Delayed... Delayed... Delayed

I'm sitting here watching Air Canada's site refreshing the window to find out when her flight is leaving Calgary. It's delayed more than 30 minutes now. The weather had better just stop whatever it's doing because I really don't think I should have to wait any longer for this moment. There is freezing rain warnings right now and snowfall warnings for Wednesday. It couldn't be a better day to lock ourselves inside and cuddle in front of the fireplace with a bunch of movies. However, she actually has to arrive here first.

I can't remember the last time I've waited in such anticipation for something. My mind is constantly racing forward to the moment that I get to see her again at the airport and how wonderful her smile will be in person. I've already got the picture in my head as she walks through those doors.

Life has been so wonderful lately.

67 hours and counting

I don't post much at all lately and this is a completely pointless post, however, she arrives at midnight in a couple days and I'm having trouble containing my excitement. That might explain why I'm awake right now. I'll probably sleep like the dead when she is here.

Finally picked up the gym membership and some very nice running shoes. I had a surprise the other morning when I found out I was 10 pounds heavier than I thought I was. Damn my lazy ass, but it was the motivation I needed to get this underway. In a month or so I should be able to say hello to my abs, which haven't been visible in a long time. I should also be far better equipped for snowboarding next year in BC.

I'm thinking about a mass invite for supper on Saturday, March 4th as my birthday celebrations. I think The Keg would be a great place to hang out after work and have some drinks and food with friends. Maybe I'll send an invite out and see what kind of responses I get. Sadly I won't be hanging out late that night because Nash leaves on Sunday morning and there are other things we will be busy with.

That's enough with this pointless, choppy post. I think I'll go back to bed for a while now and dream about not working today.

Opeth

Happy Birthday to me... Opeth will be here 2 days after my birthday on March 7th. I should mention that opening for them is Dark Tranquillity and Devil-Driver. Hell yes.

I have my tickets, do you have yours?

Also, it turns out I am also getting a girlfriend for my birthday as well. Well, actually I have a girlfriend, but I actually get to see her. She is hopping on 3 flights just to come down here to hang out for 5 days. That is possibly the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me... it even eclipses the BMW that she bought me for Christmas (it was a toy... It was sweet... and I did ask for a Bimmer). I love her. This will be the best birthday ever.

I have been trying to post an update, but no matter how much I try, I just can't get words down to explain my life right now. I'm just tied up with so many different things that I can't really get things into a coherent post. Any spare time that isn't tied up in work, maintaining a long distance relationship or figuring out my living and job situation in BC, is tied up with a couple of job ventures that I can't seem to get out of my head. Hopefully my research will pay off and I can actually pursue something when I'm in BC. For the time being... lots and lots of homework in order to make sure things might actually be profitable.

Now... I also need to stop having nightmares and waking up at 4am. 2 weeks of a couple of different recurring nightmares is a little too much. It's actually exhausting me. Why does the alien have to eat the bear? And why does my sister find that funny? She's usually not that inconsiderate. And when will I actually find out what the hell is chasing me up the mountain? And who the hell is running with me? I wonder if these questions will ever be answered?

God... I hate nightmares.

Alright... back to my regularly scheduled night of work. BORING.
