Drank way too much last night, well actually I probably didn't drink that much, just sickly coolers and then some jello shooters as well. Anyways it turned out to be too much for me and I was not the best at 2am.

I went to a party in a garage where a couch was brought in to the garage from the house as well as a TV. It was quite funny actually. Then went to the Trip Inn, that in itself is also comical. It reminded a lot of going to a club in Bonavista.

This morning I awoke with a headache and a bit of a bad stomach but it cleared up by mid afternoon thank God.

Jeepers it's been forever since i've posted on here, I'm watching Desperate Housewives now. The prince charming from Ever After is on it.

Bah this is going to be such a long week of work. I have a few things planned so that will break it up at least I guess but I like having short weeks or something to look forward to. Tomorrow I have taking my dog to get her nails cut to look forward to, ahh the joys.

Last week I met up with a few old friends from Bonavista. It was quite fun. People have changed quite a bit and I was kinda afraid but I survived.

Sometimes I feel like I don't fit in with anyone anymore. Clusters of people I mean.

I have some really close friends but they're all separate and they're all great as well.

So i think i'm having people in this saturday, for anyone who wants to come that is.

This does not include you Mr. Stranger. Ha but who am I kidding right?

If you know me and want to come you know you're welcome, just no meanies allowed.

I have to get out of this habit of staying up exceedingly late during a work night and then being a zombie the next morning. It doesn't bother me right now but tomorrow morning I'm going to be as crousty as a fork.

I watched The Village tonight, it sucked terribly. The ending was creative, had its quirky slant but all in all I'd have to say it sucked soooo much. Not as bad as the Break-up which sucked even worse because the ending was so terrible but still pretty bad.

Bah is all i have to say, I want curly ringlety hair.
Oh yeah I want to bleach my hair blond too, I think I really need to do that between now and Friday. When I take a colouring fit I need to get it out of my system asap or it will drive me nuts. Then when I'm done being a blond I will go bright red!!

It's been so long since I've written on here, I kinda forgot about it. I tend to use msn spaces more so than here because it's so much more easier to access, I guess that's why. My last night of freedom and sleeping in on a long weekend before I have to go back to work again.

I can't wait to have more time off again. That won't happen till June 9th but I still can't wait. And I can't wait to go back up to Mississauga to stay with Gary for a week, it's the only time our relationship seems somewhat normal, being together for an extended period of time that is.

I mean I get to see him every one to two weeks normally but I wish it could be more. And he's one of the few people I can be around for a period of a week and not drive me crazy, I guess because he's pretty laid back and I do try as well heh heh. I've been up there three times so far and each time I feel closer to him rather than him driving me nuts. I sure hope I don't drive him nuts but I've asked him before and he has said that I don't. And I know that this is the way it has to be, the distance thing, because of his job and stuff, and I accept that to a degree but that's just the way I am, of wanting to be able to see him more than that. I would think it wierd if I didn't want to see him more. Ah well.

My favourite part of my trip up there last time was spending the day watching the Trailer Park Boys box set, it was just so fun doing nothing, saying nothing but just hanging out. I got him a new season for his birthday so I can't wait to go up and watch that one.

So what else is new then. I went to Bonavista for a day last week, it was terribly boring but a fun road trip with mom. We stopped in Clarenville and went shopping, I had a really good time on the way down. The past week was spent hanging out with Alyson and Jeremy while they visited, we met up with Mike a few times, which was cool. Funny how you can see these people once a year and get along but then not talk again for another year. I would love to hang out with them more but I am not their friend, I just don't fit in with them, I never did and I never will, but I've accepted that.

So I've coloured my hair again, it's a blah brown now, I am at a loss as to what to do with it. I would really like a new hairstyle as well but I haven't the slightest idea what kind of style would suit me. I just know I'm sooo bored with my current 'do.

The Family Guy is on, it's the season finale and as normal is quite funny. I watched the Desperate Housewives season finale earlier but there were so many loose ends, I really wish something was clued up on the show.

So that's it, I am going to make soup tomorrow (mere repetition), chicken and bean with vegetable, perhaps bake some kind of cookie and that will be my day. Pretty uneventful after not writing here since my 27th birthday, I think that's how old I am, jeepers imagine being so close to 30. It's terrifying really.

