wednesday. I had not planned on participating...because I just have no desire to take the time to make (or buy) food for a bunch of people [never mind that I'd be eating, too, but still...]. Then one of the people in my group volunteered us all to bring something. So now I have been roped into throwing out money for something I had no intention of participating in. I guess that makes me sound kind of cheap, but other expenses of mine are stressing me out a little right now. I'm at the point where every penny counts. |

| Enlightened about anal sex and female ejaculation |
| 06.28.04 (11:04 am) [edit] |
|
Sorry, if this topic offends some. There seems to be a growing interest in anal sex, but that's not what I'm here to talk about! I learned that in pornographic videos...to prepare the recipient...They take steps such as these: 1. High carb, low protein diet for the 3 days prior. 2. A healthy application of baby orajel to the hole. 3. Manual hole stretching beforehand. So there you have it. A stretched hole that's pretty much numb to all feeling. I felt kind of gross hearing about it. And female ejaculation. I think most of the time/half the time/just not all the time, it's urine. Ron Jeremy has a technique to make his female co-stars "ejaculate." He has a spot that he quickly taps over and over again until she pees. And they drink lots of water, so the urine is clear. Hearing this made me feel kind of gross, too. But interesting, nonetheless. |

| I voted this morning |
| 06.28.04 (10:02 am) [edit] |
|
I was actually a little nervous; although I wasn't signing my life away, I wasn't sure I made the "right" choice. But I voted with my heart (Green Party) instead of strategically. Right now, my riding is pretty much Conservative vs. Liberal. I still can't help but be surprised by why there is so much support for the Conservatives. Maybe I should have done more research on what good things they have in mind. So far, this is what I hear about them (or rather, Harper and his wants?): -They want Canadian support for US's ongoing war on Iraq [I am glad Chretien said no to that] -They want to put $7 billion into our military [Sure our military could use upgrades, but skip the tanks and deal more with peacekeeping. Also, $7 billion is a lot of money. I think it could be used better elsewhere, like social services and health care. ] -They reject the Kyoto treaty. All the years of planning down the tubes. What is so terrible about protecting the environment? Cuts into corporate profit, of course. :roll: -They will not defend the Charter of Rights. -They will re-open the issues surrounding legal abortions. I think a woman should be able to choose what she wants done with her body. -They would consider re-opening the issue of capital punishment. I don't think capital punishment is the way to go. One friend said he likes their ideas of tax cuts. I'm all for lower taxes, but at the same time, I am willing to pay taxes for better living [I like being able to go to my doctor and not pay money for the visit. I liked having my post-secondary education subsidized.]. With tax cuts, where will they make up the money? Cut funding to other things, of course. I don't like that. |

| "Do you think we'll ever get married?" |
| 06.27.04 (10:17 pm) [edit] |
|
That's what Paula asked me today :lol: We're both in our late-20's...single (well, me still, technically) and never been close to getting married. We both had long-term boyfriends where we talked about being married...but there was never any planning or engagements. I think my answer was "I don't know." Right now, I don't have an urge to be married. Even as a kid, my plan for marriage was to hit 30, first. I'd like to be. I talked to a life coach once. She said, "if you want something to happen, you have explicitly express it. And be specific." Maybe it's how I've grown up...and the messages I've received [yes, yes! Blame the media!!]. I dunno. Most of my friends are around my age are not married. I would like to be, though. |

| Gifts galore! |
| 06.26.04 (1:52 pm) [edit] |
|
Just one gift after another...what about spending on me? :wink: Today, I ordered wine glasses for my cousin's wedding: $150 Today, I bought a gift for Wilf's wedding (iron): $85 (plus some oven mitts that I bought a while back) For July, I will need 2 bridal shower gifts and 1 birthday gift for my best friend. I want to get her some satin sheets as her wedding gift, but the darned Victoria's Secret site only has their sale stuff right now. Where else can I get nice satin sheets?!! They must be turquoise or maybe a deep orangey colour. |

