October 25

I went over to my friend Alberto's last night to eat paella and drink wine with him and his friend Brandy. I brought the bottle of pinot noir I got from the Red Rooster Winery when I was in Penticton a couple of weeks ago. It was really good. The paella was also really good. What wasn't very good was the three of us polishing off three bottles of wine and a good deal of gin.

I feel gross today. Hopefully a coffee and a long shower will help me prepare for my shift at Rape Relief.

Ugh.

October 11

Leaving for Penticton now. I'll be back on Monday.

Happy turkey day!!!

October 6

Hey dudes!

I was going to try and update today because it's my birthday (and because a lot has changed since the last time) but I've been kinda busy opening presents and eating birthday chilli and apple pie.

Thanks to everyone for all the birthday love. You'll all be hearing from me individually once I get a second.

Love you lots!!!

ps - our thanksgiving trip to penticton is still on! wooooooooo!

October 1

Some things that are shitty:

• The left rear tire of the Trooper was murdered. Yup, stabbed mercilessly and left to die. So, the Trooper is temporarily out of commission. Don't ask who or why because we don't know.
  
• Matt has to work Thanksgiving weekend, which puts a giant kink in our excursion to Penticton. Hopefully we can work around his schedule and if not, I'll be taking the bus out. I need some time out of the city.
• I keep coming across giant piles of human poopy on my way to work. I find those discoveries really disconcerting, especially when I almost step in it. Yuck.
• I have a parking ticket from August that I still haven't paid.
  
• I'm sad and I just can't seem to shake it.
  

Some things that are awesome:

• I'm meeting up with my best friend from Grade 6 tonight. I haven't seen her since then and she's in town for a week so I couldn't possibly pass this opportunity up.Vanessa and I were glued together in Cold Lake. We also loved line dancing and Madonna.
• I've saved up my tip money and I'm going to buy my Lykke Li tickets tomorrow. That makes me happy.
• My birthday is in 5 days! Woooo!

Ok. I'm off to have a nap so I can be well rested for my visit with Vanessa tonight.

Loves and hugs!
