Post Halloween Blahs

Even though today is officially Halloween, it's sad to see it over so soon. I love this time of year and wish it could last an entire week or month- although I'm not so sure my liver would last that long! I have to say though, I was disappointed this year at watching the younger generation dress up for Halloween. This weekend is truly an excuse for them to wear their underwear out in public and have it be accepted by everyone! What ever happened to originality or gory outfits? I for one love the ability to look as ugly as I want to and not be insulted when someone tells you how hideous you look...To wear my underwear out and have someone tell me what a gory costume - well not quite the compliment I'd be going for (although technically I was in my underwear this year and it really wasn't that pretty...But that was on purpose!). Maybe I'm making too much out of this, or maybe it's my age showing, but I was really upset to see so many "minimalist" outfits! Maybe next year I'll be more impressed - or maybe next year I'll go somewhere where there's more people my age, rather than trying to hang out with the 20-somethings!

Only Me!!

Well it seems that I have an unusual ability of not being able to buy a condo! I have now put in two offers - the first I never heard back at all from the seller (very weird!) and now the second doesn't seem to be working out either - major renos needed to be done to the building and the cost has to come out of my pocket (no thanks). I do believe that everything happens for a reason...I just want to have an event happen where I end up in a condo I can call my own! Do I sound frustrated - because I am!!

I do have to laugh now at Melissa's comment she made about me the other day - If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. It seems rather true these days.

Saturday Morning Blahs

It's Saturday morning and rather than being delighted with it being the weekend, I sit here at work wishing I were still in bed. I was even good last night, going out for just a couple of pints with Jon, Reid and Joe. But I guess going to bed as late as we did, 6am just comes way too early. I do look forward to getting a nap in this afternoon....how I love napping! I also look forward to seeing a condo I may buy this afternoon as well. I guess if things keep up like this my Saturday morning blahs could turn into Saturday afternoon yeahs!!

Look at me!!

Okay, it took me a while, but I finally did it....I've joined the 21st century (somewhat) and created my own blog!! Now I just need to get a computer so I can "play" at home with this (or maybe work won't mind my using their time?).

I know it's short, but it's my first time. I promise more on my next post
