Hookers & Blow

So I went to the gym yesterday, I'm on the hack squat machine, (which is when they have weights on your shoulders and you bend your legs, only on an angle) I get off the machine in between sets and on my third set I'm like holy fuck this is hard. I thought it was just me because I haven't been to the gym in 10 days (I know I'm bad). Turns out this douche bag is behind me putting weights on the machine AS I'M USING IT. What a cunt. I didn't notice till I finished the set and get off and look at it. I'm like holy fuck, she had added an additional 65lbs. She looks at me and laughs and was like "oops I thought that's where you put them...Bet you that was heavy". You know how machines have weight bars at the bottom, she was just putting her weights away. I demand people be tested for IQ levels before letting them near heavy equipment!

Sabrina at work yesterday was like "how come you never told me there was something in my teeth?" I honestly had not noticed...Then she proceeds to pull a thread off her shirt and try to floss with it. Is that not abnormally weird?...Or am I just jealous she's smarter then me, because I probably would not have thought of that? I vote for jealous, it did however make me laugh my ass off.

I got to sleep in today. Apparently I'm not going to the gym, there's no one even in my house...Odd. I have nothing to write I'm just rambling. I'm going to have a coffee and lay in the sun for 3hrs till work....mmmm sun.

PS...Raynna I'm very impressed and proud of you.
PPS...This title is from Jim's blog and I liked it so I stole it.

Weekend pics

Amanda & Cherisse

This was taken on Paul's front step Saturday afternoon.

And the rest are just random pic's of Lilac Fest. For those of you who don't live in Calgary it's basically shops,shows & music for 25+ blocks of downtown

D, Jim, Me, AJ & Sabby. Ran into Sabby and D for a minute.

I harassed this guy last weekend at princes island park too. I fuckin want that snake damn him!!

This old dude was dancing his ass off. Was soo fuckin cute. He was bustin a move to Britney Spears.

So fuckin crowded, was insane.

Suck Fest

So yesterday I spent the day on my deck attempting to tan while my mother lectured me. She is taking my bank card/credit cards. Which is fine, I do need help. It's not like she would take them if I didn't agree. So we negotiated and she felt $50 a week is enough. Which it is probably, but damn $50!! that's gonna be tough. Gas and shit is not included. That's just spending cash. If I don't eat out I can even party on the weekend. Well we'll see, be prepared for super bitching later on.

We talked it all out, then she'd putter around the yard and come back (because she's been thinking while puttering) and be like AND ANOTHER THING. Then wander away...then come back. So when Sean called me to tell me he was running late, I was not impressed. So I escaped around 3pm. Picked up Sean & Amanda and headed over to Paul's place to see Cherisse. It was good times. I layed around and didn't socialize much because I was enjoying the music. Sean and Amanda are adorable they are very suited for eachother. I got to talk to Amanda too which I havn't really had a chance in a non bar scene. Jackie called me and that was hour long drama. She broke up with her boyfriend of 9yrs (she's 25) they own a house and shit. I'd like to go out and visit her in airdrie but I'm not in town the next two weekends. I hope she's alright. I told her I'm having a blast being single is awesome, she'll be fine. I told her not to let him have everything out of guilt, which is pretty much what I did.

Speaking of going away...I'm taking Friday off so that we can have a long weekend in Banff this weekend. We're leaving Friday morning and we rented a condo that has a water park in it. So excited. Even if it's nasty out it drunkin slinding!! I don't need to go outside. We have to check out the hot springs as i've never been. Sean mentioned some ghost town or something they wanted to check out. We have a reservation for the expensive fondue place. Happy B-day Sabby geez her bday is gonna cost a lot, 4.5 days left YAY!

So I went in yesterday for 4hrs and today for 4hrs. I went to the Lilac festival today. It was sooo nice out. It was ridiculous the amount of people. You couldn't even see what was going on. I'll post some of the pics I took when I get home, cause I'm "working" right now. So last night I worked from 8 till midnigth. Chris was crashing at Jim's so I went with him after work. We were going to watch a movie. I barely made it through the opening credits. Sun is exhausting. I'm so looking forward to going home to sleep. Wish me luck for week 1 of zero cash. Back to work...

It's Aliiiiiive!

Yah ok I suck. So what I went out and drank too too much. So what I woke up in my panties with no recollection of getting there...Again. So what I lost yet another Hickey war and have one on my FUCKIN CHEEK!! (Damn you Sabrina!). I didn't however offer anyone anything out of my mouth...yay! AND I didn't make out with anyone for cinnamon gum...At least no bouncers. That's practically behaved. The bouncer however said right as I walked up..."So I hear you were embarrassed about last week". (from who, who knows) I said "dude you don't know me very well if you think I'd be embarrassed by anything". Maybe like walking through work naked or something. That might cause me discomfort.

My mom is pisssssed off though. We're going to have a "Discussion" tomorrow. I think I've pushed the envelope too far. Leaving the boyfriend and moving home to "Save" money, and boozing it up for 4.5months and not saving a dime...May have consequences. Whatever, It was a fuckin wicked ride while it lasted. I figured I was owed. I was in relationships from 17 till 24yrs old. I was single 2 weeks at 21yrs old and that was it. I just had to make up for lost time...And boy did I. I'm going to pay out my ass tomorrow. My mom is just like me only with a wider vocabulary, so tomorrow should be a blast.

Actually I know exactly what she's going to say. I agree I totally need to save, and I have NO will power. I had two incomes to spend for 3.5yrs because Tim never fuckin left the house. So I was good with saving when I had lots of cash to blow on stupid shit too. So she actually suggested me giving her my bank card, and credit cards. Yes that's right people...I may be 13 again and have an allowance. I might actually try it too, we'll negotiate tomorrow.