1. Co-worker points out I'm "pokey." And I am supposed to do what with this information? 2. A guy I used to email with appears online after months of being gone. First thing he says is the he dumped his girlfriend and that the sex was bad. Then he reiterated "terrible p*ssy." Do I care? And why would I? Do people think it's okay to say this kind of stuff to me?? I guess they do. And J's been rather short with me since last night...He hasn't started conversations with me, and whenever I say anything, he's been very short and unresponsive. :roll: What is up with that? Another action-packed weekend coming up. I just want to sleep!!! |

I had fun at work (more carrot cake!), and I had a good workout at the gym. A couple of friends and I registered for pottery class in the fall; I am kind of excited for it. I think I will have to keep my nails short, so clay doesn't get stuck under the nails :lol: We also saw Saved! last night. I really enjoyed it, and thought it was hilarious!! Mandy Moore wasn't annoying like her other characters, which was a nice surprise. And Macauley Culkin's character was hilarious! I also called up my dad to see if he wanted to go for lunch today, but alas he is busy. He also called me up later last night, too. I guess he must be thinking lots...he should focus on moving on. When he called me up, he was like, "oh, I forgot to ask you something....Did you say something to your mother about [the woman he's brought into the home]." Somehow, he's heard that my mom has heard about this woman in his life who's divorced, has kids, and cleans for him. :roll: When I said I didn't tell my mom anything, he didn't really seem to believe me. "You didn't? How else would she know? Who would tell her?" Well, umm....he's not exactly told me anything about her. I've seen her in our house two times, and neither time did I get an introduction. He's been doing so much lying and playing so many games that he's confused himself. He should also realise that any information he tells other people might get passed around. And that when he's out and about with his women friends that people who recognise him and know my mom also see him :roll: I told my mom about this strange conversation [strange in that it was kind of out of the blue]. She was mad because she has guesses on who has the loose lips. |

Sure they're a little conservative looking, but they go better with skirts than a fleece jacket. I tried on a couple this morning, and they're too small for me. The one I'm wearing right now has 3/4 length sleeves. I'm getting the pattern imprinted into my skin, and this material is stiff!! OUCH! Well, I don't have much new to report today or any angsty stuff, either. |

Well, I went to the chiropractor. My neck muscles are really tight. I've made another adjustment to my workstation at work, so my neck is in better position. It was a good appointment. Turns out my mom had been telling him about me :shock: And I had cake today - carrot, to be exact. Perfect! That's the kind of cake I had been craving!! I am stuffed! The cake at work was to celebrate a sale. There was even champagne. I hope this means I get a raise this year. *fingers crossed* So umm...yeah, that's it for now :) |

| You look different today |
| 06.23.04 (9:43 am) [edit] |
|
All it takes is a pair of contact and a hair scrunchie, I guess! One lady from the office didn't recognise me, and my boss (who came back from vacation today) said I looked different. This afternoon I'm going to see a chiropractor, so I didn't wear my glasses today. (Well, there is a correlation to me...:lol: If I have to be face down, no glasses!) And I've been wearing my hair up because it's been so hot!! I'm glad the temperatures have cooled down a bit, but it's pretty muggy, still. Last night, I went out for dinner with my mom, aunt, and uncle. My uncle asked me, "why don't you cut your hair? It's so long! Don't you get hot?" And this is all coming from a bald man! :lol: And ugh, I love my aunt dearly, but the way she meddles just really gets on my nerves. She really ticked me off last night. First it was her scorn for my zitty face [I went for a facial weeks ago...then my face broke out...and it's taken a while to recover :(], and then she commented on my weight gain. "You've gotten rounder. You were slimmer a while back. Been too busy for the gym?" :roll: Ah, but the *best* part was when she asked me if my dad had mentioned anything about coming home. Here's the convo: Aunt: Have you asked your dad about coming home? Me: No, why? Aunt: Did he say anything about coming home? Me: No. He said he was never coming back. Aunt: Why don't you persuade him to come back? Ask him why he'd want to be alone? Me: [getting irate] Why would I do that? Aunt: What is so great about growing old alone? Me: [exasperated] What's the point of having him come home when everyone is unhappy when he's around? There's just a lot of tension and yelling. [I was trying to get the point across that everyone walks on eggshells when my dad's around, but it's something I didn't know how to express in Cantonese. Bleh.] Ever since my dad left, my mom has been looking healthier and has gained weight. She goes out with her friends and enjoys herself. She still might want my dad around as someone to help out with day-to-day stuff, but she hasn't really said much about wanting him around again. I bet she would if he was back to who he who he was 15 years ago. She's still angry about him and his flitting about with other women. "He makes me pay when we go out to eat, but he can take other women on trips?!" His sisters all seem to have blinders on. They just want my mom and dad living in the same house. If they don't really see what's going on [and which they don't], they should butt out [but lend an ear]. And it angers me even more when they want me to help them get back together. If they want to do their "good" deed, leave me out of it. |

