My husband cracks me up sometimes. I told him I wasn’t feeling too well after eating some cheddar cheese, so he promised to make me an herbal tea. Well, he didn’t come to ask me which one I wanted, he messaged me about it, LOL! I’m sitting here trying to come up with a new layout for my blog, but nothing comes to my mind. I have some ideas, but not the will to make them happen for now. So, I guess I’ll just go and watch “Trading Spaces College Version”

Thanks everyone for the nice comments you left. I’m sorry for the tantrum, but between lots of work, being extremely tired and being hormonal, I don’t know why I was so sensible yesterday. I had to turn the radio off in the car because every song was making me cry! I came home, had dinner and went to bed to sleep for 14 hours straight! No need to mention that I’m feeling much better today now that my batteries are re-charged.

So, it’s Labor Day Weekend. There aren’t many plans on this side; maybe we’ll go to the World Film Festival that is closing on Monday. My mother in law wants to cook fish for me because Patrice cannot even see it… LOL! Other than that, we’ll stay home, in peace There are new entries in my PhotoLog if you want to take a look.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Still in tears because I called my brother to wish him a Happy Birthday (yes, my parce is getting older! -parce is like my fella, my pal) and when we were about to hang up he told me: “Beatriz, I love you very much. Please take care and come to visit us soon because I miss you so!”.

Still in tears because I called my best friend to cheer her up and I had to hold my own tears while my heart was breaking with each word she said. She’s so sad and desperate and I wish I could do more for her; but I will!

Still in tears because today, more than ever, I want to be in Colombia with my loved ones telling them how much I love them. I’m into nostalgia today… I want Christmas to be here soon, so I can go and join my people in my country.

30 minutes ago I was really upset because after working like a dog all week, under staff and doing everyone else’s job because they are in some kind of festival of their religious group, I got a call from the administration office in Ottawa saying: “I’m so sorry, I just got back from the celebrations and I couldn’t send your check in time. I’ll send it on Tuesday”. I thought, great! long weekend without pay check, not fair. I was about to explode and tell a few things to the manager, but I calmed down. This is the first time something like this happens (and I hope the last!) and I don’t want to sound like a greedy bitch.

Especial note: Happy Birthday, Bago-Daughter!! :party:

“Hoy es Viernes” was the name of a T.V. show I used to watch when I was a kid. We eagerly waited for friday to come to sit and watch videos and news about artists. The guy said: “Hoy es Viernes! Gracias a Dios…” I still can remember his face and all the set decoration, very 80s! Ah, the good old days…

My mom has asked me to send her a maple leaf. No, not the hockey team She has asked me when I see leaves turning other colors for the fall, to pick up some and mail them to her. I do remember that she keeps leaves from when she was a girl and each one of them has a story. So, I guess I’ll be picking up leaves soon I think I have some in my old French notebook, when I started going for classes here in Qu�bec. I just saw some leaves already yellow and red.

Indigo Books & Music Inc. is going on a chopping spree, but it appears the company’s two downtown Montreal stores will escape the axe.

Elisa, I guess you can breathe happily, because I know how much you love !ndigo. I’m an Archambault kind of girl. Will be there this weekend getting Bruno’s new CD

Stop the world, I want to get off… I’m so busy today, so many calls to do, so many papers to fax, so many e-mails to write, so many shipments to take care of. Yet I manage to sneak online to check on the rest of the world. I want this day to pass very fast, and then tomorrow, and then the weekend to relax, enjoy, go to the Film Festival and have fun.

But I cannot complain, being busy is good. There is not time to think, do, say or plan stupid things. It’s like a drug, the more you work, the more you need something to do because one single minute of doing nothing can drive you crazy; or at least it works that way for me. God bless jobs, especially this job of mine that provides lots of fun and learning… Even if at the end of the day I just want to jump in bed and sleep.

The rest of the post is not intended for people who think talking about body functions in public is not nice. Read at your own risk.