So anyways last night was a blast. I was going to behave but it was all Nicole's fault. She has never come out with us before so I HAD to do shots with her. She fuckin impressed me too. I love her now. She walked right up to the bar and ordered two shots of JD to start. I'm in awe, a girl who can keep up with me that's awesome. So yah everyone got loaded. Michael was on the speaker dancing even. Raynna was so drunk she left because she was sick. I didn't see much of her anyhow because she was too busy in the booth *cough* "talking". Potter came out too. I really need to hang out with her more, she's awesome. I'm attempting to plan a girls night sometime in June. After Banff and Sylvan of course. If you have a vagina and read this, you're more then welcome. (hermaphrodite included)

I don't think I said goodbye to anyone though. Nicole, Sabrina and I went up to Nyla. We had fun, I don't recall much of it but I remember dancing and then realized I'd forgot Chris. So I dragged him up. He looked super impressed too let me tell you...Being on a dance floor with 3 drunk girls and probably the only white guy there. He looked uncomfortable so I ended up having to drag them away. Literally one in each hand pulling. They were totally oblivious and continued to dance while being led out. I couldn't tell you how I got to Jim's. I don't recall seeing Jim and Michael leave. We could have walked, taken a cab for all I know. Chris drove me I was told. My tolerance has lowered. I could drink this much and be only buzzed. Lately I seem to be getting out of control, because I'm drinking like I used too and I'm drunk on half as much. I'm fine with it..yay for being a cheaper drunk! I just need to get used to what I can drink again. I should be the opposite but I'm not going to argue.

In the morning Chris and I watched the Chappelle DVD. So fuckin funny. I neeeded McDonald's and Chris drove me to my car at like 1pm. I needed to drive home, shower, change and drive to work. Normally I LEAVE the house by 1:30, I didn't even get home till then. Fastest shower ever. I'm fuckin wicked I was only 10 mins late too. Least this Friday wasn't as bad as last Friday. I was tired but not dying. My hickeys aren't that bad either. It looks more like a blemish. I was just to tired to put on makeup today so I can cover it.

Tomorrow I'm going to pick up Sean at 2pm and head to Cherisse's. Should be fun times, I haven't hung out with Sean in weeks. We've been distracted by our new crushes. Not that I'm complaining Chris is awesome. It's cool that Sean and I are pretty much the same though. The crush is long gone though. No offence Sean but you know what I mean. Anyways I'm going to crash.

PS. Yah I'll have a threesome with you Kandygrl..mmm Johnny. Yah I can totally throw Eminem in I don't mind at all. Beez I wouldnt want to be drunk with hot armpit guy, I want to be sober so I can recall every spectacular minute of it, and LS I've been organizing orgies for YEARS.

Star Wars

I don't know what everyone is fucking talking about. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm glad I didn't go with the crew when they all went. 8+ people making sarcastic comments probably would have made me think it was cheesey...Mob mentality. T and I were going to go for coffee but then she harassed me to go see Star Wars with her. I had my Pepsi, my popcorn, and my quick sarcastic wit all prepared to rip into the movie. I was waiting for the cheese to commence. I waited and waited and there was only one scene that was truly almost intolerably cheesey, and that was the wookie swinging from a vine or whatever yelling like Tarzan. The "NOOOO" that I've heard so much about wasn't even that long. You guys suck.

However I was outraged at the preview of them making a movie of Narnia- The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I'm sooo bitter. You don't fuck with shit like that, their fuckin classics...Is nothing sacred. They'd better not screw it up or they're will be HELL TO PAY (lots of complaining and empty threats on my part.....bewaaaaaarreeee). I'm so excited about Mr and Mrs Smith though. I don't even care if it's the worst fuckin movie on the planet. It's like my dream threesome...Froth. Oh wait k my second choice for a dream threesome. My first being Jennifer Garner (not knocked up from that ass pirate) and Johnny Depp....Excuse me while I change my panties..Wait I'm not wearing any..DAMN I just washed these jammies!

You know what tomorrow is? Tomorrow is me going to Manhattan's and behaving...That's right Amanda making out with random bouncers for the cheap taste of cinnamon is dead. The Amanda that loses Hickey wars, and has to suffer the abuse of parents and peers alike for a week, due to large red welts, is dead. The Amanda that offers every stranger in the bar ice out of her mouth with no bias whether male or female...Dead. The Amanda that wakes up in her panties with no recollection of how she got home...Dead!! Well hopefully.... Phew, It's a good thing I'm out of cash.

Long weekend

Yesterday I woke up early to make some stupid pasta salad. I was lectured on leaving the door open before I was even totally conscious. Apparently in my haste to throw the spider and cover my exposed ass, I forgot the closing the door part. So it was wide open all night.....Oops. So yah everyone was running late. I made my salad and went to go get Sabrina and Raynna. We met up outside Sabby's place. I had a cooler with the salad and some Pepsi. It was fuckin heavy. I parked as close to Prince's Island park as possible.

Jim & AJ were already at the park. I called Jim on his cell, he's like uh..We're by a tree, and some grass...There's some dogs and a baby. Smart ass. I told him to kick the baby and we'd follow the noise. We parked our asses with the cooler and waited for them to meet us. It took them awhile. They were at the arcade apparently... You bitches BTW. They had to meet Guru first. So the six of us stopped in the field and layed out the blanked. Michael then showed up. We all played Frisbee it was awesome. Cherisse, Sean, Amanda, Matt, Ty, Mark, Mala and her friend all showed up later on. It was good times.

Michael had to leave for a family reunion, and Guru left around 3:30 to go to work which sucked. I'm really bad at Frisbee, I attempted to blame the wind but no it was just me sucking ass. Michael nailed me in the back as well with the Frisbee. If the Olympics had Frisbee I would make Michael try-out. He threw that thing hard. He put the fear of god in me. I flinched every time a Frisbee was in my general direction after that. We had a small water fight, ate too much food and layed in the sun. There was this guy laying in the middle of the field. Looked like a student on a break or something. Had his earphones on and was all by himself. I don't remember who suggested it but AJ and I bothed snuck up and layed on either side of him. He opens his eyes and looks at us, not bothered at all..He's like "Hi?" We were laughing and wandered back to our group, he says...uh thanks.

Afterwards Guru left work early and joined us again. It was Sean,Amanda,Jim,Sabby,Raynna,Myself, Cherisse and Guru we all decided to go to Jim's place for a few drinks. It was about 7pm. 6hrs in the sun awesome. We put in movie's and everyone was drinking and talking so much, I didn't actually see any of the movie's. Michael and AJ joined us around 9-10pm. I was buzzed and having a great time.