I don't know what's up today. First I crave pepperoni pizza. Then chocolate. Now cake. But I can't eat much right now. I swear I am still recovering from a few weekends ago when I ate a lot of meat and junk food. Nobody believes me that I'm still not back to normal! Right now, if I eat too quickly or too much, I feel ill. But I can still feel hungry and too ill to eat. :? Just give me some cake and chocolate already. |

| Canadians going to vote next week |
| 06.22.04 (8:20 am) [edit] |
|
I am still undecided about who I want to vote for. I like the Greens because they're into social justice. The NDP is saying things I like to hear. I've lost faith in the Liberals, but maybe they deserve another chance. I'll never go for Conservatives - no offense to the Americans out there, but I wouldn't want somone with Dubya Bush-like priniciples leading the country. A couple of days ago, a Conservative party volunteer called my landline. And asked for my mom. It's been my personal phone numer for 14 years. I really hate when telemarketers call asking for "Mr. or Mrs. blah." By then, I know they're calling me, so what I am supposed to say? What I'd like to say is, "take me of your damned list. These people don't exist [for this phone number]." Sometimes I'm tempted to say, "oh, they're dead. Please stop calling." And isn't is somewhat archaic to be asking for Mr. or Mrs.? And presumptuous to assume there is a married man and woman in the household. What if it were Mr. and Mr?? Or Mr. and Ms. I wanted to keep my maiden name. Or Mr. and Ms. we're not married but common law. Um...now my head is swimming with thoughts. I'd better do something productive! |

Hurrah! I came in somewhat early today since I wasn't up late last night chit chatting away. :) More sleep might be the only good thing about Wayne being away!! I miss him already though. :? I've either not been like this ever o in a long time...swooning, that is. It's embarrassing!! And I just got an FYI email...I couldn't help but laugh: "Bill just called, his Doctor has been asked to remain home for the rest of this week" I hope Bill's doctor is okay... 8) |

My body is exhausted...it's painful to even get out of a chair :lol: So yesterday, I participated in a 24-hour relay. You're in a team of people, and the point is to have someone from the team running at all times. Each lap is 2.5 miles. I ran two laps in about 4 hours since I was going to party after and wanted to talk to Wayne beforehand. I didn't really train for it. I thought the distance was going to be shorter. Now I am paying for it. Last night was the most running I'd done all year. I'd been doing piddly <2 miles about once a week....At least I got in some stretching. I am sure that helped.> And both Wilf and Sharon were there. You'd have never guessed there was anything wrong. And she was really nice to me, too...makes me wonder if she's silently fuming at me :-/ I hope not :-/ I should order their wedding gift this coming week. |

Ah, more on the Wilf situation first... His fiancee went through his email and found stuff she wasn't really supposed to. So all trust has gone down the drain. I've been briefed that she may talk to me should we all see each other on Saturday (at a relay I'm going to participate in)...not like an interrogation, but she might bring up my past with him. I've been instructed to not email him anymore, and he gave me the story of "our" past. It's not too far from the truth, but she has no idea how close we are now. Hmm. Although he's been a dog, he hasn't really been treated all that fairly. So! My past! Today, at the one of the sites I help out with, I noticed a familiar username sign up. It's very uncommon, and when I checked out his info, I had a pretty good idea it was him, e.g., location, web site. He's a guy I knew from the Internet in the mid-1990s...I guess we lost touch after meeting in person. He was one of the guys I fell for at a younger age. We probably would have dated if we were living in the same city/country, but I had no interest in keeping anything like that up, especially while I was going to school. Ah, good ol' Ethan. I don't even remember much about him anymore, except that he had a lot of siblings. |

