<-- my life, by webgoddesscathy --> :: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 :: I am about to be a huge loser and tell you about my amazing night: Day One Without Jaap. I biked to work and after work rode to meet Anita. We went for a 2-hour bike ride in Mount Pleasant Cemetary. I was still home by 8pm. So I started cleaning. Laundry in the washer. Bathroom. Done. Laundry in the dryer. Delicates in the sink and hanging on the drying rack. Kitchen. Done. Bedroom. Done. Now I'm sitting on my exerflex ball, my bills paid, blogging and eating the tomato-cucumber salad that uses up all of my parents' veggies that were otherwise going to go bad. After this, I'm giving myself a manicure becuase I ate off each and every one of my fingernails today. Day One and I've already done Everything. Productive. But let me tell you, it can only get worse. I'm totally going to miss him. :: Cathy 6:00 PM [+] :: 1 comments :: Tuesday, September 06, 2005 :: Jaap's last night in Toronto was a little bit of toronto-cathy majik. We walked up to Dufflet's to have some yummy treats before embarking on our Northern Ravines & Gardens Discovery Walk. We finished in the dark and walked home. Unfortunately some crazy guy walked up to me on the sidewalk and randomly screamed at me, scaring the crap out of me. Weird. We went on to Dairy Queen. As usual. I used my buy-one-get-one-free coupon for blizzards. We're Dutch. We love deals. And then we went to AlleyCatz to listen to the live swing band. I even danced a song. I've decided that I want to start going to class again. I love dancing, even though I suck at it. I will miss Jaap - now who will I hang out with?! He leaves tomorrow for St. John's and who knows when he'll be back. :: Cathy 8:07 PM [+] :: 1 comments :: Monday, September 05, 2005 :: Ontario is synonymous with the cottage-weekend. Sadly, I've never been one to experience it - I've never had a cottage. This weekend, I rented a car and took a bunch of my friends up north for the long weekend. Sarah, Jaap, Alex and I drove to Bala on Friday to catch Alex's band playing in the battle of the bands at The Kee. Of course, the most horrible band won, as is wont to happen in battles. I do NOT know why they keep entering. The hopes of winning compromises their sense. After the show, we got lost before winding our way to Washago and Mill Island, where her dad has a lovely cottage. We canoed, walked the town, went on adventure drives, ate a lot and read our books in the sunshine. It was great. On our way home, we decided to go by way of Midland (not exactly on the way). I thought maybe I could show Jaap the Martyr Shrine, St. Marie-Among-the-Hurons, Wye Marsh. Well, all of the above are quite expensive undertakings. Even the church is $3 for each person. I was surprised by that. I know, they need to keep up the buildings... maybe we should have gone on, but I really couldn't say that it was actually worth it. I can't remember anymore. I was there when I was something like 8 years old. We ate lunch and continued on to Tiny Beach Road and skirted Georgian Bay all the way down to Wasaga. What a great beach that is. Too bad about the people. And the tacky. Really, too bad. We stopped in at my parents' house for a quick hello before heading off for some Alliston Dairy Queen and then home before the horrible long weekend traffic. We even managed to go for a walk over to Theresa's house and have some tea over her Newfoundland pictures. I love my friends. I love the summer. I don't want it to end. :: Cathy 7:14 PM [+] :: 0 comments
