update, such as it is...

today was a swings and roundabouts kinda day. i went to a function at the DGA, that i have been to every year since i joined, except this year, i failed to get in. first time ever! crazy. apparently to get in i should have showed up 2 hours early. their organisation SUCKED. it was the first year you could RSVP for the event, instead of just showing up. you'd think this'd make it better, but apparently not. so yeah, i got up super early for nothing. which wouldn't have been a problem if i hadn't stayed up til 2am on friday...lol. oh well. THEN i got some GREAT news; the former exec of the the division at technicolor that i worked for (who i love) who USED to work where i currently work, and in fact was instrumental in hiring me the first time i started there (wow this is convoluted!) is coming back, he's taking over as the exec producer, so we'll be working together again! i am very happy about this as frankly the woman who is in charge right now (or was, cause she is now gone!) was pretty clueless. i sent him a text to tell him how much i was looking forward to working with him again. its gonna be fun!
then i went to see 3 horrible houses. ok, the first one had a terrible layout, which was very disappointing since i was really hoping otherwise and my initial impression was favourable, in fact when i walked into the place i was excited cause the living room, dining room and kitchen were great...the problem was that the bathroom was tiny and could only be reached by going through a bedroom (either of the two bedrooms in fact) the bedrooms were also very small...but it was the bathroom that was the deal breaker! the second place was scary, i think a whole exterior wall was about to fall down! i was somewhat afraid that the roof would cave in on my head while i was in there! the third...was a funhouse. each room had a floor which sloped in a different direction. it was also a dark, dark cave of a place...all in all another disappointing day of searching for my future home.
BUT then i came home and made dinner and kat and alyssa came over and we hung out til about 10 minutes ago and it was soooo much fun to finally meet alyssa in person! i have known her over the internet for 18+ months, but she works at the vancouver branch so we have never actually met before! she was actually just as i had pictured her! it was a great night. so we finish today on an UPswing! yay!!
tomorrow i have a skype date with charlotte, she told her mum that she wanted to talk to me, so sarah set it up. lol. i have to get up in 6 hours so she can talk to me about kittens and moshi monsters...i need to get some sleep!!
in other news; i booked my trip home!! yay!!! first 2 weeks in april, time for passover and by then i shall have a NEW niece to squish, though of course her big sister will have most of my attention! lol.
