Wow..this lasted long, eh?

So…I have not wrote on here in forever. Sorry to the two people (Jill and David) who actually read this any amount.  So…let’s try to catch you all up to speed shall we?

• Andy came back from Toronto. Language barrier was causing one too many problems. He is now working here.
• Went to Newfoundland. Went zip lining. It was amazing
• Nicole is in university in Newfoundland and I miss her
• Andy and I got engaged
• I am still working at Tim’s
• I am still living at home
• Went to see the Australian Pink Floyd show, which was AMAZING!!!
• Made a resolution to blog at least three times a week
• Still not smoking
• Bought a nintendo DS…am currently addicted to Harvest Moon for this system…
• Saw Twilight 3 times in theatre…STELLAR!!

And that is about it boys and girls. I promise to write more. I really, really do. Seriously. Love you <3

I wrote a goodbye note in lipstick on your arm…

So…today is Andy’s first whole day gone L Wait, did I tell you guys? He got accepted to a theatre program at a college to Montreal and headed off into the great unknown yesterday morning. As much as I miss him already, I am so very proud of him. He is getting to do what he wants to do with his life. However…I imagine this blog, which was never very emo to start with, will become much more emo now that my second half is gone away for the next several months L

 

Speaking of emo *lol* I bought a bunch of new TNBC stuff at the EX last night!! Got a tank top, necklace, wallet, belt and purse! Hazaa! However…I wasn’t at work cause I felt sick yesterday…but I slept for awhile and felt better and thought I could handle a few rides in the evening…bad choice. I am home again today because I feel even worse. However…I did get to spend some time with my biggest fan *lol* David!!! Who, luckily, is as terrified of heights as I am! Maybe even more afraid then I am! He also made en epic comment about mauling a hobo/homeless person that will go down in quote history!

 

Oh! Have you all heard? There is a Special Edition 2 disc DVD of TNBC coming out at the end of the month!!!!  And speaking of AMAZING movies, I encourage you all to see Tropic Thunder. Go right this very moment. Get up from your computer, leave work or home or wherever you are, drive to your closet theatre and watch Tropic Thunder. I have never laughed so hard at a movie in my whole life. You should see Robert Downey Jr. as a black man. Wow. He is even hotter than he normally is!!!! Jack Black was funny as hell and a surprise role by Tom Cruise made me hate him a little less…which is a huge accomplishment!

 

However…off I go, boys and girls. I need to have a shower and start packing for Newfoundland…Did I tell you that? Nicole (my little sis) is headed off to Newfoundland for University next week! Everyone is leaving me L God…where did I put that razor blade…

Why so serious??

So, tomorrow night I am going to see The Dark Knight for the third, I repeat: THIRD time in theatres. I have NEVER paid to see a movie three times at the theatre! Not even Lord of the Rings!! All of you who know me know how much I love Lord of the Rings, so you must realize how fucking EPIC this movie must be for me to spend the money to see it THREE times!! The only ones that have come close are Dead Man’s Chest, At World’s End and Prisoner of Azkaban…which I saw twice each while in theatres.

So…this has been my first full week of not having the patch on…and I must say, it’s been a little difficult. I don’t feel the urge to smoke, but I have been really moody and emotional…and a real bitch towards Andy most of the time. I really appreciate that he is putting up with this, cause he really doesn’t deserve it. He’s a pretty amazing guy. He means the world to me <3

I spent this last Saturday down in Hali for the Gay Pride Parade. It was pretty fucking awesome. I have never been so proud to have gay friends! *lol* Five of us went down, and it was a blast. The trip to the mall after was a little disappointing, but David did get a most impressive TNBC hoodie which I shall probably kill him over…just so I can take it. It was a little too rich for my blood…but pretty much the best thing I have ever laid eyes upon.

Well…that’s really it for now…my life isn’t really that exciting…I’m gonna need to start making up crap to blog about! Night boys and girls!

