Can You Hear Me Now?

I am long overdue for an update. Truth be told, nothing exciting is really going on these days so I haven’t had much to write about. So I’ll take notes:

• I’ve replaced getting a latte at the mall with getting Yogen Fruz (nonfat w/bluberries & strawberries), at least for the summer. It’s yummy and refreshing, healthier, cheaper, and I still have my lattes at home so it’s not like I’m missing anything.
• MyEbay clothing purchases are starting to arrive, and so far I am loving everything I bought! I highly recommend Ebay for clothing, especially us plus-sized gals who don’t have the easiest time finding cute things at good quality and prices most of the time. I’ve never seen anything like most of the stuff I’m getting in a store here! This dress was $20 including S&H and is absolutely gorgeous in person.
• Pita has broken two of my best mugs in the past two weeks.
• Pursuit of Happyness is an awesome movie; Jiminy Glick is not. And it had so much potential, if it stuck to “small-time talk show host makes it big and now gets (hilarious) interviews with major celebs”, instead of that whole murder/mystery/David Lynch plot.
• Tomorrow is quite possibly my final Quantum Release session. Kevin told me last week that there is some major emotional blockage he can’t get through, and he’s not sure he will be able to, so no sense in wasting my time and money. I think I may know what he is talking about, and if it is that, I want it to stay repressed forever, I don’t want to remember it! Other than that, I am very happy with my QRT and how much better I feel emotionally, and I hope it rolls over to better improvement in my physical health over time.
• Last time I saw Kevin, Pat the Psychic was at the front desk and I asked her, “so, how am I doing, Pat?” She said I’m doing really well, that I’m releasing a lot of anger and she honestly does not see me with a walker. I demonstrated my walking to her and how I do need the walker, and she brushed it off with a “don’t worry about that - I don’t see you with it. You won’t need it.” I hope she’s right! She also said “July 21 is a really big day for you! Very eventful.” I asked, “eventful, how?” And she answered “For your heart! Really good day for your heart.” July 21 is the day Rob Szabo is here and I’ll be meeting Scott Cooper in person for the first time (we’ve been chatting online for eons). Rob, Scott, the band and myself are driving out to Fort MacLeod for the South Country Fair. You bet your ass it’s going to be a great and eventful day! And when I see Rob and meet Scott, my heart will explode, so there ya go.
• I’ve been doing my usual weekly trips to the chiropractor, meals out with the folks, my brother coming over to help me out with cleaning and shopping, work, etc.
• My brother is coming over tonight, and this weekend my mom is coming to stay with me. Our projects include dying my hair and cleaning out my closets. I need to make room for that new wardrobe I’ve got coming, bit by bit, in the mail. I have a feeling my next Ebay adventure will be selling a bunch of my own clothes I no longer wear!
• My friend Michelle is leaving for Vietnam tomorrow. So last night we went out for dinner and then over to Starbucks for beverages and hung out for a few hours, to get some social time in before she leaves. Have a great trip, Michelle!
• Our weather is SO HOT these days. This weekend we are expecting temperatures around 31-33º C (high 80’s, low 90’s F) which may not sound like DEATH, but it seems so much hotter. Must be the global warming thing. Anyway, it’s great for the tourists who are here for the Calgary Stampede to know that we don’t really live in igloos in Canada.

Anyway, that’s about it. I’ve forgotten any little anecdotal stories that may go along with any of that, or can’t be bothered to type it all out because it’s too hot in my office and I want to get back to my fan in the living room.

I’ll be back for a real chat when it cools down in here! (Bob brought me some sun reflecting paper for my office window that should be up either tonight or by the weekend. Hopefully that helps!)

“What can I break?”

“What can we break?”

Aw.

Sometimes I steal captions because I can’t think of my own.
