“Bad Santa”

Deetria, Vern, Christina and her husband, and I all went out last night to see a late showing of “Bad Santa” — The way the reviews read, I felt it was a good choice for the dollar. I have to say though, that although it was pretty funny, and I laughed in parts, I found it was kinda stupid. I know, what should I expect with Billy Bob Thornton in the lead in a comedic role, but I was expecting more. Don’t believe they hype, and wait for the rental — That’s my take, anyhow.

I’ve dusted myself off, and decided not to be quite so pro-active in my dating adventure. I won’t be dating so much, and if I thought I was picky before, I’ll be much more so now. No big deal, really — It’s just that I’m really tired of the dumbass situations that I get myself into, while dating people that I don’t know. Maybe I’ll head out to Chapters today, and see if there’s a book out there by someone around my age that can shed some light on what I’m doing that is so wrong… Perhaps I can finally find some success with dating, or if not that, at least success in being single and being absolutely happy in that role. I’m learning, in my current situations, but I think I’d rather learn from someone else’s mistakes, quite frankly!

Vern’s off to Kelowna today — I’ve got the house to myself again tonight. I was supposed to go to an open house that a colleague/client is having in the early evening, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it. The window of opportunity there is only two hours, and I’d like to get some of this pending work off my plate so that I don’t have to work tomorrow. I know I should go — I’m sure he’ll have some fun, new people to meet there, but I just know I’ll be stressed out the whole time I’m there knowing that I’ll have to go home afterwards and work til late to get tomorrow off. Sigh… What to do… I’ll see how my day goes and play it by ear. To be quite honest, I’m not sure if I want to go alone, anyhow — And I don’t have anyone I can call who’d enjoy it with me.

It’s getting late in the afternoon, so I’d better get on with my day!
