Narcissm....

So in case anyone cares, here's the stuff i got done from my TO DO list awhile back:

- go to post office, mail Syl's package and the CD for Julie, Jen's stuff

- Shop Target: kitty litter, gel blush, airwick

- Contact that Jeff guy about refinancing the Home Equity line of credit

- Get a hold of broker to mail out Life Insurance paperwork

- Go to safe deposit box and get green card paperwork and passport (well...going after work today)

- send mom mother's day card

- wrap Ryan and Nicole's wedding gift (it's huge, i'm not wrapping it...i'm getting Williams Sonoma to do that 'cause heck, that's what you're paying 'em for...although Ryan said he didnt' care if I wrapped it in free Babies R Us wrapping paper which i think would be super funny if i did that) doing that after work today

- deposit that $340 check

And only 'cause I want to waste time...from Norm's myspace thingy (damn i hate myspace...i can't believe they actually have a myspace PHONE for eff's sakes):

1. Worst damage you ever took in a fight?
Black eye, massive bruising in various spots, and almost an effing coronary...

2. Most money you ever owed a utility company?
Probably not much...like $100+?

3. Last time you got kicked out of a bar?
I'm a girl. They don't kick us out of bars.

4. Longest time you slept in a car?
Oh geezus I've slept HOURS in a car...all the time. The average is like 3 hours. Probably the max...i dunno, 4-5 hours?

5. Most messed up nickname you've ever been given?
Libby. Don't ask.

6. Worst job you ever had?
Let's see, i've had like 27 jobs in 19 years...and the worst was for the first company I worked for in the Bay area. Yeah you heard me. Working for a tech company made me cry EVERY day and i've worked at McDonald's...I've done housekeeping and yardwork...but that one company was so awful and I couldn't quit for one whole year.

Second worst: Travelodge. Yeah the hotel. To top it off I was dating a coworker (I went through a phase where no matter what the job, i dated or slept with my coworker..wtf. Recommendation: don't sleep with a coworker if you require a uniform as part of yuor job...total libido killer) but since we had alternate shifts the only time we could see each other was after 11pm. You know what you do after 11pm when you both live with your parents? Not much. The kicker was when he took a vacation day on Canada Day and then *I* had to work his stupid shift as a result!


7. Shortest job you've ever had?
I've had a few jobs that were around 2-3 months.

8. Longest romantic relationship?
I've beeen with Kraig since March 2, 2001...but i guess pre-marriage it would be almost 4 years with someone else (I was only with kraig like 1.5 years before he proposed)....

9. Shortest romantic relationship?
Well geezus let's see...3 minutes making out with someone in a bar during a song? I mean, define "romantic"...okay where you actually know the person's name?...sorry Bryan...1 week in Grade 8...lol.

10. Food that you would eat til you puked?
POUTINE!!! But since I can't get that in the US...hmmm...pizza I guess...or Indian (because it's not authentic if you don't eat 10 servings of indian like the Aunties would make you do...)..

11. Food that even looking at makes you puke?
Anything with pesto and/or goat cheese. I got food poisoning off (ironically) some California Pizza somewhere in Ottawa and that's what came up...gughgh.

12. What music saved your life?
Alot of Madonna...i know, retarded, but she's been around my entire life and has had enough phases to cover EVERYTHING.

You know what else is good? Effing Britney Spears' STRONGER song. That came up around the time Adam and I broke up...to this day it can inspire me through ANY workout.


13. Person you miss the most in the world?
ALL my friends in Canada. Lately I've really really been missing Christine, but seriously pretty much all of them. It's like getting your roots cut off. Ha...ROOTS...get it...okay probably not.

14. Worst movie you've ever seen?
That effing train movie with Wesley Snipes. I walked out, went to watch Indecent Proposal for like half an hour, came back to tell my friends about it, and had almost the entire theater listening to my plot synopsis of the OTHER movie instead of watching the one we actually paid to see.

Otherwise...i think i either fell asleep or walked out of Fear and Loathing in Las VEgas...blegh. Got X-rated with aforementioned Travelodge Boyfriend during that crappy Alicia Silverstone one (Excess Baggage) (tips to guys: want to get play from your woman? Take her to see a horrible movie. A blowjob is STILL better than watching a bad, bad BAD movie in the theater). YELLED at another boyfriend for hours for taking me to see Eyes Wide Shut.


15. Best movie you've ever seen?
"Best" is different than one that I totally love. I adore Clueless but that's not the "best" movie...so ones that I think are very well done...Joy Luck Club...Desperado...Pride & Prejudice...actually V for Vendetta was very well done...

16. Craziest shit you've ever done sober?
Define crazy...i mean, crazy is based on where you are in life at the time. Sober...my friend and I had a system for stealing other people's assignments out of the bins int he computer science hall...now, not a big deal. Back then, EASILY expulsion from the university. Sober...having s*x in public places...which actually the only reason i wouldn't do that now is 'cause i don't want to lose my green card. Sober...speeding like a mofo because i'd rather risk DYING than get my ass kicked by my parents for being late.

17. Ever almost die?
Not that I can recall.

18. Ever fistfight a member of the opposite sex?
fistfight, no, punch, yes.

19. Best place you have ever lived?
Selkirk, Manitoba.

20. Worst place you have ever lived?
Define" worst"...i mean, the OC is wayyy overpriced and that effing sucks. But...hmmm i'd say...Tracy, California....

21. Bad habit you have had for the longest time?
Does being unrefined count as a bad habit? I dunno...staying up late, going to the gym late, and then having serious issues getting up in the morning.

22. Noise that makes you want to punch people?
Norm, i gotta agree with yo...i can't STAND hearing other people eating. AND...when you're in a theater and you hear that slurping of their drinks or the opening of bags...ARHHHGHG open your frickin' bag before the movie starts!!

23. Your favorite tattoo?
I don't have any, and I don't want any anymore. I'm not down with getting them at this point in life (I have no issues if other people do...but i feel like I'm trying to capture my youth or something...let's be real people, I wasn't cool then and getting a tattoo certainly won't make me any cooler now.

24. Least favorite tattoo?
duh.

25. At your poorest, were you a ramen noodle or mac and cheez?
At my poorest I subsisted on Circus Animal Cookies. And i'm not kidding. But if i had to choose...mac and cheese.

26. Most money you have ever spent on a single meal?
A little over $100 at this joint in San Diego awhile ago. There was also this amazingp lace in Ottawa that was a little steep (also over $100) but it closed down. Both times without alcohol.

27. Best gift you ever got?
That's an awful question!

28. Best pet you ever had?
Listen, i love all my pets. I miss Smokey badly. But we all know Marmalade rules my life.

29. Ever run from the cops?
Actually, I did...and this makes me sound SO white trash but I was smoking on a weekend outside of my old high school. I DONT SMOKE...my friend convinced me,and we found an open door to get inside the locked school....and then the cops showed up and we ran like mofos. We didn't get very far...they still took our names down.

30. Money or health?
If it's Cancer + Billionaire vs. Peak Health + Homeless, i'll take money. But if it's like Crappy Health + BIllionaire or Peak Health + Current Money...oh eff that, who are we kidding...money.

Have a great Cinco de Mayo everyone!

Godammit!! I swear it was like 2 weeks!! :) Eh, still one of my fondest memories - you heartbreaker you. :) (I'm so kidding.) Mind you I think I have you to thank for making sure I didn't commit too many fashion faux pas's. :)

Can't say I've ever been chased by cops... Does that make me boring? :P

I have to admit not having you around here in Ottawa does suck but I like to think of it as loaning you to California. :)
