Clarification
A few days ago I wrote an entry about people calling me out of the blue and wanting favors. Allow me to clarify - I meant I hate it when people I haven't heard from because things ended on bad terms called me and asked for favors. If I like you, then it doens't matter how long we go without talking...call me anytime. If things ended on bad terms, don't pretend nothing happened and we are friends. I hate that. It is SO fake.
Ok, I need to go catch up on my desk calendar. It is stuck on June 26th, where I left it when I left Ubi. I need to catch up and incorporate it into my new desk set-up.
Today, as a nice little surprise, I got roses from a certain young man in Montreal. Thank you Gadi! It was such a sweet thought and it is MUCH appreciated!
Ok, off to read.
Have fun!

Is it the weekend yet?
Well hello everyone,
I am at work after a morning on a site visit...how exciting. Life would be a lot better right now if I didn't feel so sick. A full blown cold. Now that will kill your enthusiasm for life!
Nothing exciting to report today. I just ran into a friend who mocked my blogging. HRMPH! I think he is just jealous because no one would read his (ooh, you know who you are young man!)
I went to see Shark Tale last night. It was pretty cute. Enjoyable for the young 'uns.
Wow, I am boring.
Last night I went home feeling sick, which made me depressed. I've decided I hate disappointing people and i often wonder why we, as people, let others who we know will inevitably disappoint us, stay in our lives. I know I do it. What is it about us that makes us hold onto things that we know are bad?
I don't have an answer. It is just something I wonder about. Is it a selfish thing? A challenge thing?
I wish I knew.
Ok, that is all I have. I'm going to go work and then go home and watch TV until I pass out cold.
Hope everyone is ALLLLLLL good.
Hump Day
Well good morning. I have officially caught me a cold and it TRULY sucks. But I guess it was inevitable. Things were pretty hectic and crazy for a few weeks there (with the moving and the new job and the going out in TO) so it was hard to avoid my bodt not getting a little worn out. And I think my co-worker had a cold...so here i am, feeling kinda gross.
Fortunately, it seems pretty tame, so I'm hoping it won't last too long and I will be back to my normal healthy self anytime now.
So last night I went to see Shaun of the Dead. The company was great and the movie was pretty funny. I was VERY amused. It was totally funny and still makes you jump and lots of action. I liked it a lot. Like a funny 28 Days. Of course, I probably should have stayed home and nursed myself back to health. But, how can I say no to a Tuesday night movie (which, p.s. cost 9.25$ here in Toronto! Where is my $5 Guzzo when I need it?).
So, the past couple of days I have heard from a couple of people who are emailing me very simply for a purpose. These are people that are neither my friend nor anyone I would want to talk to. They simply are trying to get something from me. Let me tell you all, I hate that. I hate when people, after an extended silence, try desperately to be your friend because they need something from you. It is just an example of people being crappy. Unfortunately I can't tell these people what I actually think of them because I am stuck maintaining professional relationships. Which sucks but I guess it keeps me from burning bridges. Not impressive.
That is it for me. I'm going to continure working here at my new computer (yay) .
Happy hump day!
(love that!)
Elana is a Blogger too!
I'm discovering new things all the time. My good friend Elana (who happens to work right near me...yay) also has a little blog action going. Now that I know about hers and she knows bout mine, we will have to quit trashing each other all the time (just kidding Banan!)

Toronto Tuesday
Happy tuesday!
Nothing new and/or exciting to talk about. I'm still trying to get out to Washington for a weekend and it is no easy task. But it does look like i will make it into Montreal for the weekend of October 22.
So last night I went out for disappointing Indian food. I hope it was just he one restaurant that wasn't great and not that all Indian in Toronto is not as good. I mean..where is Star of India when I need it? Any montrealers reading this, know that when I come into town I want me some yummy S.o.I! I ordered butter chicken and I swear it was chicken with tomato sauce. Not what I was looking for.
So I have had a request for some juice..the dirt....and yes.I will feature my innermost feelings here..or at least those that are PG and for all eyes :)
This morning I had a meeting at Sony, it was very interesting. I finally got to meet the Sony of Canada team. It is all pretty cool to start feeling like a part of the office here and know I am going to get involved in bigger things (of course, my first goal is to get a computer set up...then I can start worrying about the other stuff).
It is SO frustrating to not have a system. It is a weird way to start a job...to be at a new company but not really feel like you are at a new company...I feel like a temp. On the flipside, they did give us all presents yesterday (a copy of Scarface and a copy of the Bourne Identity) - who doesn't love presents.
Anyhow, that is all for now. Nothing too exciting huh?
So, who is coming to visit me and when?
Introductions
Hi everyone.
A friend of mine started these so I thought it would be fun to start one too. I think we should ALL do it. It is all about voyeurism and we all know I love that (the queen of reality TV here). So stay tuned for the latest posts to read all about what goes on in my life. YAY!
I can tell you the latest is that I am desperately trying to get out to visit Jen W. in Washington and can't get a ticket with my points. AAACCCKK!
So frustrating.
Ok, I'm off to keep working. I may actually get a computer this week.
Hooray!
