Merry Christmas!

A week has passed since my last update. Let's just say its been a crazy stressful work week full of retarded shifts. I'm still sick with a hacking bronchitis-like cough and I'm super exhausted. I was so sick on tuesday that Vanessa had actually sent me home from work. Instead of sleep (like I should have) I chose to drive to Moncton to pick up Mr. Travis and Gort. Since I'm feeling rather lazy and tired, I'll point form the key events of the week that I can recall from my terrible terrible memory.

- rockin out to tunes in my car and busting my speakers
- too many yeti sessions
- lots of late nights and no sleep
- bitchy vs. super friendly christmas shoppers
- customer bitched about me to laura because I wouldn't let her butt in line
- RAISE!
- Trav time
- shower for two
- free Tim Hortons: "Uhhh Shouuuuuld....I?"
- double shifting floorset horror
- ummm...how many floorsets did I work on this week? THREE???
- I love trees and you know it.
- lots of the 3 letter word we all know and love.
- sleepovers all week (why are you so damn comfortable!?)
- stressful times and breakdowns.
- christmas shopping
- laura-gill much needed basement bonding over yetis
- dragging the drunkard to my house (thanks for the help chris reid)

Now, its officially Christmas. It's almost 1am. I arrived home several hours ago. Bored already. Oh kingston. How am I going to make it through tomorrow without smoking any substances of any sorts? Dress-up Tequilla party is drawing near! I tried to go dress shopping after my shift at AE the other day, but the dresses I liked at Le Chateau looked horrid on me. So....now it looks like I'm hosting a dress-up party for Laura's birthday, but I don't even have any dress-up clothes to wear! Why do I always look horrible in dresses?

The work week from hell.

Why is it that every Christmas I get incredibly ill? I could feel my illness creeping over me yesterday during my entire 9 hour shift at American Eagle. It was terrible. After work at 10 I went over to Forest Hills where I drank some beer, smoked some yetis and chilled out with the crew. Farva was the record holder drunk of the night. Grace and Bird showed up and we (Grace, Bird, Miray, Laura, Flynn and I) went to the Dip at 2am for food. When I woke up this morning I was incredibly haggered. I'm still really tired, I feel weak. My body aches. My throat is swollen and sore. I am coughing up phlegm again. In fact I feel exactly like I did when I got sick at the beginning of the summer with that cough that wouldn't go away. Blah. Hope I don't get that again...

The worst part of my day, is not only the fact that I'm sick but I have to go to work on a mini-floorset tonight. Kill me please. I don't think my body can handle all that physical activity.

I still haven't done any christmas shopping. I can't believe I've left it so long. I'M IN THE MALL ALMOST EVERYDAY AT WORK. You'd think I would have done my Christmas shopping long ago. Apparently I'm incredibly lazy. On the plus side, I've pretty much figured out what I'm going to get everyone, although some presents are going to be harder to put together than others. I wish I had more money.

I heart Chris Reid and this picture.


Last night was an absolute shit show. I was wrecked. But it was all in good fun and to randomly celebrate finishing my last (only) exam!! I had thought I had only drank 7 beer last night and wondered how I got so drunk-- only to remember later that Chantal had been feeding you shots of malibu rum. Regardless, last night was a fucked up night. To sum it up: yetis, beer, malibu rum, drama?, puking, tears, getting kicked out of nicky zees twice....and the list goes on. I passed out in the blue recliner at the boys house and woke up the next morning at noon, still partially drunk. It's been a great week off, and tomorrow marks the first day of my work week from hell.

Thank god for my weekend off.

The year 2006.

I have done this the past couple years on my blog, so this year has to be the same.

2006: Year End Review.

January: Started out great. New boy. Great New Years Eve Party. Turned out so awful. Lost the boy. Camera broke. I believed someone had cursed the year 2006 on me and I was already looking forward to 2007. We went to the Bushmans Ball (Forestry Formal) where we drank lots of alcohol (of course) in pretty dresses. Meghan almost killed Sheehan with ranch dressing. To top off my stellar month, my laptop broke and I had to reformat and lost all my photos. Arthritis flare-up involving me getting stuck on the couch in pain.

February: My laptop breaks yet again. Frustration sets in for the year 2006. GRRR! A unnamed stranger left an envelope containing a handwritten letter and 40 dollars in my mailbox addressed to me. It was an anonymous good deed so I could buy my starving self some groceries! Kitchen street reunion party involving a very drunk appearance from Gill. I spent my student loan on a new laptop (my ibook!).

