Well I think I see another side
Maybe just another light that shines
And I look over now through the door
And I still belong to no one else
Maybe I hold you to blame for all the reasons that you left.
And close my eyes till I see your surprise
And you're leaving before my time.
Baby wont you change your mind?
Surely don't stay long I'm missing you now.
Its like I told you I'm over you somehow
Before I close the door
I need to hear you say goodbye.
Baby wont you change your mind?
I guess that hasn't changed someone
Maybe nobody else could understand
I guess that you believe you are a woman
And that I am someone else's man
But just before I see that you leave
I want you to hold on to things that you said
Baby I wish I were dead.
Surely don't stay long I'm missing you now.
Its like I told you I'm over you somehow
Before I close the door
I need to hear you say goodbye
Baby wont you change your mind?
Meredith is sitting at my window in a hoodie, watching people outside... in a v. creepy fashion. Now she's singing horribly out of tune and it is not conducive to writing a blog entry. It's very distracting. I have just kicked her out of my room... but she just crawled onto my bed and laid in a fetal position... now she's trying on some of my clothing. She wants to start a podcast. All depends on if my laptop's microphone is decent enough.
P.S. I'm wearing a crown. I wear it a lot. I have delusions of grandeur. Well, delusions in general.

Sometimes I see a
Little fluff float by my head.
Am I the Deathstar?
(P.S. In my head the fluffs are tiny renegade fighter jets.)

All in all, it was a wonderful birthday. And not just because I made Alexi dress up like a princess at work. (I had princess stuff for me to wear, but then he did too... Oh god, there was a little plastic pink purse and a wand and EVERYTHING!) Not just because I drank a giant girly drink and laughed like a fiend all night and got to witness a car accident (calm down, no one was hurt). For SOOO many reasons.
This was a great bday. (Annie made me this for my bday... she knows how I love Russ.)
Now I have to go to sleep because I work 9am to 3 tomorrow (9th day working straight) and then I have class from 4-5:30pm. I'm sick (I did catch whatever the lad had) and I'm tired, and goddamnit, I'm NOT shaving my legs tomorrow.
P.S. I am quitting EB Games... they want too much of me and I have school to think about. I'm going to miss videogames and all my nerdy friends sooo much, but school comes first.

So today my parents took me to Michael's (I've had a giftcard from there for about a year now) and I got some new canvas and an easel. I also got this canvas gardening apron that I can put all my brushes and stuff in while I'm painting. We got a new covered kitty litter too so the cats don't destroy the apartment with their poopy smells.
However the best thing today was that my dad got me a new cellphone!!!! I freaking love my parents.
The Sony Ericsson W580i
The picture quality is pretty good, as demostrated by Meredith.
*sigh* Good birthday.... Even though it's not until Sunday.
P.S. Annie, I can't thank you enough for giving me that Lush stuff and the tshirt (nobody knows what Buddha Dog is here). I am definetely addicted to Lush now and it shall bankrupt me in the future.

So Alysson is here finally. And I'm sooooo unbelievably happy. She came over last night and her, Meredith, and I had a lovely fun drinkfest. Meredith went to work this morning and Alysson went to her first class. I luckily don't have to work until 4pm so I had time to nurse my hangover (which I have only had once or twice before). I went to the bus stop with them and then went to Rideau and picked up a little housewarming gift for Alysson. Then I wandered home and talked to my mom on the phone a bit. Then I staggered across the street and picked up some nice hot soup and a steaming hot green tea. I visited with the girls who work there and we talked about how nice the neighbourhood is and how strong the community was blah blah blah... Anyway, then I stumbled back upstairs and devoured my chunky wonderful soup and the toast. (They packed it in a paper lunch bag for me, how cute!!) Anyway, I've been watching National Geographic all morning. Except for the mocking Curves commercials, I've quite enjoyed it.
I should probably give myself some cold shower time to get ready for work but a) I'll put it off until the last minute like I always do and b) I'm watching The Battleships (Covering the napoleonic wars, the civil war, and the hms deadnought). Before that I watched Mafia Women (Women connected to the criminal underworld talk about their duties) and before that I watched Wild Indonesia..... All in all, good tv.
Ooo! My cell phone rang once and then stopped ringing! WHO WAS IT!??
Also, I heard a low flying plane today and it was deafening. I was so used to it growing up near the military base, but now it's weird.
Also, check out the Bob Dylan Message Generator (via TheGeneratorBlog)

