8 Days Left in BC
One thing about flow...when it all starts happening, it happens fast.
In celebration of this whirlwindy (thank you again Kyle for that word) space I am in, here is a whirlwindy blog post. Random thoughts racing through my mind:
Might leave a day or two early, depending on my rehearsal schedule in Regina. Just found out my niece Emma and her mom are moving to Yellowknife in a couple of weeks. This has made me slightly sick to my stomache as I hardly see her as it is, but when will I ever see her when she lives in Yellowknife??!! So, If I leave middle of next week, I can stay in Calgary an extra day or so and bond with my sweet girlz. This has also spurred me into trying to fly mom down to cow town to meet up with me AND now I am told that I may need to swing by Kamloops to pick up Emma on my way though as she is there right now for a family funeral. Logistical nightmare. Ug.
Have reduced my bills well. Fido is the only one that I will still have to find $30 a month to sustain, but that is okay. Oh, and I found subletters. Can't believe I didn't type that first. Denise and Andre are from Europe and are checking out Canada and I adore them!! I could not have found better subletters...which is another example of this wonderful flow thing. Yay! They will be here until Christmas, if not longer, and take over rent plus my internet bill. Perfection.
Went on a date last night which is kinda fruitless in light of my leaving in a week. But he has been pretty great and I felt a date was due. I know, I know, this doesn't really stay in keeping with my 'righting off men until I'm 35' plan, but he was easy to talk to and very...scorpio. Aidan was a scorpio. I enjoy the intesity. I won't get a chance to see him again before I leave with everything and everyone else that I am attempting to make time to see...but I am glad I went. Terrifying and all, It is good to keep taking baby steps forward.
Which spurs me onto the next paragraph which is that I spent lots of time with Jordan this past weekend. We even went and watched Pat curl in New West on Saturday. Perhaps Jo (and I) feel safe hanging out because we know that I am leaving and potentially leaving for a long time. But what can I say? The man was my best friend for a very long time and hanging with him feels as natural as breathing. It holds some danger, I am not delusional, because I know that I am not 100% over him and would probably embrace the chance to try again if he ever wanted to...and knowing that he does not want to leaves me careful and conscious. Still, I have moved on enough to not be overly overthrown by these feelings and as long as I don't have to hear about him loving on some other woman, time with him is ... yummy.
I feel a little beaten down with all the right-brained planning and organizing. I woke up with a sore throat this morning and a bit of a cough...so I am trying to allow myself to not get too control-freaky and might spend the rest of the day talking a walk in the sun, renting some Scrubs perhaps and laying low. Lots and lots to do tomorrow.
Oh, and I get to head to Whistler this weekend to finally cash in on Eric's bday gift to me!
Sun beating in my patio door and warming my toes while I lay in my one and a half chair typing on my beloved iBook. HOLY MACARONI I AM BLESSED BLESSED BLESSED.
Done being whirlwindy.
Peace out.
