Rehab baby, one more time

It's going to be Lent soon. Props go out to Lindsay and Britney to try and give up the booze! (and special white powder).

I'm not a hard partying starlet, so I have a different list of things I'm considering to give up.
Here is the short list and a few reasons:

Tech:
Giving up all gossip websites (cause they are a waste of time and are taking over my brainspace - EXAMPLE ABOVE) except for Pinkisthenewblog (why? cause it is only updated once a day, has a somewhat positive spin, and the auteur is a massive NIN fan)

Giving up superfluous msn usage or atleast limiting msn time usage (so I waste less time). And by limit it, I mean only really talk to ppl who don't live in the same area code.

Giving up facebook. That's right. It'll hurt more than msn.

Food:
Giving up chips and fries. this will be harder than it seems. it will probably allow my body to be bikini ready tho!
(giving up chocolate is TOO cliche!)

otherwise:
Give up bad dating habits. (HAHAHHAH how the F does that happen? still, I think it is a worthwhile thing to give up!)

Yeah, I think it'd be a good test to my will power.
And my sanity.

I should also add that I got my first parking infraction fee today.
Yup, 30 big ones.
I had no idea - I SWEAR THERE WERE NO SIGNS THAT MADE ME THINK I NEEDED A PERMIT!!! argh.

I am totally starting to feel like a grown up.

Oh.... and funny thing about the Dutch: cubicles are illegal (that is right, it is a worker's right to have their own space and their own window). Funny thing #2: All taxi drivers haver Mercedes.. something to do with equality in working conditions.

So this while kafuffle of asking out/getting numbers/exchanging emails resulted in a 7 hour marathon date today after work.
SEVEN FREAKING HOURS AND I DON'T EVER HAVE ANY REAL GOSSIP!!!
shessh.

Atleast this guy isn't a loser (ie highly educated, not TOO old, let me pay for some things and was overall nice) but I do think he was scared by my never dying death cough! So that meant no goodnight kiss for me. Even if I drove him home! (and yes, that was my first time doing that!)

Ottawa was awesome.
Great weekend, although now I a little sore all over because of all the skating.
Although TO is amazing, I wouldn't mind moving back to Ottawa... so I was proactive about this and for the twenty minute break I had at work, I printed new job descriptions that I am somewhat qualified for!!



Btw, just want to note this: I'm tyring my best to get rid of people in my life that are full of shit. It's proving a lot harder than I thought.

I've been working for a month and now I am going to take a 3 day vacation and go to Ottawa! I am so excited!

Ugh.. how am I going to live like a normal person and stay in one place for long periods of time?
I constantly need entertainment/something new/something exciting.
I refuse to say I have an "itch" for it, cause really, that just sounds dirty and like crush boy gave me the cooties.
