So last night I made pillows. I know, I know. This is exciting stuff. But I'm a firm believer that you can make any mundane boring task fun, if you use your imagination and just relax. We had a sheet of foam that we had to cut up into little tiny squares to fill the pillows with. It started out with some good girl music, Norah Jones, and some good girl chatter. Then one piece flew in the air and innocently landed against my nose and rolled to the ground. Then of course I had to retaliate with not just one piece but two. I had to show them who was the leader in this situation. Next thing we know, we are in an all out foam tossing war. It stuck in our hair, stuck to our socks, and even managed to find it's way on the inside of our clothing. At one point I had my mouth open and they were all trying to toss the foam in there. I have never laughed so hard in a long long time. Now, it could have been a mixture of sleep deprivation and the soda I had earlier, but all the same, it was some good times. Everyone needs a little foam war to ease the worries of the day. But I was thinking, if you're not making pillows but say... cabinets, don't get in a nail war, it's just not the same.

Okay, one more!

Okay, so it's the same day as my last post, but you know when you are excited about something and you just want to do it over and over? Well... Yes, I'm well aware of my nerd tendencies, but I'm not ashamed! There is nothing wrong with being a nerd! It can be lots of fun, let me tell you. Those Star Trek conventions can get really wild and crazy. And last Tuesday I put two spoons of sugar in my green tea. I just wanted to add this picture because it is my favourite picture. I just love how you can see that the world is round. Now, it's not actually me, it's my friend Victor. But that's because he bought the package and I didn't. But we did the exact same jump, and you wouldn't have known unless I told you. So... Yes, acutally, it is me!

My maiden voyage of blogging!

Hello! So here I am, succombing to societal pressure to start and maintain a blog. Okay, so there's no pressure, but I feel like I'm on the brink of a new addiction. I have my myspace, which I am addicted to upkeeping. And now, as if I didn't have enough to waste my time on, I'm starting a blog site. But, as any good blogger would, I have my excuses. This way all my friends and family back home can catch up on all my news, or just glimpse inside my psyche if they are going through withdrawl. So I say 'Cheers' to the inaugural start of my blogging career. (If only I could get paid for this!)
