Safe Haven

Well... I made it safe and sound.

They already did the upstairs so Im hiding up there now.

Yeah, I first found out about the SUPER SUCK invasion (yeah, all the tubes and hoses are hooked up to this big red box inside the back of some truck (the "HIGH POWERED vacuum truck". I kid you not, thats what it says on the side) currently parked in our driveway. The big red box is labled with large yellow letters SUPER SUCK. I though this was mildly entertaining.) at about 8:45 this morning when they knocked on the door and started talking loudly in their important man voices with my mother in the front hall.

side story: For some reason we seem to, every few months, have a crew of about 2 or 3 loud french men show up at our house in some sort of utility vehicle and perform some sort of maintanance on our home. Things like... cleaning the carpet or the couch, figuring out why sympatico sucks ass, building a freaking kitchen. Anyways, my point is they all use this loud, abrupt, important sounding man voice that can be heard all over the house. It's very unsettling to have strange men walking around your house period, let alone talking like this. It does not make things easier that they always seem to show up in the morning, when I'm still wandering around the house half asleep and still in my pyjamas.

Back to my original story... SO my mother walks into my room (lucky for her I was awake and reading) and tells me to clear up my room since they'll be up to clean the vents shortly. I stare at her in disbelief. The reason for this disbelief would become evident if you happen to SEE the condition of my room. It's a tad messy, to understate things. so... I shoved a few things in my closet, piled some more against my dresser, made my bed (I can't remember the last time I did that...) and fashioned some sort of path from the door to the vent. I felt my duty there was done.


Okay, some terrible smell is now taking over my house.... GAH! it's tuesday! MY DAY OFF! Not the day for people kicking me out of bed to clean my room OR having people hooking up the SUPER SUCK to my vents OR to make my house stinky!!!!

bah. I'll survive right? yeah. Thats right.In other news I've spent too much time having fun and ... you know... NOT doing homework lately, so now I have a shitload of work to do. Congrats Emily, you have now proven that people can, in fact, learn absolutly nothing at all from past experiences! sigh... I'll figure it out. I always do.

In other news, we went to The Works last night as part of my mother's "screw Halloween" resolution. I love that place. I mean, where else can you get a hamburger topped with avocado, tomato, garlic and shrimp? The anwser is: nowhere. That combined with the sweet potatoe fries means I never have to eat again.

whats that, friday off? whats that, party?

Okay, off to "create" for the day.

drawing for homework? Long weekend? Sometimes I just love my life.
