SURPRISE

Hahaha, I doubt anyone even checks to see if I update this anymore. I know I wouldn't, since it's been about four months.

I'm almost off probation at work! Which means that they won't be able to fire me without going through a big, big, big hassle. Especially since I'm union. In times such as these, that's all I can really ask for. I'm very happy to have a job and to work with people I really like... well, except for Judey, but in every life a little rain must fall... And the odd thing is, I think Judey has actually warmed up to me quite a bit and might actually like me. Bizarre. Today was a bit hilarious... Judey was wearing an all purple outfit (pants, shirt, sweater) and I kept thinking, what is so familiar about this? Then it hit me! She looks just like Violet from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, post the dessert course of blueberry pie from the gum. Hahaha. It's also very nice to be accumulating vacation and sick leave, as well as being able to stick money in my savings account every month.

I'm not sure what I'm saving the money for, but I'm saving it. So many things I'd like to do - a new car (newish at least), a trip (or two), etc. etc.

Hm... other than that. Life is just kind of plodding along. My niece, Angela, turned 8 months old today. She's absolutely adorable. She's also a very happy little kid. She laughs and smiles and cuddles.

Adora's wedding plans are moving forward. Less than 10 months and one of my best friends will be married... Crazy! I hope to take a few days off around the wedding so that I can go down and help out with set up and everything. Plus I can take my time coming up and going down.

As for me, I don't plan to date, no matter how many people say that I should be. It's not like I want to be alone, but I don't want to go out and meet a bunch of strangers either...
