What's Outside Your Window?
This window is right beside my computer desk... yes half way up the picture.. there is a set of railroad tracks... whats even funnir is... that just past those leaves of the tree on the right is an intersection... where the trains have a stop sign... rather than the traffic...
The orange sign that you can see... is The Beer Store sign... yes for all of those Americans who thought I was a freak walking around with you saying... "damn I still can't believe y'all sell alcohol in the grocery store" we have seperate stores for beer and another called the LCBO (the Liquor Store)
This is the view out my window... a mailbox pick up for the mail carriers, the beer store, trees, railway, oh yeah and my air freshner that helps with the smell from my pot smoking and dealing neighbour ;)
So what do you have outside your window?

Oy Vey Doctors....
Alright so update is.. had two people go :O and get a little upset about the cutting of the hair... hey I needed a trim!
*laughs* to quote a friend of mine "a trim? 6-7 inches is not a trim!"
Anyway no Raistlan didn't faint.. I do believe I saw tears well up in his eyes tho... ;)
So yesterday I went to the doctors office for the dreaded PAP test...
it's taken three months of back and forth with the doctors office to get a freakin' appointment...
So we (Sis, Raistlan and I) all had appointments booked for yesterday morning...
oh yeah... morning! we all know how much I Loooove mornings...
so we drag our asses out of bed.. Sis picks us up at 9:30 ish... and we drive the 40 mins or so to get to the doctors office...
So as far as I remember Sis was booked for 10:30, Raistlan for 10:45 and myself for 11am
At 10 to 11 Recptionist calls Sis over to the window and asks if it would be ok if they rescheduled all of us to another day... the doc had surgery in the morning and he won't be in til 11:30 and would like to be out of the office again at 12:15pm...
So Sis givez them this look and turns to me and says "they want to reschedule all of us" I believe my first reaction was 'fuck that'... anyway... Sis goes off about how it's taken all of us months to get into see him to begin with, how she had to take work off and we were already there... had to say was applauding her...
So we waited... Keenan had to miss school because of it... but we just wouldn't have been able to get him to school...
So he ended up seeing the three of us and two other ladies and still got out of there with 10 minutes left to spare...
So yeah that was my yesterday... today I'm just chillin' I think I slept funny on my poor arm... my right arm and shoulder feel funny... right across the back of my shoulders over to the left shoulder...
nothing a good shower (after doing my hair) won't fix...

The Short And Long Of It....
You know that old song "I'm gonna wash that man right outta my hair" ?
I've changed it a bit today... my version of the song would be "I cut that man right outta my hair"
*laughs*
not that there was anyone I was cutting out of it but I could have made a bald man very happy this morning... coulda made a full toupee out of the hair I cut...
I'm not even sure exactly how much I cut like in inches wise... but I do know that I'm not used to it being this short...
I used to have problems tucking it into my pants... lol... not anymore... lol
Raistlan doesn't know yet... he came home from his doctors appointment and it was still up in a towel...
*laughs*
keep your fingers crossed that he doesn't faint ... ;)

Please Take The Barb Out...
I think I know what that 80 year old guy and Steve Irwin felt when they got shot in the chest by stingrays...
I've felt like I have a big nasty barb in my chest, imbedded deep enough that it's piercing my heart... my heart has been acting crazy the last couple of days... it feels like it's going to thump right out of my chest and other times its so soft that even with a stethoscope you could barely hear it... and hurt... omg it hurts... especially when it's thumping and when I'm breathing... or should I say trying to breathe... I need someone to come take this barb out of my chest...
Maybe the hurt will stop soon...

