I don't even know how to begin this. So I won't ( Read more... )

1:: Elaina gets food poisoning...
The major parts of this charming event were outlined in the last post. It should be noted that by early Monday I could eat a banana in something under twenty minutes, by Monday night I ate a cheese sandwich, and by today I was eating absolutely everything in sight in order to replenish all my lost nutrients. I ( Read more... )

Last Saturday was the wedding ( Read more... )

Again, I have a morbid need to piece things together right now. I still don't feel up to talking about what happened. We still don't have all the information and the police are talking about the massive amount of witness statements they have and John's parents are talking about lawyers and everyone's talking about insurance and covering shifts at ( Read more... )

I need to write some of this down in order to decompress. It's a bit morbid, I suppose, but the last few hours have been so emotionally draining that I need to get it straight in my head in order to get past it. I'll write out what we found out about what happened (believe me, it's a crazy story), but not right now. Right now I just need to deal ( Read more... )

Sunday, we were supposed to go to the Wildlife Park so that I could look at the bears. Just as we were getting up to go, Boston Pizza called and hired me. Hooray me! Seconds later, John's mom called us and asked if we would like to go swimming. Mere minutes later, John's older sister called and asked if we could help move John's younger sister ( Read more... )

The ceiling will probably be white and the rest of it blue... And the bathtub will stay the colour of lemon pie filling ( Read more... )

Today we watched the Super Bowl at Katie's, but I didn't really care too much for it. Football is a little ridiculous. Yesterday night I worked, and John got robbed. They only took the pizzas, but it was still pretty weird. Working there is getting sort of trying, even at only one day a week. Things keep happening. I've called the cops a lot ( Read more... )

Was good. Presents were had. I received a royal load of dishes. Odd, because I didn't need or ask for dishes. The new ones are more awesome than the old, though, so away they go ( Read more... )

So I went with John's entire extended family (including sisters, brother-in-law, parents, brother-in-law's parents, three dogs and two friends-of-the-family) to go pick Christmas trees out in the woods. We had food and campfires and hot chocolate and stuff. It was okay. It's weird being around a family that's family-oriented ( Read more... )
