why oh why not.
iTunes is spinning: gym class heroes -"cupid's chokehold"so, it's official, we've finally found a new place to move into that fit all but well i guess one of our requirements.
1. it's in the annex (bloor-bathurst/spadina-esque area for those who don't know)
2. has outdoor space, a HUGE backyard for beebs and suntanning sessions!
3. one bedroom, and able to install an a/c unit.
i'm so excited to move in! we'll have it for may which means that i'll most likely be throwing my june birthday bash at the new place weather permitting with a huge housewarming beebeeque! it's going to be so nice moving back to a place that consist of more than just one room the size of 'this' table.
the weather has been so nice in toronto lately, i've managed to squeeze a few patio sessions in on those rare days i got let off early from work and last weekend. but today the showers finally hit. the boy and i had lunch at butler's pantry down the street where we nabbed the window seat in the fairly empty place and became a captive audience to the rain come pouring down and the car being towed across the street. for once, we both polished off our dishes and pints of course, albeit the serving portions were on the smaller side of the norm, but we weren't complaining, because this left room for dessert. a rarity in most cases as i'm usually too full. then the boy had to jet off to work braving the rain and rush hour traffic to head to work. i came home to the itty bitties.
speaking of, the itty bitties have seem to caught some sort of a virus while at the vet (getting neutered and spayed) last week, they came home with a wheezing cough that did not sound healthy at all, not eating and pooing ickyness. another visit to the vet they came home armed with a week's worth of antibiotics. while the cough has subsided and they've gotten their appetities back, the pooing ickyness still goes on. great.
tomorrow i am going to buy myself some wellies. green ones i hope.
it's ten four nine pm: and it's time to snuggle into an empty bed with a book and some kitties keeping it warm.

what may come.
iTunes is spinning: donna summers -"hot stuff"so, after just a few mere weeks working, i've officially become the number one seller in the east for my company. woo go me, sr. sales position here i come. i hope. i could really use the extra perks. extra being extra cashola and a bigger discount. not that i need to shop anymore... (baby i'm not shopping!!!). in other news, i went to look a pretty one bedroom last night with a HUGE patio on the urging of russ. it was a little out of our price range in terms of what we could really afford or want to pay to rent. but this place has charm and it's so pretty. top floor of the house, cute bay window, two big closets (baby, you can have half of one!) and of course this patio, which was really what justifies it for us, especially for the summer. bbeebs and tanning parties. mmm can't wait. now all we have to do is get it! i was first to hand in my application (yay a week of being firsts!) so hopefully he does abide by the first come first serve rule. and then as of june first, we'll no longer be living in a place "the size of this table"........but all in due time, the hot water in our little apartment has been on the fritz lately, and after two weeks of saying "maybe it's just because someone used it all up" i emailed the landlord to which he figured out one of the tanks was finished. so now we just have sprint showers because the warm water only lasts for about 5 minutes.
the past few nights have been sleepless, as miss oni cakes has been frightful. she just mews and meows at the top of her bitty lungs for no good reason at all, and running all around and jumping up and down from the loft bed annoying us all in the process. no wonder onikoroshi means demon slayer and thus the name of a fierce sake, i now know why, but me thinks she might be in heat! hah. our little girl is growing up, good thing her and shogi gets chopped and tied or whatever they do on monday! thank god. i still love the little brattycakes, she takes after me, a girl just needs a good whine once in a while.
it's eleven four on am: and this weather is miserable, didn't i tell you that toronto was a tease with all that nice weather we had...tsk tsk.

with all my non love.
iTunes is spinning: en vogue -"free your mind"so last night i went to the movies and a favourite activity is to scope out the new trailers in anticipation of what 'great' movies would be in the upcoming months. and this one caught my mind, it's a movie called
across the universe (click to see a trailer). what i usually avoid is movie musicals, moulin rouge i've never watched, chicago i've attempted to watch a few times but always fell asleep quarter way in, phantom of the opera was ok, i guess when i watch a movie musical it's not so much that i mind the musical talent, but i hate that they have to sing out every conversation. regardless, this movie looks enticing and i can't wait for the fall to arrive (but not before i soak up some much much much desperation of sunray in the summer).
today, we went to drop off the car where we bought it to have it throughly inspected to see what the few kinks were. so after chilling at sherway gardens for a good chunk of time, lunch date in the foodcourt, browing books at the chapters, a stop at walmart, walking across highway overpasses and lots of adult video stores...the boy and i finally found a pub in between that and the car place. it was actually a pub/indian restaurant, still very much so authentic in it's decorative spacing and beer choices, but i have to admit the smell of curry and spices in the air had my mouth watering enough to decide to return to etobicoke sometime later on in life to try their indian dishes. however, we did snack on some of the best samosas i've had in...well forever! but the consensus between him and i are that one walking tour of etobicoke is enough in a lifetime.
on a happy note, i bought myself some sexy new darts. having always used what the boy had, i finally own a set of my very own, black, pink and finished off with an english rose flight. and to break them in of course we had to visit another pub (but back in the much much better for a walking tour, downtown toronto). having pretty darts sure make me play better.
it's one five five am: and for a day off, i sure did a lot of strenuous walking.
