update
surprisingly work has not blocked tumblr yet even though livejournal, facebook, etc. are all still blocked. whatevs! i’m cool with it!
stampede this year was a complete gong show. i usually do not participate in such festivities (after living downtown my hatred of all things stampede and hockey reached its peak) but this year i went all out for some strange reason. 10 days of non stop...
COOOOOOOOCK

FALL
Fall stuff is slowly starting trickle in… MY FAVOURITE TIME OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!! I would like this dress please, thanks Santa!
I’m also feeling this top for some reason even though I’m not a white or lace person….
And if I can’t get the dress I will settle for this top.
Friday
Ahhh Friday’s. My favourite day of the week not only because it’s the last day of work but because I buy my breakfast along with an Artigiano latte. It’s always #2 from the little cafe in the +15 - bacon, egg and cheese on english muffin. It’s always a Grande Soy Spanish Latte from Artigiano. This is seriously the best latte I have ever had… in my life. I have...
UNBLOCKED
work brought in a new web blocking program and during the switch EVERY SITE WAS OPEN. even facebook! for an entire week! it was glorious but at the same time i was kind of suspicious and thought they were maybe testing us to see who is wasting time during the day. but now the new program is in place and pretty much every site that was blocked before or needed quota time is now wide open. this...

sigh
i never update this thing because work blocked tumblr during normal hours… sadness! and i never think to update at home because well… i’m never sitting at home wanting to stab my eyeballs out from boredom.
i finally finished all seven seasons of gilmore girls on saturday night. i had one episode left for a couple of days and i just couldn’t bring myself to watch it! ...

love
these are my must haves and will be obtained at the 40% off sale in november when i can send them for free to my parents house in florida. oh yes. unless i find them on ebay first (have already obtained 2 fall items!) or something better comes along.
the comfy pants! i don’t understand how holt can get away with charging $298 for them when you can buy them online and save at least $50...
worse than vets
so i’ve been to the dentist approximately 700 times this month. my last appointment i had a cavity filled and a week later i still have a gaping hole between my molars where they filled the cavity. it’s so big i have to floss after everything i eat because otherwise i’ll end up with a whole meal in there by the end of the day! it’s ridiculous! usually my molars are so...

This blog is amazing. The guy who writes it hosts a show every monday morning on sirius radio. He always talks in a slow monotone… so if you read his blog the way he talks it is even better.
i wrote this yesterday
so i booked my last trip to vancouver with my airmiles yesterday (score they were 40% off so it was only 600 and something airmiles instead of 1,100!) and i checked my itinerary last night and the dumb twat booked me leaving at 8am instead of 5pm!! JESUS. so now i’m on hold and they hope to respond to me within 20 minutes. and the music they are playing is the song they played over and...
huh?
apparently blogs have opened up at work again? or it is just because i’m looking at this on my lunch break when normal blocked sites are un-blocked for an hour. i will test again after 1pm. please god let me access to blogs and the world of the internet again.
melissa - have fun in NY!!! I AM SO JEALOUS!!!

the horror!
so for some reason at work everything has become blocked on the internet!!! when i first started i couldn’t look at any blogs, flickr, facebook, etc. then for some reason flickr was allowed and then blogs followed. but on thursday it was just all of a sudden blocked again! so i can’t see anything and i basically want to kill myself from boredom!!! i really hope these sites become...
bad morning
UGHHHHHHH. you know how sometimes in the morning you think your hair is okay to leave down and you’ll probably make it halfway through the day before having to tie it back but then by the time you get to work it looks like you went through a wind tunnel and someone poured grease on your head? that is me this morning. horrendous! and to top that off i went to starbucks and got a caramel...
the pain!
i sliced my finger something good last night while cutting an onion and right after cutting two serrano peppers so not only did i get onion juice in it, i also got hot pepper juice in it. sweet lord above it was a doozy and sooo much blood. i think i should have gotten stitches now that i look at it without blood oozing out of it today. it still hurts like a bitch and i’m trying to air it...

sadness
well looks like i will not be going to paris this summer :( corey’s stupid company is full of retards and don’t know how to listen to instructions so he’s coming back on the 27th which would only give me 4 days out there which is not worth it for $1,000+ airfare. boo. but this does mean that vegas is BACK ON FOR MY BIRTHDAY! october 12 - 15. shopping, eating until i puke,...
ugh ugh ugh ugh!!!
fall stuff is already coming out and it’s making me DIE INSIDE it’s so amazing. every year i’m like i am done! no more spending ridiculous amounts of money on clothing! i can usually get away with it during spring/summer seasons because i’m not really a fan of those lines. but fall… FALL… dear god. i have no self control. saks posted some fall marc by marc...
books
this year has been riddled with bad book after bad book for me. i haven’t read one yet that made me sad when it was over. i’ve wanted them all to end and fast. i even gave up halfway through one and threw it in the garbage it was so bad and i’m one of those people that always has to finish a book no matter how bad. it was just awful. well i think i’ve FINALLY found a...
smoked paprika
i never really knew what paprika was and i never really thought it had much flavor. my only experience with it had been when my mom sprinkled the top of potato salad with it when i was growing up and to me i couldn’t taste a thing. then came my obsession with rachael ray recipes and she uses paprika alot… and not just regular paprika but SMOKED paprika. wtf was my first thought when...

dreams
my dreams were out of control last night! i think it might of had to do with the fact that i ate some nacho cheese before bed and i got a sweet solid 8 hours. i only remember two things from two seperate dreams:
1. i took frankie to the vet for a regular checkup and they had to put her down. apparently she was filled with tumors and the vet could tell just by feeling her belly. then i was in...
yay?
so there is a good possibility corey and i will be going somewhere in europe in august… SO EXCITED!!! i rarely get to travel with him as he’s usually busy working. jager is sending him to germany to go visit the distillery and do jager stuff but then they said they could extend his return ticket for a week with no extra charge! so i will just fly out and meet him and we will hang out...

weeeee
the boots were perfect! amazing! i need to have them. i’m being good though and selling stuff on ebay before i buy them on ebay. my auctions end tuesday night so hopefully i sell some shit that i never wear! it’s a good thing i tried them on too because i am a full size smaller in those boots than my regular size. i had read online you should buy a half size down so i tried that...
ughhhh
after my week long vacation in victoria and vancouver i came back to work and realized i had a 1.5 week reprise from snorty fuck face next door. he was on vacation… FINALLY! this man has not been away from work (sick or not!!!) since i started in august. i was really hoping he would get swine flu, die in a car crash, die in a plane crash, get mugged and murdered, get kidnapped…...
the heat war continues
so the building turned on their “coolers” so now it is about one hundred million times colder in here and it’s not even summer out yet. it’s like working in a fucking meat locker! which is fine and dandy for all these menopausal women and overweight men in suits but for me i’m dying!!! i am forced to wear sweaters every day of the year and it’s not fair! why...
just fuck off and die
i NEVER get sick. and since working here and having to sit beside the most disgusting human being on earth i’ve gotten sick TWICE in under a year. nothing serious as i think my immune system is pretty strong so i just get annoying symptoms that last a couple days and never really fully develops into anything. getting sick does not happen to me… i know it is this guy because he is...
blood
obviously i am very busy at work today. i went off the pill last month after being on it for almost 10 years (!!!!!) and so this will be my first non-pill period. so far i’m on day 28 and haven’t had any hints of one arriving. i’m sure my body is just confused… like “what? i have to have a real period now? how do we do this again? give me a sec i need to...
