Happy Halloween

October 31st, 2003 @ 6:49 pm

I’m stuck in the midst of a crazy work week. I just finished working from 9pm last night till 1pm this afternoon. I get to head back at 9pm tonight till 2pm tomorrow. I ache and I am so tired I don’t think I can sleep but I am surely going to try here in 10 or 15 minutes.

I made an appointment to get Milo’s rip and tear operation done the 13th of November which just happens to correspond with my mini ‘vacation’ I have the 14th-19th off. So after dropping 200$ on the devil cat I wont be doing anything but watching him heal. I keep telling myself I am going to take one of my long weekends and go to see my sister in Fredericton but something always seems to come up or I don’t have the extra cash.

So my plans for Halloween? I’m going to bed for the next few hours and in the process sleeping through what few trick or treaters I might get. Then it’s off to work with the half dead. I really shouldn’t joke about that because there is someone on their way out at work. She hasn’t had anything much to eat in like a month. She had been living off boast and in the last weeks has pretty much stopped drinking that. The sad thing is it’s like looking at a child in Africa who is starving to death; she’s nothing but skin and bones. Her doctor had prescribed a pill that was supposed to increase her appetite but it has only had the opposite effect on her so far. We weighed her this morning when we managed to get her to have a bath; she’s down to 75 lbs. If she’s going to die wouldn’t tonight just be the perfect time? No! It wouldn’t! So I am going to cross my toes, granted the woman is one of the meanest creators ever put on this earth but it’s a terrible shame to see her withering away.

I got an incredible amount of sleep last night, woke up to a phone call to go out shopping. Off to the mall for hours of shopping. The only things I bought were lunch and a cordless phone though. Fun fun fun!

Theeeen, I get to the grocery store and as I am about to go in the door I see Raymond standing there. We chit chat, he tells me I am looking good blah blah blah. Then the conversation turns to an old friend who I haven’t talked to in 2.5 years (his wife). I had called them back in June and chatted with him for awhile. She hadn’t called me so I figure she really didn’t know what to say or she just didn’t want to talk to me. I talked to him for a moment or two saying “That it was okay; maybe I’ll call her tomorrow? Do you think she would want to talk to me?” He said “yes, I don’t think it was that. I’ll talk to her and get back to you.” So I went about my shopping explaining to Tasha the situation and as I turn my back there she is, standing there. It was like the most wonderful feeling in the world. And Raymond laughs and says “I told you she’d talk to you”. I must have looked like a kid in a candy store. I can’t explain how happy I was, to just see her again. She had given me so much in the past and been so good to Rob and I.

So we catch up and talk about various things. I told her I had a lot to tell her about the last two years of my life and Rob. You know what she says? “Yeah, Raymond told me some of it and you know something funny? I kept getting these people coming up to me and asking ‘Is Bev still with that Robert XXXXXX? The tall guy? If so you need to talk to her, he’s been doing some weird things.’ ” I just laughed and told her of the story from this past Saturday. I am wondering how many years down the road I will be hearing these stories. They just make me laugh..

She also told me that she had not called me because she wasn’t sure if I had heard some things that went on where she worked (this happens to be the place I used to work for - the place that treats its employees like shit). That another good friend of mine (then) had tried to bring the whole agency down along with her in the process. So I am curious to find out the details of that.. Because honestly I wish she had of succeeded…I’ll call her tomorrow and catch up. I so cant wait. (:

So it’s been a good day… and it should only get better. (:

Alcohoroscopes

October 27th, 2003 @ 1:48 am

Well I just got an email that I found rather amusing, till becka informed me that she had a post about it a month ago. I must have slept right through that. None the less I’m going post it anyway..

What’s your Alcohoroscopes

LEO

Drinking style
Leo likes to drink and dance — they’re often fabulous dancers, and usually pretty good drinkers as well, losing their commanding dignity and turning kittenish. Of course, they’re quite aware they’re darling — Leos will be Leos, after all. They generally know their limit, probably because they loathe losing self-control. When they get over-refreshed, expect flirting to ensue — and perhaps not with the one what brung them. But Leo’s not the type to break rules even when drunk, so just try to ignore it (try harder, Cancer) and expect a sheepish (and hung over) Lion to make it up to you the next day.

Trademark cocktails
Leos like flashy drinks, be they complicated tropical concoctions festooned with umbrellas, like a Bahama mama or the more common strawberry daiquiri or mai tai. Indeed, they often have a taste for the fruity — try a screwdriver, or add an extra cherry to the next Manhattan. Their sense of drama lends itself to a kir royale, of course.

Drinking buddies
Ben Affleck, Gillian Anderson, Bill Clinton, Monica Lewinsky, Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Debra Messing, Kevin Spacey, Martha Stewart, Andy Warhol

One More Day!