March: I went home to Kingston on the mark break and got really sick. School starts taking over my life. Decide I am going to save money and move home for the summer and transfer to the AE in Saint John. Being the indecisive person I am, at the end of the month I decide to find roommates so I can stay at 672 graham paying only 160/mth each. I also develop a really evil sickness again which hinders end of semester studying/paper writing

April: One of my roommates left a special puke surprise outside our front door. My car window was smashed with a beer bottle. Good times in the Ghetto. Pat fucks me over for my summer roommate situation. By this point in time, I'm about ready to give up on the year 2006... Claire and Becca move in at the end of the month, Jess leaves for Germany and the rest of the school roommates move home (cept Sheehan).

May: My camera, that had been broken for months miraculously (and mysteriously) starts to work! We find creepy Italian Mario as a roommate who keeps condoms in the fridge, dances around and conducts music and sat around in suits and black dress shoes all day, all the while scheming on his cell phone in the middle of the night and mysteriously disappearing. Secret Agent? Possibly… Before I could be the detective that I am, he mysteriously left one day without any notice. I met Trevor and we started dating. I also got egged and started developing my nasty bronchitis-like cough that ended up lasting the entire summer.

June: I started working part-time at Kellys CafĂ© on the side of AE. They also didn’t work around my schedule so I quit 3 weeks later. Kelly was super scary and banned me from the story for no reason at all. Kinnon moved in with us and I befriended the neighbours at Dolans.

July: Lots of crazy shit happened here. My life felt like a terrible too-much-drama soap opera. Parties parties everywhere. Random adventures downtown in the rain. Pool parties in the middle of the night. You honk we drink. My huge birthday turn out. Started hanging out with some of the best friends I’ve ever had. Trevor and I broke up. Random hookups and standups. Flipflop breakage on the way to dolans and missing rad cap on an attempt to the beach.

August: Nonstop drinking 4 days a week. Great White Night: I started hooking up with Travis. Boatjob. Graham Ave Bender Ender. Basically the end to the best summer of my life. Car remains broken after getting another radiator cap and refuses to come to life. Got the job as a TA for my Research methods in cell biology lab (aka Lisa Lab)

September: Moved downtown with Agni and Forough onto 721 George street. Excellent market/downtown location. Started school with a super hectic courseload, while maintaining 3 jobs: AE, TA, Dishwashing. Super stressful days and nights. Mental breakdowns. Officially started dating Trav on my moncton trip. Kristy and I had our many porch smoke bond sessions.

October: A pretty solid month of drinking and Travis on the weekends. Halloween as a scandalous black cat. Lots of Forest Hills (and Fermwood drive). Yetis took over me.

November: Most of my courses now dropped, lots of hours at AE later and many random moncton trips…I’m still poor. My poor little Hermione died in my hands after living for 2 1/2 years (looong time for a little rattie)

December: Well here I am now. It’s December. How can I sum of December so far? It’s been good. My 7 days off from AE is going by splendidly. I can only forsee the rest of the month being fantastic, especially when everyone comes home for Christmas. Laura Dress-up Tequilla party will be on the 27th at my house!


If extremely bored and you have nothing else better to do, here are links to the previous 2 year end summaries I made:

I think I'm addicted to cuddling.

Right now I'm at Trav's house in Moncton. The boys are off to school and work so I sit here blogging after I having taken a couple yetis. So far this has been the best 4 days off from work ever! Too bad its soon coming to an end.

Thursday started out like any other day. The night before I had promised myself I would start back up the gym in the morning and like any other time, I did not go. Instead I went and picked up Zac in New Maryland where we proceeded to Forest Hills. Since the yetis had been taken away, I was super hyped up from coffee and too much Halo with the boys. No weed smoking at all! Justin had previously mentioned that if he didn't have to work his call in that day, he would take my shift cause he really wanted to work -- so Wes threw out the idea of going to moncton that night instead of waiting for the boys to possibly come down on friday. I called work to see if Justin had been called in and unfortunately he had, so ... I had to work. But, being the crazy caffeinated girl who missed her boyfriend, decided to go to moncton after her shift was done at AE, at 9pm (a big thanks goes out to the stellar managers who let me leave early). I drove the crap out of poor Bessie, she definitely hates me. I hope she doesn't hate me enough to NOT let me go home today tho.. Wes and I rocked out to the tunes on my ipod on the ride up (whoooo Dixie Chicks - Not ready to make nice!) and had a little bond session. Thursday night in Moncton was pretty chill. We sat around, smoked yetis.. The boys played NHL on Xbox.

