An Update Before Christmas

Everyday I intend to blog and then, I dunno, life just sweeps me up and carries me off. Or other silly things happen like internet signals get frozen inside of locked apartments. But, like the addict I am, I have found an internet cafe and have snuggled into a fake leather couch with my chamomile tea and my MacBook. Me and this computer have a love affair that puts The Notebook to shame.

So, what have I been up to since I have neglected my blog? Well, the movers have taken all my stuff away and left me to live on my one mattress in the bedroom. It is very crack addict chic. I have shopped way too much for someone that has no job and a brand new mortgage, but 'tis the season. I had a job taken away from me. Not to get into it too much, but a contract was offered to Leon and I and then a few days later retracted. They had offered me a very large amount of money to do very little and then had second thoughts about the logic of their decision. All in all I am kinda happy that it happened since I wasn't looking forward to uprooting again. Something tells me we have some very cool things waiting for us in Saskatchewan.

I have cramped a little from the IUD, like right now for instance, but it hasn't been too bad. I have consoled a friend who has just broken up with her boyfriend of five years and I have eaten more food than my ass knows what to do with. New Years resolution is gonna have something to do with eating less and exercising more. How original of me. Ummmmmm, what else? Oh, I saw Sweeny Todd and, though terribly impressed with the talent involved in the film, I hated it. The gore level is so extreme that I am now having nightmares like an eight year old child. I also saw a musical that Leon should have been in, but was not given. It was cute. Not as cute as Leon, but then again, what is?

I have sat in traffic and walked in rain. I watched a documentary about zoophillia. Ya, you should google it. There has been gift creation, apartment cleaning and time spent with in-laws. I will tell you what there hasn't been -- sex. Doctor told me that I should refrain from sex for THREE WEEKS and let the IUD take its time to settle in. Like it is a house guest that is sensitive to the sounds of love making. Ug. Ug. Ug. I like sex. Sex, at least the kind I have been having lately, makes it easier to get through the stress of a normal day. Sex lightens my mental and physical worlds. Sex is good and I ain't havin' it. Ah, well. Silver lining is that it frees up time to do other things. Like get an oil change.

Speaking of oil changes, I should go. Hopefully I will blog before Christmas, but if not, Merry Christmas. You all rock. Don't let the family get you down and by al means partake in eggnog. Eggnog and tangerines are the best part of the holiday.

Fa la la la la, la la la la.