This morning I got a call from Wilf...It was most definitely a strange time since both of us are at work this time. Anyway, he called to let me know there would be no more IMing. Sometimes we chat during the day. His fiancee either found out he was using MSN or he was talking to me? It was a quick call, and I'm not really sure what he said. What I heard was "I can't talk to you anymore through IM. Just pretend we never did it. Delete me because I am going to delete you." But at the moment, things are not very pleasant between the two of them. It just occurred to me that the two of them had been going to marriage school or whatever it is offered at the church they're getting married at. I wonder if they touched on trust issues. This whole jealousy/control thing his fiancee has is going to be troublesome for the both of them down the road. I wish them the best of luck :? |

| Spyware |
| 06.16.04 (10:40 pm) [edit] |
|
Last night, I installed Messenger Plus 3. I also told J about it, and he installed it, too. Tonight, he informed me that app was full of spyware, and that his IE had some extra tool bar...like MySearchWeb or something like that. Anyway, I used PestPatrol and Ad-Aware to scan my drives, and they came up empty (except for some data mining cookies). I've uninstalled it now. It was fun while it lasted. I hate (digital) cookies, BTW. I always refuse them unless they're sites I trust, e.g., techie forums. I hate sites that will not allow me to view them because I don't have cookies enabled. I think sites who inform visitors that cookies are safe are a little misleading. I don't think I am paranoid, either. |

I am such a bitch sometimes. :D Actually, it's only on rare occasion to people who think they can get away with deceiving me! Okay, I can admit I'm a geek and hang out on techie forums. There's one guy on one site who told someone else that he and I had something hot and steamy going on - and that it was at a point where he was going to visit me. Why would anyone do such a thing? Don't 30 year old men have better things to do than to brag about some chick on the Internet? The dude chats me up, and I'm just ... cold. But it hasn't deterred him from chatting me up. |

| Stepford Wives |
| 06.16.04 (10:25 am) [edit] |

As requested by [I forgot I went to see this movie last night. I sat next two loud, chatty women :x They didn't even hear me go "shhhh" throughout the movie.] The Stepford Wives was entertaining and quite funny at times. I've not seen the original, so I can't compare the two. I guess it's been updated to suit this era. I don't have much to say about it. Glenn Close and Better Midler's performances were really good. Nicole Kidman's was not her best. At times, I thought her accent was ... funny. The movie was short. I don't know if's because I'm used to movies being two hours long now, or what. But at the end, I was kind of left feeling "that's it?" I guess there wasn't much development of the main characters. The focus was more on the kookiness of the Stepford Wives. |

I am not as spaced out as yesterday, but eh. I am still in a state of exhaustion. I must be if I'm in kind of a bad mood :lol: I just got back from searching for some Red Rose tea at the office. There used to be two brands for us to consume, but now all we're left with is Tetley. I was craving some tea, but didn't want Tetley. The last thing I need is to feel wired tonight! I finally found some in the food prep area that's mainly used for entertaining visitors :D I grabbed 4 bags. I am still in a shopping mood...I want newness!! New clothes and new makeup. But I must hold off just a teensy bit longer. What I really should be doing is going to furniture stores and checking out furniture. In two months, I should be able to move in!!!!!!!! I am excited!!!!! I like my tea with a bit of milk and lots of sugar. I used four packets of sugar. That seems like a lot to me. |

