| Sooo... what is new? Not a whole lot. I am getting ready for my trip to Europe- getting money exchanged because that is the only way I won't spend it first! Sad, but true. We have all of our hotels confirmed etc. so we are definetly on our way.
Oh! This is new... Maren and I are completely addicted to Ebay. I mean ADDICTED. Addicted?... how you might ask? Like... we don't leave the house until an auction is over, like we have spent HUNDREDS of dollars in the last month, like... WE ARE ADDICTED! It's so much fun though- we are getting really good at sniping other people. If you don't know what sniping is, then you are obviously NOT ADDICTED! Maren- post your new Coach bag- it is sooooo preeetttyyyy! It needs a coming-out blog!
I saw the Devil Wears Prada and I really liked it- the fashion in the movie is worth the price of admission! And I loved Meryl Streep- she was awesome.
Anyways, that's all for now... Mares, I had fun tonight at work with you!  he he he!

Corinne is having a boy!
She would be horrified that I posted such a thing but I think it needs to be celebrated!
So, Congratulations Cor! It's a boy!
I spent the afternoon at my aunt's house in Burnaby and I really enjoyed it. Their house is coming along very nicely- they fixed it up to their liking since they moved in 2 years ago. It's very Spanish and pretty with lots of pretty flowers everywhere. Joey LOVES going there which is cool.
Not much else is new.

| So, I sat in Joey's pee today. Yes, his pee. How did I do that you might ask? Well, I sat in a chair that he pee'ed on. The really tragic part is that I was talking to Dar for about 20mins and didn't notice it until I stood up. So, in actuality, I sat in the pee for about 20 mins. Let's not discuss this ever again.
Nick got a promotion last week. It goes into effect on July 1st. His company took over another company, so he was promoted to GIS manager for the Vancouver office. I am really proud of him- he is very good at what he does. He has to go and train at the Nanaimo office in July maybe... so that should be interesting.
I need to go burn my pajamas now. C-ya.

Nick and I just booked our vacation for September. We are leaving for England on September 24th for 6 days in London, then to Paris for 4 days and then on to Barcelona for another 6 days. In April, I am planning to spend a longer time in London with Maren  - who hopefully (puh-leeeze) can come and play! I would really like to go with Maren because we have fun with whatever we do! We're also becoming Siamese twins and she refuses to get out of my head! James said that London will never be the same after we blow through it! he he he!
Maren, Courtney, Dar and I saw the Lake House last night and it was wonderful. I LOVED it. I want to see it again tonight with Nick. He saw Click last night with his mother and it was awful! So, I am glad with our pick for sure! Maren even tipped the "yogurt girl" for being oh so generous with our frozen yogurts! It's always fun to go out with girls. It would have been totally perfect if Joyce could have come too!
Anyway, that's it for now....

Well, here I am.....a true orphan, no jokes, just the truth. My heart is broken, I am exhausted from 6 months of hell. I am tired of crying, the smell of the hospital, the looks of pity and the sadness in everyone's eyes. My mom died exactly 4 months and 1 week after my daddy. It's all over.
I feel like I need to be worrying about something or running off somewhere to do something. But there's nothing to do. I sleep a lot which I guess is ok since I have been exhausted for so long.
Thank you to everyone who asked about my mom and talked with me about my feelings- you don't know how much you saved me.
And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
So take these words
And sing out loud
Because everyone is forgiven now
Because tonight's the night the world begins again...
