My Birthday

So, I recently had my 19th birthday, my golden birthday no less. It was quite a time. I was back in Lethbridge and my best friend, Becky was back in Regina. It was just ridiculous. I was a little bummed that she was gone. BUT, it turned out to be pretty good. I woke up on Saturday and did pretty close to nothing. I Shopped, slept, showered and then went out. It started at Moxies. I met up with my long lost friend Katie, Cole, and then two guys, Kyle and Doug who I had never met. It was fun. I got a brownie with a sparkler in it....which went out before I could get my camera out. Boo. After that, we went to The Slice. It's a pub with live music. It was super chill. Some more people showed up. A lot of them I barely knew but it was great.

The music was super, the people were awesome and the night was just beginning. After a few hours at the slice we went to Red Dog Diner to get some hot dogs and then it was back to Cole's house. We watched a movie, chatted and then it was back to my house. I didn't get into bed until about 4:30 in the morning. It was ridiculous. But amazing. Needless to say,the night was really good. Happy golden birthday to meeeeeeeeeee!

The Flu...

Yes, it is infact true. The flu has taken over the better part of my body. It all started Sunday night. I went to bed feeling a little under the weather, but then realized it was more when I was still lying awake three hours later in the same position. Monday morning rolled around, and I still felt horrible. Monday afternoon came and still, I felt sick. Then, twenty minutes before leaving my home in Saskatchewan to start the journey west, it was worth it...or so I thought.....

I crawled to the bathroom, and released what I thought, was all of the sickness and pain from my tummy. But then half an hour later it was back and I was laying in the back seat of the 4-runner trying not to move. So, 7 hours later, I arrived home to Lethbridge, went to bed, woke up the next day and went to work. Not smart. I lasted through work, and felt good enough to pop a few extra-strength Tylenol and see some friends. Also, not smart. I went to bed and again...could not sleep. This time, I actually only got 2 hours of unconsciousness. I mean, literally. I actually watched my digital clock change from one hour to the next until about 6:30 am when I finally fell asleep to be awoken at 7:47 am by my roommate going to school. And there you have it folks. A temperature of 102 and an empty stomach. That's my kind of Wednesday.

It's has come to my attention.

Wow. Life is actually looking up. I recently applied for a better job, and now its the waiting game. I am really hoping that I get it.. I mean, who doesn't want 2500$ a month???? Exactly. This upcoming weekend I am seeing my family for Thanksgiving! I almost didn't get it off work.....because my boss is... well...not the sharpest tool in the shed, if you know what I mean...

Regardless she gave it to me off..... I think it's sort of funny when girls feel they need to set 'boundaries' early on. I mean, when my boss gave me Thanksgiving off, I figured that a week later, that wouldn't change... but for some reason she felt the need to take me in the back room and re-iterate that she did in fact give me the weekend off, making it seem like it was a huge stretch one and it was comparable to taking a bullet to save my life. I mean... who does that anyways? OH well.. I suppose I did get it off, so I shouldn't complain.

Other than that, life is pretty good right now. I have things somewhat planned out. Hopefully life goes according to the plan. Chances are it wont, but to be honest, I am never really in the mood to think up a back-up plan. I figure, I tried, and if it doesn't work, then I will just start praying a lot more frequently.

As for my love life... it is practically non-existent; by my own choice of course. Sure I would love to have a companion and such, but I am doing alright with just my friends and family. I have options that I could pursue if I really wanted to, but for the first time ever, I don't want that. I like just hanging out right now. It's nice that I don't have to commit, even though I would like to...because I know that I have no problem committing at all.. I just don't feel like it right now. I have that right.......right? Anyways.....it's just nice that I can just be, who I want to be.

So, this morning, I dropped my laptop on my left foot. I thought it was broken, but there is just a wicked bruise and a HUGE bump. I figure thats good enough. Anyways, I just had to say that.

I don't think that there is anything else exciting to report about....my life really just goes on, day by day, same old same old.....

Oh, I am getting farther in my book though! I wrote 2 more pages.. so I am up to....almost 40.Pretty amazing. It will probably be published in about 6 years.... I figure that is a good time line... no pressure. Anyways....the end.
