I am giving out candy tonight and I got all dressed up for it, cause I am silly like that. I went to Value Village and got a floor length golden hued dress, a wand and some sparkly jewelery as well as a tiara from another place and I am now a pretty, pretty princess!

I wish I had my camera with me, so I could take a picture. I think I look quite fabulous.

Had a whole hockey team come to our door. I don't really like giving the candy out to the older kids, but the adorableness of the little ones makes up for it. N'aww.

ETA: Ha! A bunch of teenage girls just came and two of them complimented my dress...and they all said thank you! So, I guess it's just the groups of teenage boys that I don't like...the little hooligans

He's stopping at the comic book store tomorrow to pick me up the second issue of The Umbrella Academy.

I won a free iPod Nano at the Word on the Street book festival in Toronto. I was so suprised because I never, ever win anything, but now I'm not sure what I should do with it. I already have a 30GB Zen, and my old iPod mini, so do I really need this one too? I feel kind of selfish for wanting to keep it, but it's so cute and little! No one I know needs a new iPod though, so I might just keep it. Hmmm...

Spy Daddy is on Ugly Betty! And Harold! and Dawson! Holy guest stars Batman! I made an extremely embarassing high pitched squeak when Spy Daddy first showed up on screen. How I have missed the Spy Daddy!

Also, I think three posts in one week is some kind of record for me.

I was really homesick last night...to the point of sitting up here in my room and crying, but I feel a bit better now, especially as I will be going home this weekend to see my friends and family. It just kinda hit me last night that I won't be going back home again (well, highly unlikely that I will) and that all my friends are so far away!

Also I'm still a little bit stressed about learning all the ropes at the hospital, as they use paper charting, and I am so not used to that and this weird GRASP system where you get points for the things you do with the patient. It's all very strange, and seems like a whole lot of useless paperwork. I spoke with my friend last night though, who just started working full time recently as well, and she said you get like 3 weeks where they don't mind if you screw up (as long as it's not a huge screw-up) so you can get on your feet. That made me feel a little bit better.

Also making me feel better is (nearly) naked Colin Ferguson on my tv. He's in some movie from 1996 called "Rowing Through". He had lovely floppy hair at the beginning, but he cut it off. I've also been distracting myself by watching TV, reading the flist, talking to the sis on MSN, and going out and exploring St. Catherines.

The first day at work was kind of hectic and crazy...it got really busy and I couldn't do that much to help, because I didn't know where stuff was, and how things worked at the hospital yet, but it did quiet down later in the day. The second day was better, and I got to learn a lot more about how the hospital worked and the policy and procedures. I didn't feel quite as useless :)

Otherwise things continue as normal. My new room is quite nice, all I need is a TV and VCR and to put up my posters and I will be all set!

Getting super psyched for Muse tonight!!! Am a little bit nervous about driving down there, but it should be okay because I have been there before to see MCR, but I didn't drive that time.

Have a route planned out, going down Major Mack, as I am terrified of the 401 and don't wanna pay for the 407 (this probably means something to only about 3 people on my friends list, but meh).

This is my third time seeing Muse live, but the first time my friend and I had to leave early because we took the bus down, and we had to catch the last bus back. The second time it was a short set cause it was at the Virgin Music Festival. So I am hoping this time will be awesome!! Not that the other two weren't, but they were kinda cut short :(

I must go get ready!

For those of you who are in the Toronto area and do not want to be spoiled for HP:DH

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT READ THE TORONTO STAR!!!

They wrote about who dies in the book and the leaked version of the book on the net. My poor mother has been spoiled after reading the paper this morning.

GAH! And I though all I had to worry about was the idiots on the internet!

So I went to go to bed tonight and just as I was about to put on my pajamas, I looked up at my canopy and noticed all these little dots on it.  As I looked closer I realized they were spiders!!! Like 20 little tiny spiders on my canopy!! I freaked right out and went and woke up my poor parents, and my Dad proceeded to try and kill them all....which didn't work so well as they were very tiny.   And then I kept looking and noticed that they were all over my stuffed monkeys that hang from the canopy and on the ceiling....

For those that are new around here, or don't know I am intensely, intensely arachnaphobic...like to the point where I can't even stay in the same room as a spider.  I started freaking out tonight so badly, I kinda scared my parents a bit I think.  I actually started sobbing so hard that I woke up my poor sister too.  Ugh..and now I keep feeling them crawling all over me!! There will be no sleep for me tonight!!

My parents sprayed Raid all over my room, and tomorrow they're going to take out the canopy and shake it out.  Also they'll probably go over all the furniture with a vacuum and stuff. 

Well, now I am WIDE FREAKING AWAKE if anybody is around and feels like entertaining me, I'm on MSN at dizzy_1302@hotmail.com or just drop me a comment!

I am still kind of freaking out right now, but luckily Clerks II is on....and that is very amusing and distracting....

Also I am on my sisters laptop because I was too scared to go back into my room to get my laptop. 

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

Ummmm....what?

Seriously Rob Thomas, that was not on my friend...not on at all.

I'm so...disappointed.

For the Yinathing fest...nothing like waiting to the last minute...procrastinator extraordinaire that's me!!

Yin's request was for icons of Rodney McKay's hands....which I did, with a few bonuses thrown in.

Only sharable if Yin says so.
ETA: Sharable 'cause Yin said so! Comment, credit, don't hotlink and all that!

I was just randomly flipping channels and I stopped on Baywatch Hawaii because I thought " Oh hey, Ronon's in that" and there was this whole montage thing with Jason Momoa running around in swim shorts to a song whose chorus included the lyrics: Hawaiian superman. Oh hee!! Ohh now there's another episode!! It's on the Drive In channel of all places. Dude, he's all clean shaven and it looks so weird. Aww, now we have a touching scene with a parapalegic guy...

Went to see Sondre Lerche last night and it was such an awesome show!! It was a nice, small club and it wasn't very crowded. Very intimate, nice and informal. The crowd was great too....no pushing or being annoying. Both of the opening acts were great. Had nice chats with us and everything. I especially loved Willy Mason. He was such a sweet charming guy, and had an amazing voice, which kind of reminded me of Johnny Cash. It was lovely.

I bought the new Sondre Lerche CD and my sister bought the Willy Mason CD (from Sondre's brother!!). I will prob upload them later if anyone is interested!

I only have two more shifts left and then I am done school!! It's exciting and kind of scary at the same time...now I just need a job!!

Barely!! In a couple of weeks I will be done my placement, which means I will be done school!! And then I have to get a job and be a grown-up *stresses*

Still not a huge fan of night shifts, but they are more bearable...also I am pretty much used to working 12 hour shifts now....scary!

Watched the last ever SG:1 last night *tear* It was alright...but I'm hoping the TV movies will be better!!

Driver's Test next week....which I am going to fail, as I do not know how to parallel park :(

But there are things that make it better, such as:

I have tickets to see Sondre Lerche at the Mod Club in Toronto on April 2!!

I have season 2 of SG:A in my hot little hands...and there was commentary watching and loving!! There was a small kerfuffle with Best Buy's price being $10 more expensive than it was listed on the website, but I purchased it at HMV for the lower price and returned it to Best Buy. Not cool Best Buy, not cool at all!!

There are creatures shouting "Gelfling!!!" on my TV!! (total bonus points if you know what I am talking about)

I got a gorgeous new pink purse at H & M yesterday!! I love that store!! I also bought this bag, because it is awesome and I am a nerd (It's a puddlejumper...hee)

I also bought the "Not a robot" shirt from TWoP's now or never sale!! It's fun spending money you don't have!!

New Grey's and Ugly Betty and Supernatural tonight!!
