Plethora of useless information.
It’s past midnight, I really should go to bed, but instead I am here updating. Tomorrow starts four days of studying like hell for my last final, you can imagine how excited I am.
Hmm… what’s new…
Definition of embarassing? Is my mother calling when out on a date that happened to go a wee bit later than expected. Made me feel like I was thirteen again, with my nose too big for my face, and yet having had kissed a boy.
Mom’s informed me I shouldn’t “spread my loins” on a date. No really. Exact wording. Anyone have drugs or a straight jacket? Because this woman is crazy.
Also, Mom bought a new washing machine. One of those frontal load ones. Supposedly really gentle on your clothes, and good for the environment to boot. But? A pain in the ass to operate, as evident by the DVD you’re supposed to watch before using it. Yes. A DVD. Mom wants Nicole and I to sit down and watch it. You know what? I think I am fairly easy to please. As in, there is alot of activities I’m willing to do all in the name of good fun. Unfortunately, watching a DVD on how to run a washing machine does not make the list. Like, at all.
Enough about “Mom related” news… but still familial news! Jaret and Twyla bought a house! Yup. Exciting. Now all that’s left for them to do (besides get married next July) is make me an Aunty. I’m waiting. 
Another brush with a Saskatoon celebrity… this time John Gormley! I sold him a watch today! He winked at me, and called me by my first name. It’s true. John Gormley and I? We’re tight.
I’m cold, it’s past one AM, and I’m grouchy. I think I should crawl into the warm space known as my bed.
This wasn’t near as interesting, informing, and exciting as I hoped it would be.

Gormley embodies everything that is wrong with the Western Conservative movement.
The guy is a blowhard, and just an ass…but enough of that guy..(and that was only my 1st impression).
Your Mom’s date comment is great, not for you, but great nonetheless…she is right though you shouldn’t spread your loins, especially not a second date.

Haha it’s true, he is. Perfectly nice whilst shopping… not so nice other times.
My Mom is funny, but a lil bit nuts also, no?

heh. I wonder if taking the washing machine DVD to watch with the guy on your next date instead of “spreading your loins” would make your mom extra happy

Interesting idea, D.
Brea, I’ve decided to cancel my visit to Saskatchewan…
But in all seriousness darlin’, you can’t expect your life to be a sitcom all the time. It’s the boring pauses that make the random moments of operating your washing machine so great!

[…] Mr. Big also posed the question “Would I be ok with my children/parents/students/coworkers coming across and reading this?” Children? None. Parents? Yes. You have to know my family to realize how, er, offbeat they are. I mean, not everyone’s mom would tell them not to spread their loins on a first date! Students? I’m good, till this fall at the very least. Coworkers? Unemployed at the moment! […]
