Bang, bang. You get Bullets

I’ve been way to crazy busy to write actual posts. This is all you get.

  • I have a freelance project due today and I swear I’ll get it finished, as much as my husband panics about me procrastinating for so long.
  • We move in six days!!
  • It’s finally really started to snow in Kamloops which makes me kind of happy and kind of annoyed. I really wish it would’ve held off until after we move. Oh well. Can’t have everything, right?
  • NINE years ago today Kyle and I started dating. We celebrated by going out for dinner at a super fabulous restaurant. I ate sablefish and Kyle had steak. We also shared crab cakes as a starter plate and he had a dessert sampler with creme brule, baklava and toffee pudding and I had star anise and pear crumble with vanilla bean gelato. OMG. So good!

  • Kyle treated me to a new winter coat! Last year I really wanted a wool coat but never got around to buying one. My past coat has been an enormous yet very warm Carhartt jacket. I really just wanted something more professional looking and less industrial. I’m pretty excited to wear it out today! The only downer is that it’s going to collect dog hair like a fool.
  • I’m finally getting my hair/bangs cut today. I’ll never go longer than three weeks without trimming my bangs ever again. I look like an emo hipster kid.
  • I have started my Christmas shopping. WHO AM I??? Never before have I started shopping in November. Never.
  • Writing this blog post is only helping my procrastination.
  • Some time in December I have an exciting announcement. I think. We’ll see! (cue dramatic music and fade away …)

Happy Friday! What’s on your list today?

Friday List Thing

My thoughts are rather scattered these days. Today, you get a list.

– Yesterday while grating cheese for my famous Heart Attack Mac n’ Cheese I had the wrong side of the cheese grater ready without noticing (I was in a rush) and used the “evil” side of the grater. And then my hand slipped and I grated my knuckle on my right pointer finger. It HURRRRRTSSSS. And now everytime I bend or even move my finger, it starts bleeding all over again. Awesome.

– Fall Slo-Pitch season has started (which I will now refer to as “Fall Ball”) and we lost our first game on Tuesday. Which is fine. We were supposed to have another game Thursday night but the other team didn’t show up so – Automatic win! And, it’s probably good that we didn’t play because my finger is killing me.

– I am going out to the bar tonight. As the DD. I know it makes me sound like an alcoholic, but going out dancing is much better when you’re drunk. But – It’s my friend’s birthday and I’m a good friend, so I’ll drive her to and fro.

– The nights in Kamloops are starting to get really cold. It’s not fair. Where did summer go?

– I have a bunch of freelance work to do and I haven’t really started it yet. Whoops. I’m a horrible procrastinator to the max.

– I just realized I could make the post text entry box for WordPress bigger. My life just got so much easier! I’m so terribly blogging impaired.

– My mom and I are going to watch The Help tomorrow afternoon. YAY YAY YAY!

– I’m a pretty boring person right now it seems.

Happy Friday! What are your weekend plans?

It’s Friday!

Blah – Late posts in the day are going to be my thing I think. I just can’t get on top of my blogging lately. Blaaaaah.

Anyway! A list/bullet thing:

  • I made my own wedding coffee table through a company online. It was SUPER easy: Download the program, upload your photos to the progam, make your book, order, and done! Well, it came in the mail yesterday and:
  • Yeah, so after crying by myself and giving Daphne a hug, I sent the company an angry email and they’re working on sending me a new book ASAP. So HOPEFULLY my *new* book will arrive soon.
  • I’ve been working in my new position for a few weeks now and it’s still going oh-so-fabulous!
  • Our Marriage Certificate finally came in the mail after it being stuck in the middle of the postal strike. Yay! Now I can finally get my name changed on all my important documents. Like my Social Insurance card, driver’s license and banking information. Woo! It’s all kind of official now!
  • I got offered do do some fill-in reporting at work. Obviously I said yes! I’m pretty excited to get my first assignment, but hopefully it’s not something ridiculously beyond my skills. We’ll see how it goes!
  • I’m having a Girl’s Night Saturday and I’m pretty excited about it. Cheesy chick-flicks and yummy food – who could ask for more?
  • Oh – and I want to thank all you lovelies who commented and gave their feedback on my passworded post the other day. My mind is pretty calmed now :)
  • I have no exciting plans this weekend other than banking, returning my recyclables and the driving range with my dad. How boring am I?
Please, tell me you have a more exciting weekend planned than I!
