My exciting life

Oh wait.. my life isn't exciting at all. I am a 24 year old trapped in a 90 year old lifestyle. It's a Saturday evening and I am curled up on my couch watching My Strange Addiction and contemplating eating popcorn.

Too lazy to take my own photo.

Looks pretty delicious though, doesn't it?!

I spent the morning waiting for a man to show up to ride Dewey. He didn't show up which reminded me to inform the blogging world of my extreme hatred of when people keep me waiting. It just is SO ignorant and screams that you think your time is more important than mine. Well guess what, folks? I'm so over waiting around for you. Either be here when you say you will or else let the person waiting for you know you're going to be late. Everyone basically has a cellphone these days so you have no excuse or reason not to send a text or quick call just letting the other person know.

Do you need a giant clock to keep you on time?!

No one is chronically late. Work at being on time. People will thank you.

Seriously. Don't be so self-important to think that the person you are keeping waiting will continue to wait for you. It especially bothers me when professors are consistently late. I bothered getting to your class on time so why couldn't you? Or when professionals can't manage to keep their appointments on time or return from lunch at the appropriate moment.

When I was younger I would just let all this happen and not say anything. I had 2 good friends who, I swear to god, would wait until you were in their driveway picking them up before they bothered starting to get ready. I played their games for years because I didn't want to be dramatic. One day, after complaining for the millionth time, I just left. I waiting ten minutes and then I left. Sucks to be you. You should have been ready when I told you I would be there& then you'd still have a drive.

Oddly, it worked. And relieved a lot of my frustrations.
So are you one of those people who is constantly late? Or, like me, are you one of those people who is bothered insanely by late people?

..wait, is there some kind of in between? Do people exist who are on time who aren't bothered by people who are chronically late?!

Not againnn..

Lost another follower. Wow I must have written some pretty boring posts or something. Wah wah wahhhhhhh! Also I missed 2 whole days of posting ..I know my readers are generally very upset about that ;) So in honor of missing 2 days, I will know make it up to you with some pretty sweet photos and content.

So first off the boyfriend& I hit up the drive-in last night in his Jeep. It was actually the perfect drive-in vehicle. We took out the backseats& made a fort with blankets and pillows and curled up. We also brought along a lot of treats. Our theatre plays 2 movies a night but we had already seen the second movie (X-Men) so we only stayed for the first. We saw Mr. Popper's Penguins and it was fairly cute. Unfortunately a side effect of the movie is desperately wanting a penguin of your own.

Showing off how comfy we were!

Or pretending he was asleep so he didn't have to answer me about penguins.

It was great .. love the drive-in! Love treats. Love ice cream ..which I didn't have but am currently craving it. Instead I will eat some grapes or an apple. Such a good little foodie. Especially since I can't exercise for another day or 2. Ended up with stupid 'runner's toe'. Which basically means if I kept exercising my toenail would have gotten bloody and probably fallen off& also be a breeding ground for infection. So I figure I'll just let it heal like the internet suggests.

So aside from that nothing else too exciting is happening in my world. I have 3 photos from that photo challenge though! Hands, clouds and breakfast. Thoroughly enjoying having topics given to me. So much better than having to think of my own!

Aw. How sweet& romantic am I?

Not very in reality. But this is cute.

If you ignore how tan my boyfriend's hand is and how pasty mine is.

My backyard.

In the foggy rain.

AKA everyday on this island.

That's right, folks!

An empty bowl. I had no breakfast.

Well there we go! 4 new photos .. a quick update on my life .. and now I feel like I'm back in blogging business ;) Off to find something to do with this miserable day.

Happy March!

I meant to post last night .. and then I had to watch Easy A (ps, everyone should also watch this. So brilliantly funny and relevant ahahaha) with Mom. After that, I had to make myself supper and shower in order to get to the boyfriend's house to eat treats and watch people lose weight (Heavy) and get over addictions (Intervention). It was delightful .. but it left me forgetting to update the world on my life!! I know, the disappointment was almost unbearable. The drive over was sooo long ..I hate, hate, hate SNOW. Bright side?!

