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.
It all started in September of 2010... When V transferred offices to cover a maternity leave and got lucky enough to share an office with J. It didn't take long to discover how much of a difference the decade between us makes. Last night we thought "wouldn't it be interesting to blog about the difference in the choices that we make as a 20-something vs. a 30-something?".

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".)

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.
-10, J
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!

Why isn't every weekend three days long? It's so much better to have that extra day.
Went out to my friend's cabin for Saturday night -- so relaxing, so nice to get out of the city. Autumn is a really beautiful time of year.
On HP movie #4. The first 2 were really hard to get through and I ended up watching them in clips because I got so bored. They're getting better. I'm noticing more plot holes as I watch the movies. Honestly, who keeps polyjuice potion around in the massive quantitites that would be necessary to impersonate Mad Eye for an entire school year? I mean, come on.
+10, V
Felt like I was a -10 on Saturday night when I played drinking games and ended up throwing up...a lesson that my +10 self should have learned by now.
Randomly yelled at some people (in a funny way though. promise). Got mad at some kid for not knowing my name...then called him by the wrong name...
Ended up watching Bonanza with my grandma on Friday night...felt more like a ++10.
Made my first Turkey dinner with my sister, totally lucked out by not having to stick my hand in the turkey. I think she felt bad for me because I'd thrown up the night before.
This weekend I have a wedding to go to. Still need to find a halloween costume.

7.5'
+10, V
What's 7.5' tall, makes me giddy, and can be purchased at Costco for $114.95 (+taxes)?
MY NEW CHRISTMAS TREE. That's right, the Show Stopper this year is going to be bigger than ever. I'll post pics when it's up. Speaking of which, any guesses as to when that will be? Last year it was early November...but I'm not sure I can wait that long I'm so excited!!

Fortune Telling

Last week V ate some timbits on Friday morning and nearly all afternoon I heard things like "Why did you let me eat those?" "Oh, I feel so sick" ... et cetera. You would think that seven short days later she'd remember the cause and effect situation but it's only 8:21am and she's already had one. I'm predicting a repeat of last week, and will take video footage as proof.
Off to a cabin this weekend -- the weather has been fantastic and getting out of the city will be great.
+10, V
Goin' to Mo-town this weekend...probably play some drinking games. My sisters and I are going to try to cook a Thanksgiving meal (unsupervised)...probably won't work out.
27 sleeps before my b-day (still plenty of time to get me a gift).
Still need to find a halloween costume -- any original suggestions would be great.
Did a self-diagnosed detox for the past few weekends and kept things low key. Did a massive clean of my apartment after drinking pepsi too late in the evening. Living the dream.
Question: would you date someone who is missing an appendage? (no, not the really important one)
