Rant? I drove to the store to buy chips, salsa, and hair dye so I could play the drunk Sunday night beauty parlor game, but when got in line to pay I opened my purse and found an elf hat, a purple polka-dot bra, and no wallet. I had to drive home, get my wallet, and go to the slightly farther away store so as to not accidentally make awkward eye contact with creepy checkout man again.
RANT: Left a 12-month-cave-aged bottle of Ommegang Hennepin (saison) in my car overnight and it froze. I'm sure it'll be flat as hell when I open it, but I'm still going to drink it goddammit.
Rave: Skiing was awesome. Over 2 ft of fresh snow over the course of 3 days. Enough to make people think twice about driving up to ME though I heard the more Southern resorts were packed. Rant: My new ski boots hurt my feet. I need to see if I can adjust the buckle mounting or something because my calves are bruised. Guess my calves grew quite a bit since last year when I tried on the boots so at least all this hiking is paying off. Rave: Skipped the Bengals-Jets game and my neighbor isn't pissed since he didn't want to go either. Would have been a waste of a game since Cincy laid down.
RAVE: Easy day of work considering Mondays usually suck balls. Probably because I didn't get hammered while watching football all day Sunday. Just got a little buzzed watching football in the afternoon. RAVE: Made $135 profit on pull tabs at the bar while my buddy threw me one free beer after another. He got a good tip. RAVE: New bed just came. The old one was fucking terrible and left my back/neck all fucked up every day. It was bowed in the middle so bad that it resembled a hammock more than a mattress. $1100 well spent.
Rant- Thoroughly laughed as I read up on John Dewey and the Progressive Education Movement. Only a public sector employee could come up with such bullshit and think it would help children in the real world, aka outside of academia.
Rave: My favorite wrestler of all time, Bret Hart, is hosting Raw tonight. I'm excited because I'm a huge nerd.
RANT: Classes start back up tonight. I'm so sick of school, and I'm not really sure I have the energy to finish this degree.
Rave: So today was the first day of classes for the winter semester. Went through all the motions of going and acting like I was paying attention. I found out that I only have ONE final this semester! I'm soooo fucking excited. This semester is going to be great. Rant: Said final is the last day of finals at the earliest time (Friday at 10am). Fuck that. It will be moved to the first day and I will be drunk the rest of the week until graduation on Sunday. Rant: This is my last semester of undergrad. Sadness.
RANT: I want to throw up. Just discovered that guy I dated last year was engaged the ENTIRE time, and is now married. Was even talking to him today - he was inviting me to come visit him. Found him on facebook tonight - thank god for the new lack of privacy settings. Yep, there was a whole wedding album up. That fucker. I feel really really really stupid right now. At least we never had sex, but I'm disgusted.
RAVE: Thailand for a week tomorrow, which a huge opening party for our new business Friday night. RANT: 9 hour flight. At least that will give me time to brush up on my discerning lady ladies from ladyboys skills.
Rave: Is it sad that the best night I've had in a while was getting drunk and playing Beatles Rock Band with my roommates? I can't feel my vocal cords anymore but damn.
Rave: Won my Fantasy Football league. First year, knowing nothing about football when I started, being from Australia and playing against some mad keen football fans- and I win. Rave: the winnings cover my bar tab for the day.
Rave: I got my brown belt last night. One of my goals for 2010 has already been accomplished. Rant: Only for a very short time because apparently it "really fucking hurt" her. Nothing kills a mood faster than seeing the girlfriend in real, prolonged pain. Rave: This afternoon I'm leaving work an hour early, driving an hour down the highway and I'll then watch Sweden vs. Switzerland, followed by the USA vs. Canada for the Gold Medal at the World Juniors live. If tonight's Gold Medal game is half as exciting as the game last Thursday, than hockey fans in North America are in for a real treat. Even though I'm Canadian, I'm honestly feeling quite neutral about the game tonight - If the USA wins, it makes next year's tournament in Buffalo all the more dramatic. If Canada wins, our hockey dominance only increases. It's win-win.
