I have a fun game for today. I am tired and I don't want to think, so I think I'll just update through the day.
10:01am, it's 10 am and I still have 7 hours before I can leave here and go to Calgary.
10:02am... ok I won't be that silly about it... hee hee hee.
Anyhow last night was my roommate's birthday, so her and another one of our co-workers went out and drank a leeetle too much. She's a hungover girl today and I am just tired and feel like crap. But I think that is more because it's Friday than I have drank my face off.
We went to a non smoking pub and had yummy beer and played Texas hold'em on NTN. I think I have arrived at my pinnical of geekiness, I enjoyed the NTN!!! sigh.
Then we went to another lounge it sucked. Then we went to a dead bar and we were lazy and went in the back way and the snotty barmistress told us to come around the other way or we would be escorted out. She was such a skank about it! I thought of revenge plots all night, unfortunatly I am not very mean so all I could come up with is to charge her service charges on her account, except I could never really do that. Nor would I ever do that, but the thought was there.
We went to another yokel bar. Sigh. I was painful for me. It was all redneck rough necks and cougars. Frightening.
I mentioned in another post that the attire here is last season at it's best. Well you would have thought they were partying cause it was 1999 all over again. GAH!
soooo... fun.
I got home and I was tipsy and Adam called me, good timing by him, so we had a drunken conversation. Well I had it and I recall him laughing at me. Then I went to sleep and had a great idea for an entry, but like many of my late night great ideas it left me... oh well. Chances are it wasn't that great.
it's now 10:11 am.
10:59am
I am reading CNN and there are reader emails about the Hurricane. It's so sad. I've read some other blogs where some commentors have been really unsypathetic about all of this, some saying that there were warnings and they were told to leave, and then other commentors argued back that they may not have been able to leave because of economics and what not. Other whine that we only care about this that no one felt so strongly about the Tsunami at Christmas. Sigh, sometimes people really bother me. Then I read about how some children in Texas are giving their soda money to help. Then I realize that the whole of society isn't horrible. This is a time when I am really greatful to live in Western Canada, particularily Alberta. The worst we'll get is hail.
Then I think, soda money? Shouldn't the kids be drinking milk? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!
it's now 11:03
1:07pm, I didn't get my normal lunch hour, which means I don't get to watch Days of Our Lives.
I'm sure I will live. However I will miss Marlena kissing the dr. and I will miss the wedding shower for Sami and Chloe. Will Sami mess things up? She does have a history. Will Chole bail on Brady? She is feeling rather un-pretty. Well I guess we will just have to tune in next week....
it's now 1:09pm
3:45pm, I want to go home... I have 1:15 hours left, yay. I had a child pee on one of my chairs in my office, that makes for good water cooler fodder...
I'm excited for my drive to Calgary, I have a book on tape and I have it all ready to go in my car.
it's not 3:46pm
It's 4:56pm, I get to leave shortly, Fridays are painful the way they drag on. I am so thankful for the long weekend. I guess I am even more thankful that I am in a land locked province. I have read a lot today about the hurricane. It saddens me. I want to help, and I don't like the idea that the US is the richest country and they don't need our help. Rich or not, there are people hurt. We should help, just like we should help any hurting person, regardless of wealth or not. I know I am being idealistic, but I am.
it's home time.
have a nice day.
