Little Miss

I have so much to write and I'm sure so much that I have forgotten.....

~ my bff is 7 weeks preggers!!!

~ the boy bought me my engagement ring (hasn't actually proposed yet)

~ went home for a weekend wedding of an old friend, was a stressful weekend to say the least

~ I've slipped back into my bad girl ways (having fun but do not want to go into details)

~ my other friend found out she is having a boy, which is what we were all hoping for

~ pretty sure I failed my mid-term that was worth 40% of my final grade....I was too distraced by bad girl fun to actually study

~ starbucks liqueur mixed with coffee and a good friend make depressing Sundays a billion times better 

~ I feel fat

Okay I am sleeeeeeeeepy. Hopefully I'll be less distracted and more creative from now on.

I had to leave work sick today. I was super naseous......and no....I am not pregnant....I think I'm getting my period as we speak (sorry, tmi).

Interesting weekend but I'm too tired to go into any details. My new hours at work are 11-7:30. Sucks but at least it's full-time.

Not pregnant:( I'm so sad....and worried too. If I'm not having a baby then what the hell is wrong with me? Hmmmmm....

On another note...

Someone at work quit so I'm moving up to full-time again AND possibly getting a raise! Wheee! I think my hours are going to be 8-4, which is great!

I just found out that one of my dearest friends is 15 weeks pregnant!!! I am over the moon for her! I couldn't stop hugging her and she is gonna be the cutest little pregnant person ever!

Weirdly enough I've decided that before I go out for the two big drinking bashes this weekend that I need to take a pregnancy test! I know I'm probably just getting my hopes up but here are my reason's:

~ I don't remember when my last period was other than that it was in July and it was only 2 days long, and the one before that was also very short

~ I have been having cravings for things I normally don't want (sour cream and onion chips especially)

~ things that I usually have a ton of are making me sick (mostly dairy....maybe I'm becoming lactose intolerant...I'd rather have a baby thank you very much)

~ I am bloated beyond belief......I don't think I've ever even been bloated before...now it's constant

~ I've had a lot of headaches (a web site I checked listed this as a sign)

.....also I found out that many women don't have any morning sickness at all, so that explains that.

Omg, omg! Okay...I can't get too excited or I'll end up feeling really depressed this weekend if the test is negative. Eek. Okay, so if I get any money from un-employment tomorrow I will buy a test tomorrow and take it. If not I'll have to buy one on Friday. Not sure if I can wait that long:(

So, it's that time of year when I start to think about Hallowe'en and costumes. This year I'm hoping to go to Ottawa to spend the weekend with Laura. She and I have an enormous passion for Hallowe'en and she also has cooler friends than I do (I kid....sort of). Here is the dilemma...since I have no money, and since I will also have to get a bus ticket (with no money)  I need to create a costume with minimal cost.

I would LOVE to be any of the following:

~ Queen of Hearts

~ Alice in Wonderland

~ Pinup girl

~ Rainbow Bright

Here's what I could do without spending money:

~ Cowgirl

~ Sexy Devil (old costume I never got to use)

~ Sexy Bat (costume my sister left here)

~ Witch (just need a hat from the Dollar Store) OR anything black really as long as I get accessories from the Dollar Store

EEK! I'm getting excited just thinking about it!

On another note;

Marky-Mark did leave without saying good-bye...stupid jerk. We got an email from him with a link to a website that will be tracking their trip. They are already in Manitoba. They are supposed to be back in 8 months and I know the time will fly by....but I also know that trips like that change people a lot and the Marky-Mark I know may not come back. Ah well.....hopefully we will be making plans to get out of this city by then (fingers and toes crossed).

Can I just say for the record that I HATE THE NEW FACEBOOK! I know I'm not the only one that feels this way.

I'm not even sure where to start with the events of the past week. Well, actually most days nothing really happened. I picked up a couple of extra Uppercrust shifts at work, and work in general seems to be getting better. On Tuesday my cellphone died so Wednesday after work I went to the Telus store to switch my account back to my old ghetto phone (which I freaking looooooooove). Get this.....they said either I take a direct exchange or they would charge me $25 to swith the account to my old phone. WTF?? Since I had no money I said I would exchange...they send me over to the bigger Telus store across the street (I kid you not...it is like 2 minutes away) because they have my phone in stcok to do the exchange. I get there, explain the problem, and the girl says it will be $50 for an exchange. I just glared at her. Thankfully I must have looked really mad because she said she would waive the exchange fee (um...technically if there is a fee then it's not an exchange right....help me out here). Anyway so now I have another HTC piece of crap that will probably die in another 6 months AND I lost all my contacts even though she said I wouldn't. I really, really despise Telus.

