So it's cheese bagel Friday again. My favourite day of the week. The day starts off with cheese bagels.... then me and my one co-worker get lunch....usually something we should be eating and then if we are feeling super rebellious we will also get candy. See we spend all week being good, she goes to the gym every day at lunch, i go after work, we both eat healthy lunches and dinners. So Friday we indulge. I know it seems counter productive...but you got to do what makes you happy right. And eating Friday...it makes us both so happy!
On a different note. I have decided i want a pair of skinny cargo pants. This is a super hot trend right now..and normally I am not one to march to a trend but do my own thing. But these pants have a very army feeling too them..i can even get them in cameo. And i miss my army pants. The military trend is 'back' but even with it being fashionable right now...I have never stopped loving the military trends...i will always have a soft spot for army green or cameo. So...me getting these pants is not me jumping on the bandwagon but having the bandwagon finally catch up to me. Although to buy these pants...i am gonna have to dip into my emergency shopping fund....but that's what emergency shopping funds are for right...for fashion emergencies. And with my dress for Alex's wedding being so cheap ($15) i have lots of funds still left in the emergency fund.
I hope everyone has a great Friday...and remember to indulge in some eating!

The headphones
Also, I have already ruined my nylons and decided to go barefoot for the box searching task. While listening to my ipod and dancing. Enjoy that imagery!

Thurday
So today is the day of the 'amazing' bake sale that I have to come in early for. I am having trouble a bake sale is so good...i should wake up half an hour earlier to come to work. I will let you know the outcome. I was also told to bring a Tupperware container.
So..my end of fall coat, the aqua/blue one with the fur around the hood. Well as much as i love that coat...and I do because it was the first thing i bought when i started to lose weight. So it has a special place in my heart....BUT due to the matchiness of it to my headphones I can no longer wear the two together....yesterday some one called me turquoise girl. So i went into my closet and pulled out a different wintery fall jacket...shocking that i have more than one...but i do. It is a black coat....but one look at it and it was like cat fur city. So i started to de-lint it.....i used an entire roll of de-linting sticky tape stuff...and the coat is still hair city. I am starting to think that my cat's fur is un-de-lintable. Which would make sense because they do love to make my life ten times harder than it actually is.
Also, now that i can email posts in...from my blackberry....there will probably be a lot more posts until i get bored of the novelty and then move on to something funner.

Snooze Button is Evil
So I am not feeling this day at all. I have been tired all week....the kind of tired that makes you want to stay in bed and you turn off all 3 of your alarms and use the snooze button so much that you literally have like 5 minutes to get dressed and leave the house. But I trek on. I did my mid term on Monday, it went okay after I got over the blind panic that i forgot everything. I also had a red bull and some chocolate to take the edge off the panic. Tuesday I had one of those days....where nothing goes the way I want it too. I was tired and grumpy from work and I ate my feelings.
Although...truth - I eat all my feelings, not just the grumpy ones. The grumpy ones get carbs, the happy ones usually get pie, the sad ones get....everything in sight, and the excited ones, they get candy.
Anyways, we did our usual glee night, which was fun although i found the glee episode a glorified music video and I am losing faith in the show...oh that doesn't mean i will stop watching it....oh no, singing and dancing are like my favourite thing.
The Destructo kitties have been acting up lately, I have been away too much and I think they are mad at me about it. Last night just as i was about to fall asleep, Remy pushes my entire container of nail polish off my desk....do you know how many bottles of nail polish i have....A LOT. I had to run around the room to pick them all up and make sure none of them broke.
I have class tonight but i am already fantasising about not going...and instead going home and getting a pair of warm and fuzzy pants and cuddling into my bed to watch TV and fall asleep by 9pm. But that wouldn't be very responsible of me....I am an adult now. Even though one of my class mates asked me my age last week and after I told her she refused to believe it and demanded that i show her my licence. She still thinks it is a fake licence.
Anyways....due to my just phoning it in today...i am gonna leave you with another list of things i need to do this week:
1. pick up contacts from post office
2. schedule my interview for my hr project
3. LAUNDRY
4. get quarters so i can actually do laundry and buy some laundry detergent
5. Take out my recycling...why make garbage so easy with a shoot and then make me walk my lazy ass all the way to the ground floor to dispose of recycling.
6. remember to come in early tomorrow so i can go to the bake sale.
Anyways....enjoy your day....hopefully you won't be in as lazy of a mood as i am in and you will accomplish a lot today. I will be proud if i can actually make people think i am awake.

