The red bull from the Red Bull restaurant in Radisson. Radisson is where you turn off to go to Redberry Lake. Redberry Lake is my lake.

At the Red Bull we bought those peanut butter marshmallow squares that are the besssst ever. I should just make some. If I didn't have to go to work right now I would. Certainly.

Oh yeah yeah yeah I'm back in Toronto and WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH THIS HEAT??
I just don't like it I don't find it funny anymore, it's not great it's just stupid now.
if I didn't have AC I would probably want to die right now.

But I just had delicious nutritious brunch at Aunties and Uncles with my pals and so I'm still happy to be back.
Also Noodle, Niki and Cpt. Heh picked me up at the airport and Niki made a feast and sangria and we went to the park and Niki and I stayed there talking until probably after 4 in the morning but it was still hot out.

And last night Noodle and I went to Camp 4 which was SO HOT in a technically hot way and there were allllll these good-looking sweaty people, especially men with tattoos and sexy ladies wearing little clothing. It was so hot it felt like a sauna or a joke but it was almost okay if you had a pint of ice-water to put against your wrists to cool the blood a bit plus everyone all melty and sexy like that is pretty appealing?

Summer has pretty much gotten all up my heartbeat and I'm eying up the city and wanting to press my forehead against your back and wanting to hold hands with everyone for a year.

booked my trip to make my flight

that's me alright

Booked my flight back to Saskatoon for the 16th. Damn you Air Canada, you won out on this one... I'm hoping Westjet pulls through for my flight back.. keep on checking.

It snowed today! It was very slippery and I didn't notice until tonight, but one of my favourite cowboy boots is cracked right across the sole, traps snow up in there very, very well. Good thing for those sorels I bought.

It's totally Christmas in full-swing. Pretty exciting, and even though I was fully expecting it, it's still kind of exciting.

christmas christmas

there's lights!!



Went to Value Village today with my friend who probably needs a nickname on here but I don't really know what to call him... How about Deck? More than obvious and lame, but whatever. So I made Deck drive me to Value Village and it was slippery and we skidded a bit, oh winter driving - the fun!!
And his family isn't exchanging gifts this year so he didn't even have any shopping to really, except I wanted him to get a Christmas sweater. But VV was totally picked over in that dept. Silly hipsters, stealing all my cool things.
But I got a few things, namely new shoes and an iron and a mini-ironing-board.
Can cross that off my Christmas list I guess. Sorry if you already got that for me.
I just needed it right away for my projects.
Projects I need to get onto.

I cleaned up the house a bit tonight kind out of the blue, I mean, I didn't mean to, it just sort of happened. Which is v nice.
And then I made this video to prove that Rudyard Kitling is a prime athlete. I hope she get spons'd in Fetch soon.



The best is when I accidentally hit her in the nose on the second throw or so. And also how nutso she looks. What a charmer.
A charming, charming charmer who needs to spend WAY less time scratching at the door or in the litter box (45 minutes - tooo long) in the middle of the night.
Still cute though.
I guess.

Ha! One of the flights has dropped a hundred dollars since yesterday! Take that not-booking-yet!

Ah, man, now it's probably going to go back up again before I get back from brunch and book it...

Flight check flight check flight check. I don't know why they change their prices every few minutes and I don't know why Westjet Doesn't understand that they are one of my all-time favourite companies but my bottom line (as a poor person) is dollar-dollar-bills.
And since they have the exact same prices as Air Canada (who I have no loyalty to whatsoever - despite never having a terrible experience with them) I am less inclined to take the Westjet flight which has a stop rather than the straight-there Air Canada one.
Why doesn't Westjet make it even $15 cheaper or something, then I could choose them!
I want to always choose Westjet but one time I chose Westjet and the flight was $25 cheaper but then I ended up getting a bit tipsy in the airport in Winnipeg for more than $25 dollars cause I was so bored and had so much time to waste.....

What I love about Westjet is that I've always found them to be quite a bit like their advertising - laid-back, warm, friendly, and they will go above and beyond.

Once I got to the airport late flying Air Canada by about 2 minutes (fair enough, totally my fault and by "my fault" I mean "lackadaisical friend who was giving me a ride"'s fault) and the guy was so detached and unhelpful and I was scared of missing Christmas and so broke and of course I started crying. He put me on a later flight, no charge, so it was great and everything, but he just was so don't-care-high.
When I got there late flying Westjet, again by about 2 minutes (fair enough, totally TTC's fault) the woman was unbelievably helpful, late-boarded my luggage and rushed me to the gate. And was funny and charming. And I told her I wanted to marry her I was so happy and she said "maybe". Which was good-sported of her.

.

I'm thinking I'm going to go home from Dec. 16th until the 30th - I need to miss as few good shifts at ACC as possible but I want to be there for at least two weeks. Even that won't be near enough.
Ghaaad.

How am I all of a sudden behind on all my Christmas planning and prep? Annoying. Everyone else seems more on the ball than me.

So I guess I'm going to be back in Toronto for New Years. I've never been here for New Years. Wild. I wonder what I will get up to.

.

My stomach was so upset this morning, I blame it entirely on the chips that I ate before bed. This is exactly why stuff like that doesn't come into my house. Because it will immediately journey to my belly.
I have to put all the rest of that candy away. Ah, man, such a terrible eater.
I can tell I'm gaining weight I can feel it in my face. Sexy, I know.

By feeling ill I missed out on making my friend take me along to No Frills to get groceries. And I really needed them. Like so badly. Now I have to go to Dominion (Metro, sorry) and spend a billion dollars.
My life is hard.

"You still shop at No Frills, don't you? I'm gonna pick you up and take you to the No Frills"
