Friday Night

Last night Jeff and I went bowling with Blue Cross and he really kicked my butt. We did 10 pin and my fingers and wrist hurt today cuz the balls are so heavy. We've been dating for more than a year and a half and we've never been bowling together. We had fun because we were on a team with Angela, my friend who I work with, and her boyfriend and Jeff and him get along really good. They were planning our summer camping trip to Banff while we bowled so that was good news because I love camping so much, but I'm a little nervous to go to Banff because there are lots of bears there. But when I was in grade 11, I went camping in Jasper and no bears attacked us there so maybe we'll be safe. Anyway Eastside Bowl has really great pizza, I was amazed. I'd order pizza from there if they delivered, because it was darn good pizza. It was good to socialize with work people outside of the office. I stretched myself and made myself sit down with one of our higher up managers for 15 minutes, and tried to be charming. She's not exactly super duper friendly. I didn't really have a choice though because Jeff and I ended up being early, and her and her husband were the only ones there, so it would've been rather rude to have not sat with them while we waited for everyone! Haha oh well.

After bowling we went to Rogers Video and Jeff is all into buying movies all of a sudden, rather than renting them, so he bought the Manchurian Candidate dvd. We bring it home and he is snoring in 15 minutes, so I watched it by myself. This is how most of our movies go, so maybe it is a good thing that he is buying them now, so he can watch them by himself the next day! It's a pretty good movie, not really one that I would like to see again anytime soon, but not bad. Interesting to say the least. All I need to do is convince him to buy The Notebook or Bridget Jones' Diary or Fried Green Tomatos or something!

So that was my evening last night. Today I have to really write my last paper. It's about Aboriginal women in Canada. Finally a paper that is not about development, AIDS, orphans, African tradition, or Africa in general. Should be interesting because this is something that I really know nothing about besides what I see with my own eyes on 2oth street in Saskatoon here. It'll will be good to bring some perspective into my life about them. Because what I see here is really not all that good.

I'm sad that today is cold and windy. It was kind of mean how the last two days when I have been busy working that the weather was hot and beautiful and now it's Saturday and it's miserable. At the same time, it's good because then I might be more focused on this last paper.

I just read Jenna's new entry on her blog and it was all about Kayden and how much trouble he is and how much we all love him and about the day she had him. It is such a good blog entry, everyone read it! I can't wait for her to have more babies. Being an auntie is the best thing in the world. My friend Carmen is so lucky because she is the youngest and her brothers and sisters are all just starting families and have lots of babies, and they just keep popping them out! I don't know if my heart could handle all the love I have for Kayden times 6 or 7!!! I guess you just can't help but love them so darn much.

I'm out.