Sabrina had some issues and I actually ended up crying because I felt bad for her situation. Booze, a lot of sun, and friends being upset are the key to me losing it. I would NEVER cry for myself just others. I think that means I'm a busy body, or too involved with my friends lives. She ended up consoling me! Which made me feel like a bag of shit. We had a long talk in the bathroom away from everyone. I'm so proud of her. We both decided that we're not doing anything without the others consent. So far my friends have all given me the same advise or had the same opinions about certain people I've been with or am seeing. I've never listened. I always made excuses that he's different when it's just "us" routine, that sorta shit. Why wouldn't my friends know what's best, they know me best. So yah Sabrina is deciding my life now. Done and Done, phew what a load off hehe.

Rene was leaving and I'm like Raynna...Go say goodbye to Rene. (as Raynna had been sitting on his lap all night talking) Cherisse was at the door talking to him. I'm like Cherisse come here a sec...She's like just a minute I'm saying goodbye to Rene..I'm like Cherisse it's really important. So she comes over. I turn to Raynna and tell her go say goodbye now. She wanders away. Cherisse is like what? I'm like nothing they wanted to talk. Cherisse peaks her head around the corner and was like..."They're making out"...a minute goes by..Cherisse is like they're still making out...Ok there done. Goes back to talk to Rene. 16yr olds have no tact it's awesome.

Later I was in the bedroom talking to Miguel at the time. I missed some drama in the living room. Someone had said something to Raynna and she was leaving. I don't recall saying good-bye to her but I'm sure I did. I have a full drink and perfectly content sitting beside Michael and Sabby. Chris is like alright I'm out. I had assumed he was crashing at Jims place. Apparently his house is empty or something and he wanted to go home. He lives way in the north. I was debating for a minute if I should go with him or not. I had decided I was going to stay because I was teetering. Sabby turns to me and says sternly "Amanda go home with guru". I'm like but my drink.. She says "leave it". I'm like okay, just remembering the new deal we had struck about deciding for each other. So I grab all my shit (forgetting my cell phone) and say goodbye to Jim. Whom was in the room with AJ. Myself being retarded opened the door, my eyes squeezed shut and yell "STOP DOING IT" or something along those lines as my goodbye and I'm off.

We get to Chris's house. So pretty. He has a really nice place. He made me grill cheese and I talked non stop because that's what I do. Jim was PISSED off. Chris gets a text msg from Jim saying tell Amanda grow up and never do that again or something along those lines. If you can sound angry in a text msg I'm so glad I wasn't near him. I felt really guilty. I called today and apologized. Lesson learned no more interrupting people doin it. Although if you're having a house party and you know the person is spending the night there, why not wait till people are gone. Was my side of it. Or ask everyone to leave if you want to be alone. I would totally do it at someone else's party but not hosting. (just my thoughts Jim don't get mad again)

So in the morning we watched Man on the moon. Was actually a good movie. I like veging watching movies, was good times. Chris dropped me off back at Jims around 3pm cause he had to work. I got my cell, apologized again to Jim and now I'm home. I'm getting the this isn't a hotel you know. You don't just shower and change clothes then go off again. I'm 24 piss off. I pay rent. I do totally agree with them I have to spend less money though. I did move back to save and I'm getting caught up in having good times aspect of life. Seriously though if I'm never home isn't it less of an inconvenience having me here.

Tana is on her way over. I cleaned all the shit I needed to. We're going to watch movies, again what a great weekend.

Ps. Thank-you T for that contact case thing. I've used it SO much the last week. No putting my contacts in shot glasses of water, or hairspray lids (not smart I'm aware) or sleeping with them in etc.

The bathroom molestation

Heres the pic's I promised....

Sabrina, Raynna & me at the start of the night.

D, Sabby, Raynna, & Andrea

Jess, Sabrina & Andrea

Raynna, Me, Back of Andrea's head, Back of Jess' head, Sabrina & some chick jealous she's missing out.

So today I went for breakfast with Chris, Michael & Jim then we went to this cool video store behind Jim's place. It has some wicked movies I will have to check out. I left my car parked at work AGAIN, so Chris drove me back to it before he had to go to work. (What a sweet) Then we headed to the mall to get AJ from work, to go shopping. Jim got $500 from his mom to buy shit for his apartment. It's SO much fun spending other peoples money. We went to Ikea. Got some cute paper hanging lamp things and small plants. The place was actually pretty empty I was expecting a zoo. I only had to use my cell once because I lost the others, very impressive. It's almost too big, I don't think we hit half of it. The best part, they have hot dogs for fuckin 50cents!! I'm going to have to eat there more often..It's close and super cheap.

Whenever Jim and I go to buy him shit we have horse shoes up our asses. When we bought his bed, the brick was having a huge sale. Ikea today was up to 50% off a lot of their shit and we had no idea. Afterwards we went to Wal-mart, again not that bad. We picked out towels, shower curtain, bathroom set, entertainment centre, tea towels, the works. AJ and I were practically skipping around in our excitement. We attempted to make it look like Jim had a choice for the first 10 mins, then stopped wasting our energy. I felt mild guilt as we shoved Michael and him out of the way while deciding things, not enough to care..But mild. He caved and let AJ get a fish too...She's just "keeping" it at his place. We wanted to buy large plants but with an 8 foot entertainment unit and bags and bags of shit, we thought it best one of us not have to take the bus back to Jim's.

When back at his place, AJ and I went to clean the bathroom and set it up. Michael and Jim spent almost 3!! Hrs setting up the entertainment stand. I'm sure it was hard, it looked like a bitch. I would still like to take it apart and challenge them time wise if I wasn't damn lazy.


Notice how hard Jim is working...

We ordered Chinese food, which I regret eating. I was full and sleepy. I barely stayed awake the drive home. The only reason I'm still up, is because I had to rescue a GINORMOUS spider. Which I took a pic of...Because I'm camera phone crazy now.

I normally use my hands because I actually like spiders (yes I'm a freak) but this guy was like Harry and had red on him. I try not to touch anything that has red...red means bad. Unfortunately I wasn't aware he was hopped up on speed, or acid or whatever drug makes you insanely fast. When I placed the cup over him, I forgot the part where you need something to slide under it. I decided to use my hand anyway. I have never had a spider run so fuckin fast. He flew around that cup like he had fuckin humming bird wings. Nasty.

Then I went upstairs to put him outside. It's 1am I open the door, the motion light goes on and I throw him out of the cup...I then realize the neighbor's are having a fire next door and I'm only wearing a shirt..And no panties...And the shirt wasn't a very long one. YAY for ass cheeks. To think I still have all Sunday AND Monday and I've managed to expose myself a lot already...I'm going to sleep not that my spider/mild nudity adrenaline has warn off.

I love cinnamon

Thursday night after work I went to Manhattans for the "star wars" party. Jim wasn't feeling well so bailed on work early, and didn't come with us. Sabrina, myself, and Raynna went. I didn't have any money, and planned on not drinking at all. Raynna loaned me $20 because she's a bad influence. I blame her for the events that occurred. We get there and do 3 Jag-bombs each. I could tell immedietly it was going to be one of THOSE nights.

The club was empty when we arrived. I think they all waited for us to arrive. Within 30mins it was full. Andrea Potter showed up we had a few shots with her. Within an hour, Jess, Tyler, Chris, Rene & Guru arrived. I was already pretty buzzed so it was all down hill from there. Sabrina and I for the first time were on the same drunken level. I don't recall talking with any single person for more then 5 mins. I'd wander away mid sentence. Raynna and I went upstairs to see her hot bartender. I ended up giving my # to some black guy while waiting to talk to Eliot. I didn't even give him a fake one, I was that loaded.

Later on in the evening, someone decided to give someone a hickey. I'm not sure who started it but soon I had 5 people sucking on my neck. Poor Tyler even got one. D & Sabrina got me good. I was twirling around the bar trying to pry Sabby off of me, screaming. She has an inhuman grip. Guru brought a Darth vader cut out. The girls decided to drag him into the bathroom and violate him. Poor Darth didn't stand a chance. I took photo's which i'll post when I get home. When leaving the bathroom, I'm not sure how it happened but I was kissing the bouncer. Who was sober....blah. He's not even attractive. I don't think I started that one. I remember saying he tasted like cinnamon gum.

Guru and I headed to Jim's place. I was too too drunk. I should know my tolerance level better. I ate some M&M's, sent gibberish text messages and passed out. It was a good night. I woke up in my panties on the hideabed. My neck hurt and my liver was pissed...I needed McDonalds. I feel Jim and I have reached a new level of comfort. Or i've reached a new level of not caring. My panties were lace and somewhat see through and I didn't give a damn. I should maybe learn how to wear pants in people's houses. I'll work on that.

Last night Chris came and picked me up after work. It was the longest day ever. I had TWO fast food meals and still felt like ass. If grease doesn't fix it you know you over did it. The plan was to watch movies and veg. We ended up watching like 2hrs of cartoons waiting for Jim to get back from Star Wars. Chris couldn't get the dvd player to work. I didn't even bother to try. Inanimate objects out smarting me causes me frustration. When Jim got home him and AJ crashed and we watched Magnolia. I made it about half way till I was too tired to continue. I'm apparently done because Jim and Michael are complaining that I'm taking too long. Off to the mall....

PS. The bouncer scenario I have "no memory of". That's my story and I'm sticking to it

I'm bagged

I could NOT sleep last night. I was up writing it all out, which usually I'm out cold quickly. Then I read. It was about 4am when I finally passed out. Then I get woken by my phone. Mom is calling to wake me up (from upstairs that's right). Its 9:30am. I was awake, then I blinked. I hear are you up!!? It's been 20 mins. I throw the covers up and dive for the lights. Yelling I'm almost ready. She walks into the room and I'm practically sliding down the wall. You know when you get up to fast. I had an insane head rush. Attempting to form sentences like I've been awake for the last 20 mins. I was SO exhausted. I was like a walking zombie.

We get to the gym, I did NOT want to be there today. I did my 30 mins of cardio. Usually I'm wide awake after a work out. It didn't happen today. I barely made it through free weights. I felt even more drained. I've since had a shower and I feel alright. I doubt I'll be able to make my day without massive amounts of caffeine and sugar. That's two day's now where I've been struggling to make it through my shift. Doesn't help there are still like 200 more Royal bank accounts to finish the project Jim and I are doing. I'll work hard today on it so that we can slack on Friday.

Yesterday was DRAMA. Holy shit. Co-workers were pulled into the office to discuss the "incident" I'll refer to it as. I'm hoping it doesn't spread onto the monitoring side of the office. It's gossip central out there. It could make work uncomfortable, till the next big gossip anyhow. I also had a little tiff with Michael. We seem to argue over the same things. I was debating if I should be less direct with people. I had to look him in the face and tell him how I felt. That's how I am, and am thinking maybe I do need a filter. People don't like to hear what you think all the time. If you sugar coat it, or keep some of it to yourself maybe it would make things easier.

This was because he sent me a text msg. I didn't respond. So he came back to data to talk about it. I'm like I received it. I felt you where whining and didn't want to deal with your insecurities right then. We can talk about it later. I felt immediate guilt. I suck. I apologized for snapping afterwards, but I could of just said I received it and we can discuss it later. Or said I didn't receive it. I'm going to work on it. Less direct. Honesty may not always be the best route. Or maybe just rephrasing is the key. Were cool now though which is awesome.

I'm so blah today. I hope it's just because I'm tired. I think Manhattan's tonight should be fun. I cant drink at all because I have 2$!! to my name till tomorrow. It should be fun regardless. It's beautiful outside. I'm going to have a coffee on the deck before work. That should cheer me up...Here's to a fabulous day. I'll MAKE It so.

T showed me as well how to have a counter & I switched it so anyone can make comments as well. She also gave me the power to post on her blog. I'm not sure she thought that one through. I could have fun with that.

