UGH
As I said...UGH. I haven't been this damn sick for a long while. My lungs feel like I've been power dragging bonfire fumes, and my nose is running faster than San Jose is losing to us (By the by, I'm a FLAMES fan, living in Calgary and all *chuckle*). I was on the way to the doctor's office, when about halfway there, I smack my forehead and walk back home. The boyfriend still has my bank card. *DOH!* I need a doctor's note since I've been gone sick for three day, and the gouging bastards charge $10 for this piece of paper these days. Pathetic. So, now I have to wait until he gets home at 8PM, see if I can convince someone to drag me to the doctor's (if there's one OPEN!), and wait for 2hrs just to pay money for a piece of paper! *grrrrrr* Serves me right for being ill eh? Meh.

Well, on a more pleasant note, I was back home in Edmonton from the 7th-10th. I had a BLAST. It was really nice seeing all my old friends again; Mike, Mark, Ken D., Heather-Lynn, I love all you guys. :) It was awesome seeing my parents and brother again too.

My friend Mike drove me up (very sweet of him, eh?), and when we hit Edmonton, we drove straight to Sherwood Park, and chilled for a bit and shot the shit with my parents (this is also where I was crashing). Then we headed out to karaoke at the B-Street Bar. My friends Mark and Ken met up with us and we rocked the house. I got a standing ovation for doing Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit".

On Saturday, after visiting with my brother, Heather picked me up and we headed to her parent's place. There I got to see my little nephew who is now a large, talkative 5 year old. :) (I last saw him when he just turned 3) Then we headed over to Heather's place, and waited for Mark to show up. We had some Birthday cake and then headed out to a goth club called "The Suburbs". My friend Ken met me there as well, and we all had a blast. I haven't danced so much in my life! And the freak culture in Edmonton RULES! :) I was as prententious as could be; smoking clove cigarettes and drinking absynthe. ;)

On Sunday, I spent the day with my Mother in Sherwood Park, of course. :) My Mother made pork tenderloin, strawberry and spinach salad (well, I made that via her recipe), and mashed potatos w/ gravy. YUMMY! I got both my Moms a card (as I couldn't find anything else in Sherwood Park Mall). I picked up a circular saw while there since my step-mother got one that day on sale. :) Then I went out with Mike and Heather later in the evening to Ceili's Irish Pub for a few pints.

Then, come Monday, it was back to Calgary after having lunch with Heather and Sheldon at Brewster's. Mike drove me back, on three hours of sleep mind you. After dropping me off and resting for about an hour, he drove back home to Edmonton. Man, he's got more gusto than I! *L* What a depressing day that was though. After being in Edmonton again after so long, I've grown quite homesick for the place. I've been bummed about it, but, I'm planning on going for another visit on May 29th. :)

Later peeps!
