  • Priorities

    Last week, as we were heading home from Penticton, we received an invitation from CB about a possible over night stay in Whistler. I was already adamant from the get-go due to financial issues though I had wanted to come. As the week progressed, it was basically assumed that I was going, however, I received a last minute call from work which I haven't attended since May, not by my own choice but theirs. Seeing as I have things I needed to pay for, I decided that instead of going to Whistler-- which I really can't afford-- that I would work instead.

    I had mentioned in my last post that I made arrangements to possibly leave work early, which was actually granted, however at 5AM, CB  sent a seemingly commanding text saying that they are leaving around the original time they planned and that I have to get off work earlier that early arrangements I made. This is just impossible, so even though I was already packed I had to decline. The funny thing is, they didn't leave until later and I could have still made it.

     

    Oh well, there's always next time...

    Like I said, I went to work. It felt strange, maybe its from the lack of sleep, or maybe from not being there for so many months, but I just felt lethargic and unsure. It just didn't feel like the routine work it used to, you see I have been working there on and off for the past....3-4 years. A few of things were new (kind of ); pictured above is what 10, 000$  looks like *gulp (we have 3 of these at work). And this--->shocked was how I looked like when I was informed that I have to be extra careful and ask for assistance with this particular equipment since they'd previously broken one due to being misinformed. Needles to say, I tried to stay as far away from it as I can.

    The other thing that was semi-new, is a coworker who left last year, had come back. It was a pleasant surprise seeing as I didn't really see her when she left. It's funny how she looked at me carefully, not knowing what it is exactly that is different, but making a general comment about how I "grew up".  You see, she has been there ever since I can remember, hence she witnessed my awkward green-haired, pimple ridden phase etc.

    The last thing is that they've finally got the extraction specialist set up, so this is what I had to clean the whole day:

    The perks of my job.

    Also, very weird speculations occurred that day, I was either pregnant, had parkinson's/trauma, or stressed. It all came about when I asked one of the dentist to please explain why I had been producing excess saliva to the point where I would choke on my own spit. He found it interesting, and though I had forgotten about it, little did I know he was googling for answers on his spare time. Once he found the first possible answer, he called me over not wanting to tell me what it was for, and only told me to look at the computer screen. I immediately stammered a very nervous/embarrassed "no". Though it is flattering that one would consider that that was even a possibility for me. See, for that to happen I would need to be having a very sexy time with someone, and for that, I would need someone to have sexy time with.

    Maybe I should have just gone along and proceeded with my plan of "accidentally" dropping these...

    ....condoms MF got me as a decoy to make people think that I get some winky. Ohh, the exciting life I lead

    My evening consisted of multiple orgies, drugs, and hard core partying, taking Aso for a very nice evening walk. I think I shall miss cool summer evenings such as this.

    Sunday evening I had dinner with MF, AA and KL (whom I haven't seen in a while). 

    MF and I then got recruited to help AA clean her room she's trying to rearrange. I think once we got there and started picking up random stuff, which she hold private/embarrassing, she immediately regretted having us over. At one point, she literally jumped over her bed to the other side of the bedroom to get at a notebook MF was holding. It was quite a sight.

    Towards the end of the night, we sampled AA's Chardonnay which she purchased during our Penticton trip. I don't think I will ever be sophisticated enough for such grown up drinks.

    Last night I spent the night callopsing Aso since I won't be able to do so for about a week. It's sad and I feel bad for him. I'm going to miss him so much bummed. I really wish he could come and that we could bring him along.

    I just finished packing a couple of minutes ago and had this for pre-breakfast. It's so YUM! Now I shall get ready for the road.