Sweet ass sweet I love meat

I did this quiz thing on someone elses blog. It says to copy and paste it so others could do the quiz but nooooo. So I just pasted my answer and Who i'm most comapatible with. I would like to know if others feel this describes me

You are a drumstick.Absolutely insane. That is how most would describe you. You aren't afraid to take risks, and enjoy putting yourself in strange situations. Most people hang out with you because of your hilarious sense of humour. You light up any bad situation, and can help all of your friends with their problems, except for your own. Because of this, you enjoy being around people like you. Many shut you out for your very weird, random personality, but honestly, you shouldn't care.Most compatible with: Guitar, and another drumstick.

This is the decription for a guitar. Considering most of the people I hang out with are obsessed with music. I feel I have made wise choices in my friends.

You are a guitar.You are a musical genius... congratulations. Most people think you are a little obsessed with music, but that's okay. You don't care what other people think. You are independent, and would rather have a few good (and weird) friends than a lot of not-so-good ones. You may feel that people run down your eccentricity, but that's only because they're jealous. You will most likely become very successful with your musical talent. \m/ Rock on!Most compatible with: Drumstick.

Blind leading the dumb

What is with women at the gym not asking how to use machines. I've never seen so many idiots in a small space. Not that I claim to be an expert but most of it is common sense. I've been going for a long time now, and it kills me to see some of these women using the machines totally ass-backwards. The other day I saw two younger oriental girls. One was "training" the other. She was using free weights but was flailing and making the other one use her as an example. It took everything in me not to stomp over there and yell. They're causing more harm then good.

I saw two woman trying to figure out the oblique machine. They were sitting on it facing the wrong way, with there feet hooked into the place where they were supposed to be sitting. I was laughing so hard. One was saying to other...I can really feel this, as she's twisting using her knees to work it rather then her arms. There are pictures of people using the machine ON the machine. It seems every generation is losing more and more common sense. There are 5! Trainers walking around. As well as at least 15 regulars around at any given moment, what's so hard in asking.

The best was still, seeing a very large woman using the machines while talking on her cell. So she was in the chest press, using one arm. Then rather then change arms she just moved onto the next machine and proceeded to use the same arm. Why bother coming. Does it really make you feel better about yourself saying "I went to the gym" when you did nothing while there. I'm done ranting.

It had better be nice this weekend, I'm really looking forward to our picnic outing on Sunday. As well, I get next Monday off...Awesome. I should get ready for work I'm running late as usual.

PS. I love tuna (I say this because I'm eating a tuna sandwich right now, not because I randomly say I love food items..Although, I might start)

Hard weekend

So Thursday night shortly after I posted actually. I was just going to sleep and Michael sends me a text msg asking if I'm awake. We talked for a bit about Chris and how my date went etc. So then I send him a text msg saying word for word you can say I had a good time, you can't however mention that I want to date other people, because I want to tell him myself, however you can pump him for his thoughts on me..But can say nothing else. Then I get a msg from Chris asking...Who? I'm like why is Chris sending me a text at like 3:30am? I look at who I sent the msg to. I had actually sent the msg to Chris not Michael. Woops. I'm so dumb sometimes it amazes me. Jim and others harassed me about my stupidity all Friday at work.

So Friday after work we went to Soda. I had a good time actually. I promised Michael there would be no running back and forth to Manhattans. It was going to be a calm night. Tana, AJ, Michael, Jim, Ben, Elvia, Sabrina & myself all went. Raynna left because she was grumpy and only came for a deliciousness, which would take awhile because it was so fuckin busy. Tana left around midnight too. She was just in a bitchy mood and didn't want to be there I guess. At like 1am AJ asks me "want to go to Manhattan's and do some shots?" I'm like I can't I told Michael I would stay at Soda, because he got so mad at me last weekend. I turn to Michael and ask him..Is it alright if AJ and I run to Manhattans real quick for a round of shots. Michael looks at me and sheepishly says...I've already been there tonight. I was sooo mad. He admitted he wasn't actually going to tell me. I was pissed. That's the last time I'm catering to anyone I've decided. I'm doing what I want, when I want.

I talked to Chris when I got there too, if you could call it a talk. I said as soon as I saw him, are you mad? I'm so dumb. I wanted to talk to you about dating others. He laughed and said he thought it was hilarious. I think AJ and Jim did the talking for me before I got there anyhow. (note to self, double check who you're sending text msg's too) I ended up crashing at Jim's place. Chris came over after they closed the club. I was exhausted, I attempted to watch a movie but fell asleep. We ended up sleeping on Jims RETARDEDLY small bed. It was ridiculous. AND stupid Caroline got me sick. Chris ended up leaving at like 6am or something because he couldn't sleep and had to work. I have no idea how Jim could have slept on that thing for so long. I think it's smaller then a single. We joked that It should have railing on the sides. No he didn't score for all those who are going to ask me anyhow.

Saturday Jim was supposed to help Edmonton Amanda move in. However there was a problem with the truck rental or something so he came over to my place instead. We had a rough day. We layed in the sun from 1pm till about 8pm drinking Margarita's. Sending text msg's to everyone who was at work, about how hot it was and how good the Margarita's were. "Oh no I think I'm burning..Time for a run through the sprinkler". Shit like that. I got a few, I hate you's, I'm going to kill you, and 1 you cunt from AJ. The tragedy of the day.

The horror......The horror.......

Best invention ever...Bendy straws.

We went to Moxies to eat, I was loaded. We watched a movie afterwards with Michael and AJ when they got off work. Shittiest Shit movie EVER. Mindhunters. Was so Cheesy..Best line "I guess we found out what his weakness is...Bullets." I went home afterwards because I felt like ass. Stupid Caroline. "I'm a hero because I didn't call in sick blah blah" , however she made 6 others in the office ill who DON'T get paid sick days...Cow. She's lucky I like her or there would get an additional paragraph.

My Sunday was much the same as Saturday take note...

My Sunday

I'm going to go eat bbq steak and potatoes now. My life is so hard sometimes...

