Displaced Person.
So today I had my first experience as an evacuee. At first it was really exciting... but after two hours of sitting in Safeway (however much I LOVE Safeway) freezing cold (BECAUSE OF THE SNOW, yes SNOW) and with the beginnings of a migraine, I was tiring of it. I'm sure those of you who don't already know the situation in Rupert right now must be wondering what on earth I'm talking about.
Well, APPARENTLY.. (there are many rumours) there was a bomb threat to either the p
ost office or DFO (department of fisheries and oceans) at about 3pm and almost all of the buildings downtown were evacuated, including Scotiabank. So thinking I would just go home, I walked towards my apartment. Well, was I ever mistaken. It is now 11pm, and there is still no access to my block, so we're spending the night at mom's friend Shelly's house.
There's not a ton left to say, I have a picture or two to put on here, but I don't think I'll do it til I get home, whenever that is. I'll update if I find out anything else interesting.
Toodles.

I am the Walrus.
Hola!
So I haven't really updated since the 31st, besides chunks of lyrics from random songs. That's how I roll. Not tons to talk about, really.. Work has been going really well, I love it. Today was my first day at the wicket by myself. I was TRES EXCELLENTE. I balanced out perfectly and everything was merry!
In other job news, I have a job interview for BC Ferries next Tuesday. SO excited for it. I think I will be awesome in the interview. I applied for a terminal job so it wouldn't interfere with work at the bank. If (when) I get the job I would be working late nights and early mornings. $19 an hour! whooo! I think I am kind of a shoe-in because I've had TONS of experience with BC Ferries, both good and bad and I am just awesome in general. I don't know.. I feel really good about it. You guys (assuming that anyone reads my blog) should wish me luck.
Not a lot else is new.. Hung out with Maggie a bunch on the weekend, that was nice. I don't see that kid as much as I used to and I miss it. Or her, I guess! Speaking of nieces, Janine and Jamie are thinking that the baby is coming any day now. I am so incredibly excited for them. I can't waaaaait! It's from the same gene pool as I am, so it should be an amazingly good looking baby, me thinks. :P. I wish I could be down there for all of this, but work keeps me away. I booked two weeks off from scotiabank in June to go down, but if I get the BC Ferries job I might not be able to go when I planned. Althouuuugh, if I DO get the BCF job I would get free fare to go down there, just a little later than planned. I guess not being able to do what you want when you want to is part of being an adult.
It's kind of funny actually, because I figured when I was younger that I would be able to do what I want when I wanted to when I was "All-Grown-Up". I don't think I quite got the fact that "All-Grown-Up" meant having a lot more responsibility and that yes, I while I could technically do whatever I wanted to, it would probably not be the wisest decision to do so.
Go figure.
EXCITING NEWS! My beloved Juliaaaar is coming home sooonsoonsoon. I am SOO excited to see her. You aren't supposed to go this long without seeing your best friend. She graduated from her "Outtatown" program on Sunday, and is at this moment on her way to or in Nanaimo to see B-lair. I'm proooud of her. I miss her though. I miss a lot of people. Sigh.
I think that's enough out of me for now.
CIAO!

All my loving.
I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
In the city of blinding lights.
Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs purple irises
The camera can't see
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs purple irises
The camera can't see

Black
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why.. Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine?