Today's Thoughts
- I ate a chocolate bar for breakfast today, Don't Judge me!
- Although I had almost zero interaction with the wedding photographer on Saturday, I wasn't a fan because he made me squat down in a dress that has a tendency to ride up and flash people my underwear...my fingers are crossed that no underwear was shown in the picture we took on Saturday.
- I also had a weird dream about the photographer, where we were touring a museum (don't know which one) but everyone drove beds around.
- The dream I had last night, i went to watch some illegal horse racing, then went to Alex's wedding where got Wylie a great deal on some sort of farm machine. But Wylie didn't look impressed...i don't think he wanted the machine.
- I noticed today that i somehow without trying made my outfit match my headphones which is really hard to do because my headphones are aqua blue with bright yellow speaker parts. In case you are wondering, I am wearing a bright yellow dress and my winter jacket is aqua blue. I felt so awkward about the matchingness i had to take my ipod off. And now i may never be able to wear this jacket with my head phones again. The things I do for fashion.
- I have learned that i run better to upbeat music, so I am in the process of making a fun dance/pop play list...but my ipod is not currently speaking to my computer so i can't get any music to upload to it.
- The ipod thing, it may have been my fault...i drop it a lot, i shouldn't have blamed it on a fight between the computer and the ipod...that's not true.
- When I am bored I enjoy taking the time to make all my pens, pencils, and markers stand up then I take a picture....i know it is an odd thing to do but i always get so excited when every one of them is standing...try it...it takes a lot of concentration and dedication.
- I sometimes dance around my apartment because I don't like dance clubs but love to dance
- I am suppose to go to Niagara Falls on the weekend with some friends but I really want to bail but then I feel guilty about disappointing them.
- The best way to get me to do something is guilt or bribery or tell me not to do it...i am an excellent candidate for reverse psychology.
- Everyone kept asking me if i was in pain on Sunday from all the dancing Saturday night...the answer is NO, but I had a really sore neck. I think i injured it during the headbanging part of the dancing
- I want to be a pirate for Halloween
- I really enjoy my curly hair but i don't like how long it takes to do.
- At one time, i thought that maybe i should go to beauty school and because of my love of nail polish
- People tell me all the time how great i look with long hair and then they say very passionately 'don't ever cut it' and i always think well gee...tell me what you really think of my old hair.
- I didn't vote yesterday because i thought the polls were open until 9pm and they weren't....so i didn't get home from school in time.

