My first blog on crack?

This post might not work out. But this is my first attempt to update the blog with my brand new pink blackberry! Other than the motion sickness I'm feeling- and the lady hacking next to me, this bus blogging might not be a bad idea

I hope to post shorter and more frequently now that I can do so on the fly, and I'm debating whether or not I should twitter. Are any of you guys tweeters? Is it all its hyped up to be?

Anyways motion sickness is taking over.

Christmas?

I know, I'm a bad blogger. I don't even deserve the title of a blogger, I'm just some chick who occationally strings together sentances of nonsensical crap in order to make herself feel important.

However, today I have time to update. The snow in Vancouver has been insane and not typical at all. It went from warm & rainy in November to freezing cold, to bucketing snow.... and now it's sunny. I woke up this morning to almost a foot of snow - that NEVER happens in Vancouver so it obviously shut down the city and enduced panic in anyone who needed to venture out.

Work declared a snow day, but I'm such a brown-noser and came in anyways. I'm one of 5 people (out of like 50) at the office today. I regret my decision to do so, because now I'm stuck here with no chance of leaving.

This weekend was a ton of fun, busy but fun. My best friend Michelle flew into town, promping a huge get together involving dip & drinks at my apartment followed by sneaking into a bar and some dancing (it was too cold to wait in line). I haven't done that sort of thing since April.... and I paid for it the next morning, thankfully around 1:30am we stopped off at a European Fry house and got some amazing Poutine. Mmmmmmmm Fries, Cheese Curds & Gravy. If you're not familiar with Poutine I suggest you get out there and some - my uncle, visiting from Kuwait, wasn't familiar and everytime I said Poutine - he heard Puchine - which is this crazy Irish moonshine, made out of potatoes.... so for a good 15 minutes, he thought I capped off my evening of drinking with some moonshine, he was much more impressed with my Puchine story than me just eating fries.

My bestest wishes to everyone this Christmas season (can you believe it's only 3 days away?). I have no clue where the year went..... however, the joy of blogging is being able to go back and find out. I think it was filled with lots of Tofino, Mexico and Derek - just the way I like it.

Merry Christmas, I love you all for reading this blog, and even getting upset when I don't update =) It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy... and when it's -10 in Vancouver, you need that warmth.

I'm attempting to get my crackberry this week - I'm trying to convince my cell phone provider to charge me $15 for unlimited data instead of $45... so if I'm successful, I'll get my berry - and then I can post more!!!