If the hobbits could make it out of the Shire…

“If the hobbits could make it out of the Shire, you can make it out of Bass River!” That epic quote is from none other than Jill (Clever Cookie, respectively *lol*). It was spoken to me on one of the many long bus rides home in high school. It actually has always stuck with me…a little piece of encouragement to get through those rough spots…What made me think of this? She commented on my lack of blogging and I thought, ‘Oh no! Better not let Jill down!” *lol* So here I am, writing once again…and boring the hell out of all my fans…meaning David, of course

So…I decided what to spend my quit smoking money on! *drum roll* an iPod!! Woot! However…it is refurbished and will probably not work, thus being a huge waste of money :S Better than smoking though!!

I have Thursday and Friday off this week…can’t effing wait!!! I’m pretty sure I will spend the whole two days playing Final Fantasy (a rekindled obsession), and Andy is coming out this weekend <3 Can’t wait!

Ugh. I had to be in at work for six this morning and it almost killed me! Yes, I am well aware that many people get up and go to work, but I am not those people. I hated it. I came home, showered and crashed on the couch for an hour or so…until Andy called and woke me up. However, I deserve it, since I accidentally woke him up at 5 this morning…my bad Love you! *lol*

However…I really haven’t got anything else…I’ll try to update you more on my boring life though!! Night, boys and girls!

We can live like Jack and Sally if we want

I really must tell you first up that the title of this entry really does not pertain to the entry at all…it’s just a song that has been playing over and over in my head since prom night (not MYprom night – but CEC prom night). I have pretty much fallen in love with this song…I think in a bizarre way this may be mine and Andy’s song…I’m not sure yet. I need to mention it to him.

So, even though my sister was very reminiscent of Bella from “Twilight” on her prom night (she was on crutches, but still beautiful) she had a pretty amazing time. Graduation was last night…her and Andy both got awards and are now ready to take that next big step into the future. I am so proud of them both and know they will be amazing in whatever they go on to do in the future. May even see them together on Broadway one day…wouldn’t that be incredible?

Tonight makes FOUR weeks of not smoking, boys and girls! Are you all as excited as I am? I move down to step 2 in my patches tomorrow as well, so that’s pretty cool.

I am also trying to figured out what to with my hair :S I’m going to get it done with some of my “quit smoking” money. I want it to be as emo as possible *lol* I will probably look like an idiot, but it’s just hair, right? It’ll grow back.

*sigh* Andy is gone for the night and even though I wouldn’t have got to see him anyway, I really miss him I think it’s just cause he is even further away than usual…

Well…I suppose that’s it for tonight, really. Don’t really have a whole lot to talk about…so, if I can think of anything else interesting, I will come back to edit Have a good evening!

Only dust…and a plaque…that reads here lies poor, old Jack

So, now that I know someone actually DOES read this (thanks David-love you!), I figured I should probably post again…

So, tomorrow makes THREE WEEKS of not smoking, boys and girls! (And by boys and girls, I mean just David). I’m still feeling pretty good too. However…the cravings seem worse now then when I first quit…which kinda bugs me. However, instead of gaining weight like most people do, I seem to be losing weight…not sure what’s going on there, but I ma certainly not going to complain! Tuesday also made 1 month for Andy and I, which is pretty sweet too. He’s an amazing guy…I don’t even have the words to begin to explain how awesome he is.

Back to the smoking, I have been setting aside the $15 a week I would normally spend on smokes, and am going to buy myself something awesome! Side note: It has actually been more expensive for me to quit than to keep smoking :S How’s that for incentive? Anyway, that’s not my point…my point is I was going to take the money I am putting aside and get my hair cut/dyed, but now I’m thinking I may just buy something freakin’ awesome off eBay!!! I was checking it out tonight and found some AWESOME Nightmare Before Christmas stuff…and I want a Lord if the Rings t-shirt with every fibre of my being…I’ll make sure to let you guys (David) know what I bought

On the Lord of the Rings note, I have been getting back into it more again, which is making me quite happy, and also making me miss the good ole’ days a little too…You know, of being a LotR fangirl…not sleeping for two weeks in advance cause the movie is coming out…going to the first showings…making costumes…learning Tengwar…the good ole’ days. I’m actually getting serious about the learning Elvish right now…I’ve been spending a lot of time on some really good websites and I think I am improving quite a bit on my pronunciation…my god…I’m a tool :S Like, of epic proportions…

So, before I get off on a big Ringer rant, I shall go…if I don’t, this will dissolve completely into me droning on about hobbits, dragons, ents and pipe weed…So, I take my leave…namarie

Emo kids go to prom?

