Sorry I've taken so long between posts. It's been a shit show. My grandma moved here from Vancouver. She's not doing so well. Her room was not ready that she was to move into. So they stuck her on the 4th floor for a week. Then we had to move her stuff again to the main floor when it was available. She was all stressed from the plane ride, and moving twice. Also living in a different province for your first time in 77 yrs is a little frightening im sure. She fell the first day she got here and I think she scared herself. She stopped being about to move about on her own. I think from the stress of it all, she got really sick. So she was sent to the hospital and has been there all week. I'm not sure when they will let her out. She's alot weaker and is not able to get herself even to the washroom on her own. The home we had her in was somewhat independant, we were just hiring people to come in twice a day to help her out. I don't know where she's going to go unless she gets a little better. She has no Alberta health care yet for another few months. So alot of places charge out the ass till she's been here a year. Were talking $7000 a month for a place that will provide what she needs. My mom is freaking out. It's a huge life change. I knew it was going to change things but not drastically like it has. I can't even talk to mom at all, anytime I mention anything she turns it back to grandma and how lucky I am I'm not her. I could ask her to pass the salt and she's yelling at me or talking for 30 mins about what grandma needs, or what needs to be done. It's really depressing honestly. Anyways I'm out of time I going to try to go the gym for a minute before visiting grams.

I had 2 grand in my bank account this Friday it was awesome. I paid off my Visa for the first time in 1.5yrs. I was so excited. Then god saw how happy I was and threw an ass in my way. This is my $380 piece of ass. My cat now has been re-named Scooterstein! Rooooooooaaaaaar. He has to take 4 pills a day and I get to pour peroxide on him every morning. That is a face of someone who is so fuckin impressed let me tell yah. Anytime anyone approaches him he runs cause someone is pinning him and either poking his wound, rotating his tube, or shoving objects down his throat, and he's no longer allowed to leave the house. Wait...I just described prison.

So I had a great weekend chillin with my new computer powerbar. We watched DVD's played video games, shopped all in all it was good times totally worth the $2000. I'm going to call them tomorrow just in case they cancelled my order for my computer again because someone sneezed in the bathroom in Banff or for some other random inane reason. In other news, I'm glad I don't have to title my blogs until I figure out how to add titles that saves my brain from thinking some. So today was the first day in the new building work moved to. Most of you know this seeing as how I work with almost everyone I'm friends with. How sad. Do you remember a time where you had lots of friends outside of work and then you also had work friends. When did they fuse into one set of friends. Not that you guys aren't great and all. I just like two individual groups, not this amalgamation of a single clique. I need a new group of outside work friends. Where do you meet people is there some sort of sign up sheet to join a group or is it like the old days where you can just walk up to someone your age and say...Hi want to be friends, or want to play with me and when did that stop working?

Right the new building. It's pretty, It's clean and bright, and has the most kick ass view I've ever witnessed of the city. See Kristy's blog for a pic from the entire floors windows. You can see the entire river too, it's bitchin. The downside is they say you can't eat at your desk anymore. That's such horse shit. I like to munch. I was actually told to put cinnamon hearts away because I had a few on my desk. Really? Cinnamon hearts? I thought the point of this no eating/drinking is to save the new equipment from being damaged. Apparently Cinnamon hearts could be lethal to a computer. I mean what if it fell on the keyboard and you then smashed it into little pieces so that it got under the keys....wooo the danger. If they take gum away I'm going to freak out. I'll show them by chewing up wads and wads and sticking it everywhere just so they will have their apparent worst fears realized. If they don't watch it, I might grind up bags and bags of cinnamon hearts into a fine powder and sprinkle every keyboard and monitor in the building..OH THE HUMANITY. Fuck off we're all adults try treating us as such. Did I mention the view is nice.
