I've been in Tokyo for about a week now. So much to see and do. My feet hurt so much, but it is well worth it.

There is this guy at my job. A coworker of mine refers to him as our boss. The funny thing is that the guy who used to be in this "boss" position, I did view as my boss, but not this guy who is currently in the position. Why? Because, the job he has is more like an office assistant now, and he doesn't know shit about what I do at work. To me, you ( Read more... )

Hey. Happy New Year!

I've spent the past week having a wonderful time with my husband at our place in Toronto. Other than that, I've been planning the new moves I'm going to make this year, both literal and figurative. I've been going through the Canadian immigration package they sent the hubby. There is a ton of reading to do. I figure I'll read ( Read more... )

This weekend, I finally finished a dress that I have been working on for more than a year. For some reason, my projects have taken longer and longer to finish. It has easily gone from months into years. However, this one is done and I only feel a mild sense of completion. Maybe because I no longer feel connected to it. My style and tastes have ( Read more... )

For more than a year, I've stopped writing regularly. It occurred to me that I kept writing about the same things. I even thought of finding my old entries and then making an entry linking to the old one with a revision. With moving within the next year, I feel like I'm on this giant countdown timer to get all the things I've always meant to do, ( Read more... )

I got married last Sunday! Since I don't have any photos of my own (all with the photographer at this moment), the only way I can illustrate how I felt that day is with this video:

Aside from that, it was a very small ceremony attended by my family (mom, dad and sis) and P's family (mum, dad and bro). It was super sweet and perfect.

1. Confirm the number of people attending.
2. Confirm who is staying in what room at the inn.
3. Confirm the number of fish and chicken entrees/dietary restrictions/wine selections.
4. Decide on which wedding vows to use.
5. Try my ring on my chubby finger to check that it fits.

A little after this year started, they cut the hours at my job. No big deal, it was the only way they would be able to pay us on payday. The few paydays before this announcement, they would tell us that there was not enough money and that they would pay us as soon as they could. I have to admit, it was pretty sweet getting up late and leaving early ( Read more... )

Friday was my dad's 64th birthday. As a present, sis and I went with him to Sam Ash on Saturday morning. The plan was that he would pick out a guitar and an amp and we'd pick up the tab. But, once we got there we all got insane and giddy. So on top of the two items, he also picked out a guitar stand to hold two guitars and a soft case that has ( Read more... )
