*le sigh*
Alright, so LONG ASS TIME since a post, so here goes....
Updates are as such...
Work: No longer nanny for the Gremlin. I am now the manager at my old work! Franke moved to Toronto, so I took the spot. This weekend was fucked up in that respect though....I was told I would be working the big pow wow this weekend (Manito Abhee) on Wed./Thurs. & that the hours were Sat.: 9 a.m. (originally the possibility of 7 a.m.) 'til 11 p.m.; Sun.: 9 a.m. 'til anywhere from 6-9 p.m. In the end I ONLY put in 13 hours on Sat. (9 a.m.-10 p.m.) & Sun. 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Kinda forgot it was daylight savings time this weekend, so I almost got to the MTS Centre for 9 which would have been *twitch*, but that's a horse of another feather.
The pow wow was fun however. The dancers were awesome. Grand entry was AMAZING. I love it when the Tiny Tot Dancers (aged 2-7) came out. They were so cute in their outfits! & then today when I got off work I looked in at the competitions that were being held. They were the Men's Feather Dancers & then the Women's Fancy Dancers & it was amazing. Lots of cool vendors too. Wanted to spend my moolah, but I resisted the urge. :P One note though, THE FOOD AT THE MTS CENTRE IS CRAP & OVER PRICED! Seriously $6.50 for a Bison Burger or Indian Taco is fuckin' highway robbery!
I found out today that I get Tuesday off, so all is good there & I might be going to the big pow wow in Toronto next year, so that will be awesome! :D It makes me happy, as do a lot of things lately. Except for forgetting about DLT....that kinda sucked. lol
Living Arrangements: No longer living in Commune v.3.0! I now have my own place.....no having to worry about a child in my own home at 2 a.m....(while it's true that my neighbour has kids that doesn't count in what I'm talking about...lol)...there is no answering to anybody else as to why I haven't been home in 3 days except to sleep....& it's QUIET! Now one may say, 'Wait, Mishy hates quiet,' & while that IS true. There's background noise which is nice & then there is pandemonium! Child crying in the next room, people in the next room being loud & annoyingly obnoxious PLUS movie in the background that you've seen every night that week with the undertone of loud music from upstairs....so I like quiet to an extent. Random noises, ok. Background music/movie (that HASN'T been seen 10 time in the last week or so), ok. Pandemonium, not ok.
Sparks: Want to rip my hair out....stressed from that plus the move, plus work, but I'll live....By the by, if anybody eats pringles I would ask that you SAVE THE TINS! I need about 13/14 tins BEFORE Dec. 14th, & I don't think I'm gonna make it! Oh, & lots of small slurpee cups (the smallest ones). If anybody can donate those to me for our Sparks/Brownie X-Mas camp that would be AWESOME!
That's about it, if ya wanna know anymore, then talk to me in person or e-mail me! :P