Okay, so tonight is prom night at the junior high on my street. I know quite a few of the kids, and my niece was attending, so Mom, Nicole and I went over to look at the dresses and what not. Holy freaking god, I couldn’t even wrap my mind around the amount  of “emo” kids that were there! I thought “doesn’t this go against all that anti-institution stuff they all seem to be into??” However, I must admit, the emo girls did have the coolest outfits. Nicole knew one of these girls, and I must say I was quite impressed by her prom outfit. He even had a freakin’ cape on! A cape! Not to mention the Jack Skellington earrings she had on…which of course got us both off onto a tangent about how much we love TNBC and comparing all of our various merchandise…

*Sigh* Oh, how I miss junior high! Well…maybe not…but I really do miss high school! I also wish I had of made a bigger deal out of my grade 12 prom, you know? I mean, it was alright…but my after-prom party was way better than the actual prom…My date sucked, I barley danced cause no one in my little circle wanted to, and I wish I had of spent more time on my dress and stuff. My hair was amazing though… I just regret not doing it better…

I kinda had a chance for a do-over…Andy told me we would go to prom if I wanted to, but I know he really doesn’t want to, so I’m not going to force him. He wants to spend that night with me anyhow, and I’m sure we will have a way more amazing time than we ever would at the prom. I do wish I could go though, cause I am pretty sure Nicole and I would have a blast, but I’m sure Andy and I will find something incredible to do.

Dear god, I am so glad I have this weekend off!! And I have plans!!!! How bizarre is that for me? Andy is coming out, and The Boy wants us all to stay out in the camper…even though I will freeze…and even though the mother-effin’ June Bugs are out >.> Saturday I am going back in Town with Andy, and against my better judgement, we are going to see a horror movie *lol* Followed by drinking, apparently :S I can see me being very tired and possibly hung-over come Sunday morning…

However, I think I have bored you all enough for another night…does anybody even read this freakin’ thing? I have my doubts…apparently my dreams of becoming an internet sensation have been dashed *goes and cries in a corner*

I knew the bride when she used to Rock ‘n’ roll

Well, wish you guys had of been there to see me all dolled up, because it doesn’t happen very often! I imagine either Mom or Nicole will have pics up on Facebook soon, and you guys can go check it out. It was a beautiful wedding, and my cousin Jenn (the bride) was stunning. I don’t think I have ever saw her look so beautiful, and I don’t think I have ever witnessed two people who are so in love. Jeff (the groom) never took his eyes off of her once during the whole ceremony.

Andy had an audition in Halifax on Saturday morning (which went well, by the by) so he missed the ceremony, but he was there for the reception and the dance. If any of you know Andy, you know the boy can dance. There was several times the whole damn hall was applauding for my baby!

The dance was awesome, and I actually got up and danced a bit! Well, I danced more as I drank more, but that is to be expected *lol* Had a little more to drink than I usually do, but it was all in good fun. Think maybe Andy had a little much, but he survived the night I barely did however. *Someone* was cold, so I needed to pile some extra blankets on…I woke up and the room was about 800 degrees and I could barely breathe.

On a completely unrealated note, I plan on getting emo hair at some point in the near future…Not quite sure how short, or how emo, I am going to go with it yet. I found this lovely little website (www.emobucket.com) that has tonnes of pictures of emo haircuts, and lots of funny avatars. It’s a pretty awesome website, really. If you are emo, go check it out. Hell, even if you’re not emo go check it out.

Not sure when my little emo obsession developed…I used to make fun of the emo kids along with everyone else. Not sure what changed. I think David  may have helped take me over to the Emo Side…he is pretty much the sweetest little emo boy I know. Now, don’t be mistaken. I am not emo myself. I know this because I do jump around when I go to shows. I just really like the hair, clothes and music…not so much the lifestyle *lol*  I’m pretty sure I’ll get beat up when I get my hair cut, because then people will be calling me a poser and what not. Oh well. I can deal with that…and, if I can’t, I’ll be in the bathroom with my razor…

Now, for your viewing pleasure, the only picture in existence of Andy and I. (Crystal – you can see part of my dress, will be more pics on Facebook at some point). Enjoy!