Dancing Fool
So...this is gonna be a long post FYI!
The wedding:
Alex and Matt looked great!
And the actual wedding was beautiful and very meaningful....although, me being not very religious didn't catch all the meaning, i kept staring up at the front of the church and seeing two painting of animals with halo's and spent the whole time wondering what was holy about them.
Also....I spent the whole wedding concerned about my hair. See we drove all the way from Toronto that morning and when we got to Paul and Judy's I changed immediately and then started on my hair. I wanted to do my fancy curly hair...but i got maybe a third of my hair done and Judy was like 5 minutes. At that point...i was like 'Oh Shit' i am so not gonna be ready in time. So Leah curled while I did make up...then i threw everything in my bag and went to the car barefoot and carrying everything I needed to finish getting ready. I put my nylons on in the car, then shoes, then jewelry, then freaked out about my hair being like half done. And seriously people, I am not just being neurotic about this...even though everyone was like, your hair is fine, no one will notice. I was like DUDE...there is a large section of my hair not curled at all...it is much longer than the curled part...how will people not notice. It looks horrible. So then brainstorm...find my hair comb, take the undone part, pull it back stick the comb in...after like 5 tries....it finally stays...then i hair spray and gel it in place, then grab a hair clip and clip the stuff falling down in place. And like magic, i have some sort of rocker chic hair do that looks like it is suppose to be that way. But the hair comb so didn't want to stay in so i had to fiddle with it the whole wedding. And because it wasn't the way I exactly imagined it to be....I was going crazy about it. Although my new friend Justin told me that he didn't think i would get it together in time..and was super impressed with the finished product and that when i commit to a look...i commit 100%.
The 'musical guests' were so beautiful. Olga was great, Mike....Mike made me tear up, and made mom cry, he has such a beautiful amazing voice you can't help but be in awe of his talent! And then Will, I have always had a special place in my heart for my cousin Will. And i know for the rest of the family it was incredibly hard to watch him fade away into something else. Me being in Toronto, I have always been removed from it. And I feel guilty that I haven't been there to help more, that I haven't been there fighting to get him back like everyone else. Anyways this post isn't about that and is a whole different bag of worms. But having him sing as Alex walked out...made me cry..because that was almost like having the old Will back. I don't think i am describing this right at all but let me just say. It was a beautiful moment for me and I am sure everyone else as well.
As soon as the wedding was over...all i could think about was getting somewhere with a plug so i could re-curl my hair..and make it work better. Also, i needed to fix my make up because i did that is a crazy hurry as well.
Between the wedding and the reception I was at Nana's in the bathroom, and while everyone was socializing and drinking and having fun...i was curling my hair and freaking out that it wasn't the way i wanted it. I think i may be slightly crazy. Oh well....in the end, i got it to a place where it was good enough for me to pretend that it was the way i wanted it. And really by the end of the night...it was a crazy sweaty rats nest...so all that work and obsession couldn't hold up to the urge to head bang like i did in the old days of my youth. Ahh young angry Erin who expressed herself by wearing black and listening to angry music. How embarrassing!
Okay...i wandered off topic again......Oh yeah....Nana's. So when I finally finished my hair, i came out mingled...well not really...i put myself near the food...and ate carbs...oh how i missed carbs...i figured at that point, i was already in the dress and the spanxs....and nothing was working out exactly as i planned it....so screw the plans, Let's eat carbs!!!
Then we were off to the reception where me and Leah had an important job as guest book administrators. I LOVED the guest book idea, so original and beautiful....I love the idea that you can frame it and hang it on your wall as art after your wedding.
Then it was the classic family picture time. Which although, I do enjoy having pictures of the whole family...we are kind of large and hard to wrangle after a few drinks...which at this point...i am sure everyone has had. But outside we trekked and posed and pictured....I had to squat down in front and normally I don't have a problem being in the front because i am crazy short, i am use to it. But it was the squatting that i had trouble with. My LBD..although super awesome...i had discovered earlier that day when i accidentally flashed Justin my underwear...was a little shorter than anticipated. So i spent to whole picture being like...dress don't ride up, don't ride up...do not have your underwear showing in a family picture.
Then dinner....we were at the cousins table. Dinner was great, the robots...i mean waiters were efficient and polite. Speeches were good, Andrea was a bit tipsy, wine was flowing. And then....I got a tiny piece of cake. Everyone else, huge square pieces then mine this tiny little piece.....it felt like the waiters were like...you in that tiny black dress...you can't afford to have any more of a food baby....here is the size of piece we will allow you. It was a great joke at our table. And i was a good sport about it...because in reality...that was all I had room for...so now i am convinced the waiters....they were psychic.
What I was really waiting for this whole wedding....was dance time. I have been waiting to dance since the bachelorette!
While they were getting the dance floor ready, I got to chat with people and make new friends. After we missed out on the fireplace chairs which were later tainted by a couple making out. We snagged a good couch location. I got to talk to Ryan and Kate....learned Kate can do the blood sign..and she taught it to me and Leah. Can't wait to flash that around. Although....Ryan, i know you read this...so I am gonna tell you, i didn't get to talk to you enough....It was probably my fault because i was distracted by all the dancing....but....i think we should talk more...maybe even become best friends. It is just a thought. Let me know what you think.
Then it was DANCE TIME.
That was my favourite time. I was what you would describe as a dancing fool. I spent most of the night on the dance floor. Although i was constantly worried about my dress riding up and flashing my underwear to people. Me and uncle Paul had a great dance song to Push it. Me and Amy showed everyone how to properly shake your butt during Baby got Back. The only dance i did not enjoy was when it turned into a giant circle...because although i love to dance...i don't like to really be the centre of attention. I know a lot of you are shocked at that comment...but it is true...when everyone is staring at me and I know it...i get all nervous and awkward. It just weirds me out. So no circle dancing for me. I did a lot of stomping that night...i was trying something new because well i had recently watched stomp the yard...and dude...i can do that. I wish I had more opportunities to dance. I don't like to go to dance clubs because really it is a bunch of people just looking for opportunities to grind on people. And it is usually full of skeevy guys just looking to hook up and skanky girls. I LOVE to dance....but I like to dance with people that are also looking to have FUN and not worry about how they look while dancing. I am sure i looked like some sort of spastic crazy person...but who cares...it was fun.
Special shout outs to:
Mom and dad who had the time of their lives on the dance floor and were very sore the next day.
Andrea and Wylie who got a night away from their kids and relaxed!
Steph and Alex who got mark to actually dance
Justin for being a great date, even though he had a few dates that night
Amy for lending me her boyfriend for my date
Paul for speaking my dancing language
Nana for shaking it like a Polaroid picture....way later me..you party animal!
And Finally: To Alex and Matt. It was a beautiful and amazing time....thank you for inviting me....and letting me dance the night away!!!
PS....i am really tired and have a mid term tonight...so...it is gonna be a red bull day....wish me luck!

