After 3½ years of boyfriend and I dating, I have officially met his parents and all of his two sisters (one, last summer and one tonight). I totally bailed on my climbing plans and left Kerry stranded at the climbing gym. waiting for me, precisely the exact same time supper was served. I really really need to make that up to her. But I was so afraid that boyfriend would totally not let me have another chance at meeting his parents. I always asked him “When will I meet them!” and his parents were the same way too, in fact. Huh. Anyway, so I went over to his place tonight and ate some mouth watering chicken parmigiana with them, and had a delicious chocolate mousse/cake/cheesecake for dessert. So, Kerry. I apologize to you right now. I failed to follow through with our plans. (I know she reads my website, so I’m posting it here instead of actually e-mailing her a private “I’m sorry” lol) That’s what ya gets! Hopefully I’ll get another chance to meet up with you before I head back to the ‘loo.

Before supper though, boyfriend and I were checking out stuff at Westgate, and then headed to the mall. I felt so … tall in the mall. I guess the ceilings at the malls I usually frequent in Ontario are much higher. Plus, the amount of people wearing Bench clothing totally made me never want to wear my Bench windbreaker EVER again. I guess that’s the “in” thing here in town right now. Every time we stepped onto the escalator or went into a store, at least two chicks were wearing the exact same Bench zip ups that were available at this one store lololol. Ahhhh I hate that. Living in a “small” (120,000 people isn’t exactly small. But small compared to what I’m used to – 600,000 people) city, I guess that’s what you get – rare selection of a few good things, and everyone wants it then.

Anyway. I’m totally just wasting time right now and waiting for a buddy of mine to call then i’m heading out again for teh night, visiting friends who I haven’t seen in over two years. WOAH.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!

What’dya get? Huh Huh? What did you all get from Santa Claus!?  I got a nice few things plus some moniesss…but my favorite gift of all was a mocha colored Canon SD1100is camera that I totally wanted so bad! YES. Mmmm I can’t wait until my parents are over the brutal flu they have, and then we can have a lovely Christmas turkey dinner. My flight got cancelled as you saw in my last post, so my Boyfriend and I didn’t get home until December 26th at 2AM or so. Brutal. Christmas Day for us in Ontario was relaxing and we opened a gift from one another, and then ate pizza for supper lol. It was definitely a Christmas to remember.

Last night was my first night out of the house as I only got in the night before. It was so totally random. We went to eat at some new place down off George St, and headed to a bar to wait for some friends, went to the climbing gym to meet other friends and watch a movie for the junior climbing club fundraiser, then headed back downtown, ran into my brother’s friends, headed to another bar, ran into more old friends….saw Mark Critch from This Hour Has 22 Minutes, and shook his hand and told him he was awesome. I didn’t realize that he was tall as I am (about 5’6″ or so) and he’s got super soft hands lol. ANYWAY. So random. Love it.

Stockings are my favorite thing about Christmas mornings. I think my laptop totally needs … some kind of new computer part. lol. Maybe a new fan. It keeps going WILD. It’s not sounding right, and it’s not even a very old laptop, I got it for graduation in 2006.

OKay, gotta go get dressed as everyone wants to meet me at the climbing gym this afternoon!

I LOVE YOU CHRISTMAS!

Apologies if this is mis-spelled and not making sense to you all. I’ve had like 2 hours sleep.

I am not going to be going home for Christmas. Our flight kept getting delayed by a half hour or so every few hours. So our 7:35PM flight was pushed to 1:25am and so on. At 4AM they canceled it.

People flipping out. People crying. We weren’t “First Priority” because we LIVE in Ontario, no matter how far away we had to travel. So we weren’t given accommodation and we weren’t allowed to stay in the airport. So basically they “kicked us out” and said find your own arrangements. We came home instead of deciding to sleep on benches with our luggage.

So basically I’m in debt because of this one damn snow storm

Shuttle to airport: $120
Shuttle back from airport so many hours later: $120
Christmas food to do us until Dec 27 or so: $55
I’m supposedly moving to a new apt. in January so renting a uhaul will cost me $80
Unexpected government requesting money from me, due to me filling out the 2007 form wrong (which I’m looking INTO): $280 (!!!!)

My boss and co-workers are so sweet. I was going to head into work this morning so I could save my vacation days until I’m actually… going somewhere. So my boss asked me a few questions regarding the website and some changes that needed to be done. I don’ have access from home anymore, which I told her so. Anyway since she said that she asked me some work questions… I officially WORKED today. lol Awesome!???

We got home at around 6am, and then crashed til 8am when we were on the phone with West Jet. Not sure what’s on the go yet, we’ll find out in a few hours. I decided to go get some groceries before the shops close down for a few days.

I’m effing pissed. I teared up with sadness when the cashier wished me a Merry Christmas, just as I was scrounging for food for supper tonight/tomorrow etc.

I don’t know what to say. :(  There isn’t much anyone can do right now. I will find out in a few hours if they will be putting on an “rescue flight”. Other than that, I’ll fly out Dec 27 if it isn’t already all gone from other ppl snagging it.

I’m starving. Guess I’ll go make myself a peanut butter sammich then browse the internet for some computer memory since my laptop fan is totally wailing and definitely going to die soon.

BYE!