Can’t You See

So, just got back from seeing Matt Minglewood in concert for the SECOND time! I am so crazy pumped right now! The show was at the Marigold Centre, and it was fairly intimate with great music and lots of laughs. You want to see a man really live and breathe his music, go check out Matt Minglewood next time he is in your town. I don’t think I have ever heard a guitar sound as good as when he plays it. I also got myself an autographed CD

Today was Camp Day at work, and was sadly uneventful. I figured we would be crazy busy or that we would have something cool going on at the store. Alas, no dice…it was just another day in paradise *shoots self in face*

I also take this time to publicly apologize to Andy for being such a douche *lol* I only harass you because Mom harasses me! I swear! Also, I don’t “put up” with you, or the hassle you refer to yourself as being. Things in my life have been a lot brighter since you have been in it and I’m pretty sure you are going to be stuck with me a long, long time. If you feel differently, well…keep it to yourself…cause I know where you sleep >.> *lol*

So, 2 more days until my second weekend off in a row, and I’m pretty stoked. My cousin Jenn’s wedding is on Saturday, which means family and food *lol* It also means wearing a dress and high heels and possibly putting on a little make-up. I’ll be sure to get pictures, because no one will believe I ever did such a thing…Crystal especially!

Also, would just like to tell David, my favorite emo kid, that I miss him something fierce and we have to hang out real soon. After seeing the sub-title of this bog, he asked if he could be my little emo boy…which I think was his way of saying he wanted to be inside of me…can’t be sure though…

However, off to bed! Actually…off to book, which is a really good book, actually. “Glass” by…I think it is Ellen Hopkins, but I will look into it. You all should read it. But read “Crank” first. Shall be sure to include a review once I am finished…anyways, sweet dreams, boys and girls!

Three Day Hump?

Okay, other people actually watched the movie “Super Size, right? Well, I recall the guy in it saying that no matter what you are trying to do, be it quit smoking, or in his case gorge himself to death, you just need to get over the “Three Day Hump” and everything is sunshine and daisies after that.

Well, this will be my third, I repeat, THIRD day of not smoking. Surprisingly, I am not finding it all that difficult. I think the cigarettes are just trying to lull me into a false sense of security before they try and make another attack >.> Well…I got several months in the last time I quit, and that was without any help. This time I’m using the patch, and crazy dreams and slight chest pain aside, it seems to be doing the trick. So, keep your fingers crossed for me, boys and girls, I just may do it this time!

I imagine it is not hard to tell this this is my first wandering into the magical world of blogging and I am curious as to who is actually going to read this stuff. Who actually cares anyhow?

I was reading Jill’s blog earlier (www.clevercookie.wordpress.com) and her last entry literally reduced me to sobbing like the broken, little emo boy I am. (Note: I’m not actually emo or a boy…but a sad little emo boy lives inside of me).  I think we may just need to start spending some time together, Jill, my darling. We seem to be going through the same everyone is moving on and moving up and leaving you in the dust sort of feeling. Also, curse whichever black foul demons created the beast which is Writer’s Block. I have been plagued by it for the past several months and it is slowly pushing me towards a spree of axe-murders, I fear…

However, things have looked up for a me a bit in the past few weeks…my best friend moved back and one of my other best friends (Yes, I have several. Deal with it.) came home for an unexpected visit. Also, I am completely head-over-feet for that blonde cyclone of  energy which is my newly acquired boyfriend. Takes a powerful force to drag my eyes away from Lumiere during a BatB performance, but Andy somehow managed. Smitten with the side-kick who stole the show, and as a result, stole my heart.

Ugh. I’m horrified I allowed myself to get all mushy! It’s that damn emo kid again!!! So, before I digress any further from whatever the hell my original point was (or I have to kill myself for getting all warm and fuzzy), I shall take my leave. Jill – I don’t live far away, and I almost never leave my house. We should get together and you can teach me the ropes of this blogging thing
