okay, so i know i went on a bit of a rant last time...but i just have two things to add...
caller id...just because you received a phone call from a number doesn't mean that the person on the other end was actually trying to contact you. if they don't leave a message, then it was probably not that important. the most ridiculous thing in the world is when i get a phone call from someone saying "um, someone there called me, do you know why?" of course i don't know! there are 15 people i work with, and most of them are clowns (okay, most of them are boys, and that explains everything) and they may have called you, and they may have accidentally dialled the wrong number, but if they didn't leave a message and you don't recognize the number, then chances are nobody on this end of the phone wants to talk to you! so don't call!!!
and my last one is that if i page a phone call for you, and you don't pick up, but the caller hangs up before i have a chance to get their name or take any sort of message, then i probably don't know who it is. if you ask me if they left a message, and i say the hung up before i had a chance to ask, don't get mad at me for them not having any patience. it's not my fault! i'm keeping track of the calls coming in and people aren't waiting forever to hear a human voice, so if they can't wait for me to come back and say you are busy, that is their problem, not mine!
okay, i'm finished ranting...lol, i know i know, it's all petty stuff, but it does get to a person. it's a good thing i have a short memory, and get over stuff fast!
and Joie, just to let you know, i finally finished my taxes...and it took me all of 30 minutes...i know, i procrastinate too much sometimes, but that's just the way i am...and you love me for it!
well, i'm working way to much, and not sleeping nearly enough, and trying to be somewhat healthy (okay, thinking about trying to be somewhat healthy), and trying to save some money, and trying to come up with some small but amazing trip to take Jon on for august long weekend, because he deserves a break and i love him and i want us to have a little vacation for the two of us. just got the best email from my little sister who is living in Ireland. i'm still completely jealous of her, but at the same time i don't know if i could handle the crazy life she is living. i would definitely not get as much enjoyment out of it as she is! but i'm so proud of her, and she's going to have memories that will last a lifetime!
and i'm reading my crazy long books again. i like them so much! it's so hard to put them down. i wonder if Joie's mom would be willing to part with them for a while...i know that she finds them a little overwhelming...but i love every second. i am a lot like Jon in what i like to read...he always feels like a geek when trying to explain his video game to me, so this weekend i sat him down and started to explain this series that i'm reading, and now i know how he feels, cuz i felt like a comlete dork myself. but if he liked reading, this is something that he would totally enjoy! it would be so neat if someone was to make a movie out of these books, but they would be a million hours long...for each book...and there are 10 or 11 books in the series right now...ya, i don't think that's going to happen. i'm also watching the complete star wars set right now...i'm on movie #5. i'm a geek, i know. at least i'm willing to admit it.
i've been looking into real estate in calgary. just to see what's out there. won't be looking for anything seriously till at least the winter...probably december or january. i know that i told my boss i would stay till march...but i don't know if i can last that long...every weekend when i have to say goodbye to Jon and to my friends and family it gets harder and harder...i don't know what's different, but maybe it's just that i'm in calgary a lot more now and there is way too much to do and way too many people to see in such a short time. and i miss Jon so much. everytime something happens i want to tell him, and when i'm sleeping i search for him on the other side of the bed. i want to be able to enjoy a weekend without having to worry about the travel time. i don't get to rest on the weekends cuz i'm trying to fit a whole week into two days (and sometimes only one day). i don't know...i'll keep you all posted...wish i would just win the lottery or something...
well, i'm gonna go read or something...just relax...have to prepare myself for this weekend...working thursday friday saturday and sunday at oj's (including the monday to friday at eecol) and working a double shift on saturday...it's gonna be a long weekend, but probably very good for my wallet, so i can't complain.
later y'all!! love ya!
Lindsay