Carb Breakdown
So, when I am trying to lose weight or just get skinny for a certain event, I cut off carbs. This is the hardest thing ever because carbs are like crack for me. Bread is the most delicious thing ever and you can use it in a whole crazy number of ways.
As you all know because I have been talking about it all week....I am trying to slim down quickly for the wedding on Saturday, so obvious first step no carbs and lots of water. This sounds very simple to most people....but unfortunately for me, once I start carb detox all i can think about is bread. Yesterday was the hardest day ever because they had a united way bread sale in our office and it took all the will power i had to not buy any!
But sadly people....I cracked today and fell off the no carb wagon in a bad way. In my office Friday mornings are cheese bagel days from Tim Horton's. Sitting beside me right now....a toasted cheese bagel with cream cheese and tomato. I haven't eaten it yet....but I will...and it will be the most glorious thing I have ever eaten. Then the shame and remorse will kick in.
But don't worry...i will punish myself for the rest of the day...only lettuce and water!
Can't wait for tomorrow.....it is gonna be so much fun.
PS.....are nylons for old people. I bought a pair of thigh highs and steph made fun of me saying that only old people wear nylons and i should just wear bare legs. I need opinions....what do you think?

Politics
Okay....I know that politics are a hot and controversial topic and it is not the type of thing we talk about here but...I have something to say.
So, much to probably everyone's disappointment, I am an apathetic non-voter. I don't follow any of the issues, I have no idea who is running, and i am not at all interested. I know...it is horrible that I don't take an interest. As grandma says 'do you know how hard we fought to have the right to vote'. So guilt city. But here's what I know will ensure that I never vote for you. I don't want your flyer, don't leave them at my door or in my mail box or even shoved under my door into my apartment...that is just annoying paper that i am immediately not gonna read. Also, don't stand in front of the subway steps trying to get me to take your pamphlet....because that also annoys me. If you are gonna hand out pamphlets at the station stand a little away from the steps so you don't block them and create a bottle neck...that just makes people who are already running late, aka me, more late and more annoyed.
I may actually vote this year and here's why - the mayoral race is crazy and my whole family is intensely against the front runner. For me, I met one of the candidates at a few work events and he is nice, and friendly and in my opinion awesome. Also, He is crazy tiny, shorter than me. Extreme height differences impress me for some reason. Also, he is deputy mayor so he already knows what he is doing. So it is logical that we vote for him...unfortunately everyone according to my sister is going to vote strategically against one guy and not for the best candidate. Which frustrates me....and is one of the main reasons i don't like or involve myself in politics....because when we have to vote for a guy we don't believe in to stop another guy we don't like from becoming mayor...it just seems we are shooting ourselves in the foot. And that's not how i roll!
Anyways....that is my two cents about politics and why I enjoy my status as non-voter.
So, much to probably everyone's disappointment, I am an apathetic non-voter. I don't follow any of the issues, I have no idea who is running, and i am not at all interested. I know...it is horrible that I don't take an interest. As grandma says 'do you know how hard we fought to have the right to vote'. So guilt city. But here's what I know will ensure that I never vote for you. I don't want your flyer, don't leave them at my door or in my mail box or even shoved under my door into my apartment...that is just annoying paper that i am immediately not gonna read. Also, don't stand in front of the subway steps trying to get me to take your pamphlet....because that also annoys me. If you are gonna hand out pamphlets at the station stand a little away from the steps so you don't block them and create a bottle neck...that just makes people who are already running late, aka me, more late and more annoyed.
I may actually vote this year and here's why - the mayoral race is crazy and my whole family is intensely against the front runner. For me, I met one of the candidates at a few work events and he is nice, and friendly and in my opinion awesome. Also, He is crazy tiny, shorter than me. Extreme height differences impress me for some reason. Also, he is deputy mayor so he already knows what he is doing.

