Update

I don’t really have anything to say, but I thought I’d give a little update and let you all know that the funk lifted on Friday evening. It likely had something to do with the fact that I had “Orientation Day” on Thursday at work, so going back to the actual job on Friday felt like a Monday.

Other than that, the weekend’s been pretty uneventful. I’m sure I could make a few things I did sound exciting, but it just seems too much like work right now.

The blow-by-blow is in the extended entry:

Some Days

Some days are really, really good. Some days are slightly less than good. Some days are even really bad. Today’s not a really bad day – but it’s not anything I’d call good. In fact, it’s so mediocre it’s painful, and I can’t imagine going through days and days like this on end, living the … Continue reading Some Days

Tidbits

Just a few tidbits about the job today that have struck me as noteworthy: I have to enter a number of discount codes. Although all the abbreviations make sense in the context, taken out of context, they’re kindof funny. One of them is STUPD. Type that enough times, and you’ll never type the word “stupid” … Continue reading Tidbits

Weekend Redux

I have absolutely nothing of any importance to say. Friday night I hung out with my lovin’ man and watched tv. Saturday I attended a lovely friend’s housewarming – wonderful time, thanks again dearheart! Saturday night I braved the horror that is a Greyhound bus from Vancouver, at the scary Pacific Central station (right on … Continue reading Weekend Redux

Multi-Media

I don’t have much to say on each of these separately, so a bulk entry seems appropriate: Books: There was a book fair at work today, so I picked up Simply Yoga, Eats, Shoots and Leaves and The Lovely Bones. All three for under $35. Yay! Video: I signed up for DVDFlix.ca on Tuesday night. … Continue reading Multi-Media

Gmail for the Boobies

That’s right folks, three more up for grabs. I’m not sure how well this will go over, considering they’re free and all, and the availability has spread rapidly through my circle of friends – but they’re coveted, and I need the help, so here’s the criteria: The Gmail accounts will be granted to the first … Continue reading Gmail for the Boobies

Ironic

I just processed a contract for the new business located at the old office of my former place of employ. I wonder what they’ve done about the green walls…. Continue reading Ironic

Ladies Night (part deux)

So unfortunately, Skybar is all booked up for the 30th of June. Bummer. So I’ve rescheduled – to Wednesday the 28th of July. Conveniently, the day after my birthday! Anyone who wants to join in the fun (guys and gals alike) are welcome. You just need to be comfortable with male entertainment. Continue reading Ladies Night (part deux)

Sadly Lacking

After spending most of 8 hours of my day infront of a slim, stylish, sharp 19″ flat panel, going home to my husky, dusty (although perfectly fine) 17″ flat screen seems somehow dissatisfying. Now I know why men cheat. Sometimes the grass *is* greener (and each blade more perfectly defined, with amazing shading…..) Continue reading Sadly Lacking

Leader’s Debate

I plan on watching the leader’s debate this evening, along with at least a large chunk of the rest of the country, I’m sure. I did manage to get a sneak preview though. I watched en Francais (with a translator, of course) on cpac yesterday. I didn’t know that Jack Layton was born in Quebec, … Continue reading Leader’s Debate

I got groceries too (told ya I would eat) but I really don’t wanna check my bank balance. -My … Continue reading Random Thoughts
