College Stuff.

So I went to the Franklin Station Bow Valley campus for a little "mini-orientation" of sorts for Practical Nursing. It was awesome. I got to meet a bunch of wonderful staff, who answered a ton of my questions, and were just so helpful. There were donuts and stuff too. Mmm. There were about 50 students there, and we all got to tour the place, and see some equipment and stuff. There were some textbooks that we will be using there, and I grabbed a Psychology one, and just sat in a desk and read it for about 30 minutes. Lol. I'm going to get my list of books asap and buy them as soon as my school money gets transferred to me. Hopefully within the next few weeks :D GAH I've never been more excited to go to school in my life! ^_^

I'm famished.

BUT thats okay, I'll be out of this horrid office soon enough. For good, too. I finally realized that my passion really isn't sitting behind a desk and dealing with idiots both on the phone and in the office. So I'm on the job hunt once again. I have another evening part time job at the clothes store Ricki's which is pretty awesome thus far, and the discounts are amazing as well. 50% off 6 pieces every month, and 30% off the rest. YAY! But I'll get a full time job Monday to Friday and work no later than 4:30. It'll be nice.

Carl is also going back to Totem, where they can guarantee him at elast $5 more per hour than he was making here. We need it too, cause come September, we'll only have one income. Speaking of which, I'm sooooo unbelievably excited for school. I feel like such a nerd. I just want to buy my text books and start to study. Hah.

One of the girls that I worked with at Ricki's, Beth invited us out to a Sun and Salsa festival in Kensington on the 20th, it sounds pretty awesome. Cheap salsa and chips, latin dancing, all that good stuff. Thats one of the big reasons I love this city, theres stuff to do all the time, everywhere. You never get bored here. Unless you're a complete hermit.

But alas, I must depart, I've still got a few more hours of work. Ciao!

Ah, Timmeheheh.

Masculinity..

...comes easy when you have a cold. About a week ago, I got a head cold, now it's attacking the throat and stuff, and the resemblance between my voice, and an old man's voice is very uncanny. Super! Oh well. That is why God invented drugs. And these things never last forever. But seriously. Who gets a cold in May?!

Money Issues.

We all have them. Sigh. I hate debt, so, so much. Carl and I are planning on getting out of it by early next year, and we're going to work our asses off, especially this summer. I'll be getting another part time job this week, hopefully. So that'll really help out alot. As well as not going out to eat, especially to fast food joints, cause those can add up way too incredinbly fast.
In other news, Christal is back from Kelowna and man, I'd never thought I'd be so happy to see my boss come home. It was an absolute GONG SHOW last week while she wasn't here. Carl was trying to keep the office together as best he could (and he did a damn good job for how much experience he has) but everyone was still slacking off and dicking around, so the office did horrible. Yeah. Oh well, she's back now, thats all that matters.
We went out to Mom's in Airdrie last night, seeing as it was mother's day and all. We made them some sort of oriental meatballs and rice. It was alright, I guess. We were suppsed to cover them in a chick-pea flour sauce, but she got black-bean flour instead, and that made them taste super weird. And the rice was waaay to spicy. Oh well, I don't plan on making that again anytime soon. At least it was super filling.

All Alone...

Le sigh. Carl went on a business road trip to Red Deer yesterday. He's been on one before, and it wasn't too overly bad, until Thursday. But this one's not as bad, because we now work together and I understand more of why these road trips are so important. Besides, this week is super busy. I'm flying out to Kelowna on Thursday morning for a work conference on Friday, then Carl will be driving there on Saturday with his crew for another conference on Sunday, then I'll drive back with them on Sunday. It's going to be one hectic weekend! I can't wait to meet the other admins from the different offices across Canada. There is much to be done in these next two days, so I don't think I'll even have time to miss Carl. It's his birthday on Saturday, so I'm going to take him out for a night on the own in Kelowna, then we'll come back to the hotel and just hang out in the jacuzzi with the rest of the crew. After that, who knows? ;) Ahh...the liberties of being married. Gotta love 'em.

Anyhoo, I'm on the lookout for another part-time job, to not only keep myself out of trouble, but mainly because we need to money. It'll be nice to have a little bit of financial flexibility and freedom again. I want to work somewhere that closes at 9 or 9:30, so perhaps a clothing store in a mall, or maybe Petland or something fun like that!

Speaking of cats, once Carl and I get more stable, we're going to get one!! We went to a cat fanciers show a few weeks ago, and although purebreds are neat, we decided then that we would adopt a kitty from the Meow Foundation. It's a no-kill shelter that rescues abandoned cats, and strays. I'm so excited :D We just need to save up the $500 damage deposit for our landlady, because our place is no-pets-allowed. But she loves us, so we got an exception, yay!
