This is what V was singing today.
I don't have anything more to say.

My mom used to love this song. I swear that's the only reason I know it, I'm not old enough to be a Tom Jones fan.

SHOW STOPPER 2012
Isn't it beautiful?
7.5' tall. 10 light settings. Love it.
Apparently my ceiling is 8'.
I opted to decorate with ornaments that I already had, gifts from over the years and such. It's possibly the best SHOW STOPPER yet.
New Jacket
+10, V
Everyone around the office is LOVING my new jacket (but not as much as I do). Since I'm freezing today I guess I'll just have to wear it all day long, oh darn. Normally I'd just steal someone's space heater but J is having hot flashes and it just makes sense to wear the coat all day. Really, it does. I promise.

This morning as we drove to work V said "I think I'm getting a chest cold". It's time to start a tally because it feels like she says some variation of this every day.
Just got back from a trip to Calgary to visit my friend, M. It was great.
+10, V: I was sick with a cold last week.
-10, J: That's true.

"I have something to tell you, and you can't say anything..."
-10, J
The title of this post is what V said to me this morning. Knowing where she'd gone on the night of her birthday (and guessing that she'd gotten pretty loaded while she was there), I was pretty concerned about what this confession was.
To be honest, I wasn't even sure that I wanted to hear whatever she had to say next.
Watched White Irish Drinkers this weekend. It's a lot like that Ben Affleck movie where they rob banks, but it didn't have as much budget.
If you go to 1:17 of this clip, you'll see what my roommate tried to reinact this weekend...minus the person considering suicide...really, just the song. It was awesome.

So there I am, second row, screaming (and I mean screaming) at the cowboy who was undressing before my eyes. By the end he was fully undressed. Only a few do that, so my eyes were really glued to the stage. Only after the show was over and I saw him fully clothed at the DJ booth did I recognize him as a guy from the small town where I grew up. I put a lot of thought into whether or not I should go over and see if it really was him. After standing and staring for at least a full minute, I couldn't do it. Turns out I didn't have to cause he came up to me and said "I thought I recognized you" I was mortified and could only respond as my drunk self would allow in total shock "Oh my god, I screamed for you...I didn't know it was you. Well at least you have a big weiner, good for you."
He and I are bbm friends now and he texted me throughout the weekend. It's getting weird, I think I'm going to delete him.
Went 'home' to my small town this weekend and got tanked. Wasn't able to eat until 5pm yesterday. I've got to quit this. In fact, I've asked J to keep me accountable.

V's confession was "I feel like I'm about to get sick".
This would have a lot more impact if you knew that she has been saying this for the past three weeks.

V's BIRTHDAY!
-10, J
Is there anything wrong with V using Bieber's "Under the Mistletoe" album to pump herself up for the helicopter show tonight?
(Full disclosure: I got her the album. After purchasing it I looked at the cashier and said "this isn't going to beep when I walk out of here, is it? I really can't handle being accused of stealing a Justin Bieber CD".)
+10, V
IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!
30+ posts on my fb wall make me the most popular person that I know, no big deal.
My roomie got me "Under the Mistletoe" and we've been grooving to JB's sweet voice all day. While we were in line for Birthday Starbucks this morning I found another birthday twin (we already knew about another person in the office, A, who shares this special birthday day with me).
Unfortunatly RIM isn't honouring this day the way that they should -- fb on my blackberry isn't working :( .
I'm goin' get ma herr did in half an hour -- so I'll be all ready for tonight. If you see a crazy lady in the front row oogling (i.e. screaming) over the cop, that's me.

V's Birthday Month!
If it isn't already, November should be a highly anticipated holiday month because the lovely and talented V celebrates her birthday!
+10, V
If I didn't feel like a grown up already, I do now, because of something I did last night.
Are you ready for this? (you should be sitting down).
Last night I....(wait for it)...stopped following Justin Bieber on twitter. This is a big step for me. I appreciate your support. After he visited our city, I've been suffering from a particularly potent case of Bieber Fever, hopefully the side effects of day dreams and mentioning Justin's name in random conversation will subside soon.

My guess is that she'll start following the Biebs some time in the next 2 weeks, following Boston Rob's tweets just won't be entertaining enough. Plus, he's about to release a Christmas album.
Only two more days before we start listening to Christmas music, our first choices are:

Only two more days before we start listening to Christmas music, our first choices are:
- The Mariah Carey/Justin Bieber duo: All I want for Christmas
- Elvis' Blue Christmas
- Cartman's Oh Holy Night
Boo!
Happy Halloween!
+10 went as a very professional looking ladybug (she had meetings)

Went to a social where the couple got married -- kind of cool.
No kids at the apartment building, so no cute costumes to look at :(

One of my best friends from Calgary was visiting for the weekend and we hung out and ate great food.
Now, off to buy deeply discounted candy!