Friday morning Wes and I hung out and smoked yetis while the boys were in school. We left for fredericton after Bird was off work and went to the boys place in Forest Hills. We proceeded to get rediculously drunk... Or at least I did. I would describe the rest of the night in detail, except I drank a beer and almost a pint of vodka (and probably more that I don't remember. Possibly a yeti or so. Who knows.) Lets just sum it up like this. I don't remember half the night at Forest Hills...I don't remember going to Kristys house...I don't remember being at Kristys house...I don't remember going to the bar...I don't remember being at the bar...I don't remember walking home from the bar in a tank top... The next memory i have from the night is a few blurry flashbacks after seeing random objects that sparked a few embarassing memories.

Trav and I on saturday morning hung out with some of the crew at Kristys place, awaiting a drive to pick up my car in Forest Hills. We boozed again that night of course, at Kristys place. Hilarious pictures that will soon be posted when I go home today. The memory that stands out from the night was Laura and Gill yeti session out of a pop bottle in the bathroom. Joined by Reid covered in toilet paper. We went to the 20/20 that night.

Sunday morning I drove the boys back to Moncton, where we lazed around, got high, did some homework, etc.

And that brings me to this point in time. I plan on heading back to Fredericton this afternoon, where some room cleaning, studying, and time spent at Forest Hills awaits me. Tomorrow will be the Laura Gill library ritalin weed smoking adventure day.

Farewell thee yeti, til we meet again.

Today was a pretty action-filled day. It started off by waking up at 10:30 and going to work at AE from 12-4:15. The shift went by super slow at the beginning but picked up about halfway through. Funny how time seems to change from time to time. After work I headed home, cooked my last can of vegetable soup and met Kristy. We proceeded to Miami Tanning where we roasted in some cancer beds. It was great. We headed to the boys place, where we found out that Randy had taken the yeti bong. It had to happen someday, I was just wishing it wasn't today. Or tomorrow. Or the weekend? Anyways, I can cope. I managed to get a couple yetis at Kristys later on in the night during Laura and Mirays Mexi Trip. The hookah came out tonight instead. Love that thing. Perhaps far more than the yeti bong. ....

I'm really thinking its finally time for a little grocery trip. My cupboards consist of spaghetti noodles, popcorn and peanut butter. My fridge consists of half a carton of OJ, half a pack of eggs and a bottle of ketchup. Not much you can make with that combination...

I'm starting to get a headache.. I am also feeling kinda down right now. I've been feeling like this all day really. Oh well. I'm sure I'll be feeling much better on the weekend.

Sunken to a new low.

Is it pathetic that Laura and I, get this, actually considered and talked about bringing her OC dvd and some cds to Digital World to get cash to ... do basement stuff? Isn't that the definition of an addict...selling your possessions?

Well, I'm now done classes officially. All that is left is my Animal Physiology exam. I'm hoping that will be the class I do well in this semester. My two jobs at school are done for the semester. All that I have left this christmas break is AE. And, I work tomorrow and thursday, then get a whole BIG 7 DAYS OFF from working there! It's going to be so great, just the break I need to relieve some stress (minus the studying involved in having an exam that week.) I can see a little Trav time being involved in that work break too;)

I got my room all cleaned up! Clean bedsheets...vacuumed floor...no accumulation of dishes (minus the ones I was just eating from two minutes ago)

I win.

You can't always get what you want.

There needs to be more bloggage in my life and less facebook. My addiction has exceeded my addiction to blogging. That can be no more. My weekend overall was a disappointment but I ended up having a rather good time. I was looking forward to see Mr. Travis, I even washed my bedsheets!! Unfortunately though, his drive fell through because of the freezing rain and he didn't get to come. Miss him. The good news is, after I suffer tomorrow writing a 20 page paper alllll friggin day/night until I finish (it's due monday) I will be done with school until Dec 13 when I write Animal Phys Exam. I also have 8 days off from work starting on friday so plenty of time to study and some Moncton/Trav time. Speaking of Trav, he just called me drunk on his walk home from the bars but he had to go because they started jogging. I hope he calls back...

So my camera batteries are dead and I really wanted to see the REDICULOUS pictures me and Laura took when we were drunk and fucked up friday night. I totally forgot we even took them until tonight. Oh well, I guess I will have to be patient to look at them. It will make them all the more rediculous.
