MyRon vs MoRon

I tell ya.. this morning did not go well at all! If it could go wrong it did.

1. MyRon (or MoRon) tried to yell at me about something that he really had no clue about. Which mad him even matter when I called him on it... which in effect got me into more trouble. Ass.

2. A job that was completed early last week got lost in Shipping so I had to ask Deb to print it again.. and then after I'd given the new one to shipping she called to tell me she hadn't completely trimmed it so I had to get it back again and trim it. ass.

3. The Indigo broke. Again.

4. I tripped on the telephone wire and snapped it in two while Mike (the indigo operator) was on the phone with tech support trying to fix it.

5. Quality Control fucked up a very important order so now I have to reprint it again. all 38 prints.

Really thats it. But it really seemed terrible at the time because it was all happening at once. yeah.

So i went shopping last night before dragon boating and bought a wonderfully darling white summer dress to wear to lindsay's birthday.. it soo pretty. I heart it. It makes me look even more tanned! (I know.. I'm obsessed with being tanned now. But for the record.. everyone out here is tanned.... so I'm not the only crazy one.)

I then proceeded to dragon boating and yelled my face off... and now i have no voice. which is fine.. cause I don't feel like yelling or being upset today.

The end. Working in china tonight.. boooo. so working here (CIP) then tanning then eating then china. and then laundry. yarg. I just need to do laundry! sob

10 more days!

Monday, July 16, 2007

Only I would end up in Naniamo in the middle of the night.

My lord is been a busy week! Where oh where to begin....

Thursday!
I am dragon boat drummer! HAHAHAHAH
No really.
I went with Melissa and Guathio (sounds like squato) to dragon boating and as it turns out I get to sit at the front of the boat and yell things and beat a drum. Funkin hilarious if I don't say so myself. Sadly there are no hot guys on the team. BUT there are races at the end of August where I've been guaranteed good looking, tanned, hot, sweaty men. bah.

Friday!
Melissa and I decide we are going to hot yoga. I don't know if any of you have every been to hot yoga.. but try doing an hour and half yoga class in a room with 30 other people in it in about +40 degree sunshine. You got it. It stinks. And your sweating. And you starring at the guys next you's sweaty balls. (no joke. I saw droplets form and fall off). We walked out of there with clothing feeling like i've just stepped out the ocean (the ocean instead of a pool because of all of the salty film left after sweating.) It was hard! I was a hurting unit afterwards EXCEPT just before we went to go to Yoga, Lindsay, my friend from Vancouver called and convinced me to come to Burnaby for the night / next day.

So i race home after yoga have the coldest shower available to mankind before you catch phenomia and then race to the liquor store and onto the 9pm ferry. I finally arrive in Vancouver to realize I dont REALLY know where I'm going. I then proceed to get lost in Vancouver until roughly midnight? lol. When I finally arrive at Lindsays she's got half the Irish FIFA soccer team and their friends in her backyard absolutely sloshed. lol. SO funny. and most of them just happened to be good looking and funny. I may in fact have suggested a large jammy party in my futton. lol. ANNYways... it was a very funny night which concluded in me pulling my pants down in the street... puking for an hour... seeing a fat mans weenie as i pushed him out of my bed... and then passing out. lol. I wish there were pictures. lol.

Saturday morning Lindsay and I spend the morning suntanning in her backyard as her boyfriend searched for her missing cat (who codincidentally was really just hiding under the sofa all morning) and then we went on an adventure to the beach in North Van. It was an ocean beach. The kind where you see starfish in the water when your trying to brave the cold. Needless to say I'm a warm water swimmer so I didn't get in on purpose. Lindsay's friends had brought a skidoo of some sorts so I get on with Lindsay driving. We were doing soo well.. until we fell off going 90 miles an hour. She landed right on top of me and we tumbled and drown for like 10 more yards. We had to swim like 25 yards in friggin ice cold water to get back to the damn ski doo. It was fucking hilarious tho. So the beach had bands playing so we dried off and baked for a while longer listening to the band when I remembered I was supposed to go to my work bbq. OOOOPS. so mike (lindsays hot hot friend) gives me Directions to Horseshoe Bay Terminal which "apparently" goes to Swartz Bay outside of Victoria. Not a fucking chance. I end up on a damn ferry going to Naniamo.. which happens to be 2 hours from Victoria. So I didn't go to the BBQ. lol. I got home at like 11:30. SO funny. Shit like that only happens to me.

Sunday I tried to go the gym when I realized that when I got onto the eliptical.. that my legs... thighs... ass.. lowerback.. and shoulders didn't work very well. In fact not at all. I walked like I'd been anal raped by a telephone pole all day. lol. So i worked 10:30 to 7 in China.. then went to Melissa's for asain dinner in which her landlords made for us.. consumed a couple bottles of wine.. then drove home and went to bed. It was a friggin action packed weekend to say the least. whewf.

Today I'm working 7-3:30 then tanning then eating then 5-9 then doing laundry.
Tomorrow I'm working 7-3:30 then dragon boating at 7 - 8:30
Wednesday; 7-3:30 then tanning then eating then 5-9
Thursday 7-3:30 work then dragon boating 7 - 8:30
Friday work 7 - 3:30 thenn OFF
Saturday and Sunday I'm in Vancouver all weekend for Lindsay's Birthday... which as funny as it is... the irish boys will be at too....

then the same routine next week AND THEN LEAVING ON NEXT FRIDAY FOR ONTARIO!!!!!
I'm sooo pumped to see you girls! Its eating me alive!