Smello everyone.
Spy on Ottawa with the following live webcams:
Confederation Park
Parliament Hill
National War Memorial
National Gallery of Canada
I want a room with a whole bunch of big tvs displaying all of Ottawa. I can just look out over the city. I can know when the vendor has fresh veggie dogs ready and then zoom down and get them. Muahhaha.
Also, a panda was born in the San Diego zoo. It's not being named until it's 100 days old. WOOO PANDAS
Gah, I have to get showered, dress, and give the apartment a quick tidy. Meredith cleaned the other day so it's pretty good, but I don't want it to get icky. I dusted the inside of the fan and it was GROSSS! I can't believe we were breathing that crap. Well, I'm off.

Firstly, let it be known that I can't take a picture of myself. At all. I can't do it.
I don't want to talk about it.
Hopefully you've noticed that I do my hair better than the stylist. He flat ironed it and it just made my head look huge. I use this lightweight rootbooster stuff, and it's EXCELLENT. It's the end of the day, so my hair has fallen since I did it at 8am, but it still looks pretty good.
Secondly, I went to Sue's for supper. We made chicken alfredo and it was SOO good. She has a really nice stove. I want a new stove. *cries*
I'm opening on the morrow. I should probably catch some REMs.
P.S. When I come home from work and shed all my clothing, the kitties snuggle in them because they are warm and smell like me. This is adorable.

1. Stand slightly to the side and place one foot in front of the other.
2. Hold arms slightly away from body.
3. Put your shoulders back, your chest out, and gently suck in tummy. (Can't see through baggy tshirt.)
4. Stick your chin out away from your neck.
5. Turn away until the last second, then whip your head around and SMILE!
There you go.
Sadly, this bundle of hotness is off to Montreal until Saturday. And then I'm leaving on Monday, so alas, we shall not be together. She will have to do cat litter, which is gross. Muahahah.

Firstly, Olivia tried to crawl into Meredith's shoe this evening. It was hilarious and adorable and I snapped a picture.
Secondly, today the kid (Josh) from Ben and Jerry's gave me free ice cream and I was overjoyed. OVERJOYED! Also, apparently they get to go on Facebook,etc while at work. I KNOW! I'm jealous too. Anyway, he was talking about this creepy lady who hangs at the mall all the time, who is called "Grudge Lady" and how she loves Cherry Garcia... and then out of nowhere, his nose started bleeding! Really bad! We think that Grudge Lady was in the mall and put a hex on him.
Thirdly....
Just what you craved when you awoke this morn wasn't it?

- Wallet- has all my monetary/discount card/receipt holding needs covered
- Beauty Club card- never know when you're going to need a quick wax or some emergency professional makeup application
- GIANT Elvis sunglasses- because of those DAMN RAYS OF SUNLIGHT
- Ibprofen- mainly because other people ask for it... not because I use it.
- Hairbrush- never use
- Day planner- controls my life. would fall apart without it.
- Burt's Bees product... (hand lotion, skin salve, lip chap)
- Crossword book- I'm hopelessly addicted.
- The Adventure's of Sherlock Holmes- read this on the bus, before bed, etc
- Annie's FM transmitter that she left when visited last (whcih I wholey intend to return)
- Bus pass- I'm in BIG trouble without this
- Hair elastic- I hate this hair elastic and never use it. I don't know why it's in my purse
- Cell phone- I'm in big trouble without this too. This is my phonebook, my secondary organization source, and my watch
- Mini-deoderant stick- Just in case
- Giant hairclip which I like better than hair elastic.
- iPod- for the bus mainly. I love this little guy
- pen- for crosswords and daybook

This morning I watched this thing on Discovery channel about the endangered Vancouver Island Marmot. Now I love them so deeply. . . I went on Meredith's computer and made this her wallpaper to make her aware of the shrinking Vancouver Island Marmot population.
LOOK AT THEM! THOSE TINY MARMOT VARMITS!!
Also, at work the other day I shocked everyone by doing that rap out of the Backstreet Boy song "Get Down"... In response, Patrick sang Fergalicious. The. Whole. Thing.

