Progress…

I do love me some progress!  You know what I don\’t particularly care for?  The big ass pile of paperwork that\’s currently on the other side of my bed.  I could think of much better things to curl up into bed with…  Anyway I registered a domain today, for Jason\’s foundation & I submitted the paperwork for a name search/reservation.  Of course you can do this online (for free), however it doesn\’t work (of course) however at least I\’ll have the paperwork needed to submit along with my pile of paperwork all for $37.00.  So I\’m pretty much going cross eyed reading reams of manuals, forms and applications.  I was going the registered charity route, but after doing more research changed my mind.  I know the government must have loved that!  So now I\’m back at square one, but that\’s OK.   Mainly because going not for profit offers my foundation more freedom in terms of who I can give my money to.  Simply put: registered charities can only donate to other registered charities wheres NFP can donate to whomever they want to as long as they\’re not for profit or a registered charity.

This is turning into a slightly costly venture though I must say.  I get the name check because then you get a patent and registration from the government.  That\’s important, people can look that stuff up and in order to hold events and what have you its crucial to this foundations well being.  So to apply for that its $145.00 which I don\’t currently have (but I will) then I have to go visit a notary and God knows how much that\’s going to cost me.  I get that too though because if they made it easy, then everyone and their mother would be registering not for profit/charitable status for the tax benefits.  It is however a bit of a hassle.  The thing that\’s the most irritating?  Having to download/print a \”translated version\” of the paperwork!  Because it has to be submitted in French (FFS!) such a hassle!  They won\’t accept it if you submit it on those forms *sigh* sooooo got that out of the way.  Called my other directors (you need at least 3 people to do this) and now I\’m playing the waiting game.

Have to get the name OK first, which is on the way.  Then I have to get the paperwork completed and signed by Krystal & Donna.  So I\’m heading off to NDG on Wed to go see them and hang out for a bit.  So if anything I feel like something is happening, even if its going to take a while.  I like progress, its important.  At least I think so.  So in the meantime I\’m going to start working on the website because that will likely take me longer then anything else.  I can\’t make it public until I get that paperwork, which sucks because I want to tell people but I haven\’t told anyone as of yet.  Its not that I don\’t trust anyone, its more so if in the event that I don\’t get the name that I want then I don\’t have to run around and explain everything to everyone about the change and what not as well.  Doesn\’t matter because the domain is bought and paid for so no going back now lol.

I\’m going to bed, its not even 3am.  My sleep schedule is kinda futzed up but I know I\’m not the only one 😉  Oh what I would give for a normal schedule, but then again I tend to loose track of time with some people.  But its awesome when I do!  However the whole lack of sleep thing sucks, especially when its not happening to you.  I can at least go to sleep and I know that.  I have lots to do though, laundry, buy some food for a change!  Stuff like that.

Oh man…

Or I should say oh damn!  I\’m not going to elaborate, I flat out refuse to \”divulge\” some details on here.  But let\’s just say if things work out in my favor which needless to say they haven\’t thus far…

I\’M GOING TO HAVE ONE AWESOME WEEKEND!

Which is just as well, seeing as how this might be my last free weekend ever.  But I shall see…  In any case, maybe this is a sign that things are looking up for once?

Stay tuned 😉

PS: CC: I just may have some decent gossip for you ha ha!

*EDIT* Whilst in the middle of a rather awesome dream at 10:30 this morning I was jarred awake by the damn phone!  Once I realized it was Dominic from one of the interviews I had I was a whole lot less pissy so I have a job trial on Sunday morning!  He told me that he tried out 2 people so far, one failed miserably and one was only half good.  I can top that or at the very least attempt to.

So today I have a few \”loose ends\” to tie up with a few people.  Laundry has to get done *ick* hate doing my damn laundry!  The this evening is bound to be good if I get that phone call.  I shall see!

What can I say…

I\’m a slacker, I\’ll own up to it.  Mostly because I have nothing really interesting to post, seriously.  Seems like most of my life drama is finally sorted.  Certain events changed my perspective on things but in a good way.  Certain people have been either removed from my life or their place in my life has shifted but sometimes I feel that this is a MUCH better way to go.

