Weekend Fun

High time for a new blog I think.

I had a weekend without Jeff which was a little bit unusual for me. I'm very used to him being away during the week with his job, which works out fine for me because I'm busy with school. But he's always home on the weekends! However this weekend, the Oilers and the Riders took precedence over little me. Both teams lost, which serves him right for going without me :) haha, just kidding, I'm glad he had a weekend with his friends because I had a fun weekend with my friends. Friday some of us played Ramolie and I kicked butt when in the last hand I got the
7-8-9 combo. Quite exciting, I was like, shaking with excitement, truly.

Saturday, Cory and I went shopping at Superstore, and I found out that something I had bought there last month had gone on sale, bigtime... I had the receipt with me in my purse and after a little bit of arguing with Customer Service and having a little chat with her supervisor, I got a return of $79.00. That felt good.

And Saturday night we started off with a girls poker night (our first ever... there will be more where that came from!), and then the boys came and invaded our night with "ooh ooh let me see what you got"," don't do that", and basically telling us how to play.... they couldn't help themselves, I understand that. But still, next girls poker night will be strictly that. girls. and a big sign on the door, no boys allowed.

sunday afternoon jeff came home and he spent most of the afternoon sleeping on my couch with another football game on, but i was just happy to have him home again.

but my weekend sans jeff was nice none-the-less.

something else exciting that has happened this weekend is that i bought a fish! my very own, separate than my dad's fancy fish tank in the family room. no this guy is in his own special bowl in my room. he's truly beautiful. he's a turquoise chinese fighter fish. i am yet to name him, but lynnel came up with a good one - Rex. i think i like that name, but i'm still open to suggestions.
i love him. i wish he could cuddle like edwin could but since my mom isn't allergic to this guy, he's all i get for now. i'll take a picture soon and put him on here for all to see.

well i best get back to work now, SEE YA....

This is my first comment on a blog ever! Which seems fitting since you're one of the only people that knows I read their blog, lol. Anyways just thought I'd say that I had so much fun this weekend, and that I feel very honored to have witnessed you standing up to that lady at customor service. Let me tell you guys, this girl is not someone you want to mess with.

I'm with Jenna...girls poker night??..sounds like the makings of a tonne of fun (my bro in law even has one of those professional poker kits!!) I can only begin to imagine you getting your $$ back at Superstore...it reminds me of this past summer at the EX when Regan stood up to one of the 'carnies' to get a different stuffed animal...not worth as much $$, but definitely worth the entertainment!!
