tonight

Why do places feel the need to close early on the day before ole years?? Really, when all you want is a place to chill - even a restaurant or whatever, they're closed EARLY. One exception = Boston Pizza. Gotta love BP! Yeah, i quit my job there and I don't really choose to eat there anymore BUT they know what's good (and they have the team pitcher). Tonight, some of my cousins n my brother wanted to go out...too much inside time for them. First we thought we'd see a movie but we're running on west indian time, soo never made it on time :S Then, it was pool but I wasn't into that soo i bepped out, lol. Of course, it's not the same if EVERYONE isn't there , soo they convinced me to go chill somewhere else. Since other places were CLOSED, we ended up at BP. Yes, i know i mentioned this before but right now that's the point i'm at in my story.
Some good times were had...that's not really surprising tho, i love my family...esp. my cousins - we just all understand each other. I thought that since tomorrow is the big new years party/ole years nite that I would start the drinking early...
For some reason i don't remember I ordered a rickard's red...WTF? I'm not really a beer person EXCEPT for Corona ......gotta love the imports :D
So, i get a pint of Rickard's and i'm wondering how i'm gonna finish it while also thinking that it's bad luck not to finish it. Very tricky situation.
I did finish it tho..u know, gotta avoid bad luck at every turn. Right now, it's 3:11 am and i'm feeling not sooo super. I don't like Rickard's red...atleast not right now. I realise this now when it's all over and done with. Oh well..it was good while it lasted.
Next time i think i'll stick to my corona or some kinda mixed drink.
some ppl say you don't know til you KNOW soo i guess it's all good. I'm not sure about that tho, i'll have to think about it.
Yeah...so that's my story for tonite. MMMMMMMMMMM corona, ewwwwwww Rickards.
The thing that I can't figure out is how the hell i ended up with beer when I wanted Cider?? Lol..soo much to think yet I don't really care.

INSIDE

I hadn't been clubbing in over a year! soo friday nite was a big deal in that sense...the day didn't go as planned though. First I missed out on King Kong with the Ching crew, then I missed dinner with them because family has a way of just showing up (uninvited, lol).
So, after all the missed times I had to do something to redeem myself. :)
What did i choose to do? I went to Inside nightclub.
It was some good times, after an hour in line and not getting guestlist price..still worth it.
Some friends i know from church were there too...Now i know that i'm a sinner, some of them could cause mischeif but for the most part, they were good.
I was worried about just how much of my clubbing antics would get back to the church on sunday, and i didn't think the things i did at a club would be the right things to discuss with our congregation but really everyone loves gossip.
All those thoughts quickly disappeared when I caught up with my good friend "Corona", LOL. After some quality time with my drinks, I didn't care who said what or where that what was said.
The club was good, music was good soo really it was just a good nite. Dancing, alcohol and good company = no complaints.

Church

Do you know the christmas story? NO? well you should have come to church with me today, lol. Every year the kids in our church put on a play for the congregation depicting Christ's birth. The kids really look forward to it, the adults too because it's one day the lil ones behave in church and not complain about how long the service is.
Today's pageant was different from the traditional one we always do, there was a REAL baby as Jesus and parents were all dressed up too.
I was director of the angels. It seemed simple enough, get them into their costumes (with wings of course), line them up and send them down the aisle when it was their turn.
One problem? I had script 1, and this morning they switched to script 2 :S
Soo, the angels missed their cue and a short-lived panic enveloped the directors.
Solution? Send them up with the wise men, and instead of singing their song, sing with the wise men.
When they got to the top of the stairs, one angel had to say "fear not...we're sent by God" BUT the littlest angel just looked to the back and pointed me out saying "noo noo, kelly sent us..she sent us late too!" LOL, little kids - gotta love their innocence.

overall it was good, nothing else was off except for my angels but really that was my special contribution to the play, made it quite memorable. :)

only one more week

It's almost Christmas time...yay. Lol, I love Christmas - really I doooooooo BUT today was one of those 'test-your-nerve-by-making-you-jump-thru-hoops' days soo just keep that in mind.

In my family (which is made up of a lot of ppl), we all look forward to seeing all the gifts under the tree and all the lights, decorations etc. The one part everyone dreads is actually delivering those presents. Why would someone dread that? Because there are soo many of them to drop off. Every household distributes about 50 gifts to the rest of the family...now really that's a lot of stuff. and when it's heavy glassware or breakable randomness, it's just sooo much more fun.
TODAYYY I not only had to deliver MY share, but gifts from two aunts as well as one of my uncles. Seriously, I drive a neon where did they think this would all fit?? OOh I also had a carload of ppl with me.
AND the highways were trafficky...leaving me no choice but to drive thru stupid slow streets that took me FOREVER to get into toronto, forever to get to each house there and forever to get back home.

Yes, right now there are still gifts sitting in the trunk of my car...some may even be in the garage. all i know is I'm inside, warm and content for the time being and nothing is gonna make me go deliver gifts tonite - nuthin, yo.

I guess even tho I can take dr.phil, even challenge oprah, SANTA-ing is far beyond my abilities. That old man has some serious skills, lol.

...santa?

forwards that jus won't stop, lol

[ Read this......As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken, probably more than once, and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt before because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. ]
