Sunday, Sunday, Sunday....

....it was Monster Trucks, mud and mullets :)

*Pictures forthcoming*

Surprisingly, I really enjoyed it all! Despite the exhaust fumes and the amount of noise the little buggers generated, it was pretty exciting to watch them crush buses, cars and generally trample on everything.

There were two trucks that stood out to me in particular. The crowd favourite seemed to be Gravedigger, and it was obvious the entire thing was a cake-walk to him. My favourite was Batman......not exceptionally quick, but I liked the way he looked :)

Et, c'est tout pour le moment.

So, I told two people....

...that I started this up again:

1) Steven - that was bound to happen

2) Adrian - my cousin, who also asked for a shout-out. Adrian, here it is.

This week, work put me through the wringer. Over and over and over again. Tonight, we're staying in, watching TV and eating take-out. I'm so excited!!!!!

I guess I owe two more shout-outs:

1) Rach - dim sum was so yummy!! Let's do that again, soon :)

2) Fel - it was really nice hanging out and catching up last night :)

I'm pretty exhausted and have nothing more to note, so that's it for now. I'll have more to report after the weekend!

Silent come-back

It's been a quiet few months on my end. I haven't really gone anywhere (except to Edmonton for a couple of days). Everything has been status quo: work has been busy, Steve's still wonderful, the fam is still lovely.

Things that have changed? We got turtles. Yep, the small green ones....with red ears. I scaled back socially, but have been really enjoying the quality time that I get with my closest and dearest friends when we make plans. I don't get to see everyone all the time, but I'm finding that suits my energy level better.

I'm also sleeping. If you've known me for any length of time, that's a pretty cool thing! There was a time when I existed (although barely) on maybe 3 hours of sleep a night. I used to eat Subway cookies (three of them) for breakfast. And, I would exercise like a maniac. If I put on my Janus face (an extra slice of cake for any of you who knows what that means), I can see how all of that wasn't very healthy. Now, I'm in bed by 10pm usually, and I'm eating like a queen (thanks, hon).

I got my "writing tingle" again this morning and then again on my walk home this evening so I figured it was time to make my blogging come-back, albeit silently. By that, I mean that I'm not going to really tell anyone that I've started writing again. (Oooooh! I just got goosebumps!) If you're reading this, you've found my post by fluke, or you are indeed a good friend who didn't lose hope that I would someday continue my rambly ramblings. Or maybe I can't really keep secrets and I told you about my little plot.

Whatever the case, I am starting to write again for fun. Yay!
