I went to the water slide park this weekend.  Had a pretty good time.  I slathered on sunscreen and prayed to the flying spaghetti monster that I wouldn't get burned.  Well, the good news is I didn't get burned as badly as I typically do but I still got a sunburn.  My back and cleavage are are red and my arms and the back of my legs are sporting ( Read more... )

Was perusing my khaki/summer pants collection this morning.  Decided to try on a pair of Jacob pants that I haven't worn in three years (because my ass got so fat).  Well, surprise, surprise!  They fit!  They're still a wee bit snug around the waist but I managed to button it and zip it up ( Read more... )

I need a fucking vacation or maybe a spa day.  I'm so desperate for one I could cry.

p.s.  I seem to have a love/hate relationship with my Origins ginger perfume.  When I first put it on in the morning, I can't get enough of it.  However, by 12pm I'm so sick of it I want to take a second shower just to wash it off.  Seriously, Origins WTF?

They'll be running the Olympic torch by my work on Friday.  I'm pretty excited.  The only thing is I'm off on that day so I'll have to haul ass to work and bring my kiddo with me so he too can watch.  He probably won't care since he's only 2.  lol.

Last full day of my vacation. Am currently in San Francisco. Beautiful city. If I had to leave Vancouver, I'd move here. Love the Victorian homes and the Palace of Fine Arts.

Just saw on my flist a post about the Twilight crew once again coming into town.  As much as I love the actors (and the novels) and the revenue it brings into my city, I am so not looking forward to the crazy twihards.  I just kind of wish the actors would get a little bit of breathing room so that they could enjoy this fine city that I live in.  ( Read more... )

Just got some sad news.  My aunt just passed away from breast cancer.  She battled it for 2 years but it was just too much.  I also heard that my cousin just gave birth to her second kid 2 days ago.  Am saddened for her and my uncle.  Am wondering if my aunt got to meet her second granchild ( Read more... )

was @ my parents' place today.  Decided to wash my face.  After, I asked my mom if she had any lotion and she said, "oh try my Oil of Olay foam."  I said okay.  Squirted a teeny tiny amount on my palm and rubbed it on my face.  Well it's now 2.5 hours later and my face is itchy and burning like hell.  I'm trying really hard not to scratch my ( Read more... )
