I've been busy!....geez....

...AND this is the second time that I've written this post!!! Last night after writing a brilliant, yes brilliant, like the big fish that got away brilliant, posting I hit save and then sudddenly... the server is down again. Which reminds me, this whole sketchy Shaw internet access is quite annoying.

...AND, besides, I'm still anxious that I have nothing intelligent to contribute to my blog other than updates on my life and however interesting they may be (this is sarcasm), I had no idea that there was more than 1 person who checks for them.

so ok already.
here they are.

Brazillian - loved it when the hair was gone... but now, as it starts to grow back as an itchy stubble, well, the honeymoon is over and I'm excited to wax it again.
(apparently this annoying/ugly stubble is normal for the first two "growths" and then it grows back as soft hair. I'm skeptical, but the combination of wanting to rid my body of this stubble, the enjoyment I got when there was no hair, and basic curiousity makes me want to see it through for a couple more painful wax treatments.)

Rollerblades - are still without wheels. I'm hoping this rain will buy me a few more days.

Living situation - right now I'm house-sitting for Maile and Tee Jae. It so wonderful to be an 8 minute bike ride from work and except for the random Phillipino cousins dropping by (usually this information would reach me late at night...when do they decide to stay here?... you think you might give your roomate a heads up beforehand... at a normal hour), things have been great. I love living on my own! Especially when the rent is null.

Octopus - Fiesty (the 2.5 year old Giant Pacific Octopus) is so cool when she's out hunting, bright red gliding across the tank.

Job - is both good, bad and busy - any job is still a job.

Flamenco - loving it! It's so nice to be dancing more these days and makes me feel like I might actually be improving, leaving the learning plateau that I've been stuck on for several months. I'm doing workshops this week . 2.5 hours of dancing every night.

Thursday's - are reserved for Andrea's wedding.

My new keyboard - rocks. I do wish it had speakers though. For now, as I jam with Johnny Cash, I listen to the CD with one ear and the other is covered by headphones - huge, weathered, yellow, 70's style DJ headphones...so great...brings me back to my spinning days... :)

Miscellaneous - I'm tired - the Tercel has been a BC Ferries taxi lately which I don't mind doing but eats away my time very quickly - i have a growing pile of Vancouver Sun newspapers that I would like to read some time. I have no idea whats going on with the BC corals that are in trouble, a canadian man that was killed in Iraq, and freaking Bertuzzi - I really need to see a couple of friends such as Andrea, Sarah Hanna (tommorw night with Svea!), Tracy (not my sister though she should be on the list too, however she's living up at the cabin right now... lucky), Alex and Sarah and their new girl Linnaea (sp?), Brian (again, not my sibling, though shit I guess he needs to be on this too), Kate, Mel and those are just the people in Vancouver! - so Big Jim Boone is getting a dog and the major reason he's been thinking about it is because I keep talking about it! I've screwed myself here. Can we both get dogs? Is this a relationship faux-pas? Matching flannel jackets and two dogs? Is it fair though, that I "can't" adopt a dog as well? - anyone still reading? :)

(sigh)
