life is short. love never dies.

Saw Inception again last night, with the girls from my department. except one. (she had work. but she wouldn't have come anyway, since she's already seen it. i've been giving her flack for saying that, because, really!)

OMFG. Seriously.

fuck you, inception, for being so awesome. i just want to keep watching it over and over and over.

i lay partial blame on joseph gordon-levitt though. He's my new movie boyfriend. like, fml, there's just something about him being in a suit, and all bamf. and looking good. in a suit.

no. i told kepp0xy that it was probably just a fling. i'll get over him. probably. maybe not right now, because damn, the man looks good in a suit. (i might have watched some interviews of him as well. and maybe i kinda love him more for it too, because he seems like a funny guy, and laid back, and fun, and all sorts of good stuff.)

but whatever. its probably just a fling.

and now i need a totem. i might have to go shopping for one or something. alskdjfalsdkfalsdkjf.

still. whatever. inception needs to be on dvd now, so i can buy it. (if there are bloopers and commentary with the actors, i might die from joy. i dunno, just sayin).

 i just don't know anymore, you know?

about a lot of stuff. 

but whatever. my week off was good. last friday i hopped on a ferry with Bear (my car) and went to the island to see The Woman and Her Spawn (aka skullycat and Kaeda). we had a nice visit together. didn't write anything, but we seem to do that better when we're apart than when we're together. we came up with some new ideas for our story (that WILL be published one day!! hopefully) so we'll see how they work out. 

Actually, one of my days there was quite memorable, as we went to Sidney, BC, and... seriously. Ok, I grew up in a placed called Steveston. Its a little fishing village in Richmond, and its.. quaint. I love it, but whatever. Sidney? OMG, ITS LIKE ITS A DOPPELGANGER OR SOMETHING!!! ITS ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE STEVESTON!!! ON THE ISLAND!!! which shouldn't shock me or kinda weird me out, but it did, and it does. 

I MEAN SERIOUSLY, IT EVEN HAS A POST OFFICE/MUSEUM!!! 

it was a little creepy, but kind of cool and awesome. but thats just me being kinda geeky. 


anyway. the olympics are here. LOL to the opening ceremonies when the thing didn't work. i mean, it was a good opening (i LOVE KD LANG, BTW. SHE'S AWESOME AND AMAZING AND I LOVE HER VOICE!!). and YAY to good ol'Wayne. He's pretty cool. 

but... i feel kinda bad for saying so, but i... don't really care all that much about the olympics. I mean, its awesome for all these different nations to get together and everything, but... meh. i mean, it was cool that i saw the torch. twice. both with my bff Sarah. (who is totally my bff, and i was so happy when she said it, but i'm weird like that, and yay!) but... i dunno. it is cool. 

What IS cool is that i'm excited for one thing. Feb 21, i'm going to watch curling!! I won tickets! so i'm excited about that, because while i'm meh about it and everything, i'm glad i'm experiencing at least a part of it. When its in my city, you know? i won't ever get a chance like this again, and i won't ever make an effort to actually GO to an olympic game, so, yay!!

so... a couple weeks ago, my dad asked my sister and I if we were okay if he were to go on eHarmony. and we said of course. 

all i want is for him to be happy. i think he was a little... nervous? or... apprehensive about asking/telling us about it, because he wasn't sure if we WOULD be okay. but i'm happy if he's happy, and that's all there is too it. 

he told us today that he had started earlier than what he told us, and he had been out a couple times with a lady, but that didn't really work out (she said she didn't want/need a third date, so me and mares offered to go beat her up, to which Daddy just laughed), and he's been talking to a lady who lives on the island, and i think he's going to go meet her this weekend. my dad just had his birthday, and he just turned 61 (which is why we were with him tonight, to celebrate his birthday even though it was earlier this week), and apparently this lady is 50-something, so we made joking comments about him 'robbing the cradle' and how he's a 'sly dog', and i think he liked that we're really ok and joking about the situation. 

so, after that little conversation, we played cards for a couple hours. before that, we were teaching him a few things about his ipod. and before that we had dinner. 

ok. so. i know i'm telling this story out of whack, and i'm really surprised if you're actually still reading this, but OMFG. 

