STUPID STUPIDS
Why is it that when you dont want a gym membership they call you relentlessly and offer you special deals, but when you want to go to the gym and work off the cheesecake you just ate they don't return your call?
Blast.
So anyways my mother came over today, stupid cow, and she pretended like everything was fine and that she was never a devil she-bitch. Geez!
Also I went to spotlight and spent money I shouldn't have on fabric I dont really need... Damn me and my inability to not spend money when I have it in my wallet....damn damn damn! But on the bright side the fabric is very nice.
I WOULD LIKE TO RETRACT MY PREVIOUS BLOG
New rule, Don't write a review until you've finished the book.
ITS A TAD PREDICTABLE
So I'm reading Angels and Demons by Dan Brown and I am completely unimpressed. I bought A&D after reading the DaVinci Code and was pleased with it. A&D is on a completely different level though, a much lower level. While reading DVC I was on edge the whole time, unable to put it down, the twists were completely unexpected and shocked the bananas out of me. (I havent seen the movie, if it takes three hours to watch I'd rather spend my weekend reading... I'm a little bit A.D.D when it comes to movies, if its not enthralling I tend to get figetty and point out flaws in the film. Its the most fun with action movies. "Bryce I really doubt that a bus could jump a 50 foot gap, this movie is shit. I hate Keanu Reeves."
I havent even finished this book yet and I have so far guessed most of the big twists before they occurred, I guessed that Rocher guy was an Illuminatus way before he started acting funky. Of course Dan Brown is going to make one guy look like he's a tad suspect and then kill him. Its all too messy.
I am very disappointed.
I am going to finish reading it today and I will take it to my book exchange and see if they'll take it off my hands otherwise... I'll burn it.
My next read is 'Wicked' and I am so excited for this. There has been so much hype on this book, none that I have noticed from like critics or anything but like friends who have read it (OK, only one friend and her sister have read it) and they said it was awesome!
So I have to finish this terrible book before I can start a new book.
Its like having to do your chores before you can go out and play.
WHY DIDNT HITLER TRY KILL ALL THOSE BASTARDS? WE CAN DO WITHOUT JUNKIES!
So I have just come back from my little town's shopping district (We have Woolies and Coles.... FANCY!) and while I was there I had an altercation with some junkie scum bag.
During the day Bryce has the car (because I refuse to get up at 5 to drive him to work.) and so if I have any small errands to run I have to take a cab into my village. (I like calling it a village, though it hardly is.)
I had asked the cab driver to pull into the carpark next to my bank and wait there with Callum so I could run to an ATM to get out some money. As I was getting out a man approached the cab driver and said a friendly hello. Being that I was in a hurry I ignored him and ran off to go to the ATM. By the time I was finished at the ATM (like maybe 30 seconds) the guy was screaming at the poor taxi driver. The local cab company has very few cars with baby capsules in them and as a result you can wait up to an hour for a cab with one. However after the childs first birthday the law states that cab drivers do don't have to have a capsule to carry the child over 1. Something to do with it being public transport? I dont much like this ruling but what can you do?!
This crazy man was yelling "Don't you f**king drive with that baby in your cab. F**king idiot.... BLAH BLAH BLAH."
Callum on had his seat belt as is the law, but this guy was going ape shit. At one point he was trying to climb into the cab through the driverside window. I quickly paid the cabbie and took Callum as quickly as I could in the opposite direction. But once the cab had driven off the guy still yelling came after me. Callum was terrified, and I was shaking, you dont know how these people will react.
"How could you put your child in danger like that.... BLAH BLAH BLAH!"
The only thing I could think to do was keep walking, and as I did I walked past another bank at which point 2 security guards came out and confronted the bloke. I kept walking and didn't bother looking back. I'm only 5 foot 3, theres not much I can do to protect Callum, or myself for that matter.
I went to the post office but got another cab home as soon as I was finished there.
I'm still a little shook up. I don't know what I would have done if that idiot caught up with me or worse tried to take Callum.
I am actually very surprised to see someone like that in the village, its a quiet suburb, agreed some of the suburbs surrounding are mainly housing commission, lower socio-economic areas, but can't people like that just stay home instead of ruining my day?
If I wanted to deal with a junkie I'd call my dad.
GOD I HATE MYSELF THIS MORNING
I had a dream about my American and I woke up and almost sent him an email.
Why do I have so much anger towards him? Its my own fault things happened they way they did.
And its not even that I would want him back, I just guess I'm not over it.
I'm over him, I'm just not over the situation I guess.
Maybe I just want to go back to California?
I really liked it there.
LOL.
A GIRLS ONLY GYM! :0P
In my haste to join a gym early this morning I called my old gym at like 7am. The ladies who do all the paper work dont come in until like 9. Its 9:15 and I am sitting next to the phone like a desperate girl on friday night.
I told you guys I was serious about it this time.
Also I have made an appointment to see my GP next week so I can talk to him about the aftermath of my most recent surgery. I had my gaul bladder removed some months ago, and I was told about some side effects that I may experience thereafter. For a while there was no obvious complications from it, but now, there are. I wont go into details, cause its not nice, but I hope its fixable.
Ugg, if its not.
What three qualities do you look for in a partner?
Submitted by Tenor Bob
I am quite possibly the worst person to ask this kind of thing, only because of the three qualities I look for my partner only has one.
1. A sense of humour. (I heart Bryce's sense of humour, though its very different from my own.)
2. Some fat on his bones. (Bryce is the only boyfriend I have dated who weighed less than 100kgs or 220 lbs)
3. Confidence but not arrogance. (Bryce is confident, but it can come across as arrogant.)
ITS BEEN A YEAR, TIME TO GET SERIOUS
OK, so its been a year, which is the limited amount of time you can use the "I'm not fat I just had a baby" excuse. I gained over 20kg (like 44.0926828 pounds) (I have a converter and its very accurate) Of that weight I would say I've lost (and I am being completely honest here) about 5 kilos. (11.0231707 lbs)
Me somewhere in California, just before I realised I was preggers.
Me the day I gave birth.
Me after giving birth... Thank God Bryce likes fat chicks.
WHAT AM I DOING TONIGHT?
Baby in bed, sleeping in adorable position.
Boyfriend watching boyfriend-type movies.
Me, in my bed.
Electric blankie on to fight off winter cold.
Glass which contains ice and vodka.
Good book.
Winnie the pooh slippers.
oh yeah, you wish you were me.
HE IS PRACTICALLY AN ADULT!
Today Bryce and I put Callum's crib in his bedroom. As well as all his toys, and his big boy bed.
I cried. Its like the end of an era. He has been sleeping in the same room as Bryce and I, his whole life (It sounds like a long time but he is only a year old.) I think tonight I will sleep in his big boy bed so when he wakes up for his bottle I'll be right there and he wont be so scared. Its a new environment and all.
I put my small bookcase in the lounge room (I moved the larger to my bedroom because both wouldn't fit.) and Callum immediately ripped all the books from the shelves he could reach. This might be an issue!
I would take a photo of Callum's new room, with everything in its place, but Bryce's sister M, is off to the mountains for her school's snow trip and she borrowed our digital camera.
It will have to wait I suppose.
In other Callum related news, he said 2 new words today. "Please" and "Juice", Please however sounds more like 'piece' and juice sounds like 'oose' (Moose without the M) its adorable how kids pronounce things terribly... Its not so adorable when whiney teenagers pulled a pouty face and say "Awww peazzzze" when they want something. I admit I was guilty of this when confronted with the big N.O. But if my kids try pull that shit on me, I'm gonna get all kinds of Kung Fu and they're arses.
