Howdy all, bit of a short journal update today.

I'm alive and well. Well mostly well. Didn't sleep amazingly at all this weekend as I fought with my sister til 3am Friday night, then had to get up at 8 and go to LaRonde with my boyfriend. Saturday evening I went out for a birthday and got to my boyfriends place at 3:30. I woke up Sunday morning at 9 thinking I was going home, but I ended up being allowed to go to LaRonde again, this time with three other friends as well as my boyfriend. He and I got back to my place around 4:30 or so. We watched The Italian Job remake (which I adore) and then he went home.

Today would have been an ok day, except for the fact that I had to get up at 8 (third day in a row) to go to work for 8:45. The only reason I'm hope writing this now, is because I don't start being paid again until 3:30, so I figured I may as well come home, shower, relax and whatnot.

Fun fact: while leaving LaRonde on saturday (which for those of you who don't know is a theme park) the bus that was taking my boyfriend and I back to the bus terminus, got into an accident. It collided with a van that was trying to cut it off. We ended up having to get off the bus, walking to a metro station I've never been to before, and then taking an even longer trip back to the metro station where the 211 bus gets us home. No one was hurt, but it was just a day full of bad luck and odd coincidences.

The last actual journal I posted was posted on the 9th of November 2008...I still check DA all the time, I guess I just get wrapped up in so many other things that I don't update as much as I used to be able to. Here's a mini run down of a few important things that have happened in the past 6 months:

*I finished one semester of University and managed to fail 3 out of 4 courses, meaning I am suspended for a year indefinitely
*For the first time in 5 summers, I won't be working outdoors. I got fired (well, "let go" was the term used at the time, but I know what they really meant) in November, and so am working (for the first time) indoors all summer long.
*Another first this summer is that I have a season pass for LaRonde, which means I can go whenever I want. So far, I have been 4 times, and I expect that number will greatly increase as the summer progresses
*I have been with my boyfriend Mike for 13 months which I still find incredible. I really adore him with all my heart, and hope to move out with him in June of 2010
*My mom's father is dying of cancer. This is the first family death I have been around to experience (the previous one being her older brother who was 24 when he passed away). I'm trying to help as much as I can, but for the most part I just feel like I'm getting in the way
*I'm going to be helping a good friend with a stage production that he is going to direct called Toad of Toad Hall. It'll be the first time in about 6 months that I have been a part of theatrical production and I am crazy excited about it
*I will be working 5 days a week with varying schedules. That pretty much means my day could go from 5:45 am to 10:30 pm (not all in one shot mind you, split shifts), but it's going to be annoyingly hard to plan things with friends as I won't know when I'm working until the day before the new schedule commences

I suppose if I think of anything else worth typing, I will probably type it here after I get back from my 6 hour shift. Hope everything with everyone else is good!