LBD
I have found a LBD aka Little Black Dress. It will work perfectly for Saturday.....and plus side, it is kind of plain so i get to funk it out with fun accessories. I love me some fun accessories. Right now i am trying to decide what my major accessory should be, a fun and funky belt to add colour and dimension to the dress OR a big crazy necklace. I am leaving my rings off and i was thinking of wearing a bunch of fake pearl bracelets to be all classy. My friend Ebony says i should do something crazy and wear a neutral tone nail polish because no one will be expecting it. But i am leaning towards.....SHOCK....black! All i know is thanks to H&M....that is where i bought the dress...it was only $15. I have the most rockingest luck at shopping there. All the clothes i love there...on sale.
I had some major help with the shopping this week. My friend Ebony came with me and together we are unstoppable when on a mission. She calls us E squared because our names both start with E.
Now as perfect as this dress is...there are a few small problems...
1. It is kind of see through in the right light
2. I look kind of lumpy in it....not fat but i could use something to just smooth me out. Basically you can see the indent of my underwear and that's not pretty.
So...here is my solution - I shall be buying a pair of spanks....in black that way it solves the see through problem and hides my underwear lines. I was gonna buy a slip but because of the type of dress it is, i don't think a slip will fit smoothly underneath the dress. I am a little excited about this, i have never owed spanks before.

5 Pounds of Grump
So....bad news guys about the prom dress situation. I tried it on Saturday.....and it was like sausage city! It was skin skin SKIN tight and you could see my little Buddha belly and my belly button. I must have gained some weight in the past two weeks. So this week, I am drinking a million gallons of water, exercising every day, and not eating much except for veggies. Yes it is an extreme crash diet which kids, don't do at home....but it is an emergency situation.
I have also been looking for another dress to fill in, and I found a dress i love! But it is a white dress shirt dress that have a very serious pirate feel to it....so not right for a wedding.
So this week is gonna be a very grumpy week for me. I do not like being restricted from my food! If that doesn't work....i have no idea what i will end up in at the wedding. But at least i know what i am doing with my hair.

Family fun day
On Friday, me and Andrea took the kids to Whitamores for fall fun. It was a great time....well except that it was crazy windy and muddy! But the kids enjoyed it, we saw goats and cows and did a corn maze and then feed the goats leaves from the corn maze.
But my favourite part was when we were in the farmers market part, the roof was canvas and the wind kept whipping it, so it was making very loud noises. Braydon was very certain that the roof was going to fall on us so he demanded to leave. It was very adorable. I love that kid. Although my other favourite part was Ally in the corn maze holding a stalk of corn larger than her and dancing. That kid dances on command, and you know how i love dancing on command. Everyone should do it!
But it was a great day because if I could I would spend most of my time with Andrea and the kids. They have a way of just making your day.

Ski Lodging
So Sunday may have been my absolutely favourite day of my vacation...well it is a toss up between Friday (during the day) or Sunday.
On Sunday I was suppose to go shopping with Friend and she bbm'd me in the morning with the idea that we should road trip to buffalo....and i thought why not....random spontaneous road trips are always fun.
So we decide to drive the scenic route to the states through the Niagara parkway so we can see all the beautiful fall foliage. It was such a nice drive we decided to stop in Niagara on the lake for lunch. And we were having so much fun...we decided to tour around Niagara and play tourist. It was so much fun! And best part...i bought a sweater...very similar to the sweater I wanted from the 2010 Olympic wear. The sweater that all the athletes wore at the closing ceremonies. So we found a bunch on sale at this gift store in Niagara and me and Friend each bought one. They are wool sweaters with fleece lining and they have mooses on them!
Friend lives winter sports. I unfortunately am the clumsiest person ever when it comes to winter sports but she wants me to go with her on snowboarding trips. I told her, i would be perfectly to content to hang out in the ski lodge and drink hot coco by the fire. That is when we came up with a new sport/form of entertainment.....Ski Lodging. So we are going wear our cozy sweaters and get some fuzzy boots and some leggings and hang out in ski lodges all winter.

