A week happily over

WOW... I just read CryWolfe's Blog for Saturday, April 22, 2006. What a week. I need to do the same thing but mine is not going to be near as exciting or upbeat.
It has been since Sunday, April 16, 2006 since I have done a blog with any real content, and that one was pretty light.
So Monday nothing major happened except for one thing that upset me and threw me off for pretty much the rest of the week. It is pretty much resolved now though I have to admit it still bothers me a bit.
Tuesday was me in a grumpy mood at work for the whole day. In the evening Tracy and Gord came over for some games. TRUTH OR DARE JENGA - Not so good. The questions end up being pretty lame. I'll stick to the original, which after a couple drinks is an awesome time. CRANIUM - That game has way too much going on. Definite pass on that one. BALDERDASH - Yeah that's a winner. Need to pick that one up for the next games night with Meghan and Claire. I think it will go over big.
Wednesday... What can I say? 3 appointments and I don't think one of them was successful.
Number one. Mortgage Broker. He sounded positive but really I am not thinking that is going to go far. He suggested getting a co-signer would definitely give me a better chance but I am not too sure I want that.
Number two. Credit Union. That one went nowhere. I think Credit Unions are way too socialist for me. As odd as it sounds I feel more comfortable with a totally capitalistic bank. I know they are trying to screw me they don't hide it.
Number three. The Dentist. Yeah I went for 3 issues that I could tell I had. Missing fillings, chipped tooth, etc. Sat there for almost an hour while he worked then once I had feeling back in my tongue I realized all 3 issues were still there. Apparently he found something I didn't even know about. I am sure he was probably quite clear in what he told me he was doing but really it's not like he can point it out to me. I have no clue what's going on in there. Anyway I do have another appointment to get more done so hopefully the rest will be taken care of next time.
Wednesday also had me invading Dan and Meghan's hetero tea date. Then dinner for which Claire joined us. Then off to COLA. Then 7 of us went to Lonestar for drinks.
Thursday we can pass on for now. Other than to say there was some communication that was long overdue. Still lots more to come I think but one has to start somewhere.
Friday Dan's lovely and sweet friend Dea was in town before heading back to UK so we met her and some friends for drinks at the Queen's Pub. Dea is such a riot. She is in some ways the female version of Gord. Awesome sense of humour, very quick, very sweet, and very charming. Okay so not all that much like Gord. So anyway, that was a good time. Left there around 11PM, thought briefly about heading to The Merchant where a gang from work were hanging out but really just wanted to come home at that point. Over all it has been a very long week and I have been feeling a bit drained.
Tonight we are tentatively booked for Chinese food with Howie, Neil, Meghan and Claire. Followed by drinks at Tango perhaps. Then maybe off to The Foo as we were invited there by Bryan. Apparently everyone associated with Queens and who is a queen is going... Or something like that anyway. So we'll see what happens.
That's it for now. I'll keep y'all posted...
