What a rather up-down left-right sort of holiday season. The past month has been a whirlwind of...things. Just things.
Jack has been gone for basically a month. I thought it would be a chance for me to be one with nature and commune with old friends and such...but not quite the case. First of all, I started my new job. Its been a lot more work than I'm used to, and its quite a trek, but I do really like it. Getting used to the whole 40 hr. getting up early schedule took awhile, and I was rather anti-social for a time, but all in all I adapted rather quickly.
My best friend/roommate/husband, or affectionately, Jare-bear, has been road tripping all month, so its been rather lonely, both my boyfriend and husband gone, hah. Jare stopped by for new years eve rather surprisingly so we of course did our dorky routine of ignoring the world around us and watching movies. Fittingly for new years, it was The Godfather.
I decided to re-socialize myself then out and so neighbor chris and I had an appropriate new years day consisting of beer, football, and the glorious potato salad from fattys. trust me, this is one potato salad you would want to eat again and again and again...just thinking about its gloriousness brings a longing to my heart....Anyways, mostly i've just socialized with neighbor chris, we made chicken and salad the other night and wondered who in god's name would sleep with female body-builders, and of course whether or not they had real boobs. Don't ask, it was mostly Chris.
Meghna came out Friday, which was amazing because I've missed her soooo much! We went to Buster's and drank our asses off and danced like crazy drunken women will do. I somehow got the grand idea to have meghna and I walk back to my apt (couldn't drive...) and awesomely, the drunk bus pulled over for us...or perhaps it was the short bus....
Last night was jim's birthday and it was really nice getting to see the subhouse gang again, as well as getting to chat with Chad. That boy and I have been through so much crap, so it really means a lot to be able to sit and chat with him and it being totally cool. He really is a great guy and a hell of a lot of fun to hang with, he just wasn't right for me, so i'm glad we can still be friends after all we've been through.
Today I had to go to stupid ottawa because everyone seems to be a moron (long story) and our basement flooded again. I would have been there before had it not been for work. But anyways, lots of water, lots of destroyed things, joy. On the bright side, I got to see B before he went back to Eastern.
Oh, there is my snake, peeking out of his log. Bastard gave me some sass the other day. I gave him a talking to though. I'd hate to have to make him into a headband or wallet or something of the sort.
Someone PLEASE remind me what the consequences for roommate-icide is, because she irritates me to no end. I've had relatively annoying roommates before, but this one is the splinter that gets stuck in my finger and no matter how hard you try to pry it out, it just digs deeper and deeper and becomes infected. Yeah. How? I don't even know, we barely talk, yet other than this shannon chic I got stuck with this one time, this girl just makes my blood boil. Perhaps its the loud, "I don't care if you hear or have guests over" bedroom relations she has. Maybe its the "I'm going to be in the bathroom forever at random times, but mostly when you need to be in there." Or perhaps its the not lifting a finger to clean a damn thing in the entire apt. while Jare and I do EVERYTHING. Actually, what really gets me is the dramatic SIGHING. yes, sighing. You'd have to be here to notice, but it grates on your mind after awhile.
Well, I think i'm going to randomly go to Wally-world because what better time is there than 11 p.m. for that?