Curls and Cowboys
So, I guess the most pressing story to tell is the only one that makes me angry. I figure, vent it out and get it over with then I can move onto better and happier things.
Friday night was the celebration for a couple of friends birthdays. I was excited and looking forward to catching up with a favourite person of mine. I hadn't seen him in awhile and I had missed him. So in honour of his birth...plus in practice for fun and fancy wedding hair, i curled my hair that night. Although it wasn't planned, I was looking decent. I put make up on, i fancied up my hair, my clothes weren't too covered in cat hair. I had some awesome accessories on.
But when I showed up to the party....I heard the worst thing ever! Boy had come. Some of you may remember boy from previous posts....as the boy i was dating and then got crushed by. Side note...that i even dated him....makes me so mad, he is such a jackass and i can't believe i even fell for him at all. I MEAN SERIOUSLY....What was I Thinking????
What was he even doing there...these are my friends...mine not his. And if he thinks they are his friends...Well let's take a look at the history of our interaction.
1) You treated their best friend aka me like shit.
2) Listening in on your conversation Friday night, you are clearly crazy and unbalanced!
3) You are pretending that nothing ever happened between us at all, like we were never dating.
4) You dressed like a gay cowboy Friday night, shiny shirts and giant belt buckles are not cool unless you are actually a real cowboy and have earned your belt buckle through some sort of rodeo event!
The worst part about it...was originally, the reason i like him was because you were nice, funny, and you took the time to understand me. I am not the most easy to understand but he seemed to understand me better than most. But clearly it was all an act because now....he acts like we are great friends and that is all. He doesn't even understand why I am mad. God...I was so mad Friday night.
But me being the queen of avoiding confrontations....just pretended he wasn't even there Friday night. It would have been great to tell him off or tell him why we can never be friends or even to just punch him in the face. But instead i ignored him and then blogged my anger out here.
Okay....VENT OVER
But sadness remains. I am disappointed that for the first time in a long time, i decided to let someone in and he abused my trust. I am sad that i know it is gonna be so much harder for me to trust a new person. I am sad that i have a pattern of dating guys that just start ignoring me instead of breaking it off to my face. Am I that bad? Am I that scary to talk to face to face?
I would love to find someone that understands me as I am and even loves me for all my oddness but at the same time, I just don't know if I would even give any guy a chance to get close enough to see me and love me. I guess it comes down to the fact that I just don't believe it's out there for me. And that is the most depressing thought of all!

OMG
So yesterday I worked the NHL event in yonge dundas square. And i just wanted to let you know....people drive me crazy some times. We were working an event that you had to play the game concentration and if you found two matching items, you won that item. Now here's the problem....clearly people do not know or understand that game...which is okay. but after i explain it to you and you still don't win...don't be a sore loser...you can line up and try again. They are prizes all under $5....so let's just all relax and have fun!
On another note...and I never thought I would say this...but my work out was not hard enough last night. That's right....they had two classes instead of one and we didn't have Marv as an instructor so we weren't pushed as hard as we could have been. There are two types of classes - hybrid & elite....and we pay for elite but last night...we got hybrid. Not impressed with that.

A day and a Half
Only a day and a half until I am on vacation. I need a break so so bad. I have great plans....I am gonna go through my clothes and donate the ones i don't wear any more, renew my passport, clean my apt from top to bottom (it is gonna sparkle with cleanliness), get some new blinds...mine are so ghetto that one of them broke, ie stopped rolling up so i just rolled it up myself and duct taped it. Although on the curtain issue, i am gonna have to find curtains that the destructo kitties can't destroy. We are on our 3rd shower curtain and second bathmat. Remy likes to pull the wool out of the bathmat one strand at a time and Logan likes to chew on the shower curtain.
Anyways.....back to vacation plans...I will be exercising every day, i have some pictures to hang, I am gonna hang out with Andrea!!!! and maybe i will start sewing again. It has been a long time since i made something....i think it is time!
Also due to my hypothetical issue...i will be glad to have a break!

Does your company value you?
Hypothetically, you have worked for a company for 5 years.....and an opportunity comes up to take over a maternity leave in a different department but you are told you are not gonna have a job to come back to. But you have worked there for 5 years, you believe it is a good company to work for and they take great care of their employees. So you take the risk and take the maternity leave contract. Knowing that your company is not gonna let go of a person that has always proved to be an excellent worker.
A year later...your new department is lovely, you like your co-workers but want more of a challenge. You get contacted by the hr department about a job opportunity that they think would be a great fit for you. First of all your hr representative never tells you about the opportunity, the hiring officer contacts you to find out why you haven't applied. So you go through the interview...it goes great. It seems like it will be an amazing fit. They tell you they will let you know by the end of the week.
Three weeks later.......
You get a call telling you that they had two extremely qualified candidates. And they went with an external candidate over you.
How does that make you feel? Does that make you feel like your company is there for you? Does that make you feel like your company feels that you are important to them?