It was another zombie like day for me today. I took a nap yesterday after work, so I couldn't get to sleep last night. I ended up staying up late, knowing that I was to wake up at 6:30. I needed to be at the gym for 7:30. When I woke up and looked at the clock, it was said 7:27. With an "oh #$@!" I jumped out of bed and made it to the gym 20 minutes later. My workout sucked because I wasn't awake and I was hungry. So all day long, I've been feeling exhausted. I just know I'm going to fall asleep watching The Stepford Wives tonight. At least the movie is only 93 minutes long. Hmm...so recently, this acquaintance of mine (Bart) decided to have some fun at my expense. I have no idea why, but he said he heard some gossip and asked me if I had heard any lately - about some mutual acquaintances. I said no, and asked him what it was about. Instead of telling me anything, he just said that I'd find out later and that he was not going to say anything. And that was pretty much the conversation. I didn't really have any interest in what the gossip was since I'm more interested in what people tell me about themselves or if it's about people I actually know well. So...I mentioned this to a mutual acquaintance...asked if he had heard anything, but Bart had actually mentioned the whole "gossip" thing to him. And how he thought he would have some fun by riling me up. *eyes roll* I really don't see the point of that. It was a dumb thing to do, and it's insulting to think that he'd think I'd be frothing at the mouth for some information that I have no remote interest in. And it'd be fine if he had just admitted there really was no gossip. Hmm. That probably didn't make sense. I have a craving for shopping. :x |

That was 4 in 3 weeks... 1. Darren. Told him even though I thought he was attractive, there was just an awkwardness... And he agreed, too. 2. Mark. When he asked if he had a chance with me (even though he didn't really think he did...), I didn't say yes or no. But I told him I didn't think we'd be compatible as a couple. 3. The Tool. His name is James, but more often, he is called The Tool. He told me he wasn't interested in having a relationship right now (thank goodness because I've never been interested in him), but he was still open to having sex. *eyes roll* 4. And J. I think I have tied up the loose ends. Well, there is one more person... |

Over the last few weeks, I've told guys that we weren't fit for dating or that I didn't want more than friendship. Guys who get dumped don't get offers of friendship. I just don't see the point. I'm not into leading guys on anymore. Not that I purposely did it in the past, but I let them think what they wanted in terms of my interest level. And J and I cleared the air. A year ago, I was crazy about this guy. But today he told me he was hoping we could give things another go, but I said no. *shakes head at how far I've come along* :D |

I had a hard time getting out of bed this morning, but I've been feeling quite smiley lately. :D :D :D :D There's going to be two bridal showers for my best friend. I am off the hook for organising the first one. I'm glad I didn't have to bring it up for me to bow out of it. But I gotta get on thinking up a theme and preparing the event. This weekend, I also removed my profile from a dating site. It was milestone although it's gotten more popular over time. One thing I've learned from those dating sites is to not expect too much. |

I had a facial not too long ago, and once again, my face broke out about a week later!!! My glasses give me zits, too. The zits, if there are two, are often symmetrical. Actually, I had four really noticeable ones, and they could formed a parallelogram, if you connected them up. Grr. I just want clear skin! I don't think getting those particular facials helps. And back to the bridal shower. I am not really sure what I am supposed to do since I don't want to create any rifts. The future in-laws have pretty much taken over the bridal shower and kept me out of the loop. And the second bridal shower that I'd be organising probably won't really be a bridal shower. Tara's mom suggested throwing like a slumber party type of deal. I dunno. I'll be meeting with her later on. Last night was a good night. Paula and I had some dinner and went dancing. We also met up with a few other friends. Paula is sort of interested in this guy...he was there last night, and his goofiness reminded me of Wayne. *sigh* |

I am so ready to eat right now. I'm heading out for some dinner and dancing tonight! I got my hair cut today, but this time, my hair dresser didn't use the straightening iron. Not enough time, I guess. It hardly looks like I got a cut. It was about 1.25" cut off, and since I wouldn't let her layer it or thin it...it looks the same. But maybe I should have. My head is heavy. And now there are going to be two bridal showers for my best friend. I'll be organising one for the day that *I* had originally wanted. Seems like the other bridesmaid who happens to be her future sister-in-law kind of took over the other one. In fact that whole family is taking over the wedding. It's turning into their day instead of the bride and groom's, unfortunately. |

I tend to take clean utensils from the dishwasher at work in the morning because it's not been unloaded yet. However, I never seem to notice when it's on. Many times I've opened the door with a huge waft of steam coming out. Then I notice the dishwasher is still going, and I close the door. But today...I didn't do that!! Go, me! But there are no spoons available for my use. |

