I have finally got a blog!!!  I am hoping by next christmas i’ll be able to start a new blog with a bit more spicy username.   

I had to start this blog because i need a new pass time.  When I am bored at work now i sit and search facebook, reading profiles of old friends and people i had crushes on but it really is not satisfying. Every person lists their credentials, the cool movies they’ve watched, the hip bands but they never says anything about the break-ups, the drama, or about life.  I guess that isn’t the purpose of facebook but that is the stuff i am curious about.  I can’t relate to all the pictures of new babies and recent weddings (or not so recent weddings..why do people do that?).  And i am embarrassed of the picture i have posted.  Its me alright..but when I weighed 30lbs less (quit smoking — dying of heart attack now instead of cancer).

Plus…i hate how all these people from my elementary and junior high in Lloydminster keep adding me as friends on facebook.  They now have 10 kids, managing dollar stores and gas stations and write messages like “Holy F%$#, Where the F#$# have you been. I almost S$#$ my pants when i saw your F%$$#$@ name on facebook.  How the $##@ are you.” 

 Plus. i had to start a blog to rant about the legal secretary dealing with my condo sale.  For 4 days i have been leaving her messages (2 yesterday) asking her to call me back because i haven’t signed any paperwork.  The last message i left went something like “please call me back..i am only 27 and can’t deal with this stress…you need to call me back or ‘else’”.  Now i am panicking that she just won’t ever call me back because now i’ve threatened and harrassed her. 

However, while writing this entry Darlene, the legal secretary, did write me back and apologized for not calling me back. SHe had appointments with specialists and a family member died.  Embarrassed i am. 

I think i need sedatives.  When you get excited and crazed about Charles Taylor or Rawls in grad school people think you are entertaining and want to have coffee and smoke with you.  In the real world i could get myself arrested for compulsively fixating on situations until i solve the problem.

 Now i should start work. i am actually busy at my new job although my old habits are hard to overcome.
