Thank you, comment box people
...which is actually ennetation, but I forgot how to spell it for a moment. It was ridiculously easy. So I spent awhile picking out a template....(and yes, i KNOW it doesn't match, but i got so sick of looking at them i grabbed this one. It's cute: i like it.)

Yesterday
After getting home from work (slightly soggy and worried - i mean, how often does one see a car that smashed into a giant cement pillar? It was unpleasant, to say the least) i open the door AND...mom has left a message saying that she locked herself out of her car. And i had to go rescue her. I did, though she had climbed in through the trunk by the time i got there. Resourceful, ne?

Then I go into the backyard only to find itmoderately flooded. Seriously - in the five years I have lived there i have never seen the backyard flood. Oh well - anybody who tries to cut through the backyard now is in for a serious surprise.

Bet all the spiders are gone.

It's 9:40. Is it pathetic when you spend your days counting down to when you get to leave? I'm saving up for South Africa/University so it's not like it's entirely in vain. yay university. i'm looking forward to it. One of the ladies here - her son works in the admissions dept. Not that it'll give me an 'in' but at least i can ask him many, many questions. For I am ignorant in the way of post-secondary schooling. I'm debating - UBC or Trinity? I'm more betting on Trinity - if only because the class sizes are smaller. I even know my majors. No sciences for Sargwa!

Office is oddly silent...

Anyhow. I guess that's it for now. Can't promise more but chances areI'llbe back, bored out of my skull, around two.
ever sing that song and the rains came down/and the floods came up(repeat 3X) ...but the house on the rock stood firm. Ahh childhood. I guess you had to be there.

...and the old man keeps snoring...
Yes, I'm back, which in itself should say something of how bored I truly am. Today I have neither the capacity nor will to actually work....and am contemplating sneaking out of here at four instead of 4:30. Who knows.
You know it's wet outside when your mother calls with the sole purpose of warning me to be 'careful' when I drive. She normally reserves that comment for Friday/Saturday night jaunts. *sighs*. Then again, for all i know it could be snowing. I see no window (another fact which is depressing...though not that much. I tend to daydream if placed near a window)

I've also been reading other people's blogs. Random people-- most of whom I have never encountered before. Anywhere. Blogging is a very self-indulgent, narcissistic pastime. I think that's why I love it.

you can't tell, but i've been gone for 30 mins
Yes, stuffing envelopes and talking to Martin, who is wonderful. No*feelings* just....happiness.He's so cute. So nice. If he didn't have an equally wonderful girlfriend I'd be jealous. I hope all the nice people in the world pair off. They all deserve each other :)

That's it for now. Even though it's blustery and disgusting, I'm cheery once again.

People at Work Who annoy me

June
Now, I know she's technically nice, but in reality you KNOW she just is thinking 'what a slacker' and 'I'm her elder, she HAS to listen to me'. And while that may be true (damn my parents for raising me well!) it's also annoying as hell, because I'm grumpy and she told me that i could park in the nice spot RIGHT by the door, but had to go to the dance academy parking lot which is across this huge gravel(currently MUD) parking lot. GRAAAAH.

Doralee
NOw she i like...but she does things that irk me. Like she ALWAYS is talkingabout how God 'uses' her. I'm sure he does - and that'sgreat, but you're not supposed to BRAG. *sighs*GRR.

It's Raining. Cold. I'm wet and GRUMPY. ANdthe LAST thing I want to do is sit in this ROTTEN cubicle and type all day. Somebody come bust me out of here.

Songs I won't listen to on the radio

Can't Hold Us Down
Christina Aguillera and Li'l Kim

Ok, Xtina we get that you're all into the 'girl power' thing - but I don't know if you've looked around recently. Y'see, while sexism still does exist, i severely doubt that anybody would try to hold you and your millions of dollars 'down'. The fact that you GOT all your money by flaunting your female sexuality really says something, doesn't it? Not to mention that the kind of people who are being held down probably aren't feeling all too 'empowered' by your song. OR if they are victims of sexism could it be because they're dressing/behaving like you? YOU won't get raped because YOU have well-payed bodyguards. Little Jenny just might because she's wearing skanky clothes and wandering around being 'proud' of herself for dressing like that. Besides, didn't the Spice Girls cover girlpower? NOT TO MENTION that I have never, ever met a guy who expected me to 'just sit and smile'. Even the education system is geared to women! Couldn't that been seen as holding men down? But whatever. I'm dissapointed in that song. Christina Aguillera has an amazing talent and she normally does really, really well with her choices. And maybe it's just me and the people I know. Maybe we're the only ones that haven't been exposed to sexism on anything more than a small scale (if anyone out there has and feels empowered by her song- Good for you!) in the whole world. I don't know. But that's my opinion there.

Always be there
Appleton
Truthfully I really loved this song when it first came out. Then z started playing it every 30 minutes. Now Ihate it. It's a sappy, pity me song about random things. It's easy to sing, because Appleton only use a limited range (if i can hit it, anybody can) which made it fun. NOW it's over. Boring. Release another single or something. It's a nice sentiment - boring song. SO. GET IT OFF THE AIR. Seriously - what happened to Bon Jovi and Aerosmith? Where has all the music gone.

As a last note
All of 50cent's songs sound the same. I don't care that he thinks he's a P-I-M-P. He can do that -->it's probably not something to brag about. I mean, last time ichecked prostitution wasn't considered 'cool' except by sorely misinformed 14 year olds who grew up with Pretty Woman. Whoopie. You can cash in on the maleable minds of America/Canada. The funny thing is that there are very few artists who actually know WHY and HOW they're doing so well. Like Eminem. While i don't particularily like a lot of the message he's giving I can appreciate that he's highly intelligent and KNOWS what he's doing. Smart Guy.

One more, actually....
Kill Bill was just a Rotten Movie. WAY to violent. Hey, Rabbit? Apperantly we missed the part where Blood came out of someone's eyes. Too bad,eh?
