Why can't it be vacation time yet? Probably because I want to go so very badly. I'm traveling to Washington in just a couple of days for my sister's wedding, which I'm extremely excited about. Not only because I get to see lots of family I haven't seen in a while, but because I will be going "home" for a few days.

Then back here to California, back to the hell that is my job...*sigh* What can I do though? No working = no money to move away from here. In two more weeks though, my real vacation starts. Granted, I have other things to be taken care of on said vacation, but mostly it will be very relaxing, which I'm glad about. Some free uninterrupted time is the bonus.

Almost makes me wish for a time machine or something. ;)

Soooooo busy....

It's all for a good cause though, which would be to help me move away from California...FINALLY!! I've talked about it often on this blog, over at least the last year and a half.  I probably could have been gone by now if I had tried just a bit harder, but I tend to take on obligations that are not really mine to take, which always further delay me from leaving here.

That time is officially over.

I have (and will be doing again when I'm done writing this) been putting in many online applications over the last two days, and will be calling everyone I put applications in with within the next few days to make sure they were received. Also, since I wasn't able to turn them in myself, I want them to know just how serious I am about wanting to get hired. Hell, if I'm lucky, I may be able to get myself two jobs!!

Also have to return emails about making appointments to view apartments, something I haven't done in seemingly forever. I've been living what most would deem a "bohemian" lifestyle, but I quite enjoy it.  It's been nice having good friends for roommates, having people who actually care about your well-being and such.  I've been missing out on that the last four years I've been in California, even though I won't have roommates when I leave here. It's because I have a boyfriend, who like me appreciates our privacy, and the only way to maintain that is by not living with anyone else.  It could change though, as I have a couple of friends who have talked about moving to where I am if they like it when they come to visit. They know and respect the fact that my privacy is a factor in this, so I'm not worried.

We are all quite over living in California.

Well, back to work on this, more news at it happens. XD

Fuck sakes, it's been a long damn time since I was here last...*sighs* -.-

Oh well I guess.

I'm in one of my "music" moods, which is why I'm here posting now, but it's been a while, and I enjoy sharing what I listen to, so here goes...


Pepper Sands, one of many indie Canadian bands I love, and one I've gone out of my way to see many times, they are great live.


I absolutely love this band, and was extremely disappointed when they broke up in 2007. Dammit lol Still listen to what I have quite often though, seen them live a couple of times (shoulda been three -.-), and they were one of the most FUN bands I've seen.

Just to clear it up real quick, and to save time...this music posting is STRICTLY some of my favorite Canadian music ;)

NEXT!!!


Ahhh, Three Days Grace, so fucking awesome. Saw them play once, about two weeks before the first album. Fantastic live band, definitely need to see them if you get the chance, their live show is what made me a fan.

The same night I saw them play, they were opening for this band...

Theory of a Deadman...best thing about Nickleback was it got me this band XD

Yes, I have attitude about Nickleback...I won't deny I do have a couple of their albums, figured I only needed that many, as they all basically sound exactly the same. However, they do not rate a video posting. So there. On we go.


Sam Roberts, I really like his music, and he reminds me of my friend Jordan. Hmmmm...maybe I should be more specific, as I have several friends that share that particular name. Jordan Oliver is the one I speak of. Anyone who reads this, and who is on my Facebook will see his picture, and he looks just like this guy XD Anyway, moving on..


HAHAHAHAHAHA, I love this damn song. Yes, I've also seen this band live, during the first of 4 straight days of concerts up in Vancouver. VERY loud, almost to the point of makin' ya physically sick...almost >:D


They got a lot better when they grew up, but I will be the first to admit...they always were a good band, they just got a LOT better later lol


She is without a doubt my favorite female musician, I think she has an absolutely amazing voice, and her songs are great.

Of course, the only way I can end this is with my favorite musician EVER, who everyone knows is Canadian based, because I never shut up about it. XD


Matthew Good...the most awesome of all :D
