1 more day

So 1 more day, which is tomorrow, and I make the 3 hour drive to the big city to get on a plane and head to my home town. I am excited to see everyone, a little more excited than I though I would be. Also this my first night back in civilization, and definetly do not like it as much. I enjoyed the peacefulness of the very black nights, and no one around me except for the doodles. Her in town, I am still on my own, but not as much since there are people that live above me. Another best friends wedding I am heading home for, and I honestly have mixed feelings about it. 2 best friends get married within 3 months of each other, and makes me feel alone, and like I am not moving on. But I took the road less travelled and left everyone behind to live where I live now. I am enjoying myself and I am happy, but I am always ready for something new, a new challenge, or just too move on again. I am supposed to be giving a presentation at the highschool here, the day after I get back. Which I am antsy about since, I really really hate public speaking even though ppl say I am good at. I am trying to find a way that I do not have to do it but just be there, since someone from the board of directors has to be there. Well I gotta send some e-mails to see if I can get out this.

So bored...

I keep finding ways at the office not to do actual work, like checking my facebook, playing a trucking simulator, typing new blow posts, going to get coffee. Just so I can get to the end of the day, and go home and do the usual stuff. IE: Tonight I have to cut kindling, if I want to have a fire to heat the house, fuel and wash the car since it is sitting in the carport with the gas light on. Get back seats of the truck folded down and vacuumed to pick up the dogs tomorrow, vacuum bedrooms, put away dish's, make a bed, make supper, and of course watch 2-3 episodes of house while doing all of this. So I'll be at the office for another 2 hours or so "working", before I head home. Wine pairing dinner on friday to plan for our next even which is in about 2.5 months, installing some stairs on saturday, than off to canmore on sunday to visit a friend. Well I guess those are my plans for the week, while also managing to get some actual stuff done at the office. Today I wore sweatpants to the office, which I never do, but who's going to tell me not too? If I go out for coffee people always seem to ask, are you working today? When I wear sweat pants, but they are comfortable.

None of us are free

As I type this on my new panasonic toughbook which was a birthday present to myself.(hold on grabbing a beer)Anyway as I type this I am listening to Solomon Burke, a really awesome blues musician, the song playing is "None of us is Free" Hence the title of this posting. Not that I actually think that none of us are free (that we are all bound by our beliefs, relationships, bills, love, hatred) I think I'm free, I'm sitting here drinking a beer in my boxers, watching House and typing a new post. I did turn off my internet connection while I type this since there is no actual internet out here, just a 3g connection, so if I let it idle forever it would cost an arm and a leg. Which kind of takes freedom away but I digress. I keep getting distracted by the tv, I forget what I was actually going to type about. Does anyone actually read this?

Another year older

So tuesday was my birthday, I am now 23. One of the ages where it doesn't matter so much, your just a year older. It was a pretty normal day, I only worked half day, than went to the gym, and back home. I did some cleaning, than went back to town to meet my Uncle and Auntie for supper, dropped my auntie off at the library than went to the bar with my uncle and met a couple of other people. After that I drove home, but had to take a different back route because the hill was closed, that was fun, it was a really steep grade, backwoods, gravel, pitch black way to go. I watched a movie than went to bed. And that was pretty much my birthday. My brother had called at 530AM to wish me a happy bday, my mom called, and I got a bunch of text and facebook messages. Yesterday I received a gift in the mail from a really good friend back home, and card from my sister and brother in law. I think that was the best part, receiving a written acknowledgment of my birthday, even though it was two days later. Well got to get back to work.
