A good quote from Katie

So, Katie and I went to go see "Superbad" on opening night, and while trying to find parking (which was PACKED) we'd keep thinking we had found a spot, but instead, a little car was occupying the space.

This is when the darling Ms. Stein said this:

"I want to own a little car, so that I can crush people's hopes"

Good ambitions there! ;)

14,900 unread emails

I just checked an email account I had sort of forgotten about, that was used mainly when I was trying to find furniture and stuff for my apartment and I signed up for Freecycle.

The last time I checked it was in February ... and since then I've accumulated almost 15,000 emails. And it took me about 10 minutes to delete them all.

Oi!

Damned if I do, damned if I don't.

I just want to stop crying.

nosy neighbours are morons

So, I work for a Real Estate company, we sell houses ... many houses we sell are vacant.

Here is a story about such a house.

Once upon a time (as in yesterday) we listed a house and put a for sale sign up, no one lived in it, so we put on a lockbox so that agents, who have booked an appointment, could go view the house.

Then the lovely receptionist of the said real estate firm received a call, the conversation went like this:

Nosy Neighbour (NN):"I call about ABC house on DEF street"
Lovely Receptionist (LR): "Okay, I can have the agent paged he is not in the office"
NN: "No, no, I call police just now. I see two people I never see before go into house, I think breaking in"
LR: *exasperated* "That is an agent, with his client, he has authority to be there, the house is being sold"
NN: "No, I think bad person, bad person might set fire"
LR: *shocked pause*
NN: "The police just pull up, bye bye" *click*
LR: "Crap" *calls listing agent, can't reach him, 5 minutes go by*
Random agent who is showing the house: "Um, can you talk to the police and let them know I'm not breaking in ..."

I am at the point of exhaustion ... but my mind doesn't rest.

Its but all I can do, the only prayer I can pray ...

I love You Lord
And I lift my voice, to worship You
Oh my soul rejoice!
Take joy my King, in what you hear.
May it be a sweet, sweet sound, in your ear.


Praise Jesus.

Ya know, the addage is true

Money doesn't make you happy.

I won a small amount from Lotto 6/49 today, but I'm verging on crying.

I hate when things just hit you, and you have no control, and you feel guilty for feeling the way you do.

It blows. It sucks. And I'm tired of fighting it.

Venting and Ranting

So, I've realized the downfall to having a last name that starts with "A" and enterphones in apartment lobbies that are hooked up to my cellphone (my only phone).

That being, that on the occassion, I have someone dial my entry code to try and gain access to the apartment building as I am the first person on the list. I don't let them in, because I don't think they should be trying to use me in the first place, and I am usually not even in the building at the time.

Well, the other night I was enjoying a lovely night of sleep when my phone began to vibrate ... I looked, bleary-eyed at my clock, it was 2:30am and then at my phone and recognized the number as being the front door, and so I picked it up:
me: hello?!
person: hey, can you let me into the building my buddy isn't picking up.
me: no, asshole! *hangs up phone*

Who does that? Who is that inconsiderate, you don't know me, its fricking 230am, I don't care if your buddy isn't around ... ITS 230AM! And I was having an awesome dream.

I know some people might ask "why did you pick up the phone in the first place?", well because it could have been my brother ... he has a troubled home life with his commonlaw and it wouldn't be unexpected to have him show up my door in the middle of the night.

To quote someone, the more people I meet the more I like my cats.

Ireland trip forecast

Rainy with a chance of not going :(

Since apparently I don't have two weeks off a year, its only one and I already took that week in February. And both Paula and Elmyra (my co workers) are going to be in school in the fall, and so, my shifts might not be able to be covered.

But, we'll see what happens.

Sarah's gross

So, I'm on the phone with her ... talking about lovely things like maybe one day being roomies. And the conversation goes something like this:

Sarah: And I can keep to myself when there is a sock on the door.
Jamie: haha, ya... I'll be like 'sarah, go to your room and turn the music on really loud
Sarah: really loud, i'll block my ears
Jamie: And i'll just hear you from the other end of the apartment say, 'what, what do you want', 'sarah, i'm not calling out your name'
Sarah: 'what, you want me to do what?'
Jamie: and you'll say 'what, do what harder'?
Sarah: haha, oh, that'll be fun.

So ... Sarah's idea of fun is overhearing me have sex? -.^
