st. pattys day fun!

0

Wednesday.

Yeah, I know, St. Pattys was last Saturday, so what’s the holdup? I had to snag some of these photos from Kristens camera, so it’s taken a few days, seeing as we’re busy chicks and all.

So I worked all day at the LD on St. Pattys Day, then we got ready and went up to the Queens Cross (of course) for our evening of green and drinkies…

Just three girls, innocently enjoying ourselves and our Irish beverages,

When along comes Corby the Robot,

… and it all goes downhill from there …

But at least we were sporting our GREEN!

And that’s all she wrote for that night. The next day we headed off to the aquarium, which rocked, because well, the aquariumrocks and I love fishies! I have lots of good photos, but I’ll post them next time. For now I’ll include Kate and Kristens shenanagins at Kits beach when we went for a stroll after the aquarium…

We then walked all the way from Kits beach to Granville Island, and hung around in the market for a while before walking back to Kits beach and off to dinner. This photo is for all of you freezing out east … enjoy!

I know I say it all the time, but I love Vancouver!

Tuesdays are that much closer to the weekend.

Tuesday.

There is just SO MUCH going on these days!

I’m still running, and we’re up to 55 minutes this week, heading into 75 next week. I find that pretty darn amazing considering when I started I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to run for 3 minutes a few times over. Incredible!

I’m also trying to make it out to bellydancing lessons on Wednesday nights, because it’s SO MUCH FUN and great exercise too. I’ll have to download some indian bellydancing music so I can practice at home – hee hee!

Kristen & I went out for a fancy dinner and a night of dancing last Saturday night, thanks to a lovely giftcard from bobnbev that I got as a valentine’s present! We went to Milestone’s and then Celebrities, the same places we went to for Kristen’s birthday back in January. I of course ordered the “special” bellini, the one that come with an extra shot of pineapple rum to pour on top. Kristen ordered one too and we had fun playing with the little plastic animals that come with the drinks…

From work yesterday I took this photo, it’s part of the view from my cube, and I just LOVE the way my building and the marine building reflect in the building across the street on a sunny day.

And here’s me pretending to be normal after goofing off (rarely captured in photos … honest) in the living room…

Tonight is “clean the house like maids on speed” night. We’re both looking forward to cleaning the heck out of the place and getting it to look normal again. Tomorrow is bellydancing, and life just continues to be busy after that … Kristen’s friend Kate is arriving on Friday for a crazy girls’ weekend, which just happens to coincide with St. Patty’s day, so this ought to be interesting! She’ll be here until next Tuesday, so I’m sure she’ll end up being featured in the next installment here as well.

Thankfully I only work at LD Saturday during the day again, and have Sunday off. Sweet! That’s been my schedule for the past few weeks and I love it – I’m hoping that will continue for a bit.

I still haven’t heard anything official about my term at EC, so I’ve still got my fingers crossed.

Bobnbev and gorhorr are already planning their flights out here this summer – WOOHOO!!! I managed to convince gorhorr to get her ass out here for a second year in a row, so it’ll be fantastic to have the whole family together here again for at least a couple of weeks.

That’s it for now … over and out!
