Wow, so I spent 2 nights on my dad's couch due to tiredness, laziness, and a day off work combining. My neck/back is very ++ displeased. Whatever. I was only in a sorta okish mood, but then Naomi showed up at my work (to drop off a resume, it'd be cool if they hired her, but I probably wouldn't really see her there either way) and kidnap me. She wanted to go to the movies but didn't want to go alone. So she payed for me. To go see Forgetting Sarah Marshall. That I have wanted to see since I saw the trailer for the first time at work months ago. AND IT WAS AWESOME! So now I'm kinda tired/hyper simultaneously. But I have Vicky on the phone and I haven't talked to her in AGES. So life is good. Also, she just informed me she's naked. And I felt compelled to share that information with you - the internet. Fun! (OMG! I WAS JUST ABOUT TO FINISH THE POST AND VICKY ASKED WHAT I WAS TYPING - AN LJ POST? PUT THAT I'M NAKED!)
Work has been strange. We had a documentary festival, so there were tonnes of staff in, but it wasn't actually busy, so lots of shifts with nothing to do. And this week we've got two new movies with awesome reviews, so we may get a touch busy if the TTC strike doesn't ruin it all. Also, Colin Firth promoting one of the movies on the Daily Show; talked exclusively about his penis. Like 1 sentence about the movie tops. This may actually draw more people to the theatre than if he had discussed the actual movie.
Also just realized I never posted about my adventure in bicycle acquisition. Bought a used bike last week. It's the biggest bike I've ever ridden as I was always too large for my childhood bikes. But I managed to test ride it in the alley behind the place with no problems so I figured I'd be ok. Also rode it (without a helmet as I haven't bought one yet) from work to the station where I catch my bus home (7 stops) with zero problems. NO the Bazillion bruises on my legs knees and ass are from when I decided that rather than try as an inexperienced, unhelmeted rider to ride the thing to work from where I bought it, I'd take the subway and proceeded to drop the bike and myself down the stairs into the station. My shoe fell off and I tripped over it. At least I fell on the bike and not the other way round.
Anyway this post has become terribly random as I'm sleep deprived and had lots of sugar (plus codeine for my back) So I'm gonna just shut up now. Good weekend folks!
