I *hate* writing these emails…

I went on date on Sunday afternoon. Just a quick coffee date (yes, I know — Coffee dates suck) because I had a bunch of other stuff to do that day. He was a nice guy, did everything right, including bringing me a pink rose (that was terribly sweet), being excited to meet [...]

Dare to dream!

Tonight was all about celebrating the home purchase of friends… My brother’s friends to be precise, but I’m hoping that Tod and Sherrie will also become closer friends of mine as well. They purchased a house in the 50th Ave. area of Vancouver about 6 months ago, and I’ve been looking forward to seeing [...]

A fun date!

I had an entertaining date last night! My date was an attractive German guy who’s the same age as me. He’s only been in Canada for about three years, and had a strong accent to match, although his English was excellent. He was a nice guy, as I suspected he would [...]

Forget love… I’d rather fall in chocolate!

YUUH-MYYY! What a nice way to spend an evening last night, I say! Col suggested that a bunch of us meet up at “True Confections” for dessert last night… What a great idea! I can’t remember when the last time I got out for dessert with a group of friends! Actually, [...]

The “Art Of Dating” online-style:

Before I start on my little dating overview, you MUST go and watch this. Granted, it’s absolutely OFF TOPIC, but I can’t remember laughing so hard in a VERY long time. (Thanks pericat, you made my day!)
Okay, now on to the topic at hand: I was reading a few articles today, while [...]

Welcome to the long weekend…

Yikes, I’m pretty tired this morning. No, not because I was up late last night… I was actually in bed by 11:30. Problem is, I’m still dealing with bouts of insomnia, so I wake up all night long. *sigh*
The movie with Ashleigh was fun — “Shrek 2″ is definitely a flick you [...]

Off to “Slayer 4″ with my neice!

Um, I mean “Shrek 2″. What was I thinking?
It should be a great time for both of us! My neice, Ashleigh, who’s 8, is a ball of energy usually — I get a kick out of her antics sometimes. The girl just can’t sit still! Note to self: limit the sugar [...]

Where am I on a Saturday afternoon?

At work, of course! I did, however, bring my rollerblades and a change of clothes with me in case I wanted to grab some exercise on the seawall afterwards. I don’t have to be here too long today, so if something else doesn’t come up for a fun alternative after work, I’ll be [...]

It’s all about business today!

It feels nice to have someone come into the office and put their foot down. I’m in wall-to-wall meetings with the CEO, as well as the client/distributor in from England (Yes, the same guy that I met there a month ago). Today has seen a very good start to refocusing the company, and [...]

I’m so productive!

I feel so productive today. Jeez, it’s amazing how much gets done when you actually follow your to-do list in order of priorities. I wish I did this more often!
Today is a very interesting day, actually. The team here where I’m the marketing department (yes… I’m the marketing department) and I are [...]

Chipped tooth, and all!

You know… I’m having a good day today. Even my aching mouth from chipping my tooth (AGAIN!!) isn’t putting a damper on my mood. The question is, am I in a great mood because I had an awesome date with a really fun guy last night, or just because today’s Monday, and I [...]

Memories…

This was just such a great idea, I thought I’d use it too:
Leave a comment on this post with any memory that you have of me (hopefully something nice!).
Then post this in your own journal, if you have one. I promise I’ll respond to all my friends who steal this.
I stole this from [...]

Tanya’s confused.

Why does dating have to be so freekin’ complicated?
As I posted yesterday, I went on date #2 with someone last night… Dinner and a movie. I had a good time talking to him on the phone the night before — He even had me laughing a few times. When I arrived [...]

I’m strange.

I don’t understand why I hate doing my billing, and leave it for literally months on end. I did my billing yesterday which dated back to freekin’ December 2003 (Yes, Jenn, I finally did it). I’ve used all sorts of fairly valid excuses not to complete and send out my invoices, but that [...]
