Sadness forever

I just wanted to let you all know I need a break from blogging. My cat Logan has passed away. I am not handling it well. I am very sad and I don't feel like blogging.

I will be back soon. And one day maybe I will tell you the story of logan's death. But right now I need some space

Watermelon Nails

I have decided to give myself a spring manicure and i am going to go home after work and paint one of my nails to look like a piece of watermelon. 

That is all!

Oh...Steph has joined the Nike team in training, they raise money for leukemia research.  She is running the San Francisco marathon....We should all go online and sponsor her.

This Just In

Everyone at work is talking puppies.  And i have always said that i wanted a wiener dog and i would name him low rider and get him a leather jacket and all that. 

BUT

I have changed my mind.  I now want a bulldog, i think they are the perfect dog for me.  I have done some research and the say that they are relaxed and laid back dogs, they don't bark much, they don't really like to exercise much, and they are very loyal and gentle.  Unfortunately, they are also ranked very low on the dog intelligence scale....78 out of 80.  But you know what....that doesn't bother me at all. 
I think a bulldog is perfect for me.  Now there are two types of bulldogs that i am considering, the english bulldog, they also have stubby legs and are very wrinkly, or the French bulldog, similar to the english but have less wrinkles and really big ears. 

I would make a great dog owner...i know it.  but unfortunately...the destructo kitties are very territorial so they would not be so accepting of a new animal.  So until i have more space, i won't be getting a bulldog puppy....just wishing i had one!

Where'd My Energy Go?

I have sad news....i don't think my new B12 vitamin is really giving me the required energy boost because every morning this week i have had to drag myself out of bed.  The B12 is suppose to bring me back to my usual perky self but every morning it feels like a giant sleep weight is on my shoulders and i want to just stay in bed forever. 
I am tired of being tired all the time.  I needs me a pick me up.  A magic tired no more pill.  And we all know it shouldn't be red bull, not only is it bad for you because of all that sugar and other chemicals....it makes me too hyper.  So i go from one extreme to another....which doesn't work either.  And then when the sugar and chemicals run out of my system I crash hard core!

Alright it is time to start researching tiredness.

And i know its not mono because i have had it before and my blood test didn't reveal mono, only B-12 deficiency.
And i know its not - not sleeping enough because i go to bed way earlier now....like 11pm.  and i don't get up until like 7:40.

Headphone kryptonite

So....another pair bites the dust.  But i don't even understand because this pair didn't even get touched by the cats.  They worked on Friday on the way to buffalo and then Monday morning on the way to work, the left ear won't play music.  I mean...really??? what the hell?

I am so annoyed.  It is like i have this headphone curse and they are suppose to break like every 2 months.  Who knows....all i know is that the people at best buy are starting to ask questions....ones that i can't answer.

Will they ever make a pair of headphones that can survive my curse?  Maybe i should become a headphone tester.

Sore Eyes

Guys....i am kind of grumpy today...my laser eyes which have been healing fine and everything, giving me no trouble are randomly sore today.  Okay maybe not randomly sore...last night i was up late reading course material for my spring school course.  I think the staring at the computer screen all day and all night really killed my eyes.  They feel all dry and sore and itchy.  Booo.  it is making me worry that there is something wrong with my laser eyes.  My laser eyes complete me just like i heard that Renee zellwegger completes yucky tom cruise in Jerry McGuire. 

I think i am going to have to have a work nap today....give my eyes a rest...plus lots of eye drops.  Okay..Plan Made!

If they don't feel better by the end of the day....it will be time to re-evaluate the plan.

In other news...do you like t-ball?  Brady played in his first game last night.  He is going to be a great athlete!

Attitud3s

So, when crossing the boarder, i always like to pick a car in another lane and see who wins the boarder crossing challenge...us or the other car.  This time i picked a silver car that had a personalized licence plate.  We won the crossing challenge...but then on Sunday, we saw the same car in the mall parking lot.  It was very small world!
It was a great girls weekend except that Alex was feeling under the weather.  But she rallied very well.  I also enjoyed the number of times we went to target this weekend.  The last time, me and Amy enjoyed some food from Target cafe.  Also i am quite impressed with this brand they have Archers Farms, they have some delicious food.  And their Arnold Palmer Arizona Ice Tea....so cheap, only 2.99 for like a giant container.  Makes me happy.
I got some lovely clothes...all on sale.  Best deal was some jeans from the Guess outlet, only 15 dollars.  Impressive!
I also got this necklace, it is an owl made out of hearts and the saying on the package was 'Owl always love you' and i though yes erin...i will always love myself. 
Then i got really into Owls and i found so much owl jewelry in the states...it is going to be the hot new thing....trust me.  Although, heads up, real live owls...still scary.  Live birds....still freak me out.  Jewelry...not so scary.  I even think i would like to get a pair of feather earrings.

