"livin' in a winter wonderland"

So I'm sitting... yep. And chatting.... yep. And working.... yep. Wait, scratch that last one. I came to work late because I was tutoring this morning. So now I have to stay at work late, sitting here, at my computer, and watching the white horror-land swirling around outside. *pout* Although it's very repetitive, I am contributing my distaste of the weather to the collective pool of hatred muttered by Winnipegers today. My sister emailed me about her galivants about Tibet. So I thought "well, that's nice........ bitch *grumble*... life isn't fair *grumble grumble*"

Apart from my grumble, life ain't too bad. I had leftover Ethiopian food for lunch, which rocked the galaxy. And then I proceeded to spend my half-hour lunch time searching the internet, reading up on blogs, and reading up on the news for the next hour and a half. Of course interspersed with chatting. I don't know who I'm going to chat to when Katie goes to work! Oh god, the misery. I need to convice Paul to get a computer at his work. OH OH OH! Kyla has a computer at work...... do I suspect a little bit of downloading of chatting features? *hopeful grin*

The weekend was calm and enjoyable - Paul's parents were AWOL, so under the guise of staying at a "friends" house (not -technically- a lie) we spent the weekend together. We watched movies, got pissed, ate WAY too much junk food, and generally had a good time. It's awesome to be able to date your best friend. I'm often reserved about talking about Paul in general - almost like what he and I have is too precious to be blurting out to a audience of people I don't know. And often it just seems so natural to be with him, that talking about him would be like talking about my little finger nail, or my knees. I doubt I'm making much sense - but (to be a major cop out so I don't have to explain myself anymore) I understand, and that's all that matters.

I'm a little worried about this summer turning out to be a flop. I do like work, but it's not really very engaging, challenging or complicated. And although I am interested in organisation, and conferences, I'm not particularly interested in being an expert on Social Science conferences. Hopefully the August trip thing goes through - right now I'm not sure how long I'll be working for, and I have to find that out before I make any plans. But I'm eager to do something different, instead of just sitting around Winnipeg for the whole summer. Ah well, I guess summer plans will fall into place once summer actually -starts-.

My first week off school was crazy busy, but now things have really cooled down, so if anyone is in the mood for some fun and games, count me in! I feel awkward calling people sometimes, because I never know when they are busy, or if I am interupting them, but if you leave a comment and force me to call you, I definitely shall! Idle threats work well, and so do offers of movies and dessert! :) Also, group activities are always provide the good times.
