Feeling great...

“I never understood Frost’s analogy about there being 2 roads in life to choose from. Everyone I know is stucked at a 4-way intersection and, given the choice, I think they would all be taking u-turns.” – Anonymous








That's how I feel this week. How about you ??

A blast from the past...

I saw an ex today.

Somebody I loved very much.

We lost touch 8 years ago.

Back then, he was a wealthy PH.D student.

He's now a meth addict and lives on the street.



How am I suppose to react to this ? Part of me wants to help ; the other part wants to run as fast as I can.



I am at a lost for words...

Attention deficit...




I will be moving again on August 1st to a more permanent home. I have been doing some camping for the last couple of weeks and will finally have my own place to stay. A real appartment. I haven't had one for years and I am really excited about it. And more excitingly, I'll be starting from scrach. You heard me right : brand new everything. Well, euh, except for the clothes and the old dog. Feeling jealous yet ? Even the carrot peeler will be new... Oh ! and the bath towels ? New too !! And no old smelly couch. Everything will be brand new. I know ; I get way too excited everytime I think about it...



But that brings me to my point.

I seem to have the attention spam of a 5 years old when it comes to sticking to the list and buying only essentials for the appartment. Because, well, I am on a budget. I bought today the last missing object for the mini bar. Mind you, I still haven't bought the kitchenware...

See what I mean ?
I need help. Badly.

Any suggestions on what essentials I should get ? What's the one thing in your house you couldn't live without ??

Because I really am that self obsessed...

I just had to post it : I just received an other cool picture of my canyoning this past Saturday...

It was really as cool as it look.






Have a great weekend everybody !

Bitting my cheeks...

Discussion over diner last night :





Mom : "this tastes like pickles"


Me : "Yes, it's called aneth"


Mom, looking puzzled at tiny piece of herb : "Of all things, I never expected dried pickles to look like this"






Yep, I had to bite my cheeks really hard for that one.



Good thing I still see those conversations as one the the perks of taking care of her...

Weekend nicknack...






Canyoning.





My legs are killing me. And I'm definitely doing it again in August !!





But I am getting a shorter wetsuit and way lighter boots. Definitely.

It was decided, over some green punch and around a herd of gay guys, that my new personal ad should read as this : " early 30's trumpet player, short on legs but flexible and bestial, looking for non hairy guy. "





That was some strong green punch.

I am the coolest aunt ever ! I left the house thinking I would buy a dress and a skateboard for my niece and nephew to celebrate the end of the school year.



I came back with a hamster.



Please meet Leopold Le Grimpeur. Yes, the 2 name thing did brake up a very early morning fight.