Anyways...it was a good weekend, and while i was away, my cats ate some of my cheerios and a bagel...but other than that, they were pretty good.  They really missed me!

New Favourite thing EVER!!!

So most of you won't get this....not if you don't watch Glee.  Over the course of the show Britney S. Pears has slowly become my absolute favourite character and this week we learned not only does she host an internet web show called Fondue for Two....which is awesome and has like the best opening credits/theme song ever.  She has a cat named Lord Tubington.....best cat ever! Fat and lazy.  I also really enjoyed her hard hitting interview of Lord Tubington for her web show.

Seriously....i am still laughing about it!

Packing List

So for the weekend, I need to decide what to bring.  I don't want to bring too much but i don't want to forget my pj's like last time.  I also don't plan to spend too much but you never know....when you find something that works, sometimes you just need to buy it.

Now...if we are planning to have a hot tub party or anything then i will need to some how get my swim suit from my parent's house to me downtown.  Although i don't think i will really be feeling the swimming this weekend.  And at least this time, i don't have to bring my work out clothes...steph and mom wanted to run Saturday and Sunday morning.

But this trip is all about girl bonding, shopping, and the olive garden!!!!  Oh i have also been told that the macaroni balls at the cheese cake factory are too die for.  I am unsold on the cheese cake factory...don't tell my co-workers..they think it is the best place ever but i am not a big cheese cake fan and when we went there last time only the appetizers were delicious.  Maybe that is what you have to do when you go there...only get appetizers.

Okay so packing list:
PJ's (most important since i forgot last time)
Maybe some loungy pants
my favourite jeans...i think i will just wear them on Friday and maybe just dirty it up and wear them all weekend to save on the packing room
my grey sweater with the elbow patches...although my favourite jeans are grayish and i don't like to wear the two together because it is too much blah in one outfit.  Must re-evaluate...do i want my favourite sweater or my favourite jeans?

Nah...i am not going to plan it out...i am going to pack how i feel on Friday....that means there is a higher probability of forgetting something but it is more authentic to what i want to wear.

Oh...and as my mom reminded me last night...don't forget your passport!

Day Two

Hate hair a little less today....still don't love it or like it, at this point i tolerate it.  I am hoping i will just wake up one day and i will love it to pieces.

I know what you are all thinking, it is just hair, stop being so dramatic.....well screw you people.  I love my hair, i take pride in my hair, a new hair cut usually gives me happiness for weeks and weeks.  Hating my hair is something that hardly ever happens to me.  I have had it every length, curly or straight, and now every colour possible and i have never been disappointed.

I need my layers to grow out a bit....once the hair settles and grows a bit, i am hoping i will like my hair cut but until then it is a battle.  I have been looking into hat options....last night i practiced wearing scarfs on my head like a gypsy.  Now all i need is to find the perfect outfit to make it look cool and stylish and not hey i predict futures.

In other news...the grumps continue.  I am hoping they go away by the weekend because i am headed to buffalo for a fun girls weekend with Amy and Alex.  It is going to be awesome and i don't want my grumps to ruin the fun.

Sadness overtakes

So...i have been like super happy for the past two weeks, ever since i got my eyes lasered.  I have been positive and optimistic.....a vast change from before, no bitching about my contract, no whining about life...just yah yah yah. 

But something terrible has happened.  Something that has always been so wonderful for me is causing me much distress.  I got my hair cut on Saturday.....i wanted to go a darker shade of brown...more chocolate brown, with more layers.  And she cut and dyed it....i loved it on Saturday, it was a little more layered than i was comfortable with but it looked quite nice.  Then Sunday, i was quite worried because i had trouble getting the layers under control.  By the end of the day i was convinced it was not the hair cut i wanted.

This morning.....hair melt down!  I was late for work because i couldn't get my hair to do what i wanted, one side, all the layers worked together and curled in.  The other side, i had weird bumps and lumps and all my layers flipping out the wrong way.  I was so upset!

I am not sure if i have told you of my mullet fear but i am always worried i will end up with a mullet but now when i look in the mirror all i see is 80's rocker hair...and i hate it.  Everyone else seems to think it looks great but all i see is horrible. 

I need to find a way to re-bond with my hair.  I think if my layers just grew out a bit, everything will be okay.  But for now they layers are just too fresh and un-controllable
