August What?!?

Wowee man. My summer just whipped by so quickly I have barely had time to think, let alone write anything down. Not to mention my computer is so "touch and go" I would hate to start a blog and have the computer crash....that would be frustrating. I got better fairly quick after not going to Freezerburn(knock on wood). I have had a few months filled with love and quick affairs of the body that were quite scandalous(as usual for me)...
My 30th birthday was so much fun. From start to finish I loved every minute of it and am so incredibly grateful for all my friends that made it out and sent me love. I rocked the Lotus Long Weekend. I have decided to invest in a computer. I don't think I have purchased anything this big in monetary value since my first car when I was 17. I need a nerd to come with me, or a geek. Either will do just fine. I started this blog with the feeling that 30 was going to bring me something huge. I feel it. Change is coming and I am bound and determined to embrace it fully and scare the crap out of myself.
More later,
Wendy

June cough

I can't even sleep. I am so tired of being sick. I have been sick my whole life and although I try not to live in the state of well this is how it's always been I can't help but think I was just dealt a crappy immune system. And there is some weight in that since I was a poor doer even as an infant....I couldn't drink my mother's breast milk and I am sure I missed out on valuable immune complexes from her. Or whatever they're called. And now instead of driving across the province to go camping with my friends in cozy Alberta I am home in Vancouver....trying to nap but coughing so much I can't. I am frustrated. I thought this blog would be more positive and I guess it will be but right now I am upset. I am going to the library to spread germs on all the books because I have a book to return and I feel like being a tiny bit evil.

What...May is gone?

This month seems to have flown by and I can't even imagine how quickly the next one will go. It seems I have plans on top of plans for every weekend in June. I have been hanging out with lots of people and dancing until I can't move anymore. It's funer. May long weekend was super fabulous on the sunshine coast...faeries and fools crept out of this wonderful old growth forest. Some amazing energy from some amazing people. Sunshine crept through the trees and it was beautiful. My head is currently lacking in intelligent things to say as I have slept 4 hours over the past 3 days. I plan on bathing, reading and having a few sips of wine to discourage my old friend Insomnia from sticking around.

Co-Lab is over!

Today I found the greatest invention EVER. It's a coat hanger that turns into a lintbrush. I want one.

Weekend of fun...more to come!

My weekend started off a bit somber with the deaths at work that occurred on Friday but I have moved on and definitely remember why I continue to do the work I do. It rules sometimes. It sucks sometimes. Kinda like life eh? I went to bed earlyish on Friday so I could hit up the Holistic Lifestyle Faire and get some delicious energy from the kin...thank you! Saturday night led me to chill with my BFF and encourage her to separate with some seriously neglected duds. We drank some gin and headed to meet up with some other peeps instead of hitting that houseparty in honor of the house. Cole, Matt, Kristi and I met up with Kale and Hitoshi at Grandview park where we joined the non-active protestations. I danced it up a bit and saw Yossi again...damn once that hippie shows up, he be everywhere! Good times accelerated into ridiculousness and a bit of a pretty girl chase...home very late and consequently late to the clothing exchange on Sunday. A wonderful array of colors and skin and outfits where I BBQed a tantalizing mix of veggies and meat for the hungry people. I left full, with a new wardrobe and completely nourished with friend love. Not a bad weekend at all. Today was pretty uneventful except for the part where I darned my socks! Finally! The love of my life joined me for mussels, beer and poutine for a late dinner and then helped me fold my laundry....awwww....she's so sweet. Now to hit the hay a bit early and try to make up for the late night that seems to be lingering in my old body.

I attended the Holistic Lifestyle Faire today. Learned a bit more about my inner hippie and some self care techniques both internally with food and externally with oils and salts. My hips and legs are still a little sore from the first bunny bike ride being followed with a night of epic dancing.. Just fretting a bit about some nonsense events that recently occured and just needed a little grounding...feeling better from the release. Now a little house party where we are actually celebrating the house itself. Sure to be a delight. Just gonna chill a bit more with my dog, Walter, then head out.

Hospital sadness

I had a sad day at work today. I guess that happens when you work in medicine. I said goodbye to 2 of my furry friends....such is life.

Intro

It's a place in space. A place to call my very own. I will be thirty in less than 2 months. I thought about writing in my journal again. This is better. This feels like yes. In this blog I ponder, discuss, vent, revel and normalize for all the world to see. No big deal. And so it begins.
Today was the first day after the Canucks played their last minutes on the ice. Last night as the game concluded I had the thought that maybe those guys are real tired. They also have this beautiful city surrounding them beckoning to them to get off the ice. And the injuries need to heal. Plus I gotta go play in the sun too. So the beach will be full and campin and fishin shall begin. Imagine if the Canucks made it further into the playoffs, what that would do for left coast culture? Not sure if I will see that in my lifetime of heartache that is canuck fandom, so all I have is my imagination....I believe though. I gotta do something with this huge crush on Kesler. My back is kinda bummed from lifting too much stuff at work and getting gently nudged by a motor vehicle from behind. A massage, Epsom's salt bath and rest have reduced my body to a nice warm salty mass eagerly tapping out her first blog. Oh and my back feels okay too. The city kinda felt like it was in collective depression today but I think that had alot to do with how I was feeling physically. Meeting up with my best friend from when I was 13 tomorrow. Should be interesting. Hopefully I will have something to say everyday that is somewhat remarkable but if not it's probably because I am too busy, not because I stop thinking. I will always be thinking, learning, and growing. And thanks to those of you that inspire creativity within me....and sharing.
