Adi's Life

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Last night my boyfriend asked me if I'd pick him up a case of 18 bottles of Canadian on the way home from work. So, sure, no problem I did this. Now this usually isn't something to write about, but in this case it is.

I get to just outside his door. Since I can't open the door when I'm holding the case with two hands I figured that I would hold it with one hand and use the other to open the door. Now this usually isn't a problem. Well, this case of beer desides to rip and fall to the ground.

Six bottles were broken. It was a big huge mess. There are still some shards of glass outside his door and the whole hall stinks like beer.

What a waste of perfectly good alcohol.

Yes I do still count things in sleeps.

In 8 sleeps my mom and grandma are going to be here. I am so so excited and can't wait to see them. I have not seen any of my family since I have moved up here. This has sucked because I have alot of family and we are all pretty close.

My mom and grandma are going to be here for five nights. I work the day they get here and then the day after and then I get three days off. Their flight leaves before I have to go to work on the day I leave so I will get to drop them off at the airport. It should be lots and lots of fun.

Eeek! It is only an hour away from my first candle party. My nerves are getting to me. I have almost everything set up. Know just to go through my stuff and jot down some important notes on what I'm going to say. I don't want to stand up there and look stupid because I forgot everything. Now to concentrate on breathing and calming my nerves.

So its been snowing for a couple of days now. It is gross an disgusting. I think it is just too early for this stuff. When I think of snow I think of Christmas. This is confusing me since there is snow and it hasn't even been Halloween yet. What is with this. I hope it will go away before it stays around permanently. I hate driving in it. When I went into town today the highway wasn't too bad, but the streets in town, gross. I was driving up the main street and I slid about three or four times.

Next week I'm getting winter tires put on my car and getting a wheel alignment. It is going to cost me $550. This sucks. That is almost a whole paycheck just to my car.

The snow here is different though than the snow I'm used too. Here it is dry and light and fluffy. It blows around easily. Where I come from the snow is wet and heavy.

Here I am trying to break my way into the world of being my very own boss. This is something I've always wanted. I'm having one hell of a start at it though.

Maybe I should explain the business.

I am going to be a Partylite consultant. It is candles and candle holders. All very good quality, very nice stuff. To get started I am supposed to have a party in my home and then I'm supposed to have about five party's in the two weeks after to get started.

My problem:
I can't seem to get ahold of anyone I know. So far Erin is coming, her sister, and hopefully her coworker. My boyfriends boss' wife was going to come but she has to work, she still wants to get some stuff though. She also said she is consdering booking a party for next month. I don't know who the hell else to invite.

I had told the person who is coming to help me with the first show and giving me the stuff I need that I would be able to get lots of people and shouldn't have problems getting bookings.

Hopefully today I will get all my info and stuff that is supposed to of been sent to me in the mail.

Tuesday is creeping up awefully fast.

I figured I should let everyone know that yes, I did talk to my boyfriend. I told him that I'm not ready to live with him. He reacted how I expected him to react, he was a bit mad. We talked and talked. He understands that it is too soon and that this is a big step. He agrees to wait until I'm ready. He was upset that I didn't tell him sooner and had given him the impression that he could move with us when really he wasn't going to be. So we've talked about alot and everything is all good between us.

Since then he was talking to a friend of his and they are going to look at getting a place together in town. I think that would be really good. Then we will be close to each other and both be able to do the things we like and I won't have to drive to visit him.

Happy Thanksgiving! Yes, here in Canada it is Thanksgiving weekend. Today me and Erin are going to cook a dinner for ourselves and our boyfriends. Originally we were going to do a turkey dinner. But we decided instead to do a ham dinner. We figured there was just too much to buy to do the turkey dinner. Our menu tonight will consist of ham, scalloped potatoes, cream corn and a mustard sauce. It should be incredibly yummy.

I'm am so excited, yesterday we found out that we have gotten a place for December 1st. It is going to be so great to move and live in town. This totally made my day. It is such a nice place and we will be the first to live there.

The one thing that sucks is that about two weeks ago I finally unpacked everything I brought, now I am going to have to pack it all up again. But oh well, it will definately be worth it.

Yesterday Erin and myself went and looked at an awesome townhouse. It is so nice, not to mention new. We put in our applications and hopefully we will get it for December first. A couple of the really nice features are that there is two floors wich means nobody below or above us, there is one and a half bathrooms wich means two toilets, there is a washer and a dryer wich means no paying to do laundry, there is a dishwasher so less having to wash dishes. It seems like it would be an awesome place. Another great thing would be the few minute drive to work every day, being in town and closer to do everything.

The downside to moving, my boyfriend thinks he is moving with us. WHAT THE FUCK! I never told him he could move. I did tell him that he could live there but I didn't mean right away. He knows I not ready for this, he even told me so a week ago, but this weekend all of a sudden he is moving to town with us. I hadn't even told him we were looking at a place and he was telling the landlord that he may be moving out. Then he said that if one of our apartments gives notice that she can take it as notice for both as he is moving to town with us. I had assumed that he had said this because he had overheard Erin telling her, but no, he told first.

When I told him last week that we had the idea to move he got totally mad even when I told him that we didn't even have plans, we were just talking about it. Basically it boils down to it would be a 'long distance' relationship, and those don't work so well aparently. Long distance my ass, it would be 15 minutes apart. He thinks that I would never want to come and visit him, I would, and I told him this, maybe just not every night. He figures I will start going to the bar all the time. Even if I did, what he couldn't come with me? And ya I pry will go to the bar more considering I never go now. Before I moved here I went to the bar on average a couple times a month and weekends I didn't go out I would usually hang out for a couple drinks after work. I do not do this now because it is too far away. So yes I will be going out more but I should have a life.

Then as we get talking I said to him that we won't see each other every day for the rest of our lives as there are times when he may go somewhere without me or vice versa. My example was me going to visit his family or him going to visit his, but he didn't seem to get this.

So now I have to go and talk to him and tell him that I'm not ready to move in. I don't think he will take this well. I was going to talk to him tonight but by the time he came home it was late and I was on the computer and I asked if I could come over in ten minutes or so when I was done the game, but he said he was going straight to bed as he has to work early.

On a happy good note KYLE COMES TOMORROW:) Yay!!!!! Hope he has a safe trip:)

I've been trying for the last couple of days to think of something to write and haven't really come up with much. That is until I opened and email tonight. This email was from someone I have known since the beginning of Junior High. He is totally awesome. I probably haven't seen him in a year but occasionally we talk online. This email I got from him was sent out to help spread the word about a website that was just started up not too long ago and he is the editor of. As soon as I read this I figured I would include it in my blog to help spread the word. Now I know it is not something most of you will go to, but just in case here it is.

Just so I don't have to describe it, this is the email I received:
