Realizations & ramblings…

1.I\’ve come to realize that my last ex:
is troubled, but taught me a lot.  For which I am grateful for, more then he\’ll likely ever know.

2. I\’ve come to realize that when I talk:
it\’s usually a complaint about something, I really need to stop doing that…
3. I\’ve come to realize that I love:
my mother more than anything in the world. <3

4. I\’ve come to realize that my friends:
are people I can\’t live without…my TRUE friends anyway.

5. I\’ve come to realize that I\’ve lost:

Too many things dear to me that I can never have back again.
6. I\’ve come to realize that I hate:
arrogance, ignorance, pride and self involvement.

7. I\’ve come to realize that a marriage is:
far from easy and takes a lot of work & effort on both sides!

8. I\’ve come to realize that, somewhere, someone is thinking:
too much, not enough or about something that\’s negative and stressing them out far too much.

9. I\’ve come to realize that I\’ll always:
be who I am and that\’s all there is too it.

10. I\’ve come to realize that I have a crush on:
the wrong people more often then not but sometimes I do OK!

11. I\’ve come to realize that the last time I truly cried was:
when Jason died, I\’ve never felt so heartbroken in my entire life then I did at that moment.

12. I\’ve come to realize that my cell phone is:
slightly overused as of late and a piece of crap.

13. I\’ve come to realize that when I wake up in the morning:
I always go back to sleep for a couple of hours because i\’m in love with my bed when I can.

14. I\’ve come to realize that before I go to sleep at night I:
think about how it\’s way too late & read to distract myself from overthinking and make myself sleepy.

15. I\’ve come to realize that right now I am thinking about:
too much, finding a job, Micheal tying me up, how on earth I\’m going to pay my bills, my latest failure and how I think too much overall.

16. I\’ve come to realize that tonight I will:
spend time with myself trying to sort my life out yet again and send random text messages 🙂

17. I\’ve come to realize that my school is:
a thing of the past, I\’m done with it and I am actually looking forward to going back.

18. I\’ve come to realize that tomorrow I will have to:
keep looking for a new job and hopefully get some sleep and hang out with Shane & company for his birthday!

In other news, as of October 30th I no longer have a job…  So first thing I did was started looking for another one as soon as I got home!  I won\’t post the details here for professional reasons at this time.  I would very much prefer not to burn any bridges until I leave.

Thank God I have skills!  Everything happens for a reason and hopefully I end up with something better in the end.  I\’m very much looking forward to Shane\’s birthday Saturday!  He\’s a dear friend with the most lovely wife ever and I haven\’t seen him since my own birthday in June so it\’ll be nice to see him!

I <3 long weekends!

I also LOVE Akismet!  I highly recommend it to anyone who blogs and gets a ton of spam comments/trackbacks like myself.  Now I don\’t even have to deal with them aside from giving them a cursory glance to make sure that its not a comment from one of my friends.   Same thing with recaptcha software that too has come in pretty handy I have to admit!

So I have Monday off for thanksgiving, which is always nice!  I don\’t bother going home to Cambridge,  Ontario because its really just too damn long (8-12 hours depending on how I get there) and well its quite simply not worth it.  Also the last time my mom asked me if I was coming home and I said no, she said good lol.  Mostly though because I\’m here in Montreal and my sister and her family usually ended up doing whatever with the in-laws.  Maybe this year will be different but in any case  I won\’t be there.  I\’d rather come home at Christmas knowing that I could see my whole family and have more time to visit my friends as well.

Speaking of my friends…  I have to share this random little story.  My good childhood friend Adam used to text me all the time via his work cell phone but then the texting privileges got taken away and then sadly he got laid off.  So anyway he got called back to work and now has a cell phone of his own so he asked for my cell number so he could text me but the messages were never going through to me.  Long story short, he saved my number as 519 area code as opposed to 514 so he was texting someone\’s landline which is hilarious because we call each other fucker and often lol.  I can only imagine what those people were thinking when texts meant for me were going to their home phone ha ha!

On another random side note:  you just can\’t fix stupid also jacked from that thread is this because well, most people should know by now how I feel about stupid people 😉

Laughter…

truly is the best medicine I would think, at least lately!  Work was actually fun today!  Krystal and I had a blast and so did Donna and myself.  I haven\’t laughed that much or enjoyed my day at work quite like I did today in a long time.  It was nice for a change!  I\’m still dealing with Thursdays horrifying events but I\’m not forcing myself to \”feel better\” I\’m just going to go with it and enjoy the little things a little bit more then I used to.  It shouldn\’t have taken the death of someone I cared about to kick my ass into gear but like I normally do, I try to find something, anything no  matter how small that\’s positive!  In any case if the boss heard even a 1/4 of the conversations we have at work sometimes we would all be fired!

Carly\’s coming to Montreal for the first time since she left to move to West Virgina and I am SO excited about that!  I really can\’t wait to see her 🙂  I will be exceptionally dissapointed if I don\’t!  I know she\’s going to be insanely busy with family things and of course all the visiting she has to do but dammit I\’m important 🙂

Heddy (lovingly known as Kitler) pulled quite the epic stunt earlier when I got home and I wanted to kill her!  Don\’t get me wrong, I love my slightly psycho crossed-eyed cat.  However that loves tends to fall to the wayside when she attacks my face because she got one of her nails caught in my shirt and I knew she was (this close) to having one of her fits but couldn\’t get her off of me in time!  So needless to say, I\’m not impressed with her at the moment!

Soon though she\’ll have a friend.  Poor Jackie has an array of the feline sort that need foster and forever homes and she has one kitty at her house that I LOVE!  His name is chocolate and he\’s a Persian of some sort with the most beautiful blue eyes ever!  Sadly he\’s not a fan of other cats and well Heddy\’s off her rocker sometimes so that would be a bad match!  So since I\’m not picky about whom I take I might be getting tou-tou who\’s a regular old tabby cat and he\’s a cutie!

Nothing exciting really, the tea room was quiet today.  Although we had one woman come in (with her son) who wanted to buy scones to take home and Donna asked her if she wanted some butter to go with them and she said no.  Then he\’s like yeah well *I* want butter!  Mom being sensible says I don\’t want to butter them in the the car (fair enough) then he gets all pouty and says just do it!  I\’m thinking to myself Jesus Christ you spoiled brat if you were my kid you\’d be getting a smack for that!  This is one of hundreds of reasons why I *DON\’T* want kids!  Their parents spoil them horribly and then when they don\’t get their way, all hell breaks loose!  Funny how neither my niece or nephew are like that.  I\’m not just being biased because I\’m their aunt, they\’re just really good kids!  I don\’t think my sister realizes just how good her children really are.  I adore them <3
