sunday bloody sunday

i'm pretty positive this is the longest and most boring sunday ever.

When the hell did this happen?

I have added another "One thing I wishwishwish I could do" to my list.

The only thing I had on it before was play the piano. I dont know why but I have always wished that I learned to play the piano and sometimes think about what it would be like to be able to sit behind the keys and play some awesomely beautiful song. Why you ask? NO CLUE.

Seriously, I dont know why of all things that was something that I longed to be able to do.

Well, now I have another thing. Painting. I am no artist but more and more I wish I was. I have found some artwork that I just absolutely love and adore and it gives me this overwhelming feeling of wishing I had the talent to paint great things.

I've never really been into art before the last few years and even in the last year and half has it completely blown up. I can sit here and look at paintings and prints all day and not get tired of it. I think it's gotten to the point that I would take a trip to LA or San Francisco just to go to one of the Gallery 1988 locations. I am sure there are other art galleries that i have yet to find that would make me just as happy but this was the one that showed me so many paintings that i have just fallen in love with.

I do have a free flight voucher and one of the locations I can use it for is LA....

hockey creeps and flooding

last weekend Todd and I went to Hockeyfest. There was a draft party and an alumni/celebrity all star game. It was fun, but seriously made me realize how many fucking creepy people there are in the world.

Throughout the weekend they had some sports memorabilia being sold from different vendors and also autograph sessions and what not and i swear to god some people have NO common sense/courtesy.

Now i understand that obviously if an athlete is doing an autograph signing that a picture will be taken here and something will be signed there... but when there are people having them sign the weirdest shit and also standing around them taking picture after picture it just gets really goddamn creepy.

Unfortunately I am not able to explain it the way i want to.

I guess i just think its common courtesy to say hello, get something signed if you want, maybe take a picture and be on your way. You are not friends with them because you said hello, so dont go telling your life story and or making horribly bad jokes with them. And for the love of god, stop stalking them with a camera in plain view.

we also went down to the river. It's high as fuuuuuuck. I took some pictures but i havent uploaded them because i just havent really felt like it... but maybe i'll do that tomorrow or later tonight.

Im really tired and kind of cranky for no reason.

i think i'd rather be blind

$400 at the eye doctor today.

now, dont get me wrong i know glasses can get expensive but we dont give a shit about the high end, designer brand frames. we're cool with the cheapy ones.

so because of this we werent not expecting to pay a TON of money and it was much needed.

but almost $400? COME ON


and then the dude charged me for some other ladys glasses which was almost $200 and then realized he made the mistake so he said he "refunded" it and that it would be credited to my account immediately. when i got home i looked at my account and saw that both the other lady's glasses and my own were showing as debits.

i had to sit on the phone with BOA to try and sort it out.

stupid optical place.

The Fabulous Fox

Todd and I havent been to the Fox Theater since we saw Edward Scissorhands and i was just thinking about how I want to go again. This is a shitty picture i took with my camera phone at the time when we were leaving afterwards. I didnt think you could have cameras but apparently you can, you just cant take pictures of the actual show. The inside is beautiful so I'll definitely bring a camera next time.

There are a few things I think I want to go to. Something in August and maybe something in November.

hmmmm