My face has pretty much resumed back to its \”normal\” look.  I found an awesome new dentist so I\’m really happy about that!  EPIC dental fail shall be resolved next Thursday.  Got myself a ticket to see Manson with a bunch of friends so that should be pretty freaking awesome from what I have heard.  Metallica is in town too and I am ITCHING to get my dirty little fingers on a ticket for that show along with 6 of my friends.  Hello scalper!  I should be more responsible with how I choose to spend my money I guess but I love Metallica and they haven\’t been here in forever so screw it you only live once!

My tattoo is pretty much healed, and was problem free in spite of being exceptionally ill when I got it in the first place.  Boys are driving me crazy as of late but really is that anything new?  Work seems to have sorted itself out for the most part which is always a nice change from the norm.  So yeah pretty boring stuff I have to admit!  I finally got around to updating the about page, starring yours truly!

Anyway its Wed, might do something worth mentioning on the weekend…  Who knows, stay tuned 😉

Another day is finally over…

OMG WANT! <-my birthday is coming up soon-ish

So today was…  Interesting to say the least.  It was busy, for a brief period of time during lunch and I tell you some of the people we had today astounded me to no end!  This one woman who quite obviously liked to call attention to herself a great deal or is blind or damn near close to it was wearing the most outlandish outfit EVER!  Try and picture this:  A woman who appeared to be in her late 50\’s with a gigantic bouffant of hair wearing an orange sorbet colored headband and a ton of exceptionally tacky jewelry.  Topped of with a matching orange sorbet colored blazer, which she had draped a rather obnoxious neon orange/pink/yellow shawl teamed up with wide leg leather pants and these HUGE white framed sunglasses that reminded me small plates.  I couldn\’t help but laugh every time I walked by her, or seen her because she looked ridiculous!   I had my camera at work today and I was tempted to take a picture because if anything for the entertainment value!

Then this jackass got all pissy because we don\’t serve clotted cream.  Which is illegal in Quebec (thank God because the thought alone makes me want to yarf something awful!) because its not pasteurized EWWWWWWWWWWWW!  Being a Chef there is few things I will turn my nose up at without trying it, this would be one of them.  Anyway back to this jackass…  He got all snotty because I told him while we have our own version of Devon cream, we only make that for special orders and for afternoon tea and we don\’t currently have any on hand.  Generally scones get served with butter and our homemade jam which he didn\’t want.  Fine, he asked for dessert instead.  Since he had 3 other people with him and I was working alone at that time I had my hands full trying to prepare this order and serve people.  He walks back to the table and proclaims quite loudly that \”we\’re useless because we don\’t have cream.\”  I\’m seething, thinking you immigrant asshole it might be acceptable to treat woman like shit in YOUR country but this is Canada sweetheart and I ain\’t going to tolerate that shit for a second!

Thankfully Donna came back upstairs and I let her deal with it because I was pissed off at this ignorant and rude comment and was fighting the urge to stab him in the face…  So Donna goes over with their order and offered them lemon cream which Krystal had just brought up from the dessert leftovers.  So he got all arrogant with her too!  Donna told him the same thing we usually only serve it for afternoon tea, to which he replied\” well its the afternoon and I\’m having tea. \”  Not the same thing!  So Donna (God bless her patience!) gave him the low down on what afternoon tea (dainty tea) was  and that it required a reservation and all that.  He\’s like well we drove in from the west island blah blah blah, so?  We have people who come to the tea room from the US and Europe which is a whole lot further then the West Island jackass, next time ORDER AHEAD!  Oddly enough, when they went down to the bakery they were super nice to the boss lady.  OK yeah Donna and I don\’t look as old as we actually are, especially Donna but that doesn\’t give you the right to dis-respect us in the least!

I mean seriosuly…  Are you kidding me!

In other news:  I FINALLY got kitler\’s litter of choice!  They only had 4 bags in stock so I bought 2.  She\’ll be good for the next couple of months 🙂