FIRST OFF, I LOVE MY FRIEND KIERAN SO MUCH RIGHT NOW. HE'S ONE OF MY MOST FAVOURITE MEN (and yes, i called him a man, which should say something about how much i adore him right now) IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW!!

ok, so, I got Daddy Eagles tickets for his birthday!! I also got tix for me and Mares. so its a family affair, and we're going to see the eagles, and seriously, guys, seriously, you have no idea how much i love this band. i was listening to them in the WOMB. this band has been a BIG part of my life. I saw them for the first time when I was in Grade 4 (the Hell Freezes Over Tour), and then I saw Don Henley in Kelowna a few years back.

but seriously, guys, its the EAGLES, AND I MAY EXPLODE FROM JOY. 

but yeah, Daddy seemed SUPER happy about his b-day gift from us, and i'm SOOOOO happy. i mean, i knew he'd LIKE them, but i think he's actually kinda excited about it, which makes me even MORE excited. 

ok, the reason i love Kieran? he told me about the Eagles concert. i think he may have told me when he found out, because he knows i love the Eagles. and i LOVE the eagles. i do. seriously, probably in my top 3 bands that i love, ever. he may have also helped me GET the tickets. so i am pretty much am indebted to him forever (within reason). 

he doesn't think its such a big deal, but... he's been really great lately. and everything that he has been doing for me has meant a LOT to me, even if it doesn't take much effort for him. and i've been trying SUPER hard to be nice to him. its been working, i think. SO yes. How much do i love my Peanut? OH SO MUCH. (this could change at any moment, but as of right now? i luff him forever!! I luv him sooooooooo much that i even told him he didn't have to buy me a Ring Pop. in fact, the other day, i bought HIM a ring pop. THAT'S how much i adore him.)
anyway. so yes. i have EAGLES TICKETS, OMFG, AND NOW I CAN BE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT IT, BECAUSE NOW MY DAD KNOWS AND I MAY JUST BURST FROM HAPPINESS. ok ok, its not until May, but whatever. I have tickets, and whatever, they're on the balcony, but whatever, i'm going to an Eagles concert. and that, my friends, is AWESOME. 

and i'm going to leave it on a high note. because really, i can't really top that. i don't really SEEM like i'm excited for this concert in person, but... it just kind of hit me. i bought the tix the week before, but... now its REAL. I'M GOING. TO SEE THE EAGLES. LIVE. IN CONCERT. THE EAGLES. BEST OF MY LOVE. ONE OF THESE NIGHTS. HOTEL CALIFORNIA. THE EAGLES. SERIOUSLY. 

*explodes from joy*

SO....

I have the biggest crush on a guy at work. Except only kinda. I mean, i don't really work with him. He works in Truro, Nova Scotia. But i've talked to him twice on the phone (and email), and i kinda love him.

It kinda reminds me of when i had a huge crush on a guy when i was in high school. Yes, this crush is BH worthy. I seriously get so giddy. I don't think he remembered me when we talked on the phone this last time though. I talked to him MONTHS ago for the first time, and that's when i developed this HUGE crush on him. We talked for about 20 mins or so. I was being pretty silly, and he's got a nice voice, and... yeah, i dunno. We just kinda talked about stuff before we got into the work stuff.

anyway, i talked to him for the SECOND time on monday, and seriously, I'm STILL giddy. i did him a little favour, and sent him an email telling him that i did it for him, and he was all, 'thanks so much, looking forward to meeting you when i'm home for christmas'

and seriously, i smile EVERY time i think about it. and all my work friends know about my massive crush on this guy. i am totally giddly like a schoolgirl about him. IT'S SO PATHETIC. I'M SO PATHETIC. but i don't care. i really hope he NEVER finds out about this though, cuz i say things like, i want to marry him, and stuff like that.

cuz, you know, THAT'S not creepy at all.

But i've got a friend at work who's been talking to him quite a bit on the phone recently, and she's going to find out when he's coming to visit our building, so that i can look especially nice when i meet him.

AND AND AND. His name is Adam. I mean, how perfect is that? (for those of you who don't know, me and my best buds skullycat and unconfessed had decided that my dream guy's name was Adam. for whatever reason. but yes. i dunno). but yes. i really hope he isn't some big disappointment, cuz that can and does happen. My friend Sonia had a crush on a guy she talked to on the phone a bit, and when she met him, it seemed like he didn't really remember her, and he wasn't that attractive. so she was a little sad about that. so, i'm going to brace myself for that to happen, but i hope it doesn't.


anyway, what else? Oh, i'm going to hae coffee with a guy i met through my friend Sarah. ITS NOT A DATE THOUGH. i refuse for it to be a date, cuz then i'll just overthnk it and ruin it. i only met the guy for about 20 mins, so its just a 'getting to know you a bit better' coffee. (and yes, i realize that i got a massive crush on a guy i haven't even seen in about 20 mins, but that was different. Adam and I talked about... stuff. Like, how old we were, and where he went to school, and stuff like that. WHATEVER. I STILL HAVE A MASSIVE CRUSH ON HIM). that's on sunday, so its totally NOT a date. i'm also going to my Dad's to decorate the tree on sunday, so YAY for family fun times!!