Argh another birthday, another year, next one will be 28. That's scary
I had a great turkey dinner though from ma, yummy ice cream cake and some cool gifts. Tomorrow night we go downtown to celebrate officially the coming of my 27th year in this world. It's also my friend's brithday this Sunday so it's sort of a dual celebration. Got to pick up me alcohol tomorrow. I wrapped a bunch of gifts tonight, I'm so glad I have most of them now, just got a few odds and ends to pick up and to look for some unique things.

Tomorrow is shopping day, time to hit the new Sears store in the Avalon Mall, though I was there two days ago. I love it though, everything is so neat and tidy. Then it's to Swiss Chalet for the festive dinner with my mere. Then it's drinking and downtown. I'm deporifying my nose as we speak.

Next weekend this time I may be in Mississauga visiting Gary. I'm either going up Friday or Saturday and staying for a week. That should be fun. He'll be in classes during the day till about 3pm but I plan on going out and exploring the place in between, walk around and see the sites, discovering new stores, perhaps even taking mass transit. Who knows, I'm kinda excited about exploring. The last time I was up there it was just a complete culture shock, I loved it up there but yet there was so much to see I was mind boggled. So this time I sorta know a bit about the place so I can spend more time looking around.

Hopefully we'll go to Niagara Falls again, which is my absolute favourite place I've been as of late. And then perhaps go to the US, that's so freaky how you can just drive to the US. So hopefully it will all work out and be a wonderful trip and I will have no ear pain.

I'm so excited for Christmas to be acoming. It's the best time of year.

I'm also going to the shelter in St. John's tomorrow for my dog Noel to meet a dog that's up for adoption there. If they get along and no one else adopts here we may. Her name is Coco and she's about 10 pounds, a cute sandy coloured dog, very quiet and kinda looks like Benji in the face. For some reason I just think she's right for this house, I don't know why I get that feeling but I do. I mean she could be adopted by someone else, and if she does that's great, I just want her to have a home. And Noel may not even get along with her at all but for some reason I think she should live with us. But actually I think all dogs should live with me so that's nothing special.

I love looking at the results of the pore strips once you peel them off your nose. It's so wierd.

drunken ramblings
well not soo drunk that i'll be hung over tomorrow, just really buzzed and willing to speak my mind yes...that's the key.
went downtown, had fun, drank a lot of coolers which are good, talked to some people who thought i was 20 when in fact i'm NOT heh heh that made me happy. couldn't find someone but then as we were leaving found him, but he was so drunk we helped him to get home, hopefully he did so.

i like dancing to 80's music, it's fun. wish that i had found him earlier rather than just before i left but that's better than nothing i guess. the one thing i like about when i'm drunk is that i say what's actually on my mind rather than be afraid to say it, now if only i could incorporate that into my sober life hee hee, because i won't be drinking probably for another month or even longer now. oh well...

i keep finding that the more i actually say what i'm thinking the less anxiety i feel. i keep thinking that people don't want to hear what i have to say but then when i get it out it's like they don't really find it that big a deal when i did. so what is it that i'm worrying about anways? Why am i so concerned with what others think?

It must be a thing about being in your 20's that it matters what other people think.
it does to me anyways. ...

Mega headache happening tonight...

Which I hate for a Saturday night....that shouldn't be happening.

Had a great day of shopping today, bought some really cute stuff really cheap.

I've been wondering why I'm such an anti social person, not in a I hate not having friends type of way but in a way where I don't crave human interaction on a regular basis, I'm just as happy sitting in my basement bedroom alone with my dog nearby. Now mind you I miss my dog when she's not down here with me, which seems like a lot more lately because she is in her latest fit where she wants to stay upstairs all the time.

I mean I like having friends and I am afraid they may get the feeling that I don't want to talk to them and stuff, it's just that I can't physicall be around people constantly because it drives me nuts. I need time alone, a lot of time alone, to think without interuption, and not intelectual thought just mindless thought.

There are a lot of people I haven't seen now in a long time and I would love to see them except if I have to be the one to create this meeting then it probably won't happen anytime soon because it's just not in me to do, not at this moment anyways.

I will get to a point where I will crave social interaction again, usually every few weeks I do but I do much better if offered this situation by someone else. Because once in the situation I do enjoy myself quite a bit, just that thinking about it deters me more than anything.