Perspective
So....when I was young....I thought no one would notice me, why would they i didn't have any confidence and I constantly doubted myself. So, I dyed my hair crazy colours, wore a lot of black...it was my armor, my defence. Since i didn't think people would notice me for my own merits then i would make people notice me.
Truth....I have never thought I was very pretty. I am short and way too curvy....with a tendency to be a little heavy. I have always wanted to be tall and skinny and willowy.
BUT
I have slowly been gaining more confidence and working on accepting myself for who I am. I started trying to change the things about me that I wanted too and could...and the things that i was stuck with...well it was time to accept them. It has been a gradual change but I think I have finally found myself...and stopped hiding.
Then this weekend at Alex's bridal shower...Nana said the nicest thing to me ever. She told me that each time she sees me I get prettier. And that I was never not pretty but I use to wear too much black and that was just not pretty. She said it is nice to see that i have stopped hiding my pretty. I told her...that i am a work in progress and i am not done cooking but one day...i will be done!
I have never wanted to blend in with everyone else. But i never had the confidence to stand out on my own merits. I have always used fashion to help me. But the clothes don't wear me any more!
Also, I have learned that the tall skinny girls would kill for my boobs, It is always greener on the other side. So it is time to start accepting the boobs, the last thing that causes me uncertainty.

Sparkle-tastic
There was a big event this weekend in our family.....Alexandra Dawn's Bachelorette/bridal shower. It was an amazing party. I must admit during the shower, i was a little overwhelmed by how many people where there but that just goes to show how many people love Alex, and that isn't a surprise because she is one of the nicest most caring people ever!
So when it was bachelorette time....there was lots more drinking and dancing and a few dirty games. But the funnest part may have been, Nana. She was in fine form....dancing, telling everyone we are going to the whore house and that she was the madam. She also touched my boobs and put her hand up my skirt. Although I have found that when alcohol is involved and i am hanging out with a bunch of girls....my boobs get grabbed so much. You would think the guys would be the handsy ones...but no....girls always have no shyness about grabbing away. So my boobs got grabbed a few times that night by people at the party.
Anyways....at the bar, we danced and had lots of fun...my favourite part of the first bar was when step told me that someone made Alex do a tequila shot and that didn't go down so well so she threw up in a glass while the bartender watched and then handed it to him when she was finished. So as fun as the first place we went...the opposite was true at the second. Now let me just say a few things up front. I am 30 years old...i have recently started acting like a grown up...so maturity is new to me. I have never felt my age...I have always felt way younger than I actually am.....but going to bars that are filled with university kids...and I mean KIDS....I have never felt so old. So back to stages....first Alex talks her way past the line...for our entire party...of like 15 people. Then we go in and as soon as i step on the floor...i am absolutely disgusted.....There is carpet on the floor....at a dance club....really! The floor feels wet so when you step on the carpet it squishes...then when you try to keep moving...your shoes actually stick to the ground!!!! I was so grossed out...We didn't stay too long at stages...because in true cox family tradition...a bar fight almost happened. Alex and crew were dancing on the stage...and this girl went to the bouncer and told him that they were getting pushed and stuff and the bouncer went to Alex and asked them to be careful or something....I don't know all the details of the conversation..but then we decided to move to avoid the negative psycho bitch...but after they got off the stage..the girls were like laughing and bragging that they won...then Alex went up to them...and was like 'are you happy now, are you happy now?' the other girl was like you wanna take this outside. And my favourite line of the evening belongs to Lindsay 'Do I look like someone who takes things outside?'
So Lessons: 1) Drinks in Kingston....crazy cheap, especially when frequenting college bars...$2.50, then they raised the price at midnight...to $3.50!
2) Don't ever go to Stages....gross!
3) Don't tell people your real age because everyone thinks you are 23 and you fit right in where you are.
Overall, it was a very excellent party. And I cannot wait for this wedding...cox's and amodeo's all in one place....gonna be crazy loud and full of dancing....and drinking...lots of both. Although, i am on a budget so i will most likely be flasking it! I am gonna get a garter and bring the flask in that way.
