i am overjoyed. i am the epitome of "overjoy." why? well, today sean woke me up at 10:45 with a phone call. i sleep late due to being on my night schedule. he asked me out to lunch with cristal and him. they are still dating and still just right for eachother. i'm thrilled. so we went to lunch at kyoto on campus and then to his new place. nice little bungalow that he and his parents are fixing up to rent out. it's really occupied ALL of his time. sean is a guy that i don't get mad at for hearing from once in awhile cause we just jump back to where we left off. he tore up the whole yard, front and back, to level it and they are going to seed and get it all started again. the basement is fugly with wood panelling... the sort of stuff i thought was extinct in houses in this era. guess not. him and his sister, ashlee, are living upstairs. ashlee is going out with nigel who bought an acreage east of highway 21. nigel has a business where he runs 2 bobcats and does... bobcat stuff. you know... all the stuff you need a bobcat for, nigel does. you bobcatters understand me, and for the rest of you, meh, not important. best part of this whole moving out, moving up, moving on bit, is that timo has moved to calgary. didn't ask anymore beyond that but that is what makes me so happy! all this time i have been reluctant to hang out with sean because it always involves going out, staying away from the house for fear of running into timo and new girl at the house. i'm all about avoiding awkward situation. even sean said it, "now we can hang out way more." and it's so true. maybe not so much once school is back in. he's going back to school too for an after degree in education. and cristal will be working. she works with SKILLS, a social work thing where she tries to place homeless people and get them off the street. very honorable stuff that only certain people are cut out for. so after checking out the house, we went cat shopping. that's right, cat shopping. with the move, nigel kept buffy who i also helped choose 2 years ago. apparently buffy froze to the roof in february. climbed up there. was freezing cold and afraid so parked herself by the heat vent and stayed there as rain came pouring down and froze her skinny little body solid to the shingles. the fire department performed a rescue and now she's all messed up. ears, legs, you name it. the cat sean and cristal got is beautiful! just a domestic long hair with brown, grey, blond and red streaks. so nice, with blue centered eyes that fade out to green.

point, i'm happy! happy day! good to see sean. i love that guy!