Oh! My Victoria Weekend Adventure! I went to go visit Karen last weekened. Brendon and I caught the 7pm ferry, and the ride wasn't bad. we sat outside with our coffees, and it was pretty nice. His step-dad, Brian, picked us up and took us home to see the woman. We got there, we hung out, we talked a bit, and around midnightish we all went to bed, since we were ALL tired. Saturday morning B made us brekkie, and he and Karen did some work in the garden while i supervised, and then he went and did some painting (as they're renovating the downstairs so that they can rent it out and stuff). So he had me and Karen and Kaeda pick up some painting tape, and on the way back we stopped by Starbucks for some drinks! Then, after a bit, as a family we went to Mt Doug and they showed me where he proposed, and we went to Mt Doug Beach and collected some rocks for Karen, then we went home, and Karen and I got ready to see New Moon. It wasn't bad. I was busy staring at all the naked man chest, which was nice. After the movie, we picked up some Vodka Rockstars and a bottle of wine, went hom, drank, had a little party (as one of Brendon's friends came over), and went to bed.

Sunday we puttered around the house, cleaning up a bit, took a nice long walk to Thrifty's after going to Starbucks for coffee (and hot chocolate for the little one), they bought their groceries for the week, we had a nice walk back home, made dinner, and B and I took the 7pm ferry home. it was 30 mins behind, but that was ok. My sister picked us up, drove B home, and when we got home, we taked a bit then went to bed.

It was nice seeing Karen again. She's coming home next week for a couple of weeks, so i'll probably see her a lot more then, but still, it was a nice little trip.

So, we finished watching the first season of lost a while ago.


OMFG. plazmah !!!! SERIOUSLY!!! SEROUSLY? SERIOUSLY!!!

i cried when Boone died. i did, and i still tear up when i see flashbacks of him. i didn't love him like i love some of the others (and i'll talk about them in a bit), but he was still an ok kind of guy. Locke told the truth when he said Boone died for the others. He was on the radio, he must have felt it shiftng, but he stayed because there was hope. or something. Boone was an ok guy in my books (despite being in love with his step-sister. that was kind of weird.) BUT i am upset that Locke didn't say anything about how Boone looked in his dream/vision thingy. I KNEW THAT THIS IS WHEN HE WOULD DIE. STUPID LOCKE!!

Jin and Sun? my otp on the island. i love them to bits. i think she's adorable and as cute as a button, and i think he's good looking, and they're both so in love with each other that they make mistakes, and i'm so glad that they made up. i was SO SO upset when they were apart and he wasn't talking to her. but i totally love them to death, and if anything happens to them, i won't be happy with this show. as in, it will go on notice. and i don't usually put shows on notice.

anyway, so right now we're on Disc 6 of S2 of Lost. and OMFG. SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY. SERIOUSLY. i can't even...

dude. i don't care how crazy he is, i kind of love Mr. Eko. he's fucking awesome. the island talks to him too! its CRAZY!! and i still love Jin and Sun, and now she's all preggars. I totally think the island made her pregnant. its got crazy healing powers, and it apparently likes babies, and kids. so... why not, right?

jack and kate and sawyer are still pretty awesome.

OMG HURLEY!!! my love for him knows no bounds. I'M SAD THAT HIS CHICK DIED. BUT I'M MORE SAD ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE'S SAD, AND NOT THAT SHE'S DEAD. i don't know how i felt about her, you know? she was kinda weird, but she made hurley happy, so she was ok in my books.

rose and bernard? SO CUTE. but yeah, i thought they had been married for YEARS, not just recently. they are still so cute though. and i love how much Bernard loves her. i'm SUCH a sucker for love.

i KNEW that Michael was going to kill Ana Lucia the second he got the gun. i was all, she's going to die now, then BANG! she was dead. Poor Michael. The Others did something to him, like they did something to Claire. and seriously, are we ever going to get Walt back? and the rest of the kids? (see? the Island LIKES kids).

anyhoo. S2 is pretty good. We're so close to finishing S2, then we'll watch S3, and i'm getting S4 for Xmas from Daddy.

so i'm excited. Lost is pretty awesome. I'm hooked. ITS SO CRAZY WITH ALL ITS CRAZY PLOTS AND I NEVER KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON. ITS AWESOME!!
