-Lost in the woods-
______________

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

   Tuesday, September 6  

Happy Tuesday!!
I hope everyone had a loverly labor day off. I made the decision that someday I'm going to be important enough to have holidays off. It hasn't happened before, but I'm totally working toward that goal. I usually don't have to work Christmas, but I think this year will be the first, especially If I'm still here. I'm getting a little tired of working double shifts on days like Canada Day, Victoria Day, and Labor day. Not just this summer, but since I've started working at Red Cross + any place else. I had such plans for this summer. I don't know where they went.

I did get to see a choice few people this weekend, a la potluck at Kristin's cottage. Even tho we were just a tad late, they still let us grab some dinner and chat. Unfortunately the plan for drive in was squashed when the little man with the big flashlight came out and told us all to go away, but we got some action with a 40 year old virgin instead.

So school starts back today. Every seems so excited and shiny and new and eager to go back, even the little kids next door that are too young, just cause their dad's a teacher. Jealous much? Absolutely. I went to school for 16 years straight to get my degree, then went back again last year just for the hell of it. So make that 17 years of September schooling. It just feels so wrong to not be going back this year. Like I totally forgot to do something like....register, get a loan, pick classes, stress out about when they are and who they're with, try to make work hours fit, and get new shoes. I know I should be all "yay, that stage of my life is over, time to be a real adult!" but really, I don't want to. Where's my relief from working two jobs all summer and not having a life? Yup, that brings me nicely back to wishing I was important enough to have holidays off. Gahhh.

In other news, the search for a couple of roommates has begun again. Well, it's continuing anyway. It's nice to have someone else looking as well, but if anyone knows of someone looking for a nice cozy roof overhead, I've got a kitty that would love to meow at you and attack your shoes. And she'll even show you her belly. I know, ~Gasp~ it's her one trick, impressive huh?

If you're bored, I'm your gal, it's pretty quiet at my house these days, I'm usually working on the p'uter if I'm not at work. Maybe some Liquor and Mario Cart? It's an institution people.
