It's about time...

This weekend was great. I am going to lay this all out for you.

Friday: I worked all day (not the best part)
Friday Night: There was a dance. Yes, a dance; and I danced my heart out. I don't know about you, but at the end of the week when I am completely exhausted and feel slightly defeated, I like to dance it all away. It's a good theory and has proved itself time and time again.

Saturday: Worked all day and made some wicked commission. (Yes!)
Saturday Night: Karaoke @ El Comel Mexican restaurant. Fun and random. Not to mention my car getting egged as I drove home. Joy and splendor I tell ya! Nothing like scraping egg off your windshield at 1 am.

Sunday: Church (always a good thing)
Sunday Afternoon: Watched the Olympic torch being handed off and lit between two runners. I got free stuff and some sweet pictures.
Sunday Night: Festivities at Henderson Park, celebrating the Olympics in Canada, fireworks and then later on...some awesome movies and hot chocolate with a friend until the wee hours of the morning.

I am completely satisfied with my awesome weekend.

My new Boyfriend.

Yes, I have fallen in love.

His name is mac. He is white, about 6 pounds and has an array of amazing features and programs. I don't have to change him because he is already everything I could ever want. He organizes my files and pictures without being asked and never asks me silly questions about what I want to do after I have already told him. He remembers my favorite websites and doesn't mind if I am always checking my email or on facebook, because the more I use him the closer we get. I don't have to feed him, or listen to his problems or rub his back in church, he is just there when I need him. He sleeps when I am away so I know he is faithful. He wont break my heart, because he doesn't actually know I have one and a heart wouldn't be any use to him.

I never have to worry about him. He is the perfect boyfriend.

I highly doubt that Lethbridge can produce anything remotely close in human form.

January 6, 2010.

It's a new year. Finally.
I feel like I have been waiting forever for a new year to start; a new leaf to turn. And, I should recognize the leaves that did turn, but there are also those pesky leaves that stayed exactly where they were. Frustrating!

The leaves that did turn, happend in quite a timely matter. 1st leaf: I got all my ducks in a row and have started my very first online university course. In math. Go figure. My least favorite class and I am more or less attempting to teach myself. 2nd leaf:I bought a computer. It cost me both arms and a leg, and I feel sick to my stomach every time I think about the price of that shiny, white, 13" computer, but atleast I can still hobble around, right? 3rd leaf: I work 5 days a week. Now, that may not seem like a lot to some people, but previous to December of 2009, I never worked a full 5-day week unless I begged to come in when people had the sniffles. That didn't happen much. So, it is nice to be freely given the opportunity to make money, cause heaven knows I need to see more green!

Pesky leaves:
1) I was all alone for new years. Not a phone call, not a text, not a facebook post. Not one of the friends I thought I had made tried to contact me at all. Major disapointment, a bucket full of tears and a couple roles of toilet paper. Literally. It's a sob story, but it happened....so it's still pathetic, but atleast I have a blog to vent about it.

2) I am in debt. Again. School attempt #1 is still in the hole... only a few hundred dollars, but still a deep hole. A new computer; remember how I said I felt like throwing up when I thought about it? Yup, a feeling like that wont go away and until I am level with my debt. I have online classes and tuition and text books to pay for. Ugh, forget the spoons, i'm already gagging.

3) Off hand, I can't really think about the rest of those darn leaves in my life.... but I do have a headache...and I have had it for the whole day despite efforts of nutrition, hydration and rest. I give up.

So if you'd like you can laugh, or sympathize or roll you eyes. Either way, I can't see or hear you anyways so it would only be for your own benefit. I think 2010 has a lot instore. Positive and negative. I am not sure which one will take the cake, tip the scales and win... but my money is on the positive. My mom always tells me I am a "glass half empty"-person; I call that being a realist. But this year, I will do, not try, but I will pour my glass a little nicer in hopes that more drops end up in my cup rather than beside it.

So cheers to 2010, I sure hope you know what you're doing... cause I sure don't.
