So I think I’m FINALLY over my cold. That makes me very happy. It felt like forever… so today, on my day off, just as I was feeling better, I visit… DUM DUM DUUUUUUMMM…. the DENTIST! Actually, I saw the Dentist last week for x-rays and stuff. Today I went in to get cleaning and a few cavities filled. Just as it was a year ago, it is now time to resume where we left off last January fixing my incredibly jacked up teeth. Today, 3 of 9 cavities were filled. 2 more will be bound in two weeks and then possibly a crown on the 6th. We shall see how much insurance money I have left after that (and how much I actually have myself) and proceed from there. I will probably have a total of 6 crowns in my mouth by the end of the year. Yay! I’m like becoming a robot… with fake teeth… Anyway, my jaw still hurts. :(

Last night I watched the 24 premier (part 1) at Joe & Frances’ and tonight here at Kev’s. Woah, what a season opener. I will have to reschedule my gym nights to Tuesdays or something. Too good to miss…

So this past week has had its ups and downs…

UPS:
- New Years Eve at Bryan’s
- Eating out… a LOT
- Passing Twilight Princess (finally)
- Cooking dinner for the first time in a LONG time

DOWNS:
- Going back to work
- Getting some sort of sore throat sickness from my co-workers
- Being broke

I was a very happy spender this holiday season and given that a Wii (and all its accessories) is not a normal annual expense, it’s dug quite a hole in my pocket this holiday season. But now that I’ve passed Twilight Princess and the nephews are gone, I’m not as itching to play with the Wii so it’s back to my good old DS. Right now, I’m feeling so lazy and I haven’t been to the gym since Monday because of this cold thing I have. I’m contemplating going this evening but that depends if I feel any better after a nap.

This morning I woke up, finished off the napa soup I had made Thursday night for dinner and washed the dishes. It’s been nice having a sense of freedom around the condo now that Gorilla Man is gone. It’s been good getting to know the new roomie but I know I haven’t been as engaging because, well, i feel like crap and throwing up all the time. I have discovered through our TV viewing time together that he is apparently “one of those” type of people that love MTV (or MTV2?), Whatevers. Not my type of station, but defintely an improvement over Gorilla’s TV watching marathon like schedules and leaving 2 tvs on while blaring iTunes on his compy and taking a smoke outside while blabbing so loud on his cell that neighbors in Canada can hear his conversations… so am I glad he’s gone? Yes. Did I hate the guy? No. It was actually weird and strange the past few weeks (you know, with Kev evicting him and all), but he wasn’t a bad person per say. He just wasn’t someone I enjoyed living with or talking to. He did have a convenient Cuisinart food processor though which I will miss. Guess that’ll have to go on my Amazon wish-list then eh?
