I am soooooooooooooooo sick. I could only sleep and watch movies the whole day. My voice is gone and so is normal breathing! Tommorrow morning I am going to Calgary for Christmas. I'm excited to see friends and family. I'm sure the eight days will fly by so fast! I got my dad the movie Terminator.
My roommate accidently turned the dryer on while my cat was in it! He tumbled around in there for at least 10 minutes before she realised an odd thumping noise. When she opened the dyer her facial expression told me that he was definitely DEAD. BUT luckily he stumbled out, completely frazzled and de-poofed. I really thought he was going to die. My poor Charlie! He's just such a trooper. I called a veternarian to see what we should do but she just sounded really astonished and told me to watch him for a couple hours. He's ok, but it was so scary to watch his little heart pound and his tongue hanging out of his mouth for a good half hour as he gasped for air and re-gained his vision. Story of the MONTH!
Other trivial news in the life of Val. My friend Andy actually understands that we're just friends and that I don't want a boyfriend. I thought this would be such a big deal to bring up, but he seems to be ok with it. I'm relieved. I think it's ok to love people and not have to be "with them" in a monogamous relationship. It's kind of a habit of mine to have really good sex with friends. We don't date each other, but still love and respect the other person enough not to hurt them. I couldn't see my life being any other way right now. I bet I'll change my mind in the far head future, but right now I'm young. I want to travel the world. I want to learn. I want to help others. And I'm very sure of what I want and don't want. I only got to figure these things out by being alone. Sometimes I think it's odd that my friends are moving in with their significnt others and I'm not into that at all. I moved to Vancouver to be on my own and I'm finding that I just like having time to myself more and more often. I just want to be reclusive for a while and just ride my bike, work, do my art, read, and have the odd coffee or movie night with people. Sounds lame, but I like to save my energy for summer when the nights are long and I'll be spending those at the beach... oh yes. And hopefully more biking/camping adventures.
The end. merry xxxmas.
