Googling....

So I picture googled my name, as seems to be the craze, and came up with: (Sorry, can't get the pictures...)
- Jennifer Lopez.
-Jennifer Love Hewitt.
-"What Jennifer Saw"- a poster on DNA vs eyewitness in setting innocent convicts free.
-a bunch of couches.
-A horse.
-Some researcher girl.
-and many other Jennifers.

Let's try Thadyne.
-Nothing. Zilch. Nada.

Let's try my last name.
-A picture of a stone church in a town with the same name as my name.
-A lot of photos of long-lost realitives.
-House plans.
-A department store.
-A library.
-Cabinet Prints (whatever that is...)
-An areal photo of the town with my name.

Wowzas.

So I bought a computer today. At first I thought I wouldn't pay much- the tower, moniter, printer (which is a printer/copier/scanner together), keyboard, mouse, and speakers all came together for really cheap. But then you had to add the programming, the warranty, the techno disk thing, the chord, and other various accessories. I almost died when they told me the price. Then I handed over a wad of cash as thick as my arm and only got $1.25 back. I nearly burst into tears there in the store. Actually, tears are coming to my eyes thinking about it right now...

So now I am on a mission: Get all of that to my new apartment where it is insured. Only then will I be truly at comfortable again...

Ow....

Today was an excellent day. Instead of working, I got to go horseback riding. I haven't been in about 10 years, it took a little while to get used to it. I had a ton of fun, though. I went with 2 of my coworkers- my boss's daughter, and the girl who drew Alex an eyebrow for the fasion show last year after his was shaved off.

The fun, however, came with a price. My butt hurts. Muscles that I didn't even know I had- they hurt too. I didn't think the rump had this many muscles. It was worth it, though.

Random Bits

I got a raise!!!! Granted, I am only keeping this job until school starts, but this is the first raise I have ever gotten in my life. This makes me happy. (Obviously.)

In other news, the swimming pool where I live that I have never been to before has a kiddie pool, and it is so shallow that I sit in it. That's right. I just plunked myself down. It was quite relaxing at work.

I have decided to elliminate the VERY specific place names from my blog, in the light of new information that people I don't know actually think that I am worth reading about. No offence meant, that did sound kinda rude. Sorry.

Another Post...

OK, so Saskatoon is a no-go. Oh well. I'd have been there when lots of people were going to Pinelow.

In other news, I CAN cook!!! Hazzah! I shall not starve after all next month and the years afterward! I shall simply eat Chef Boyardie (no idea on how to spell that, sorry.) What can I say? They make awesome ravioli.

I have also officially decided that the cutest part of a horse is the nose. It is so soft and felty, and the easiest place to touch. The nose it is.

As well, apparently people I don't know like my blog. I didn't know that people I don't know even read blogs.

More later....

Travels

For those of you who may not realize this, it is EXTREMELY tiring to go to Victoria and back in a single weekend, driving through the night, and taking no extrasleep during the day. It is not for the faint of heart, and only for the mildly insane. All my coworkers thought I was crazy.

About going to Saskatoon... my car will not get me there and back. And there are only 4 spots along the way that I know people to help me out- one being home, and the other being my destination. So I am trying to figure out a way to either get my car fixed or some other trick up my sleave. Hopefully I'll get there.

And, I'm planning on coming along if anyone from Edmonton goes to Pinelow for the last weekend. If all goes as I hope, I'll only spend, like, 3 weekends out of the summer at home, 2 which will be spent moving.

Oh, and Camp HeHoHa with work will be way less stress and a lot more fun than I'd planned on. Amanda will be coming along as my helper. Yay!
