A Quickie

I figured I'd better update seeing how its been a while. Just a quick one though I'm dropping.
I spent the day cleaning today, so I'm about to hop in the shower then lie down for the rest of the evening and enjoy the rest of my day off. Back to work tomorrow though, but I'm off again on Saturday. That's two Saturday's in a row. How lucky is that. If I wanted them off I probably wouldn't get them. I've asked for Sunday the 10th off so that I can go out and party with the girls, enlight of Natasha's birthday.
I never did make it to Charlette's post grad party that her mom had for her. By the time I got off work I was just too tired and in too much pain. I had to work Sunday gone, and missed Kim's baby shower. Sheldon came to meet me after work on Sunday, then he and I went down to Kim's to drop off her present. When we got there we had pizza, garlic fingers, all kinds of deserts, and we looked at a lot of pictures that they had taken when they were in Rome, Itality, all kinds of exactic places like that. Beautiful pictures. They also showed us their nursery. What a beautiful room. They went with the Dr. Suss theme. Kim's husband, Neil and his neice painted the walls of all the characters, and the rolling hills. A verse on the wall too. It was so nice!
That's about all the news I have for now. Gotta have a shower now.
Take care everyone.

A lazy day

Seeing how it's May 2-4 weekend, you'd think that everyone is gone for the weekend. Not the case at all. This weekend at work, was the busiest time all week. Saturday, there were 5 girls working. Two wanted to go home early because they said they were sick. There was only 3 of us left to fend the store. Holy shit, by the end of the night, it looked like a tornado had passed by. We were at the store an extra hour then what was scheduled. Sunday, it was piss pouring all day. I mean real heavy, heavy, rains. Maxine and I were scheduled to come in at 9. We figured it to be slow all day because of all the shitty weather. WRONG!!! There were people waiting out in their cars for us to open at 12. I could understand if we had like a 'Shopping Party' on the go, or some really wicked deals, but it was just a regular day. Maxine and I had to make some big changes with the displays in the store which took us the entire day to do. Wanda only scheduled 3 of us on for Sunday. Maxine couldn't get over it. She kept saying all day, 'what was Wanda thinking?' The store closed at 5, we didn't finish cleaning until 7!!!! We had to do an extra good job because the big head haunchos from Montreal are coming on Tuesday. I hope they are there in the morning, so that by the time I get there at 12 they will be gone. I've met Isabelle and them, I think they're a bunch of jerks. Anyway, who gives a fuck what I think.
Kayla and I had plans to go to Boston Pizza with the girls last night for supper. The poor things were over there waiting for us for an hour. They kept calling the store asking what are we doing? WHAT THE FUCK DID THEY THINK WE WERE DOING???? Doing diddy dances?
Anywho, We got there 7:30. We ate and made plans for Natasha's birthday thats coming up on June 10. Charlette just graduated from MUN and her mom is having a little thing for her this Wednesday, Kim is having her baby shower next week I think, I can't remember what was on the flyer that Neil made and brought into work yesterday. Oh my, money, money, money. Going to be busy for the next little while.
Well I must go on and do laundy and have a shower. Take care everyone.

A girls night out

Friday was slow at work, so they let me go early. Big mistake. LOL. That just ment that I had time to start my drinkin' early. Hehe. I got home and got ready. I wasn't going to call Patricia until around 8:00. I wanted to see Sheldon before I left. The girls that I used to work with at Silk & Satin wanted to get together for a girls night out. Patricia had called me earlier in the week. Her and Kayla picked me up 9ish. The we went to pick up Natasha, and we were supposed to get Charlette too, but no one could get a hold of her to find out where she lives. So we trucked onto to Patricia's house. She lives out in the Goulds. Her boyfriend was playing at a bar called "Barkley's" out in Mount Pearl. After us girls were all drunked up at Patricia's house, Kayla was going to drive us out there. She was our designated driver for the evening. I had my camera, Natasha had hers, and Patricia was taking pics with her phone. She's sent me hers already, we're both waiting on Natasha. I took 24 pictures in all. She took 12. Anyway, we got to Barkley's and headed for the bar. Natasha was hit on right way by some old fucker. Patricia introduced me to the drink "Porn Star". It's delicious. And you seriously can't taste the alcohol. We sat down and the band was playing. We took pictures all night. I did some lot of dancing. I got up and started dancing by myself at one point. I remember walking out to the dance floor and I knew that I didn't have a partner with me, but there were some girls dancing already. This dude got up and danced with me. I split beer on the floor too. He was bald and old. It was funny. Later on in the night, I went outside for a smoke, and these two guys were getting into a cab. They said to me, "You should come with us." I held up my left hand, pointed at my finger and proudly said "NO THanks". They went on, and the girls were ready to go. It was going for 3:00 am. We stopped at McDonalds on the way home. I didn't feel it going down in me at all. It was swimming in too much alcohol. LOL. By the end of the night, I had about 9 maybe 10 beer, 3 Porn Stars, and one shot of Tequilla. Which I forgot how to drink. Haha. You're supposed to lick the salt, drink the drink, then suck the lemon. What I did was drink the drink, lick the salt, then suck the lemon. It was gross. But fun. That's it for now. Take care everyone.

