Hola!

This weekend was fun. I watched a straight 8 hours of chinese soap opera on Friday nite after work and Saturday I took Matt out for a birthday lunch. The sushi was okay- but definitely sticking to Ajisai. It's the best (at least for lunch). Went to the Arms in Unionville afterwards and it was a rowdy, rowdy time. Matthew Rock drunk is some really good entertainment. He's just sooo loud. lol. Got home really late but managed to get up and do laundry, went to the gym for a bit... but it was CRAZY cold outside. I want a new winter jacket that's actually warm but it seems like such a waste to get it now... it's halfway thru winter. NEways... this week will be fast. Work Mon-Wed and then new work Friday. It's gonna be interesting. I hope it works out to my advantage. Yayyy laundry and ironing. I need to go and shop again.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Help. Ok........ made a decision (for those who don't know you will soon). Just let me tell you when I'm comfortable with everything and all the dust has settled... for now...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What's normal?

Is life back to the way it should be? I'm confused. lol. It's been a very busy December and I can't see it slowing down for January eitheR! I think I need to take myself out of party mode. I can't possibly have anything else to celebrate........ can I???

I'm back at work. Nothing new here, really. Yeah, seriously nothing is new here. I just sat here thinking about it for a good couple mins.

Well, I guess I could start off w/ New Year's. It was good- Jess/Dani/Michelle were missing so it was a tad... TAD weird. Some ppl I usually don't spend new year's with was there too, but I guess that's what happens when everyone's busy and away in school/travelling. I miss my crew. We were at Fez Batiq- cheapest new year's ever. I think I spent about $53 in total. That includes cab, predrinking, ticket for getting in and drinks at the bar. Good times!

I forgot to write about my potluck (Jess reminded me)- it was like, 2 weeks ago! I had a lot of ppl over at my house and we had SO MUCH food. It was ridiculous! But it seemed like everyone was happily fed, and afterwards, happily drunk. lol. This is what get togethers should be like. I was drunk off a whole bottle of Amaretto- and I didn't pass out or puke. I was just very very happy. I think you all should be proud of my new tolerance. Though I can't say I'm too impressed w/ it b/c it's getting more expensive and I like my money in my pocket :P I had a turkey dinner at home w/ the fam, it was a gigantic turkey and it didn't taste AS good, but meh. Went to Matt's for a get together one day, Karaoke'd w/ Nat and some others another nite and went home at 3 hammered and made it to work the next day w/ a gigantic hangover. Thank goodness mom and dad weren't around to see all this. Had dinner at Jess' house one day w/ her fam (turkey) and it was really really good! I loved it, and getting some alone time w/ Jess was awesome. I sometimes wonder if Eric is really around b/c honestly, I haven't seen him for about... well, a couple weeks. It seems like a long time... just b/c so much has happened in btwn, I guess. Also went shopping- it was alright, nothing huge. I should've gone shopping in the states but I didn't take time off, so that would've been hard. Wish I had the chance though, everyone who went told me how cheap and amazing it was!

NEways, back to workie. Hope you're all having a good week.

OH YEA! HAPPY 2007!!!!!!!!!
