Blasted Bug Bite...trying saying that three times fast

I woke up this morning feeling fine until I got to work and felt that something was wrong with my arm. Sure enought I roll up my sleeve and there's this huge bug bite, but it's not itchy but rater tender. So after work I go to the Tata hospital and the Doctor says that it's infected and perscribes me some medication...which later costs $80 (cream and antibiotics) Holy Guacomolie!
If I catch the bug who did this I'm gonna bite him and make him pay for my perscription!

On a lighter note, we had a great time at my cousin's wedding! She was so beautiful and everyone just had a fantastic time! Thank you so much Pam and Adam for accomodating us, we really appretiate it! Sorry girls we couldn't visit with you or in Jenn U's case have a longer visit.
But we will be back very very soon :)

Pascal is awesome

I literally had a night from hell last night...This nike event is sooo unorganized it's sickening.
We stayed until 1AM getting everything finalized...WHICH SOULD HAVE BEEN FINALIZED IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!...not too mention than having people still checking in, coming to eat in the great room past the time they are opened...which i feel bad about since I got the phone call asking if the coach, that was still coming in with 6 guests could still get food, so I called the kitchen they said yes and I relayed that on to the guest...except I should have asked Craig the dinning room supervisor if that was alright, so he was quite upset however if the dinning room has closed and these VIP guests didn't get any food than it would have looked bad on our part..so I'm not sure if I should feel bad or not.
Than Jenn drives me home and tells me that she had a meeting with Steven Joyce and he proceeded to tell her and Constantin that are whole department is the worst one out of all the resort! Well if that doesn't put the cherry on top of the shit pie last night I don't know what would..So feeling very frustrated and very tired and went off sulking to my room, feeling horrible about myself.
Until Pascal came in and saw me upset and comforted me. I truly love him and I don't care if I have a bad day if I can come home to every night, it would all be good.
I realized today that I am good at my job, I am organized, and everyone makes mistakes and how you own up to them and learn from them makes you a better person.
I am very much looking forward to the weekend. Not only because this horrible event will be over but WE get to go to Halifax and see our friends and celebrate my cousins wedding.....is it Saturday yet?

Is it normal to wait 45 minutes for your appetizers!!!!

Well it was interesting today. Jenn and I were planning to go see Angels and Demons today in Truro. However the movie was playing later than expected so we opted out and decided to go to Big Al's in Tatamagouche...safe idea right? Wrong!!! We get there and the place is already really crowded. Plus there was no where to sit except one table that was dirty but hey, we thought, they would come by and clean up the table...wrong again...we waited at least 10 minutes to be greated and finally get some menus. So once we finally put our order in (which by the way took another 10 minutes)it takes about 30minutes to just get our appetizers! Not to mention we had two ladies come in after us and they got served berfore we did!!!! Such a big nono! When finally got our apps (I was never so happy in my life to see food!) Then we got our main dishes after that. The ladies who were waitressing were very nice on a positive note and you could tell they were run wragged over how busy it was, however when it came time to pay our bill, they did nothing to compensate us! Jenn and I and ordered a second pop thinking they would comped for it due to the fact that we waited forever to get our food but when we got to the counter she was confused as to why we would one of our pops comped. We said we had to wait 45 minutes for our appetizers alone plus we sat at a dirty table! We wouldn't have needed the extra pop if it wouldn't have taken so long! She said that wasn't really their fault as they were sooooo busy and that other peoples orders were delayed as well. What kind of rationalizing is that! She said she would comp it but that it would come out of her pocket. What kind of place are they running where they can't compensate for their faults! So Jenn didn't tip her but I did cause she was nice (I don't know what's wrong with me) but it's guilt money for her plus I told her I wasn't impressed and that I was writing a comment card. Sad thing is I'll probably never go back but the food is really good.
Oh well , have to focus on the positive, had some good food, a nice sunny day to lay out and got to watch Taledega Nights and Anchorman. Now I get to hang out with Pascal :)
I was sorry to miss the girls BBQ but I heard it went off great! Congrats girlies!

Hali was definately what the Doctor ordered

Halifax was so very good for my soul on Monday. I really needed to see the girls and the city and was sooo good. I got to spend equal time with everyone. Jenn and Tina and did a little shoping with me (got their bridesmaid dresses) Jenn U came by too. Hung out at Tina's for a mini bbq. Ellen and I got to hangout pretty much in the morning and had some McD's while discussing wedding things. And I got to hangout with Pammy in the pool. Plus I found my dress for my cousin's wedding in Fairweathers in Dartmouth Crossing. Good Trip as far as I'm concerned. The only thing that was missing was Pascal..which he is not a thing, I know.

Pas finally got two days off and was gung ho to go somewhere but decided not to cause the thought of going somewhere unknown alone with the car and not me didn't really appeal to him. So instead he arranged for Mike to take him out clay shooting. Unfortunately Mike bailed cause he had to do inventory. If Mike would have given Pas sufficient notice that he couldn't do it instead of just calling at 6pm and telling Heidi that he couldn't do it, it might have been alright...NOT! He was so dissapointed. He was really looking forward to it. Especially since he put other plans on hold to go and do it. No one makes my Swizzlestick sad! Mike, sleep with one eye open....alright, maybe not that far but....be prepared for a hello with no smile! That's right! You better shiver bitch!

On a side note I checked in Emily Bastock into the resort today with her husband, boyfriend, whatever. It was alright I was like "Emily right?" HAHAHAHA Isn't it great when you don't have to remember the snobby people in High school!

Well not sure what to do this week. My goal is to at least get one day off with Pascal. That way we can finally do something!!! Let's see how it works out :)
