I'm pretty excited today.... I am going home to visit for the weekend!!!! I haven't seen friends or family for a month now, and the time has gone SO quickly. Oh my god, it really has.
I have to work all day today, hopefully I can get outta work at 7 instead of 8 and that'll get me on the road by 8, and me home around 1am. Thats the plan anyway. We're gonna hope that I don't have any car trouble or anything like that.
I don't have any major plans for the weekend as of yet. Basically just going to hang out with my closest friends, go to the beach, get my eyebrows done, maybe get a haircut and pack up some stuff that I should have brought up here with me ages ago.
I'm pretty excited! Wish me a good trip!

Sore!!
I have been limping my ass around all day... it's sucked something fierce, let me tell you!
I manged to gimp up my knee last night after leaving the bar, and so I have been kinda hobbling around all day. But I've also been stiff in both my legs and I wasn't really sure why.
Then I remembered. Roller flailing.
No, not rollerblading, because that sounds like I look graceful. Roller-flailing is much much more accurate description of what I look like on rollerblades.
Matt loaned me his skates so that I could get to work in a reasonable manner. And all went well. I didn't actually fall on my face, though it came close. The stopping wasn't too bad, provided I had something to stop me... and I'm not referring to the brakes they put on these things.
But I think I used a bunch of muscles I'd forgotten exist. I'm more or less sore in every muscle between my ankles and my ass.

Stupid asshole...
I should have been writing more... but I have been kinda busy. Sorta.
Sat SUCKED. I walked out the door to go to work to find out that someone stole my bike. FUCK! I guess it's partly my fault, I didn't have it locked up (there's no where to lock a bike up outside my place and it's a huge pain in the ass to bring it in and out of my building cuz theres no where to store it really). I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself now in terms of getting to work... I'll have to get a new bike I guess.
And then today I went to get in my car to go to the grocery store only to find out that my car had been ransacked too... which I just didn't understand because I could have sworn my doors were locked... Only thing I can imagine is that my back door was unlocked from when I came home and made 2 trips into the house with my laundry. Nothing was taken, thank god. Amazingly not even my gift cards for Crappy Tire/Roots/Zellers.
Matt's loaned me his rollerblades, not sure if they will fit, but they are worth a shot. Anything to get me to work a bit faster than walking!!!
Have to talk to the landlords about getting a light put up outside because it's really dark behind my building and though I thought it was safe, clearly not the case!!!
I'm really looking forward to going home next weekend to see my friends/family.
And escaping the drama I create everywhere I go... haha

Making a mess...
I'm digging myself a hole... and I've got to get myself out before I bury myself.
If I go any further, I'm going to risk making a mess of a couple good friendships. And going further would not be true to my heart and just me not saying the appropriate words at the appropriate time.
I need a (clean) break.
But a break never happens!! I just bump along from one to the next, never finishing off one before moving along, stringing bits and pieces behind me.
I was talking today and realized that I'm a heart breaker. I fall out quickly and don't give others a chance to catch up and I move on regardless of what I've left behind.
And fuck if I didn't remember that I actually did care about one piece... and it was picked up and swept away. And I want it back....
And that clean break isn't happening because I'm still searching for that piece... and collecting other pieces in the mean time to fill the void.
And I'm a nut job because it's almost 4am and I'm vaguely writing gibberish thinking that if those involved read this they might know it's them... but if not, at least names were not used.
It's time for bed.

A Team May 24!
So this has been an interesting May 2-4. Very unlike any other but just as good.
Ange came to visit me, so it was an A Team May 24, and it was lots of fun. She got here on Sat afternoon and spent time wandering around the market while I was at work. Sat night we went out to dinner at this little sushi place just around the corner from my house and then we met up with her friend Larysa to go to Zaphods to see a band play.
The Ottawa Sentators won their game on Friday night against Buffalo, so Ottawa was a bit insane. We left Zaphod's and went to Elgin Street (Aka The Sens Mile) and marveled at the crowds of people cheering, honking their horns etc.
Ange got it in her head that she was going to go for a ride in this Honda S2000 she saw driving up and down the street and when she saw it pulled over she went running off and actually got in the car and got the guy to give her a ride. It was pretty amusing yet I probably shouldn't have let her get in a stranger's car! While she was out with the random dude we went back to Matt's house to wait.
We left Matt's, walked home and crashed. Slept in til almost noon on Sunday and then went out for breakfast at Cora's downtown. (Mmmm I love Cora's!) The service was pretty shitty though. Left there and went to the mall. We spent who knows how long there wandering around and shopping. I bought a shirt and a tshirt dress thats super cute. I probably spent way too much money though.
We were thinking of going to a party with Larysa on Sunday night but we got cozy after shopping watching movies. The farthest we made it out was to the same sushi place again for dinner. After dinner we came back to my house and ended up watching movies again until 2am.
Today we got up around 10:30, went to Cora's again for breakfast, and had shittier service than yesterday. It was pretty sucky. After breakfast we went and walked around parliament and took pictures before Ange went home.
It was a nice relaxing weekend.... pictures to follow!!!