Hurray. So the goal is to get everyone something in Vancouver next weekend and some furniture for the place and thats it!
Love you all muchly... until next time!!

Sunday, July 08, 2007

Only my aunt calls to tell me I left a sock behind. Only mine.

Oh I'm terribly sorry my loves! It's been 15 days, or 360+ hours since I've last blogged.. but for purely good reasons.

Reason A.
I've decided to try and survive as long as possible without the internet/cable/home phone in my apartment. Not only for money reasons, but also because it forces me to read more, get out and see stuff, to be social and do more of those artsy fartsy things I never seem to have time for. lol. And also because thats an extra $80+ bucks a month that i can spend on decorating and crafty things.

Reason B.
I've been sooooo busy at work(s) that there isn't time for sneaking about on the internet. And believe you/me, I want to sneak about about write to about the last two weeks adventures!

Reason C.
With all this moving business.. I just haven't had time.

On with the stories you say? TAAAADA!

Love Life - Obviously the least important but the most interesting.
I don't like Matt. In fact, we couldn't be friends even because he has no personal convictions. But here I am.. doing dinner and movie with him tomorrow.. because he's one of those people that is so shy that when he grows the balls to ask you can't say no. Damn in Amy.. i know how it feels to be in your relationship. lol. cept not as bad. lol. The last time we hung out.. it was by accident. It was Canada Day weekend.. and it was my last night in the crazies house. Melissa and I ended up at Allen's house as he was having a shindig and matt happened to be there. To be completely honest.. they are the most imbred hicks I think i've come across... and I grew up in bracebridge and went to school in belleville! Their life is soley consumed by drugs and alcohol. Their house is a run down shack that allens boss lets them live in for free in exchange for manual labour. They have no dreams, aspirations, talents, skills or interesting features. Obviously I didn't fit in, and understandably matt tried to make me have a better time by "bashing" the people at the party. What does that say about you as a person if you continue to go to parties that your supposid best friend holds and then spend the night trying to impress a girl by pretending you don't like anyone there? yeah.
On the good front.. my building has a number of decent looking boys/men that live in it.. I just have to figure out their schedules around mine. lol.

My new apartment - Obviously the most exciting news - but an on going project
Yes. I love it. I will live here until they tear this building down. Ok.. maybe not that long.. but i really do love it. When i get my new furniture i will post a few pictures on here.. right now it just looks empty considering i only own a bed. yup. no other furntiture. Although with the amount of books that I own I could probably building some furniture out of the them. I did however buy I a bed - which came last week... and then on saturday I baugh a condo couch and lounge. Its just amazing. you'll all be jealous when you come see me. You did notice the "when" in that last sentance. The couch is a dark chocolate brown.. and the lounge is a creme with brown and tourqouis swirls.. so i painted one wall tourquois. it might be the funniest thing ever. That or the fact that I baught a fish and named him cornelious cobknobler. its because his eyeballs stick out of his head and are black and look like knobs. lol. He always makes me laugh. lol.

My job - Part 1. The 50 year old men syndrom
MyRon has now made the executive desicion that I am in charge of scheduling everything in the damn company. Scheduleing alone will take me most of the morning - and then doing all of the indigo jobs - and then doing all of my printing - there just enough time in my day - not money in my paycheck for this. I must find an easier way to do this. Mike - the one with the permanent pantywad up his ass - has since recruited Galadriel - the nasty lesbian - so neither of them EVER talk to me. Not ever. Not a good morning. Not a "I broke my press". Not "Your a raging bitch stop talking to me". Nothing. I don't mind it.. except that when there are problems they never tell me so I am always wondering why jobs aren't getting done. Frustrating as hell. Jerks. But hey.. if they want to act like 10 year girls so be it.. i am there to do a job and so are they. If they do their job everything will be fine.

My job - Part 2. China
I have begun a crusade. Ok 2 crusades. One is to rid the world of pennies. I never give them out any more. lol. The second is the rid my air space of know it all crusty chinese women. You heard me. I am so over the crusty old chinese women telling me what to do.. when I have clearly worked there for two months and know what I am doing. One of the women rose got in my face when i was busy one day about putting something back on the shelf and i turned to her in the middle of my order and said "rose. if you have so much time to be over here telling me to do it, why don't you do it." so hasn't talked to me since. holly: 1 chinese women: 0. Next was Juilette. She came over one evening and asked if I would come take over til 2 so she could go home. I calmly said "juilette. there is no one here. I will wait until you are out of the til before I go over. I have worked this shift more than 40 times in the last two months. I know how it works". She then said "don't get bitchy with me. i sick of this fucking shit." i laughed. Holly:2 Chinese Women: 0. Only 8 more to go.

Other random News:

Ontario in t-minus 20 days!

Amy & Stace.. are we still meeting up in Calgary? Yes? No? Either way.. I am still gonna go that weekend to see my friend Jenn. She just called and we talked for like and hour. She's a crazy funny girl to be sure.

Oh. And the crazies called my cell phone the other day to tell me I left a sock at their house. Only MY crazies would call to tell me that.

Plans for tonight? SEWING! And ready.

They have 3 huge gyms, two pools (both of which I can't seem to find).. and they do all sorts of classes.. like dance and yoga and fitnes and all sorts of fun amazing things! I love it. And there are hot boys there.. not just old people! AND it only cost 30 bucks a month! Hurray. OH and its only 2 block away from my apartment!
