Wednesday Randomness....



On Monday I rocked a great fall outfit complete with sweaters, thicker pants and a scarf - I was too warm.

Tuesday I unpacked my newly put-away Summer wardrobe and rocked a thin blouse, belt, light black pants and a thin shell jacket - I was freezing cold.

But I think I finally found the right combo today. Black skirt w/tights, summer shirt but with a fall sweater & scarf - great success!

On that note, 26 more sleeps until we take possession. I would post photos, but Derek won't let me until we have OUR furnature in the space.... so all you get is the outside - this doesn't really capture how great our new place is.... but eventually you'll see that for yourself.

I've never been more excited in my life (except when going to Disneyland).

Blogging from the (sea)bus pt. 2

Why is it that of the hundreds of people taking the seabus right now.... The sickest one hunts me down, sits next to me and makes it their personal mission to infect me?

Disgusting. Note to self - don't take public transit during swine flu outbreak.

If it weren't for my downtown meeting this afternoon, I would be in the protective germ bubble that is my car - but that darn new rapid transit system is far too convienient to ignore.

On to happier thoughts - Derek and I have a hockey game tonight. We joined a friendly, co-ed floor hockey league.... Which has turned out to be coed, but not as friendly as we expected. I'm not sure how some people got the idea that this particular leauge would launch their NHL career dreams - but the way these guys throw body checks and fists you would think that we play on the canucks farm team.

Week one resulted in a swollen hand after someone swung their stick down on my poor exposed wrist. Week two was a ball right into the eye socket and last week I took a slapshot to the jugular. So needless to say, I've got 911 on speed dial for this evenings game.

Anyways, I've shifted to a bus and am getting car sick.

27 more sleeps until we take possession.

Blogging from the bus!!

Seabus that is. I actually don't mind transit as long as I can stay off buses.

So yes... I would insert an apology, but I'm not sorry I've been busy. My job takes up most of my day and househunting took up my evenings and weekends... Yes, that's right - househunting! Derek and I just purchased a great townhouse in North Van! Sooooo excited! I can't wait to get in there and start decorating. We've already got most of our furnature, and the place is essentially move in ready, so at the end of the month I'm officially a homeowner!!

So for the next 35 years I am poor... Which is a pity as I happended to be in The Bay last night and fell in love with fall fashions... Beautiful sweaters and tops, scarves, capes, and of course boots.

I'm headed down to Seattle on sunday for my last credit card fling before our mortgage kicks in.

Anyways, the first half of my commute is coming to an end - love you all... I've missed this.