I GOT TO PLOW THIS MORNING! We got in the Jeep and really, Garret did most of the driving. I, however, moved the plow up and down via the switch! It was really fun .. and then we got tea. And also went to my house to pick up my gym clothes so that I could go to the gym with Margy after my lab. The lab consisted of going to the Pit to check VOC (volatile organic compound) levels .. wearing some PPE (personal protective equipment) .. and checking out what PPE is needed when working with certain chemicals. It was actually kind of fun. Except the part where my head was too tiny to fit any of the masks. We got to spray this delicious tasting mist into our faces to see if we could taste it .. if we could, it meant ill fitting equipment. We could. It was delicious though so we didn't really mind. Had it of been disgusting, I would have been a sadder / grosser experience.

At the gym, I pounded out 4 miles and did an ab workout. After surviving that, I headed to Orange Julius with Marg. They made my smoothie wrong AND I forgot my wallet so I had to scrounge money from Marg. Sorry, promise to pay you back tomorrow when I find my wallet! You're a real doll :) At home, I enjoyed some corn, sweet& sour chicken &mashed potatoes. Delicious. Then a chocolate chip cookie .. some Ritz with cheese .. and a milk and now water. Yum. I may have to break out the popcorn in a little bit, I'm craving snacks!

Basically, today nothing overly exciting has happened and mostly I'm exhausted and still have to pound out QPM and foodborne assignments. Wah wah wah. I am truly wishing I could nap and magically have them done when I wake up. Dream big. I'm currently watching Big Bang and being giddy because some people have randomly picked up my blog and started posting it on their pages (I can now be found in some tumblr sites .. LinkedIn .. etc etc). Thanks for finding me funny / relevant / entertaining / whatever. My boyfriend is floating around on random sites with a dinosaur ahahaha

Now, some topics of choice:
1. Joel Plaskett - let's be real. This guy rocks and has been a staple in my music for many many years. I've seen him in concert SO many times ..sheer genius. He is my favorite cruising music :) When you get to the end of my post, I may just have included a favorite song for you to listen to!

2. Charlie Sheen - Just because Mom mentioned his life isn't nearly as crazy as hers is. I'd like to do a comparison list but 2 problems: 1. I don't know anything about Sheen. 2. I don't know how to make a chart on here :( Perhaps I'll google him and photoshop one up!

3. Winter - we're getting ANOTHER storm on Thursday. This is quickly getting old. Seriously. IT IS MARCH. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ALMOST SUMMER. Why lord, why? Snow? Where are you global warming? We should all joins forces with my mom and spray some hairspray in an effort to hurry it up and make us warm!! So, on the other hand they say March either comes in like a lion and out like a lamb or the opposite. So I guess that means we can look forward to a spectacular ending .. along with a beautiful April?!

4. Horses - I miss them SO much. If anyone reading this has a horse they want to lend me, please. Let me know?! Once the spring really arrives, I will desperately require some equine interaction back into my life. Weekly, at least. Preferably? Daily. Or, puppies. If anyone has a puppy I can love, I will be glad to take on the role of crazy dog lady. Has a better ring to it than crazy cat lady anyway!

Alright, so now that we've caught up on my relatively boring past 2 days, I have a photo of the day from yesterday ..I need to take today's still :( Just thinking of everything I still have to do is making me tired. That is never a good sign.
Yesterdays photo was the sky. With some clouds in it. I have no idea what day I'm on .. I'm too tired to count. Numbers make me nauseous. I want to do a good photo some day soon, it requires some nice weather though so I can get outside and do something more than same old, same old! I also need to keep working with my light box.
Here are my clouds :)

C'est fantastique, non? Also, I'm STILL looking for people who want to play model for me. Garret is either going to get sick of me trying to take his photo, or you people are going to think I'm obsessed with posting photos of him!! I have refrained from more photos of him, but need portraits. I can do closeups and landscapes are out until it's nice! So, don't be shy. Just tell me how badly you wish you could be a model. I have photoshop and will only post gorgeous / handsome photos of you! LOL. Oh well.. doesn't hurt to beg a little.

Now, to make good on my promise for a video. I present you, Joel Plaskett. He's great!

PS Joel, when are you coming back to Cape Breton?! Let a girl know. Promise to purchase tickets and hit that up! The island misses you :)
