'Tis the Season to Over Indulge!

And did I ever! I tell ya! I over spent, I over ate and I over slept! It was beautiful! My mommy flew up from Kenora to finish off some of her shopping and then we drove back down together on Friday night. I got some stuff for the girls and for wrapping and stuff like that. Then I went to buy my Aunt's slippers and the debit came back NSF. Ooops! I was doing so well. Ahh well what else is new! So mom paid for gas to get us to Kenora. Sweet huh? We went for lunch with my buddy from volleyball and exchanged Christmas gifts and cards. He gave me 2 more tapestries from Africa. They are so nice. I am gonna frame them and hang them on a wall sometime soon! We went to Joey's for lunch and it was awful! It started off ok except that my buddy was late. But hey traffic was a bitch everywhere that day! Then our server was a bit annoying, everytime we ordered something he gave the description that was in the menu that we had already read which was why we were opting for that item. Then we ordered some appetizers, we had hummus and pita with other toppings and it was great. My friend ordered ginger beef and it was good. So we ordered our main dishes with another long and annoying explanation of what we were ordering. It took a long long time for the food to come out. My mom ordered a beef dip and my buddy had a club house and I had a quesadilla. They brought out my mom's and my buddy's food first. And it was a good five minutes before I got mine. Now if anything should have come out first it should have been the quesadilla cause it's so easy to make. That was weird. Then it turns out that both the other dishes were cold. So it seemed like maybe the guy forgot to order mine and he waited for mine to be done before he brought out the other two dishes. Well that cooled off everything. My buddy sent his back and even his fries were soggy. So they said they would re-make his lunch. My mom's was cold but it's the sort of meal that if it's cool it's still edible. So my buddy's "new" meal comes out and it's just been reheated. The cheese is melted now and so is the lettuce. He just took the chicken out of the bun and ate it. Then the manager came over and he asked if everything was alright and my buddy told him everything, it was kinda cool to see him step up like that. I don't think I have ever seen him do that. So they comped my mom's and buddy's meals and we told the manager that we were kind of in a hurry so we were expecting our check right away but we waited another 15 minutes for the check. It wasn't the greatest experience. Ahh well, then we said our goodbyes, went back to my apartment to get the stuff we bought the night before and loaded up Delilah! That's my cars new name. It's a good skanky name. And she's a red car so I needed a whore-like name for her! Anyways we got on the road after I said goodbye to Mike and got home later that night to Kenora. There are other stories before the Christmas break, but they all have to do with vomiting so I will save the Norovirus fun for another time (Damn you Zenon!) Saturday was a pretty boring day, my mom and I played this stupid computer game for like 8 straight hours and then I made my famous chicken and linguine in a white wine sauce for supper and then we watched "The Devil Wears Prada" and played the game again. That movie is so good. Sunday was the big day. We had a big dinner at my moms and I went off my "no potato" rules for the weekend and it was sooooooooo worth it! My mommy makes the bestest mash potatoes EVER! They were so good! Every last carb! With gravy on top! Merrr (drool)! But for some reason I was in a bad mood. I still don't know why but I was just bitchy as bitchy could be. If any of my family reads this they can attest to that. Then we opened presents which made me in a better mood. I like watching the people open the presents that I bought for them. That's my favourite part of Christmas. My nieces loved the clothes I bought them and they got this neat paint set from Mike and I and I put some other stuff in the same present like hair things and barrettes like that. I got my mom the cordless phone she wanted. It even has an answering machine on it so she has no excuse not to call me back if I leave a message for her. I bought my "big" brother a PS2 game he wanted and I got my dad a couple of DVDs and socks and a shirt. I got a whole bunch of clothes which is cool, I got some silky pj's, I got a gift card to the Bay and Season 7 of Buffy! I am now complete because the boy bought me Season 1 last night at Future Shop for like $20. I am only missing like 2 discs from Season 3 that I lost somehow. I think someone threw them out on me mid spat probably. I got socks that don't fit they are miles too long! We went to my bro's the next day to celebrate with my dad over a early afternoon brunch type of thing. We had cold cuts and cheese and crackers and stuff like that. It was good but I was still full from breakfast. A holiday tradition is steak and eggs Christmas morning with my mom. And we have Arctic Mist. It's yummy! Basically it's O.J. and 7 UP with vodka and blended so it's all frothy! So good! Nothing like starting your day with alcohol! Then it was all relaxing except when my mom would swear like a sailor at the computer game! Kinda funny! She taught me all the good swear words. I think I learned a few new ones this weekend. I went and saw my friends new house on the way back to Winnipeg. Her and her hubby (who are expecting in the spring) bought a house on Redditt Road and it's really nice. A good first house! They can fix it up for cheap and sell it for more. It has a huge basement! A great big deck on the front. Lucky kids! then back I came and went over the the "in-laws" and I got more gifts which was unexpected. I got some really nice slippers and some really good smelling shower gel and chocolates! And then Linda got me this really beautiful Lancome Hypnose perfume set. It a wonderful scent too! I love it. I think I found my signature scent, I got some lotion with it and I am wearing it right now and I smell so pretty! I missed all the drama too while I was in Kenora. The sycophant across the hall went bonkers and freaked out on Mike, Jay and Linda on the busiest day of the year at the store. It started with her calling Mike at like 9AM on saturday just to talk. Mike has been sick for the last week with the flu and hasn't been sleeping well, so this was the first day he got to sleep without interruption from me or the cats and she wakes him. What a stupid bitch! Then she wants him to basically do some Christmas shopping for him. Just go to WalMart and pick up some stuff for a present for a friend of a friend. Mike's been dizzy and vomiting for 3 days, so he said no and hung up on her. She never does anything just to talk, there's always strings attached with this psycho. And Mike can't watch baby so she can walk her ass the 5 minutes to WalMart cause we don't want baby to get sick. So she phoned Jay at work like 12 times and freaked out and said she hated Mike, he is so selfish blah blah blah. Jay's like I can't deal with this it's too busy here right now. Then she calls and talks to Linda and says the same thing except now that she isn't coming over for Christmas and neither is the baby. I thought you selfish fuckin bitch! If there is one person who has done more for her then Linda has I would be shocked and you are going to punish the one person who does everything for you by not letting her see her grandson for Christmas. Such a bitch just cause she can't have her way! I mean really-GROW UP! Spoiled little brat! Mike even said his mom was so mad she called Laura names when she got off the phone with her. I swear if I was there when all of this happened I would have beaten the shit out of her. Ungrateful snot! I was so mad, I still am! I mean Linda has basically raised that kid. Laura hasn't done anything. I mean she forces the kid to sleep 8 times a day so she can sleep all the time, and then when someone else is watching them she demands that they keep the baby awake while they have them, so in reality the people that are watching the baby are doing all the actual parenting work. I mean if that kid wasn't cute I bet Laura wouldn't pay any attention to him at all. The only time she even pays attention to him is if someone is saying how cute the baby is because that's a reaffirmation at that she is cute. The chick drives me insane! But to go after Mike's mom just frosts my nerves. I love that woman, she is one of the most patient and sweet people on the planet Earth and she didn't deserve to have to deal with her at all! Not after everything she does for Logan. You should never bite the hand that feeds you. She hasn't dared to knock on our door since this bullshit started either Mike said. I accidentally took her Christmas present with me to Kenora because I got it and left it in my purse. Mike wasn't going to give it to her he was so mad. But then she realized she would be alone probably because none of her friends can stand to have her over, and brought baby over for Christmas dinner and stayed herself. So she got her food and her presents. Such a selfish spoiled brat! And they all pretended to be nice to her cause if they don't she threatens to take the kid and not let them see him and they love that little boy. You cant help it he's so damned cute! Jay moved out again! Packed his clothes that night and took some important stuff and left. He should have taken the baby with him. Let her deal with trying to get the baby back. That poor kid, I fell so bad for him cause he has a psycho for a mother. He's never going to be number one in her life cause she is her own number one. So sad. Well I got a little ranty at the end here. And it is the end I am tired and need to go home from work now! Yay! These 3 day work weeks are a bitch I tell ya! I think the sponsor word for this blog entry should be bitch! I would like to take this time to thank our sponsor - BITCH for this entry. Thanks BITCH! That's it that's all!
J-BOMB OUT!