And now on a completely opposite note; I've been having some strange dreams about a friend who came to visit recently. One of them involved her being dead and coming back as a ghost to visit me but only for a short unspecified time, and another time to go shopping at a convenience store located in the battery hotel to buy ice cream and some other strange events. And the last one for her to tell me she wants to get a dog and me thinking that i thought she was going to tell me that she's pregnant but really that she just wanted to tell me she's been thinking a lot about getting a dog.

Strange eh? I think all in all those dreams just mean to me anyways (what it makes me think of) that i miss her and I feel like I don't really get to paricipate in all of her life because we only get to see each other once a year.

I dunno...

I've got another friend who I sooo miss going downtown with and drinking and getting subway. We only started hanging out last fall and then she moves away this january but it was awesome because we had the same taste in everything and she use to like the same downtown stuff as me and we'd always get subway afterwards and i'd get her cheese. heh heh not too often you find someone who has the same likes as you.

Then there's this guy I date but because he doesn't live here and only comes down every few weeks it's like you don't want to let youself get attached in any way because you don't want to miss him...I mean there's enough people in my life right now whom i miss...and it sucks because we hang out then he goes back home and then i have to try to not let myself think emotionally, I don't want to let myself get as attached as I did to someone else i once dated because when things were bad it wasn't nice. At least if i keep distance then i don't have to go through that again.

ho hum
oh so tired of everyone and everything.
listening to smashing pumpkins reminding me of 1997
i do like hibernating though in my basement

i was so sick last weekend
gee willikers
went downtown last friday night with my sister and her friends and a friend of mine and drank more than i ever have and was sick more than i ever have been or can remember anyways...don't even remember a lot of what happened once i actually was drunk, remembering strangers looking after me while my friend went to get her coat in the sundance and tell people we were leaving.

i have never been sick an entire day and night before, stomach sick, god, and unable to eat anything at all. though my niece came over that night so i had to buck it up, because we were having a sleepover so we ate junkfood and that helped a little.

i like having sleepovers in my basement apt, it's just nice to have space.

so no more drunken nights. time for more hibernation

I can't wait to move downstairs and have my own place although i'll never have money again. But space and privacy is worth that I think.

I bought some liner for my kitchen drawers today, it's a clear industrial looking plastic, I think it's cool. I also priced some organizing shelves at Wal-Mart to go in my closet, in a few weeks I should be moved in. Mom and dad are downstairs doing the kitchen cabinets right now.

It's such a nice day out day, very spring like, maybe I'll take Noel out in the backyard for a bit.

I have a big problem with this

2005-03-15T16:22:52Z

I just heard a news story from Ontario where they have a law banning pitbulls that the SPCA is being forced to bring pitbull puppies to the pound so that they can be put to sleep because they're banned in the province. I just don't think that's right, they're being put to sleep because of who they are without being given a chance to live and to see what they will actually become.

Because people don't know how to look after their animals, to raise them and to train them, the animals are being punished. How can an innocent puppy be such a threat that it has to be put to sleep?

People have to realize that dogs are wild animals, domesticated by humans and they have to realize that you have to treat them as wild animals. And that can mean providing the right training to control the dog, proper fencing, protection etc. That is if you do want to keep them as pets.

People have to stop thinking that because the animal grows up in your home that it loses its instinctual nature, it doesn't. And to those who think it's fun to have little pets around to play with, you need to think again, you have to look after the animal.

It makes me think of the idiot who had the dogs in Chapel Arm that attacked the woman. They were that way because he didn't look after them, lack of proper housing, food and socialization made them that way plus the fact that they were in a group and that's their instinct. The SPCA in that case did get to save one of the animals before the event occured but the rest were lost.

I have to express my opinion on this, and no matter what others may think the owner is the one at fault (he should either look after it and if he realizes the pet is more wild than your normal pet then have it properly restrained and trained)

It's horrible when a person gets bitten but for example in the instance of the person at Chapel Arm if the dogs were properly restrained and not let to run free it would not have happened.

I would hate to see what would have happend to my dog Noelle if she had been in the hands of some other owner. I definitely think the possibility would be there for her to harm someone else if she weren't looked after and left to be on her own all the time and mistreated. And guess what, she's not a pitbull, and the dogs that attacked the lady at Chapel Arm weren't pitbulls. It can happen with any breed if the abuse is there on the side of the owner.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
