Well Geez, I haven't updaed my journal for a long looong time.... What to say... really? I'm a boring person. Just working and living day by day I guess. Work is work, and I hope and pray that Shannon finds something soon. 1 income and Torin's semi reliable rent are not enough to keep things going... and to be honest, It's a tad stressfull... but as it goes... for better, worse, sickness, health, richer, poorer etc etc... I gotta stick by my honey because if I was in the same situation, I know he'd do the same for me....
It's winter time and of course with that, brings snow. And the city plows that plow the snow up to the sidewalk... which makes it incredibly difficult to get into a waiting vehicle. When I phoned to ask the city for help to remove the snow that *they* plowed in front of my sidewalk, they told me that they would not remove the snow as i had access to the street from the alley and that I also didn't have a handicapped sign in front of my house. So, I've since escilated this issue to our Alderman. Dunno what's gonna happen (if anything)... it's kinda frustrating since I feel like a small fish in a big pond. The 311 rep was like, 'Oh I can send another service request to the city, but it's doubtfull that they'll even do anything'.... Well gee thanks a lot dorks! So, again, I don't know what if anything will happen with this whole deal.
I guess I can just wait and see on that one.
What else... Uhm... Christmas will be with Tammy and her CRU. I really didn't wanna spend Christmas just me and Shannon so we are glomming on to her celebrations so that's nice. Mum and Dad were already here for their early Christmas and we spent a surprisingly enjoyable evening together. There was laughing and joking and smiles and well yeah, it was nice. :) I had a weird feeling that I should have taken a picture of the event so, Shannon did the honours.
Found out there is a medical clinic inside Sunridge Mall. It's tucked away so it's a secret little place where not too many people know about. I was in and out of the walk in clinic in less than 20 minutes way cool! The doc though is not taking new patients though. I pulled my achilies heel last week and holy crap that hurt. Took me off my feet for a day but the pain killers are sure nice. I haven't had any body aches for almost a week now... twinges here and there, but no body aches. :)
TV is quiet now over the Christmas break, however I am watching Coronation Street and this past week marked their 50th Anniversary. Something happens to change the street in a big way and people are still buzzing about it. A lot of Canadians I know are torrenting it and are aware of what's going on also.... but still I'm not going to spoil. I just sat there today and was like "Holy shit!" when it happened. I was riveted to the tv and even Shannon who never watches, was watching with me. He says he likes the exciting stuff though. Also watched "Burried" and "The Social Network".... the first one... *yawn*... guess they didn't have to have a big set budget or anything... all the supporting actors and actresses litereally phoned their lines in....All in all, it was some time that I won't get back ;) I was kinda expecting a bit more like the guy finally making out of the box and looking for the fuckers who put him in there! But sadly no.... "The Social Network" was good. I would compare it to this generations "The Pirates of Silicon Valley". You know, one computer guy screwing another guy out of this or that... blah. But now I have the hiccups and I think I am gonna go to bed and sleep for a few hours. Hopefully Suzie will come over with a screw gun so Torin can put together my desk... and then I can start moving stuff into the other room... Yay!! So on that hiccupy note... I'm off... See you later and thanks for reading!!