After all the cell drama I get a call from The Boy that his 'friend' (we really don't know her that well) who was just releases form the psych ward for the second time, had basically had him and M hostage in our apartment for 3.5 hours. Apparently she showed up at the door demanding Xanax and had the guys freaked right out because she was screaming things off our balcony and swearing and throwing stuff around.

I arrived home just as the guys had convinced her to let them walk her home. I only saw her for 5 minutes but it was really scary.

 Later that night (I was already in bed) she called and said she was coming over. The Boy said 'no' but she just started screaming at him and then hung up the phone. I called 9-1-1 and asked them what we should do. They told me they couldn't do anything until she actually showed up at our place. She showed up a few minutes later and seemed to be a little more like her normal self. Ten minutes later she completely lost it. She threw a glass of red wine at the wall (which is now stained), and she threw everything within her reach at C (including a remote, my entire back-pack, and a bottle of hand lotion). I snuck outside and called 9-1-1 again. Less than 10 minutes later the police and an ambulance showed up. At first it seemed like she ws going to be able to talk her way out of it because she was being really calm, but we didn't really know because they were all speaking french. Then they took her away. C later told us that she had really been ranting to the police about the way Jesus wants them to do their job.

So Thursday at work I was SO tired and I had agreed to do two extra hours. I came home and fell asleep right away and ended up missing my class. We also found out that the girl is back in the hospital. I really hope they keep her in there this time.

Yesterday none of us really had the energy to do much. I did a bit of school stuff, then The Boy made mango chicken curry (which was super yummy) and we rented '21'.

Next weekend look like it will be much better. I have a b-day party at Trix on Friday and another b-day party at Winnie's on Saturday. Then the weekend after that we'll be in Wasaga for a wedding and to visit my cousins!!!

So that's my recent happenings....slightly more eventful than usual if I do say so myself. 

I SOOOOOO do not want to go to work tomorrow. Mondays are horrible because I have to work 8:30am-noon at Starbucks, then 2:00pm-7:30pm at Uppercrust. GROSS. The only good thing is that L is making sure I don't go over 20 hours a week so I can stay on un-employment.

Thursday was okay. I met the new chef, Will, and omg...HOT! He's new there too and doesn't speak any french so Tara and I are on a mission to be his friend. On my way home I walked through the mall and spent the last of my money...oops. I bought a new sketch book that has cute little hedgies all over the cover, and a beeeeeea-u-ti-ful blue bag. I love my new bag so much, and it was on sale!!! I am so horrible with money I know but this bag is too good to be true....so good that I'm gonna post a picture of it since it is so good-looking!

I had a little chat with J on Thursday as well. Nothing too important until he said that if he were the D.J. on my radio station here in Mtl. he would play "Walking on Sunshine" on repeat. That's a story that goes way back to when we worked together. I love it when he remembers stuff like that.

Thursday night I had class. I was a little disappointed because the last time I had that Prof. the class only had nine people in it and it was so much fun, this semester there are 50 people in the class. Ew. She remembered me though which is awesome and also she's not making us buy a text-book which makes her SUPER AWESOME!!!

My weekend was pretty blah. Finished watching season 2 of The Wire with The Boy. Talked to my sister. Had coffee with Lisa. The usual stuff.

And now I'm off to put fresh sheets on the bed.

Second day of work was boring. Absolutely nothing to say about it, other than the fact that I really want to find another job. So does L, and so does Tara. I applied to a place called Opinion Search and got a call about 15 minutes later. I find that a little weird so I looked the place up and saw that other employees don't really like working there. I hate call centres. I also applied to the cafe on campus in the cont. ed. building. Hopefully I will here from them tomorrow.

I dropped my H/S class. I didn't even go to the first lecture. I figure I really can't afford two classes plus textbooks and since H/S was an elective I decided to put it off for now. I am super excited to start Health Care Systems tomorrow though!

I'm feeling pretty blue right now. I miss home, my family, my bestest, J, etc. I also think that Marky-Mark might leave without saying good-bye which is pretty sad, he's one of my favourite people that I've met in Mtl.

I feel like eating an entire (big) bag of chips but I'm not hungry. I am 100% an emotional eater but I am taking these apple cider vinegar pills that are supposed to curb your appetite and they seem to be working a little too well. I want the chips and at the same time feel like I'm gonna puke if I actually eat them. Weird.

Almost time for bed....I think I'll start a new drawing first though to calm me down.
