It's my birthday today!!!
Today is my birthday!!! Although it's fun to know it is, it really doesn't seem any different then any other day. I'm lazing around reading a book, mostly with Tom curled up behind me, with his arm around me. He's napping because he's got a really bad headache. I think it's because of lack of sleep over the last few days, and probably lack of "proper" nutrition... MacDonalds doesn't count as real food.
I enjoy a good lazy day, and like to have at least one a week... because last weekend was so go go go, this day, although it's my birthday, has become my lazy day. I'm about to look up Yuk Yuk's and find out what time the show starts and maybe I'll do that with Tom tonight, if he's feeling better. If not, I'm content to continue lazing around, indulging myself with reading, silk, and sugar...perhaps some CSI, or a movie.
Yesterday was great fun. Went to Johnny Farina's, where all 12 confirmed people were there. There was Myself, Tom, Jon, Peter, April, Nathan, Haytham, Mike, Ive, Kevin, JP and Sophie. As I figured, the two groups who knew each other, kind of split into two sections, but the people in the middle(who didn't know each other) all kind of merged, so it was ok. I was a little worried about that because I didn't want to seem as though I was neglecting either group. But dinner went off without a hitch. Hopefully, everyone else had as good a time as I did.
Then the first seven ppl went to see The Grudge. It was originally planned that we were going to see it at the World Exchange, since it was so close, but we left dinner so late that when we got there, it was sold out. We ended up going to the AMC in Kanata to see it. For Posterity, here I must mention the ladies bathroom at the AMC. It is HUGE!! I'd say it's probably bigger than Jon's whole apartment....but maybe not. I kept expecting to see some act come and perform in the large, open, mirrored area. The movie itself was alright... very very creepy. So creepy that I'm very glad to not be alone right now, and it was task enough to walk into Jons room without having the lights on. I'm eager to go back to bed and Tom.
We all came back here, except for Haytham, did nothing more than laze about talking and taking pictures. Peter drank and Tom and I started to drink, but in the end didn't bother. I'd only slept for a few hours on Friday, since I was busy the rest of the day, so I was fading pretty quickly at the end of the night.
I got a card from my mom(she's pretty ticked that the present didn't come with it... watch out Canada Post people if it doesn't get here soon) Sophie made me a pair of earrings, which I really like. Peter brought me some pretty flowers, and April and Nathan got me a gorgeous smelling candle...the kind in the big bottle...which I can't wait to burn in the new place, it smells so grand, a bottle of Smirnoff, and a gift certificate to Wally world, for apt. stuff, since they didn't know what I needed. lol.. Jon is currently out shopping for my present, and yes I know this as he told me so before he left. And I will soon find out what Tom got me. I also got ecards from my Aunt Nancy and my cousin Dave :)
Topper of my Friday night, Lorraine called.... Tom and I are accepted in the apartment we applied in!!! and we got the highest we could get, the 15th floor. We're both pretty happy with that. And while there is no indoor pool, there is an outdoor, which I'm happy with. The kitchen is a little smaller than I would like, as you guys know, me in my kitchen is where I'm happy. But there is a dining room off of it, where I'll put the table, so it'll just be an extention of the kitchen. I just can't wait to get in and be putting things away and arranging things and discovering what needs to be bought :D Oh I can't wait.....
