if you ever need a quick and easy way to deflate your ego i highly recommend that you eat a bowl of chili and half a bagel before you go clothes shopping in your lunch hour. i suggest that you go to your favourite clothes store, where not a million years ago you fitted (very nicely) into a size 2, try on a few different pairs of pants in a size 4 and find that even they are snug.
buggar!

this whole �bringing to work the cds i wanted to play the day before� thing is not really working out for me. today i have an intense desire to have a butthole surfers music marathon. some girls get flowers delivered to them at work i want someone to deliver the whole bs discography to me (preferably decorated with bright balloons and ribbons).

if i wanted to be only 10 minutes late for work this morning i had 2 minutes to search through my cd collection to find the cds that i wished i had brought into work yesterday but didn�t manage to remember. this would have been a breeze 8 months ago when my idea of a fun night in was alphabetizing my music. unfortunately at this point in time the best chance i have of finding what i want is coming across the album 3 weeks later when i�m looking for something else (and then praying that the right cd is in the appropriate case!) anyway, exaggerations aside i did find 2 out of the 3 discs i was hunting for and i substituted the fugazi instrumental for the elusive dj shadow.
talking of music, last night at my body toning class the instructor suggested a number of cds we could work out to. i immediately voted for �the 80�s one. play the 80�s one (for the love of god please play the 80�s one)� which may sound like musical hell but was infinitely better than any of the other choices. in response to this a woman who was at least 20 years my senior piped up with, �we should let the youngsters choose� and looked towards a bunch of 16 year olds. hmmmm, i thought, while i considered the fact that this woman was not only bunching me in with oldies but also trying to deny me my 80�s chart topper dance remix fix. i don�t think this woman likes me all that much but i have no idea why not since most people usually like me fine until they really get to know me�although it could have something to do with the fact that earlier i had said that i prefer the performance center to the dance studio. she seemed very annoyed by this for some bizarre reason. in the end we did get the 80�s cd and it was musical hell. next week i guess i�ll let the �youngsters� choose.
so, after insinuating that his life (and therefore mine) would not be worth living if we didn�t drive up to whistler this weekend to go boarding, the coolest guy told me last night that he might have to work this weekend instead. he has a monday deadline for a proposal he is writing for some work in mauritius and the incentive to give up a days snowboarding is a trip to this island in the south indian ocean if he wins the work. the coolest guy is a senior economist at a transport consultancy which may not sound all that sexy but to me is very much part of what makes him so cool. basically i have big admiration for men who can maintain an impressive career while simultaneously having a passion for drink, snowboarding, music and computer games (and anything else that would ordinarily suggest that they haven�t yet hit maturity). on a more selfish note, if he wins the work, i wonder whether or not he'll let me go with him like the business trip to peurto rico :)