I came home and almost tucked in to some Kraft Dinner, when my Aunt Kathy from Toronto calls. They are in town over at the Minto Place, so I met up with them. Little Jake desperately wanted some Micky Dees, so we went to the one on Bank and chowed down.
Then we went over to the Parliament Buildings for the light show but were about twenty minutes early. Kathy took a gazillion pictures and then we watched the light show. It's a short film about Canada's history and culture, etc. At the end Oh Canada comes on and it's sooo beautiful, I secretly teared up a bit. I don't think Meredith likes it, but it's because her heart is cold.
Uncle Richard is definitely one of my faves. A) He's hilarious B) He and I have the most random conversations.
Exhibit A:
*at the parliament buildings*
Richard: What is that music? Stompin Tom Connors? No, no... that's not it.
Me: I love the architecture here. So beautiful.
Richard: Who the hell is it. It will come to me.
Me: The doors, I loove the doors...
Richard: No, no... it's not The Doors.
Me: No. The actual doors. The architecture of them.
*a moment of silence passes*
Richard: If that gargoyle fell, it could kill a man. *sound effect with fist punching palm movement*
KD in my tum!
You never settle well there...
Yet I still eat you.

Today Sue and I met up and had drinks at The Blue Cactus. We also had some calimari with this excellent asian dipping sauce. They also served tortilla with an amazing guacamole which had some kind of melon topping it. I never thought to add a sweet fruit to guacamole and you can bet I'm doing it in the future. I also had a Bailey's Banana Colada. A chick drink if I ever tasted one, but it was wonderful. I think I'm going to forward the recipe to mum and dad. It's right up their alley. Sue and I talked about her niece and nephew and her family stuff and I talked about how I hate boys but love them also... gawd they're stupid.

How am I supposed to funnel my daily thoughts onto the interblag without livejournal. (Some kind of poweroutage knocked out it out.) It's horrifiying. I started writing a note on facebook and I was quite shocked that I still had to type out the html. So I decided that I'd come back to Blogger and write this out. Then I realized that I had to write a haiku and find an adorable picture to put next to it.
In a pink tutu,
Singing songs for Howard Moon,
You know, I'm OOOLD GREEEGGG!
Anyway, because I just made the Ontario Modwolves group I have Boosh on the brain. Let the record show, Boosh sounds like the street name for a cheap drug.
I'm very bored. TV is boring. Internet is boring. Tuesday night/Wednesday morning... What's a girl to do? I just got this black short-sleeved jersey minidress (that's a lot of adjectives). I desperately need to go out and wear it. Meredith and I wanted to go out this weekend, unfortunately I barely worked last week and had a mini pay check so we'll see what happens after we buy groceries on Thursday. (Notice: I had enough to buy the new dress with many adjectives...)
I'm bored. Call me up! We can go for a romp or something.
P.S. I think I'll just paste this into a Facebook note...

I'm packing to go home (I know, I have to wake up in six hours, whatever.) But my cats are making it very difficult.
They know I'm packing to leave them. It's sooo sad. They are softly mewing too.
I'm going to visit my parents and friends from the 4th-6th and I'm very excited. I bought a new bathing suit. (In this picture, it's the second from the left.) I'm excited to lie on the beach with Alysson and Annie for a few hours.
I also have a video and a few gazillion pictures of my cats because they were really cute this afternoon and I'm already a crazy spinster. (I'll be the crazy spinster aunt who gives her neices and nephews a quarter to make them like her, but they will think she is cheap and smells funny.)
I have my kitty pictures hosted at Flickr, so just go on over there and check it out. No sense in posting them all here. Friend me on Flickr while your at it.
Here's a video of my KITTEEZ!

The wee bikini
Or is it just my bod.
A bit chunky now.

Don't let them change youBecause you are far too fine
To warp in that way.
I'm right behind you RoRo! Also, Janette... very clever.
In a similar move to Rosie, I left my spot at Reitman's over schedule conflicts (I.E. They weren't giving me any hours and had me "oncall" all week.) I have moved to EB Games and think I'll be a lot happier there. Now I can wear my Yoshi/Mario shirts to work.
The weather is BEAUTIFUL here. A little humid and muggy, but I can get through it. I love just looking out my window and the beautiful world around me. It looks like something out of a movie and I can't believe that I live on this gorgeous planet. If someone told me tomorrow that I live in a dome where everything is kept perfect via computer, I wouldn't be surprised.
Today I watched the marathoners cross the finish line at city hall and this evening Meredith and I went for a walk through Confederation Park to Parliament and back through the market and up Rideau. It was beautiful and cool. (Well, still warm enough for me to wear a tank top and capris comfortably... but you know.)
