Adventures Around the World

First of all, Kristy-Anne, I just have to say that your idea of hiring someone to rub my feet to make them warmer at night is INGENIOUS! How could I have not thought of that myself?! Second of all, to all those people, and there are a LOT of you, who always tell me you like to read my blog.... Leave a comment!!! Alright, the administration portion of this post is over, moving on...

I bought the new Michael Buble cd on Saturday. Jeff laughed at me because he bought me a shirt earlier in the day because he thought I had no money and an hour later I went and bought a cd. Then I laughed at him because he kinda got the bad end of the deal. Ha. Anyway, it's a really cool jazz cd. He is rather talented. And rather hot. And he is coming to Saskatoon, so perhaps I will have to go the concert. I have always been a music lover but for some reason I have a hard time justifying buying things like cds and dvds. There are SO many I would buy if I could only actually bring myself to buy them. It's a lot cheaper to just download. I can hardly justify doing that either though. What a vicious cycle. I'm hearing lots about Jack Johnson lately, and I think maybe that will be the next one I will buy. I saw in the Future Shop flier that it's out on March 1, which is tomorrow. Maybe once I start becoming a cd buyer, I will like it? We'll have to see.

Tonight Jen picks her bachelor! I totally hope she goes for Jerry, because I think John Paul is a retard. I'm not thrilled with her choice of either of them to be honest, but if I must choose one, I like Jerry better than JP. I love reality TV! It's crazy. I love American Idol, Survivor, Amazing Race, Extreme House Makeover.... then again I just love TV in general... CSI, The O.C., ER, Desperate Housewives, Judging Amy.... then there's Oprah, in a class of her own...And don't forget, Days of our Lives!!! Sigh... I could watch TV 24 hours a day. I miss Friends. I watched the last episode of Friends by myself in an airport in Minneapolis, among 50 others all fighting for a closer view in the pub I was in. Luckily I called my sister and she taped it for me.

Haha, speaking of that very same day, I had dinner at TGIF's in the airport, with a total, complete stranger! It was the oddest thing I have ever done. There was a huge lineup, and I told the hostess I didn't have time to wait that long, and this hot, 3o somethings man asked if I wanted to just eat with him. I thought, well sure why not? He was from the South, so he had a lovely Southern accent. He even paid for me. I felt like I was in a Danielle Steele book, eating with a good looking stranger in an airport on my way home from vacation. If only I had something to hide, like all Danielle Steele's characters!

So it is confirmed... I'm going to Europe in May! I am so excited. I am going to Prague, Czech Republic and also to Vienna, Austria. I keep hearing that Prague is supposed to be the most beautiful city in Europe. I can't wait. I'm going for a geography class about European Heritage or something... heck who cares what the class is?! Our prof was like, "So everyone, we meet at 8pm in Prague at this certain pub!" I was like, oh gosh I have to be all grown up and make my OWN travel arrangements?! I know a couple people going though, so I'm travelling with a girl I used to work with at Moxie's and this other girl that I just met on Friday. She is cute though, she's just young, and she's like, "I've never been on a plane or anything!" So she is a little nervous, but Jen and I have travelled a lot, so she is in good hands. I hope :) I've looked up a couple flights, and many of them stop for a day in Amsterdam or London as well!

I'M EXCITED!

I didnt know you were going to Europe until I read your blog. Wow. Well you will have fun. You should get a digital camera before you go so that you can take a lot of pictures. And TV sucks, the only good shows are American Idol and Oprah.

Oh Friends, what controvery!!! Thank you all for your lame insights on TV. Apparently I am the only one who watches it anymore... NOT!!! Haha, just jokes. I really wanted to say "not" today, like back in grade 5.
