just got back from my second (and last) day of Foodsafe Level 2. weeha. basically, I'm glad I'm a vegetarian, don't want to own /run a restaurant, thankfully passed the exam, have never drank so much tea in 2 days. (am also trying to get over an icky cold/cough). At least it's over now.
went and saw X-men 3 last night with friends from work - very good, kind of want to go see it again because I missed the part where another friend from work was an extra (the funeral scene, back row behind the Beast apparently) I was looking, but no dice. and it was worth waiting out the credits to see the little extra scene at the end. It doens't necessarily change the ending, but it does make it more interesting.
um... yeah that's pretty much it. my cousin Cayley is coming down this weekend for a wedding, and it will be great to see her. That's the one think that sucks about growning up and moving away, you don't get to see your family as much (I know some people move away for that reason, but I happen to like my family)

the green house is tilting dangerously, and I don't have the energy to fix it...

okay, so i know it's been awhile, there's no excuse, really. What can I say for myself, except that I've been busy with work, a new roomate, gardening, sunshine, and more work. just haven't really had the energy to extrapilate on my days. (Did I spell that right? just wanted to use a big word, heck did i even use it right?) :) anyway, I've read some good books - Sweetness in the Belly, A Reciepe for Bees, and i'm in the middle of The God of Small Things. built a "greenhouse" with Julie... which is still standing, to our surprise.

missing Tara who is now starting her long bike journey (GO TARA GO!)
went to my friend Michelle's 40th surprise birthday party - quite enjoyable


got sick, along with Julie, so we've been watching alot of movies and whining - good times all around.
am very excited about going home next week for a little visit. The parent's finally sold our house, so it will be the last visit... :(

Just found out that my friend, whom I've known since birth, is pregnant, and getting married! and I get to be her maid of honour! eek! very exciting.
oh yeah, went to a Joel Plaskett Emergency concert, which rocked ass! good times were had.
Other than that, just some random animal sightings: deer on quadra street at 7am, a funny looking duck waddling down west saanich road, several wild rabbits, a couple turkey vultures, a bald eagle, and lets not forget the roadkill - :(
