Better days
Despite the rather ugly moment last night, I’m in wonderful good spirits today. Somehow I think I’ve grown over all this and finally stopped feeling guilty about what a few people may think of me; I said what I had to say and I don’t care about anything else (like Meg Ryan would say to Hugh Jackman in “Kate and Leopold”: I don’t give a rat’s ass). I mean, not everyone likes me and that’s ok. Now, if they want to spend their life trying to find a way to let their poison out, to poison themselves even more, that is not my problem.
Patrice and I have had a busy day. Woke up really early, went for an un-healthy breakfast at McDonald’s (we had the right since it’s been more than a month!) and then headed for the grocery store. Patrice was obsessed with buying stuff for me because he’s going on that trip and I’m going to stay all by myself for a few days, but I told him not to worry… I can survive. I have my backup here, with my mother in law, the neighbour that is like my mother and a friend, right Elisa? Plus… I’M FINALLY GETTING MY DRIVER’S LICENSE VALIDATED… t’was about time!
After grocery shopping he surprised me with a trip to Wal-Mart. Anyone who knows me is well aware that I like that darn store too much, but at the same time it’s like a knife with two edges because I always end up spending money I should be saving. Well, it wasn’t that bad this time. I got two books (for $5 each) — as if I didn’t have enough books already — a pair of jeans (gotta love cheap stuff that lasts), a shirt and some crafting stuff. Oh! And a deodorant, but I guess that’s TMI.
Then… Oh yes! We went to take the rented car back to the rental office, my mother in law brought us home and guess what? She wants to buy this apt. move here, so we can buy a house (probably hers). How neat is that? Well, it was just an idea, but we’re certainly brewing it. She wants a smaller place and not have her office at home anymore because she always ends up working extra and I think she’s tired. Anyway, we’re excited, very excited!
Now we’re planning on a quiet evening, watch the movies we rented at the local video (we finally got a membership — c’mon! it’s only two blocks from here) and relax. BTW, the movies are “El Crimen del Padre Amaro” (Gael García Bernal is hot!) and “Serving Sara“. I made a reservation for “A Guy Thing” and “The Hot Chick” (Martie got me curious about that one) for tomorrow… gotta love reservations!
And before I forget: I want to publicly apologize to Roberto for having sent a short and snipey e-mail last night that was un-called for. I was hurt and angry by something that had nothing to do with a comment he left here and my good sense wasn’t working. I hope he still comes and comment in my blog because his input has helped me to understand many things. I’m sorry, really sorry.
I enjoyed watching the hot chick, it was cute. Have fun watching movies tonight. 
! Aren’t you sick of all this rain??