This morning, I went out for breakfast with my mom. I had eggs, bacon (4 strips!!), toast, and hashbrowns. I thought I had recovered from the weekend since I could eat more food and not feel like puking afterwards. But, hey guess what...I feel really gross right now!! *L* I guess I'd better lay off heavy food for another several days. And I didn't get together with J last night. In fact, he didn't chat me up all day yesterday nor did he phone me. I'm not sure what is up with all that, but he's wasting my time. And I felt relief that I didn't have to see him. I probably inadvertantly offended him the night before anyway. I also overloaded on doughnuts over the last several days. I've been feeling so tired. I am crashing from all that sugar!! |

There is no sun today, but it's hot and muggy. My glasses are slipping down my nose :x But in another 24 hours, I'll be at another cube. I'd better remember to bring a sweater tomorrow. The A/C there is pretty fierce! Even though I got plenty of sleep 2 nights ago, I decided I didn't need so much last night. I'm a tired little monkey today. And I think my appetite is back to normal. At least I'm actually feeling hungry. I ought to get moving on getting the bridal shower and bridesmaids' dress fabric stuff sorted out. That is the not so fun part. I should book my hotel room, too. It's going to cost me $80 a night. I guess I will need 3 nights. Hopefully I can get someone to split the cost even though a room to myself would be most lovely *teehee* |

BWAHAHA... and I mean that in the most humble way. Once again, I discover the joys of expressing myself. Although I've not said anything to J yet... Last night Mark chatted me up. He brought up that I never got back to him about going for lunch...months ago. Anyway, I had said sure when he asked if I wanted to go for lunch. I didn't realise I was supposed to plan everything after that *eyes roll* So he asked me if I was still single. I gave him a "sort of" and he said, "so I still have a chance? Not that I thought I ever had a chance..." I told him I didn't think we were compatible even though I never got to know him long enough to really find out. But from what I knew of him, I didn't want to take the time to find out more (although he's a really short good looking guy :P). He brought up his material goods just a little too often - his boat, his new house, his Mercedes, his cars, etc. It was a little too much for me. And then the night I went out with him and a couple of his friends, he made fun of every overweight person he saw, and he spoke very badly of the people he knew from his past. He laughed at how much better he was doing than all of them. |

Hurrah! I just wish we could access our list of subscriptions and tweak them. *sigh* So tomorrow I am going to get together with J. I really don't want to. I don't know why I didn't (and can't) say no. I have a feeling I am going to be poor company. Sucks for all of us! I guess he is trying to make up for his pooiness from before, but it's too late. I can either just tell him to stay out of my life or have him think I have a love interest. So I cleaned out my keyboard a little while ago. I even washed my hands after, but I am still afraid to touch any food. My keyboard is still kind of filthy. What I need antispectic wipes and a vacuum. There were crumbs and hair galore! And the sticky splotches just weren't very attractive either. The keyboard still feels sticky. Gross. |

So I should treat it like one!! I am still recovering from all the meat and bad food I ate on the weekend. I still feel like I could throw up any minute. My workouts have been extremely tough, too. Ugh. And last night my head hurt so badly, my eyeballs were pulsating. I was asleep around 9:30 last night. I hope the pain doesn't come back. I took a Tylenol already this morning. It's amazing how one's diet can have such an effect. I'd better be recovered by June 19. I have a relay to run! |

I had a feeling this would happen since I went to the gym this morning!! My body is tired, and my legs are sore!! Earlier today, J asked me if I wanted to get together this week. Instead of saying "no," I said maybe, if we could work something out. Games, games, games. *slaps self* I really don't want to see him :? My newspaper didn't come this week...I hope this doesn't mean I have to call the subscription dude. I should call the BUSINESS NUMBER on the invoice. I did a reverse lookup on the phone number he wrote down for me. It was listed under some woman's name. My desk is really cluttered right now. I ought to tidy up some time. I think it's detrimental to my productivity :wink: I just looked up the word "nefarious" at dictionary.com. I can't remember why I needed the word. I miss nap time sometimes. |