Nothing Overly Exciting...

Hey all! Just thought I would catch you all up about the goings on in my life. Hahaha! There really isn't much to tell. Last week we had our Client Christmas Party next door. It was kinda blah this year. The location was better because it had more room and all but the actually party part of it sucked. I was bored to tears the whole night. The clients that came up were cool, bought it was mostly my fellow employees that annoyed me. We for some bizarre reason let the entire phone room supervisor staff come along. Big mistake! They were supposed to mingle with the guests, they only mingled with eachother. Morons! And they drank to excess. Then some of the new people decided it was time to try and hook up with people. And the person that wanted to hook up with them got mad that they weren't getting any attention. It was all very high schoolish. Then all the good looking clients left by like 7pm. Well that kind of blows my Christmas spirit right there. I dunno it just paled in comparison to last year which was a riot! And we missed a couple of people (wink wink). Then the next day I had my volleyball Christmas party. And that was a good time! We all brought food, and we regifted presents and played a dvd game. Then as the last few of us were leaving Jen discovered her car keys were missing. It turns out they fell into Rom's baby bag somehow and they were on their way to East St Paul. Fun!!! So I drove her to a half way point where Rom brought us the keys and then we went back to Marv's (the house where the party was at) and gathered up her kids and she went home. It was kind of funny. Then we played ball on sunday and we just leveled the other team. It was like playing a bunch of 10 year olds. So we decided to attempt some plays. And it worked out ok. We had fun nonetheless. This week has been ok I guess. Mike went back to work after his knee surgery on Monday. And it only lasted 1 day because from what I hear he stressed himself out and they sent him home. So he was in a "super" mood the rest of this week. Same drama every year. It's getting tiresome. I play my last league night this sunday before the holiday break. I plan on going home on friday the 23rd after work. My mom might be up so I will have some company on the way home. Plus she will be in my car so I get to rule the music! HAHAHA! I'm such a "trip commander". Inside joke! (wink) Well it's just about quitting time here so I am gonna go and clean up some stuff and head home. See ya all later. I probably won't update again before the holidays so

Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year. May the best of 2006 be the worst of 2007! (figure it out!!)

J-BOMB OUT!
