rediscovering seaseme sticks.

I feel like I'm trapped in a bubble. It might be some sort of anxiety. Ugh...anxiety sucks.

So, it's saturday night. 7.23pm to be exact, and i have returned home from a box mission. i hit up some LCBOs in the hood, and i think i'm going to pack tonight. Sound like fun?

So i'm really excited about the move...although i was happy not moving in the last two years. Prior to living here, i had moved THREE times in one month. Once to a great little two bedroom apartment with a new roomate, who turned out to be a nut, so we (two friends and myself) did an emergency move to my friend's place - who was away during the summer, so his Toronto room was open, then I finally moved here. Oh my goodness, that was the most un-fun ever. Moving sucks, but feeling completely displaced and constantly going around and around...yuck.

Anyway. i like this little place. it's quaint. But i'm ready to go. I spent a good chunk of time last week trying to re-settle into this apartment and it wasn't going well. Although...my old bedroom now has a TON of pictures up. I love how the room looks now, so it will be sad to take that part of it down.

I'm checking out a place on Monday morning. It's pretty close to here. I drove by the house on my way home tonight - and it looks really cute. Let's pray that the actual apartment turns out to be a quaint place too. Fabulous area attraction is the high school just down the street - although it might suck during the actual school year with so many kids running rampant...it has a great track in the back of the school...so i'm excited.

I purchased a bathing suit today. I drove ALL OVER this city...surprisingly with very little problems or hold ups. I'm not in love with the bathing suit...but i was seriously running out of options. I have this really cute bikini top from AE, that my mom bought me a month or so ago now...but i could never find the bottoms that fit me. This is how the mix and match SUCKS...i found a lot of tops that i liked, but they had no corresponding bottoms, or vice versa. So annoying. Anyway - it's a cute little two piece...just might not be the most flattering for my physique. But it's practical..and that's all that should matter.

VERTIGO. Yesterday at work, I was NOT feeling well at all. I don't normally get headaches. And when I do get them, it's usually just my warning sign that the worst is yet to come. I spoke about my vertigo before. I have been diagnosed with what appears to be genetic vertigo. My grandmother also has this problem. After that entire summer of testing, all of the specialists feel that Vertigo is my body's version of a migraine. Everyone in my family gets migraines, except me. But apparently I get vertigo. Anyway - yesterday I could not absorb information for the life of me. Shannon & Julie were giving me information about a simple location of a building and while they were both speaking to me, all I could say to myself is 'don't pass out, don't pass out....' cause i was feeling so naucious and dizzy. It was terrible. I took an advil (thank you a million times over Julie) (i don't like tylenol...only ibuprofen seems to help me in this one - don't ask me why, cause i have no reasoning) and Julie suggested I eat a freezie - to bring up my body's sugar level and also to re-hydrate sort of. I was heading back out onto the road for a bit. None the less, it made me feel a heck of a lot better and within a few hours, the dizzy spells were gone. What was REALLY strange was that when I got back, a friend of mine had typed out on my MSN that her Vertigo was acting up. I was like 'me too!'. So now i'm curious as to what might have been happening yesterday that threw us off. There might have been a quick shift in atmospheric pressure or something. Anyway, i'm curious as to what people who experience vertigo are sensitive to, if we both seemed to have shared a similar experience yesterday.

SOFTBALL. Last night was I would say the third official game of our season. Blue team (us) started off strong - taking a three point lead off the first inning. Then again, when red came up to bat...they made it like 6-3. In the end, we tied 11 all. I was very sad about my playing yesterday. I struck out THREE times. What is that? Anyway, after the game, Nolan helped me practise my batting. There was this random gentleman who was behind the cage watching us. At one point he softly asked if he could give me a pointer. Now being in Moss park, we're getting used to the most random and off the wall comments. But he was fantastic...he was teaching me how to hold the bat and everything. And IT WORKED!!! I started hitting the ball well. I was so excited. Hats off to that man...

In other softball news. As our game began, some other guy from the bleachers decided he wanted one of our bats. he came into the fenced in area and took one and walked away. How do you stop someone from stealing a bat? They could just swing and hit you... Brave little Lisa tried after him. In the end, two of his friends (or at least fellow bleacher spectators) stopped him and returned our bat to us. Freaky. Three little boys joined us in our game last night too - it was really cute. They were really good too.

The Return of Zoom starts next week. We all got invites to the crew screening happening on Tuesday night. It's always nice to see movies for free. I'm desperately going to be movied out by Tuesday night...with the triple header at the drive in, high park's monday night screening and then Zoom. : p

Went to bulk barn today. Bought some candy (i know, and i was doing so well without it for the last few days...), dried apples and these sesame sticks (those flattish, roundish things). So yummy. I had forgotten about those things. I like the idea of the bulk barn type stores.

and that's about all i have to say about bulk.

I'm packing tonight. Then i'll probably go out later on. hugs.
