List as of Late

I haven't done one of my listy posts in foreva-eva (I'm sorry Ms. Jackson oooo). So I figured it would be a good idea today to sort through the bajillion things floating around in my brain.


♥ Europe has taken over a very large percentage of my thoughts. I'm going in late May/early June to visit the bff doing an exchange in Amsterdam and cannot wait. Today we decided that we're going to definitely do France and Poland and probably Germany too. My brain is just going crazy with all the planning and excitement over this once and lifetime trip.


♥ Part of me wants to stay single until this trip is completed, and am slightly afraid of meeting someone before then. Yes I could not date, but where's the fun in that? I'm talking to three potentials right now (in various stages of pre-date talking).

♥ I paid back the CRA today (our version of the IRS). It was a really painful payment (ahem $2700) but also just took away a ton of stress that has been clouding my thoughts.

♥ The only reason I had enough to pay for this today was because I have recently switched over to salary with my job, and while I was hourly I was 2 weeks behind in pay (submit, get paid two weeks later), with salary you get paid every two weeks up to date, so essentially I just got paid for 4 weeks today. Take that CRA (please give me a RETURN this year, then I'll love you).  

♥ I am on a cleaning SPREE. Last night I spent like 2 hours cleaning my pantry/laundry room and tonight I hope to accomplish more.

♥ I really need to get back to the gym but I'm stuck in a laziness I am struggling to get out of...somebody help me! 

♥ Vada has bad dandruff, this has never been a problem before... any suggestions? 

♥ I am really starting to get annoyed with this duck face (bang) business. Doesn't everyone know that it's called a Zoolander face? And doesn't everyone know we're doing it cause it's funny? No? That's not why they're making the face? That's why I'm making the face?

♥ I'm pretty sure I'm finally getting an iPad with work. Weeeeeeee

♥ I am buying a new snowboard in a couple of weeks before hitting the slopes in Banff. Man, life is good right now!

♥ Travel in general is taking another large percentage of my thoughts. I figured out today that I would have enough airmiles to go to Thailand (thigh-land bahaha) in about 13-14 months. Ummm yes please?

♥ I still need to unpack from two trips ago. 

 What's on your brain lately?
