Incoherent

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!

The Big Day

Jingle bell, Jingle bell, Jingle bell rock. Today’s the big day I’m going to the rock! I’m all packed and ready to fly home! I don’t know when I’ll be posting next, but I’m sure it will be sooner rather than later, since I’m bringing my laptop with me. Plus my Mom is more computer literate than I am, so the computer will be on constantly I assume. If I don’t post before Christmas Day, I want to wish everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

ho ho ho! I hope Santa will be great to you all. Party safe!

Spa day

I love treating myself to getting spa–like services. A girls body needs that every now and then. A co–worker during the summer always has freshly painted toe nails like once a week, seriously. It’s insane but the woman she goes to is incredibly cheap. So now I go to her too! She operates out of her basement and she’s a small little Asian woman with a cute little girl who speaks PERFECT English, unlike her lol. The kiddo always helps me pick out the prettiest colors. So my brows and toes are all ready to go home and show off! My guess is that they’ll be ruined as soon as I hit the climbing wall and cram my feet into the little shoes. Who cares though! :) As long as they’re pretty for a day or two!

I managed to snag some really great deals on the MAC Cosmetics website the other night. They were are offering 25% off their Holiday collection, and free shipping (even though it’s like a 10 minute bus ride away, I still like to get packages in the mail. heh!) So I picked up some stuff for my sister–in–law’s birthday. I know she doesn’t wear too much makeup or anything, but still she likes to get dolled up from time–to–time, who doesn’t, right? Plus it needs to be sent off to Ireland. That’ll be my first thing to do when I get back from my Christmas vaca, since everything takes 7-8 weeks to send over seas! So I managed to grab these three items. Booya! (Not all of them are for her, I bought them for myself too! Hip hip horray!) So anyway, I received my packages in the mail on Friday, at work of all places! I opened it up right away because it was in a HUGE box and I just thought it might have been more marketing supplies, since it didn’t say it was from MAC specifically on the box. I received the huge box right after my Boss and I exchanged Christmas presents. She’s just as bad with MAC as I am. Each time I opened the little amazing well designed packages, I passed it to her, as she drooled over it. THEN she too went online and bought 2x more stuff as I got. So her MAC package should arrive sometime this week, or next seeing as it’s the busy holiday rush.

WEEE!!!