It's Sunday night and the end to my action packed weekend. Some friends and I just hung out at a trailer park this weekend :lol: We ate LOTS of bad food, watched some bad TV, and just had a grand ol' time. We mostly just talked and had a lot of laughs. Times like those make really me appreciate my friends. I'm glad to be hanging out with them again. Friday we did some grocery shopping where I saw a hottie...He was checking me out, too :D But then we were already driving off. We noticed all the men in the parking lot wore tank tops. We sat around the fire that night, and just talked. It was a good fire. Saturday we did some shopping and watched some of the hockey game at this bar called "Holy Smoke." It used to be a church. I found the place a little scary...it was a seedy place with tough-looking people. One big, hairy man in particular kept looking at me. :( It was really rainy Saturday, so no fire. But we did go to the hot tub and watched some more TV when we got back. We watched this one show called Cheaters...People get busted for cheating on their significant others, and it's all caught on camera. :shock: And then today we came home. Apparently, I was snoring lots :oops: I also made it to the gym, and tonight we saw the Harry Potter movie. I had invited J to the movie even though I didn't want to. I just haven't been in the mood to see him. :? *sigh* Hmm. And there was no news from Wayne all weekend :x |

| Caffeine and booze and muscles |

I love that my body is sensitive to caffeine. In about half an hour, I will make a trip to get a latte. It should help me for tonight. The tea I had on Tuesday afternoon enabled me to stay up 'til 3 am that night even though I could have stayed up even longer :? My friends and I are just going to get away for the weekend. I'm excited! So I've seen Stef a couple of times since his current visit. Both times have been uneventful although I don't even want to look him in the eye. Last night after dance class, I dropped by some friends' place before a bunch of them went off to a club. Stef was there. Today Paula told me he got sooo drunk last night that he could barely walk. And he was still going to drive home. [They woke up the friends, so he could crash there for the night.] And he almost got them into a fight with these two guys because of his belligerence. Niiiiice. Apparently he is the most annoying drunk. I already experienced his drunknessness once...that was enough for me to dislike him forever. I can't wait to hear more stories! :twisted: I guess it's kind of mean to be happy that someone else dislikes him as much. And my muscles are tired today. I'm not sure it was from not stretching enough two days ago, or if it was from dance class last night. Gotta keep up with stretching. I am finding that I have more flexibility on my right than my left. |

I am just a bit closer to putting myself into debt. Went to another bank about getting a mortgage. I'm glad my payments won't be skyhigh. I also walked away with a line of credit! Woo! I hope I can still love comfortabley and save up for traveling!! Time to do some budgeting. It gets me excited! |

I forgot about my upcoming FOUR hour meeting this afternoon. This meeting is going to be unproductive, and I'll get to sit around people hashing out ideas. And if it's a repeat of the last TWO TWO-HOUR meetings I've had the last couple of weeks, I will rip my hair out. How do people get any work done when they're only sitting around in meetings?? |

Again. That was J. "Like grab a bite or catch a flick or something." What I wanted to ask him was 'like a date?" But I said "sure" instead. He's been flirting with me again, too. This had better not be trouble! |

I'd been meaning to subscribe to one of our newspapers again since my dad moved out. When I was at the supermarket last night, there was a guy standing by the entrance. He asked me if I wanted a free paper, and I said, "sure. In fact, I had been planning on subscribing." Luckily for me, he was selling subscriptions. Not only that, but they were at a discounted rate, and he also gave $15 gift certificates for the store. The whole signup process was quick, but we chatted for a bit. I wonder how bored he was standing there trying to hawk his wares. And I couldn't tell if he was hitting on me or not. He sure was asking a lot of questions about me. Before I left, he wrote his name and number on my order form in case I need to call him (like if I don't get my paper.) Was that good customer service or what?? Oh, and mblog. This guy was taller than 5'9" :P Another time I got "good customer service," was when I was buying my cell phone. The guy who sold it to me kept telling me his work hours, and he gave me his phone number, too...in case I had any questions. |