Name Those Tunes
It's a vain pursuit, but it helps me to sleep
Looking for a place to happen
making stops along the way
Are you breathing? no.
Do the wicked see you
Youre still grieving
Youre making me numb
She, who is wanting me
Whose touch can make me cry
I can only understand
By never asking her why
Hear the contradictions fly
And as hard as I may try
Every truth becomes a lie
And once again she calls to me
Then she vanishes in thin air
And how she takes my breath away
Pretending that she's not there
Feel the break and I got to live it up,
Oh, yea huh, well I swear that I.
What I really wanna know, baby,
What I really want to say I cant define.
That love make it go
Told me that my hair was red
He told me i was beautiful and came into my bed
Oh i cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors and the yellow light
He told me that i'd done alright
and kissed me till the morning light
I know a girl who reminds me of cher
Shes always changing
The color of her hair
She dont use nothing
That ya buy at the store
She likes her hair to be real orange
She uses tangerines
Favored signs to find hope
In the rounds of life
Favored rhymes to find hope
In the sands of life
You build me up then you knock me down.
You play the fool while I play the clown.
We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
You raise my hopes then you raise the odds
You tell me that I dream too much
Now I'm serving time in disillusionment
I don't want to lose him
He must be worth losing
If it is worth something
When they pull you under
And I would give you anything you want
Well all I wanted
All my dreams have fallen down
It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes
Oh no, the world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon ... in me
bill barilko disappeared that summer, he was on a fishing trip the last goal he ever scored won the leafs the cup they didn't win
another until 1962, the year he was discovered, I stole this from a hockey card

Happy Early Thanksgiving
man oh man I should wake up with techno every morning...
So last night we had thanksgiving dinner at my mom's house... mom's going away for the weekend so we dined together a few days early... that and we thought we were going to go up north today for the weekend... but... we're not.
So I was thinking in the van on the way down to mom's house about all the things I'm thankful for... yeah sometimes we do that at the table... so I was preparing myself ahead of time... lol
So we only half sorta did it last night.. so I figured I'd come home and do it here today... kinda early since thanksgiving is on Monday... but hey nothing like being prepared.
I'm thankful for...
My boys... my friends... most of my family as dysfunctional as the entire thing is... having a roof over my head...
I'm thankful that the doctors tried to make me 100% again...
Hope all the Canadians have a Happy Thanksgiving on Monday...

Blondes Don't Have More Fun, Let's Try Red!
So.... here's me with dark red hair... it'll be staying for as long as I can get it too... yep thats me... always up for a dramatic change... that last post was two really good songs.. sorry I forgot to include the names... I Will Remember You by Sarah Mclachlan and Violently Happy by Bjork...
Anyway... I love the red hair so don't let the pic fool ya... this was just me while waiting for what ended up being two hours... lol I have a couple others... yeah I know the shit I do when I'm bored... I take photos of myself being bored... but anyway...
not much new going on here... we've all been battling sickness... Keenan's not feeling well now... first was me... now him.. and I'm still not even 100%...
when I'm bored for fun I hang on irc and have been playing in trivia rooms... whoever knew that a platypus couldn't see under water... *shrugs* I didn't... but hey these are the things ya learn on irc trivia... the mush has fallen to the wayside a bit for me... because wow ... who knew those people could get so petty and argumentative and gossipy about each other... oh well... I'm sure I'll go back eventually...
it's been a month since we've been in Georgia... and we both miss it immensely... I still haven't sent out my thank ya's... ay yi yi if my mother knew... shhh ;)

so yeah when thanksgiving is done we worry about halloween while when yours is finished y'all worry about christmas coming next... yeah I know fucked up isn't it...
the cool thing is tho... 2 years ago... wow that long ago already??? anyway... two years ago I had thanksgiving here and then flew to chicago in november and had thanksgiving with the lovely Anna Banana... was hoping we could afford to go out to chicago again this year... but sorry Banana no surprise visit next month :( that last vacation just drained us... so you can blame it on Jamie ;) he's got big shoulders he can take it :D lol ;)
Raistlan freaked me out the other day... for all of those who are truly my friends and have been here since the beginning might understand why it freaked me out a little... but anyway... went to go see Betty Ford on saturday night... (btw No more Grape and Wine Festivals for Dave before singing) and he leans over and says too me... 30 days til our 8th anniversary... yikes eh?!
I've had shoes last 8 years... shirts that lasted 8 years... kids that have lasted 8 years... animals that lasted 8 years... but never a relationship.... wowzers...
Anyway.. I have to get ready to go... tis that time oof year again... Lions has started... must go to a meeting tonight...