Here's random Photo's from my phone that I didn't want to delete without sharing.

My girls, Sabrina & Raynna at work.

Last weekend in my car Jim & Raynna with my tanning glasses, they look like characters off the matrix.

Last weekend, Saturday outside Sambuca, before the after party at Seans place.

Can't think of a title

So my date with Chris went pretty well actually. I had a good time. We went to vicious circle. It's really cute, reminds me of Soda with all the couches and funky art work. They had a bitchin martini menu. He's adorable. I lost the paying for myself though, he glared me into submission. I'll just pay for his tab tomorrow or something when he's not around. I hope he's cool with me dating other people. I'm not into a relationship at all. I said I'd stay single for a year, and I meant it. I'm blunt so I'll just let him know what I want and don't want. I hope he's fine with it because I enjoyed his company.

I learned tonight Rolling Stones are coming to town. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, I'm going to attempt to buy some. Those things always sell out in minutes though. You fuckin bet your ass I'm going to try however. Maybe I can do what Caroline at work did with U2 and buy some the day before the concert, they sometimes release more.

I'm to tired to write more. Night!

I'm a thin yet?

Holy fuck I'm in pain. This 4 days a week at the gym sucks ass. It takes like 3 days for my muscles to recover. So at any given time at least 2 sections of my body are stiff. I stretch, I do small reps just to tone. Still I feel like someone boot fucked me when I wake up. This is my day off. I even threatened my mother. I'm like if you wake me up in the morning I'll keeeel you. So she let me sleep in. It's 11:30 and I'm just getting out of bed this rulez!

Another non drinking weekend is coming up. I'm not even going to Velocity on Thursday, go me. Unfortunately I've been putting off picking up the rest of my things from Tim's. He however has stopped asking me out to movies and dinner. Is it too much to hope he found someone? Or actually given up and realized I'm not going to come back? That would kick ass. So I have to do that sometime this weekend. Also I plan on going bike riding if it's not shitty out.

I went to Michaels last night to watch the finale of Amazing race. It was too intense for me. I was begging Michael to just fast forward so I could see who won. Amber and Rob did not win. I was so bitter. Least that cunt of a beauty queen didn't win. If I could choose a power, it would be the ability to reach through TV's and smack or strangle people...That would rule. I thought I was a bitch, that chick took bitch to a whole new level.

I have a date this evening. Technically I don't think I've ever been on a real date. Like where someone asks you ahead of time, picks you up, and takes you somewhere. I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with someone paying for me. I hope I get to pay for myself. Too many angry feminists raised me. I'm fine with friends but that's because it evens out. I feel like I'll owe him or something. I'm actually looking forward to it. I think Jim is more excited than I am, it's cute. That makes getting flowers, and a real date in a month. I apparently was hanging around the wrong males the last 24yrs.

Feelin like a bag of smashed assholes

My weekend can be described with one work...Ouch.

Friday:Went to Soda after work with Raynna,Sabby,Courtney,Cherisse,AJ,Jim,Michael to hang out. I told Michael we would be going back and forth to Manhattans. He was not impressed but I told him this, like Thursday. So we get there, I sit for awhile chat it up, then we go to Manhattans for a round of shots. I danced a bit, hung out with Sean, Amanda, & Susan. I love Susan, she's so awesome. Amanda is wicked too, I'm wicked excited about both of them moving here. Susan is only for the summer but still..YAY. Then we went back to Soda. We sat for an hour I ordered a sandwich. Michael had his first deliciousness experience and was not let down.

So Courtney had to go pick up her brother, so we walked her to her car about 12:30am. On our way back Cherisse wanted to try to get into Bamboo. She's underage and doesn't have ID yet. So we actually just walked in, the guy asked us to kiss his cheek as our toll that was all. Cherisse was so excited it was cute. Was so so packed in there. We ran into Jay, Sabrina's friend. So we stayed for about 10 mins. Went back to Manhattans then I get a text msg from Michael he's leaving. So I run back to Soda to say goodbye to him. He was pissed off. I was like whatever I asked you to come to Manhattans with us. I warned you I wouldn't be staying at Soda all night. AJ and Jim and Guru were there, and he could have walked half a block if he wanted. I didn't like being guilt tripped and feeling like shit for doing what I wanted and having a great time. I'm not one for sitting in one place for too long. I'm WAY to social and get too ansi. Anyhow we said our goodbye's and they went home.

1:50 am Cherisse is like lets go the Night Gallery. I'm like there is NO way you'll get in there they id at the top of the stairs. She proved me wrong. Not only did we get in but they gave us all complimentary shots just to go inside. So we get in there...It's empty the only people there were the bartender and the DJ. I'm like wicked! So the four of us dance for like half an hour and then all these people started showing up after 2am. It's not an after hours place but whatever.

We went back to Manhattans because Cherisse was staying at Seans place. Sean and Amanda had already left for his place. I was like damn, I had no cash for her to take a cab and she was out of money as well. She calls her dad who's on 17th Ave. We decide to walk her there. Raynna, Cherisse and I are harassed endlessly on our walk. It came to the point where EVERY car and EVERY guy would say something on there way by. So we're drunk and start yelling STD's at people. A guy would be like hey whets up, I'd yell CRABS, Cherisse would yell UNDERAGE WITH CHLAMYDIA, and Raynna would yell GONORRHEA. It was hilarious. A lot of them weren't deterred though.

So It's now 3am and Raynna and I walk to her place. On the way I stumbled over the train tracks running across them. You know when you trip you kind of scrape the toe of your shoe. Well I had flip flops on, so my big toe dragged across the cement. The tip of it is missing, or hanging on by very little. Well It didn't hurt too bad till we continued walking. So glad I was drunk or that would have been so so painful. I was bleeding a lot and had to walk without my shoe on for 7 blocks.

We get to Raynna's. I fill up her tub with like 3inches of water and attempt to clean my toe. We geniously don't have any band-aids, and decide wrapping it in toilet paper would be good. So then we crash. I wake up at 6am and my toe hurts so much, the toilet paper of course dried into the cut. Don't let drunk people dress wounds I've learned my lesson. Anyhow It's hurting so bad I need to get the toilet paper off NOW. I look at the tub and the water had drained. Apparently in my intoxicated state, that made the bathtub obsolete as an option. So (keep in mind I'm drunk and in ALOT of pain) I'm looking around and what do I see before me. Cold water, I stuck my foot in and swished my foot around frantically till the toilet paper all came off. That's right I'm not ashamed to admit I stuck my foot in the toilet. It felt awesome too. Then I stumbled back to bed. (I'm so rubbing my foot on you T when I see you, because I know you especially will be grossed out)

Saturday: I didn't feel bad at all. My toe even felt ok too. It looks nasty and causes more whining then usual on my part, but that's about it. I called Jim and Sabrina to go for breakfast. It was 1pm when we went but whatever. We get there and Sabrina never completes her meal. The poor people around us. The conversations we had were disturbing and gross, it was awesome. So then I look at Sabrina and she has a small sausage stuck into her scrambled eggs. I immediately think it looks like a little boys penis (shutup) and ask her to move it. So she puts her half eaten one beside it. Raynna is like it looks like a shocker. Jim is like...It's a MEATY SHOCKER. Fuck did we laugh. (For those that don't know. A shocker would be two in the pink, one in the stink. Thanks to Jims poetic descriptions. If I have to explain pink or stink you need more assistance then I can give.)

The "Meaty Shocker"

I spent the day chillin with Jim. I bought Xena season 6...so exciting. I'm aware I'm a geek, I'm fine with it. We went to Sambuca that night. Was a lot of fun. Angela from work came with her wicked cool friend Ricki. Who ran up and danced on an empty dance floor sober. I instantly liked her. Stacey came as well with her boyfriend, and her brother and his friend. Her brother..Damn. He apologized for being blunt. TO ME.Uh hello... Then later said he could out gross me, which upset me greatly. They only stuck around for an hour or so then went to a bar in the North. I love him now. Stacey is my new best friend.

BTW on a side note I did tequila shots after we finished the goldschlager (spelling?). So I had a shot of each in front of me. Well I put salt on my wrist, did the shot, put the lemon in my mouth. Then realized I grabbed the wrong shot. Salt+Cinnamon+Lemon= A lot of nastiness.

We went to Seans after the bar closed. I pretty much spent my evening with Courtney. Raynna left because no one would share their drugs...Poor thing. That was sarcasm in case that didn't carry over in writing. I stopped drinking and just chatted with everyone. I sobered slightly, not enough to not feel awful today. (title of this blog entry inserted here) We left around 4am. Courtney, Jim and myself got a ride from Guru home. I took off my pants and slept on the hideabed in the living room. I got up to get some water and they moved the coffee table in front of the kitchen. I decided rather then walk around to the other entrance to the kitchen, I'd just step over this large coffee table. Well it's wide and I could not get my other leg over it. My legs were too far apart. Courtney lost it, I thought she was going to pee herself. Then Jim's roommate came out, and I could not help myself. I'm in fuckin Sylvester the cat booty short things, straddling a coffee table. I was laughing so hard, and my legs were sliding further and further apart and I could not get it under control. I was there for a good 10 minutes it was awful. I spent an hour talking to his roommate and text msg Guru. I think we made a date, I'm not sure though. I'll have to ask him. 5am I finally slept.

Sunday: I woke up at 10am. James, Jim's DJ friend from Edmonton was sleeping on the floor beside us. I have NO idea when he came in but he was out cold. I went home and got my mom flowers and a giant bottle of Baileys. I've never seen someone so happy. I come by it honestly. Then I took her to go see Monster in law. It was a suprisingly good movie. It was hilarious. Now Tana is on her way over,I'm going to watch TV and nurse my toe. THE END


Cherisse, Raynna, Sabrina & Courtney. Friday night

Don't Panic

I've had a great morning this morning. I should wake up early more often. It feels like noon and its only 9:30am this rocks. I washed my car and vacuumed it the works, now I'm waiting for mom to finish her coffee so we can go to the gym.

Tana called me last night to see if I wanted to go see Hitchhikers guide...uh yah I want to see it...IDIOT...GOD!! I WAS waiting to see it as a group, but some people are bitches...Cough SEAN cough JIM & AJ screw this cough shit..You guys suck. So now Tana, Raynna Sabrina and myself are seeing it after work today. Cherisse also text msg me this morning saying she missed me and wanted to go for coffee aww, so I'm taking a gym break tomorrow and will chill with her. Tomorrow night is Soda...mmm deliciousness. I haven't been there in a few weeks so should be good times. We plan on having a girls pool night too.

Saturday I have plans to hang out with Slater in the morning. Sabrina & I are hopefully tanning if it's nice in the afternoon while drinking, prepping for Sambuca Saturday night. Jim and Seans night should be great I hope it's so busy I can hardly walk, they deserve to make some cash. Should be a blast I'm looking forward to it. Sunday I told everyone to fuck off because it's mothers day and I will have just gotten paid so have no excuses not to spoil her for once. I love my mom she fuckin deserves some spoiling.

On a different note I'm late...As in LATE. I'm mildly panicked. I've tried all the tricks. I went to sleep in my favorite panties, no luck. I slept naked on white sheets..No luck. Geez. What I wouldn't give to wake up looking like Carrie. I would run through the neighborhood naked and hugging people, till arrested anyhow, or rushed to the emergency room one of the two. Anyways mom is done her coffee I'm going to go sweat my bag off...mmm bag sweat.

SUCKED!

Today sucked ass. I spent the entire morning waiting to do shit I didn't want to do in the first place. My nurse thought I was a freak and treated me rightly so. She's all now take a deep breath and turn your head. I asked her If I could watch. I like needles, it's fascinating to see how fast your blood goes into the little vacuum tube thing. Don't tell nurses that because they give you a look like you're a sociopath and kill animals in your spare time or something. She was horrified. Next time I'm gonna ask to do it myself to see the reaction I get geez.