They are gone

Melissa and her fiance, Rob left this morning. He had a doctor's appointment to go to. They said they may be back again when Rob has surgery. We had such a great time. They got in around 4:00 yesterday. Sheldon was at work until 8:00. Melissa, Rob, and I sat in the kitchen, then the livingroom, and reminiced until about 7:30. The time just flew by. We were all doing some laughing. At 7:30, I fired up the gril and we had supper 8ish. When we were done, and had it all cleaned up, we went to see a movie. We saw "Silent Hill". Very, very scary. And very grusum. I don't know how to spell that, but I'm sure you know what I'm trying to say. Just blood, and ashes everywhere, and deformed bodies. Blah it was gross. It scared the bejesus out of all of us. I shook in my seat the entire time. At one point, I guess Sheldon didn't really know what to do with himself and grabbed his jacket and pulled it over him. Haha. We were holding on to eachother like we were on a roller coaster or something. I liked it though. It was a good movie. I was talking to mom on the phone this morning, and she couldn't believe that we went to see a horror movie. I told her what me and Sheldon were like during the movie, she laughed and called us a bunch of wusses. LOL. She said if she was there she would have laughed at us. haha God love her.
It was 11:40 when we got out of the movie, we came on home out of it. Swerving from lane to lane. Melissa was very nervous driving, and couldn't keep to one lane. I thought for sure, if a police officer was watching somewhere, that we would have been pulled over for someone who looked like they had a few drinks in them because of all the lane changes. Poor thing, she had some bad stomach by the time we got back. We all went to bed. I didn't get to sleep until almost 2:00. Melissa had asked me to wake them up at 9. They left at 10. Sheldon and I are getting ready for work now. Thats it for now. Take care everyone.

Company

I've got some company coming in this week. My friend from back home, Melissa and her fiance' Rob, are coming in on Tuesday, just for the night. Rob has a doctor's appointment the next day and then they're going on home again. We're going to have a barbeque for supper then Melissa wants to go to see a movie. That will be pretty much it for that night. I have to go back to work again the next day. Sheldon has the spareroom all cleaned up and ready for company.
On Saturday, my Nanna and aunt Ella are coming in just for a few hours that day. Nanna has a parcel to drop off to me from mom. I have a few things here that I'm going to send back home with Nanna. We both gave the house a good cleaning today. I'll freshen it up again a little bit before Melissa and Rob comes.
Friday night after work, my friend, Patricia, from Silk where I used to work, has got a plan for all us girls from Silk to get together and have a girls night out. Patricia lives out in the Goulds. Her boyfriend is playing a gig in Mount Pearl. When I get off work Friday night shes going to pick up me, Natasha, and Charlette, and we're all going out to her place for the night. We're going to all share a cab to Mount Pearl. She says that it will only be about 2 or 3 dollars between us, which is fine. That should defenitely be an adventure all in itself. God only knows who I may run into out there. No one if I'm lucky. LOL
A select few know about the last time I went to a strange bar out of town and who I ran into. ;-)
My burn is soooooo much better. It's starting to turn brown now and is only a little bit sore on the edges. I've got my body coated in moisturizer again tonight.
Sheldon and I were off together today. We went to Costco and got some meats for the barbeque and he got some Robax for his back. It's still not the best! What a friggin sin! We went to the Avalon mall too, it was time to bring my ring in for a cleaning. That only took 5 minutes. While we were waiting, we were looking at ringbands for men. I have to get one for Sheldon too. I've got to start a list on things needed for the wedding. Since I had forgotten all about flowers, until last month when I was on the phone with Melissa and she mentioned flowers for her wedding. And I was like, Shit I forgot about the flowers! I also forgot about Sheldon's ring. You watch now, the minister will say it's time for the rings, and there will just be mine because I forgot Sheldons.
Mom gave me a website for a business in Grand Falls that do wedding pictures and videos and stuff. I haven't had time to have a good look at it yet, but theres loads of time for that.
While we were at the mall, we went to CD Plus and I bought a cd of Classic Rock, and Sheldon bought a DVD, The Cosby Show Season 2. We've watched some of it since we got home. I love that show. That's it for me tonight. Good night all, and take care.

And It Burns, Burns, Burns!

