Last weekend, I was running around wearing a light jacket. I grilled our supper outside on a bbq. It tasted like summer. Like the rest of the city, I was really hoping the nice weather would be here to stay. No such luck. It’s been freezing here all week. I come home, put on some slippers and pour myself countless cups of tea.
I’m really taking this new home owner role to heart. I don’t want to go into shock when I actually have to pay heat and hydro bills so I’m starting to wean myself off of the cozy apartment feel now. The sooner the better. We’ve been living in the tropics for the past year. Jimmy would seriously change into shorts and t-shirts the minute he got home from work. No more….I’m putting my slippered foot down. Now Jimmy’s menopausal mother will be able to visit longer than 5 minutes.
Ok, for anyone wondering….I called and no, Erin didn’t answer. I left voicemail asking her to call me back. Still haven’t heard from her. I was ready to forgive and give her another shot. Now I’m mad. Ignoring her phone calls was my right. She flashed her goodies to my family and friends at my wedding. She was in the wrong and I was allowed to be disappointed. What are the rules?? She should have returned my call right? She should be grateful that I want to talk again right?? Well then, why hasn’t she called? She’s as stubborn as I am I guess.
I’m on a search for sparkly silver flip-flops. I had the cutest pair last summer that I wore every day. They were damn uncomfortable for the first few weeks but I was determined to break the suckers in. Anyone up to the challenge to help me search??? I don’t know what you’re reward will be, but I promise it’ll be huge!!!

LMAO - I knew she wouldn't be there - that's just the way it goes!
For real though, I think you have every right to be upset with her. Until you have your talk, there is a good chance she doesn't even know why you are pissed at her. Some people really are that clueless.... TRUST ME... you know what I'm dealing with. But you should at least get the chance to explain why you were upset by her behavior. There's a good chance she'll avoid you for awhile now until one day she just calls you out of the blue like nothing's wrong...
Oh - and I will definately keep my eyes peeled for some sparkly flip flops!!!!
hugs!
hi there, just started reading your blog :) 'put my slippered foot down' - ha! you're cracking me up. that & the 'porno hair'! too funny.
I can imagine the cost of moving into a house will be huge!! The change, I know I will feel it soon too!! Let us know if she does call you back!!
oooh, i am always up for a shoe challenge! i will keep my eyes pealed :)
I'll hunt down here for you in the south where we are the flip flop capital...hehehe
I am so excited for you guys and you getting your own place. That is very exciting. Can't imagine what heat costs up in Timmins... must be fun.
Hope that you have yourself a great weekend.
Scott
If I see any, I'll let you know. :)
Congrats on the house! How quick was that? Yeah, you'd better start practicing up for the heating bills. What's with the sparkly flip flop thing? they seem to be everywhere down here in GA.
I'll be in for a rude awakening if I ever have to pay hydro/heat bills. I've always lived in all inclusive apts, so I'm not very thrifty.
Hmmmm, I'll keep an eye out for silvery sparkly flip flops for ya.
That's annoying that your friend didn't call back. I hate when the bad friend does that.
Have a good weekend!