Next was a urine sample. Like that's not the hardest thing on earth to do. They ask can you get a "mid stream" sample. Fuck off, you're lucky if I don't pee all over the outside of the container and the label stays on, never mind control it enough to pause mid way. I'm gonna ask (hopefully the same nurse) next time for a fuckin funnel. She might throw holy water at me or something.

Then I wait in line for my chest x-rays. I pull out my fuckin paper napkin they call a gown and attempt to put it on. Yah she says as my white napkin "tie" flutters to the ground..They mass produce them..Not all of them have a tie. Yah thanks lady. I'm glad they have to wear brightly colored animal track suits with nasty old lady runners, that's what you get bitch. So then I have to sit and wait with my "napkin" on, with the door/curtain that the magnet doesn't work on in my sheet of paper and my ass hanging out, and have 3 men leer at me for 20 mins waiting. It took 30 seconds for the actual x-ray, then she says don't get dressed in case they don't turn out. So again 2 leering men for another 20 mins. Least I was down one nasty ogling man..If I had waited another 40 mins I might have been lucky enough to be alone. Seriously I don't think I could have been more uncomfortable unless someone had their finger up my ass while I sat there...really.

Work at least went fast. Michael provided me with entertainment at his house afterwards with amazing race. Finally that old couple came in last. Jeez. It was like both their brains fell out. I don't know if they aren't aware that they're 70, but they always chose the hard fuckin tasks. Its like...Hey you have a choice between two tasks..Roll around in pillows for 10 mins, or smash rocks with an axe for an hour..They'd be like hey honey lets smash rocks it will be faster.

Yes I am PMS'ing..No its not obvious so shutup. I apologize to Jim for being a bitch to him today. I'm a cunt sometimes everyone knows it. *shrug*

owwww

I am so exhausted I can hardly keep my eyes open. I stayed up way way to late last night, or rather this morning. Ironic I was all prepared to go to sleep early like at midnight. When I mistakenly went onto the internet...I should know better. I ended up talking to Sean for awhile. Then I'm like k it's 2am I should go to sleep. Then Jess & Scott log on. Why you people aren't in bed at like 2am, and damn you for being entertaining. Especially damn T for adding links to other blogs on her blog, and Jess giving me her blog addy. So then it was like 330 when I finally passed out. My mom woke me up at 930 she actually calls my cell phone because its right beside my bed. Really I'm paying for my moms personal intercom from upstairs its blows.

Then my morning really started to suck, when I roll over and realize someone has been bludgeoning me in my sleep with a mallet. Or at least that's what it feels like. 4 days a week at the gym doing weights in addition to cardio is kicking my ass. My back, arms, legs and ass hurt today. My arms I did on frickin Saturday that was ages ago..Heal already. I'm walking like an 80yr old man and healing as fast as one. I did dead lifts yesterday with TINY weights because I knew it does my back. Holy moly 8 hours of sitting with my back feeling like I lifted 1000's of lbs is gonna suck balls. K I'm done complaining.

HAHA! Suckers I'm not done. I also have to go to the doctors today for my yearly. BLAH I have to do chest x-rays, blood work, urine the works. Least I get a day off from the gym. I'm actually drinking coffee. You know I'm in rough shape when voluntarily drinking coffee that's not from Starbucks which is really not coffee it's a desert.

I'm super excited for June. Why isn't it June for fuck sakes. May is taking forever! Chick from work let me know there was another room available for the Sylvan trip. So Sabrina and Raynna took it. Then I'm like..uh how are you guys gonna get there because there's 6 of us now and only my car. So we thought who has a car.... I'm staring across the office while pondering the dilemma. Sabby is like well Jesse has a car. Fuck that. I'd stab out both my eyes or chew off my own face before I spend a weekend with that kid, let alone let him see me in a bathing suit. Then I see Courtney. Who was so much fuckin fun last Thursday. So we invite her to come. You would think we're using her for her car, but I genuinely want her to come. So now its the 7 of us, bitchin. I'm gonna get dressed before Tana gets here and kicks my ass for being in my beloved jammies. "Your not even dressed, and you drank all the coffee" was just yelled as I hit the period on that last sentence. Oops too late.

My goal is nothing.

My weekend has been very uneventful. Very nice for a change. Yesterday however I was dying of boredom! I woke up about 10am went to the gym. Went tanning. Wrote in my journal had a wicked morning actually. Tana was off work at 1:30pm and was gonna come over to watch movies. However 3pm and I'm still waiting and getting bored. I call her she's not home...I call Riley's cell, what do you know she forgot.

I was very pissed off because I had just listened to her cry to me Friday because she doesn't want to go out drinking and doesn't know any of my friends. I understand her point of view because to her, I don't spend time with her and she's jealous of me spending so much time with AJ. However from my stand point, I've made numerous attempts to spend time with her and she flakes out. So when she FORGOT she made plans when I JUST saw her Friday night, I was upset but not too too bad. However when she says to me...Well AJ is off at 5pm maybe she'd like to do something...Instant rage.

Anyhow I'm over it now. I did end up going over to Jim's to watch movies with him and AJ in his new bed. Was so so comfortable. I bought like 7 DVD's too. I know, I know but they were having a sale...And I had my credit card...I blame Jim. We made a wicked dinner too. Today I woke up and didn't feel like doing ANYTHING. I bailed on going to a movie with the crew. In fact it's my goal for the day, to do nothing. I sat in front of my computer for a few hours. Then read my book. Which BTW hitch hikers guide is so fucked up. I keep reading it assuming its going to go somewhere. There is no somewhere, it's like someone's brain exploded and the gibberish formed a book. I'm not sure if it's awesome or the worst book ever. Carrying on with my busy day, then watched TV & painted my nails. I'm still in my jammies and it's 7pm...That's right bitch I'm disgusting, it's awesome.

I just read my horoscope too..So ironic
Your horoscope for May 1, 2005 Libra: Take care of all the personal things that make you look and feel your best: a manicure, pedicure or just relaxing with a good book. Youngsters may give you something to think about. An insightful comment may change things. 5 stars means a great day. ....

Anyone know anyone young with something insightful to say? Otherwise I'd say she needs to give me lotto #'s. Anyways I have a TV to lay comatosed in front of.