Well gentle Jesus, I'm burnt to a crisp! I was off yesterday and it was such a beautiful day I figured I go out and tan and just relax. I pulled out my shorts, tanktop, and turned my bra into a halter. I put the straps of me tanktop down under me arms so that I'd just be left with a halter tan. I put on the tanning oil that has sunscreen in it, waited 15 minutes before I went out. I brought out Sheldon's chair, me smokes, me cell, and a book. I was sat in the chair for about an hour and decided to make some lunch. That took almost a half hour. I sat outside and ate, then went back to my book for another half hour. There was a small breeze blowing that was rather cold to someone half dressed, as I was. I came in out of it and was checking in the mirrors all around the house to see if I had changed color. I could see a burn starting to come. I didn't really think much of it....'till later. By the time 4:00 rolled around, I was hurtin'! I put some cream on and laid down in the bed for the rest of the evening until Sheldon came home. Sheldon says that I'm as red as a tomato. We spent some time putting more cream on me and polysporin too. In the bed last night, all I could do was lie on my back. I couldn't turn on my sides or anything. The closest thing that comes to turning on my side, was turing my head to the left or the right. I was even having dreams that I was sun burned and people were trying to give me advice on how I could turn on my side while I sleep. HAHA. I had a shower today, holy shit, it was good and bad. I felt a lot better afterward though. I can feel the heat just coming off me. Last night I felt so cold, I couldn't stop shaking. Sheldon wanted to bring me to the hospital. I said they will just look at me and laugh and say why are you wasting our time. LOL I'll be ok I'm sure. I've been through worse pain before. That's it for now. Take care everyone.

Effing Crazies!!!

Every fuckin' time!! I wish I didn't look so approachable, no I just shouldn't be so damn friendly when they talk to me. I was on the bus today on me way to work. This lady who shaves her head asked me how far up does the bus go. I told her and she was pleased that it went up pretty far because she told me she was going to Wal-Mart. I turned back around in my seat and she kept talking to me. She was giving me her life story and of course I put in my two cents, Big Mistake! She walked across the parkinglot with me, and I pointed out where Wal-Mart was too and told her I had to go to work now. She told me that I was the nicest person that she's met from this city, I joked and said that it was because I wasn't from here. Then she was all like, give me your phone number, I'll call you tonight. What time do you get off work. I said 9:30. I got out a piece of paper and wrote down my name, and the wrong phone number. Like you would. Then she wanted to give me her number. Her name was Suzette. I wrote it all down. When I got into work, I was telling our stockroom manager, Helen, all about when while her and I were out behind the store having a smoke. About a half hour after I started my shift, Suzette walks in, and asks me how to get to the bus stop from here. I told her to go back to where we had just came from. Straight across the parking lot. She said ok, thank you, nice meeting you, blah, blah, blah. She didn't come back anymore today. Oh me nerves. Why me?

A Great Interview

Yesterday morning, I decided to hit the ol' Job Bank website and apply for some jobs. I haven't been applying to any in about a month or more. I lost all hope there for a while. I took my chances yesterday and found some secretary jobs and applied to them. I came across one for a medical clinic that wanted someone with 6-9 years experience, so I clicked out of it, but then I thought what's the harm. So I applied and about a half hour later I got a call back. I was so caught off guard when she called. She told me that it was on Empire Drive, across the road from the men's curling club, just past Churchill Square. I thought to myself, Churchill Square, that's near Ropewalk Lane that's too far, I'd have to take two buses, blah blah blah. I told her that I wouldn't be able to make it for 2:00. She said that she would keep my resume on file and should the other cannidates not work out she'd call me. I was off the phone with her for about 5 minutes and thought, what the fuck am I talking about!! Churchill Square is just right there. A 10 minute bus ride at most!! So I called her back and left a message saying that I could make it and for her to call me back. I called my nanna, feeling so stupid for turning down the appointment. I didn't think that she would call me back. Nanna told me, "Jenny, if it's ment to be, it will be." Not long after I spoke to Nanna, the lady did call me back. She was on her lunch break. So I hoped on the 1:40 bus, the bus driver wasn't sure where it was either. We came to the turned off where I had to walk, and he told me to keep walking straight down over the hill, don't turn off anywhere, just go straight and you'll see it. I did what he told me and sure enough I found it. There was one other girl sitting across from me who was there to be interviewed as well. Usually I feel intimidated by this, but not this time, just because I felt that I was dressed better then her. Hee hee Shockin'. Oh well. The lady who interviewed me was great, and didn't ask me any stupid questions! Which I loved. I have a good feeling about this interview and about the lady who interviewed me. She said that I should hear something this Friday or next Friday. The doctor may want a second interview just so he can see who she liked I guess. Fingers crossed!!!
Take care everyone.
