so, life recap.
monday morning i got up at 6-something-am and went to the hospital with josh for his pre-op appointment and some x-rays. it was actually pretty rad. it's nice to be friends and be able to laugh again and it not be fucking weird and awful. and i know, sg, i know what you're all screaming. and i'm hearin' it from everyone. yes, josh hurt me and was a giant douche but i don't gain anything from being one back. and maybe i am a sucker. sctatch that. maybe my heart is too big but i'd rather it be that way than too small and cold. so, friends it is. i just have to try harder to stop going so out of my way for him. sadly right now i just can't seem to help it.
anyway we went to the hospital and it was fun. i like hospitals. i find them interesting and they instantly give me a weird cabin fever that makes me laugh a lot and get giddy and loopy and crack jokes. we watched 'maury' and the show was about cougars (bla bla bla yeah i get the irony) but serious ones, not like me. 40yr old females and 16yr old boys confronted by very pissed off mothers. it was pretty entertaining. when we left we got some burittos and watched simpsons all afternoon. then i took off to clean my apartment for my parents arrival.

which brings the next update...

my parents are here! as i type my beloved canadians and roach are painting the living room at misfit island and listening to old bollywood music. um, hello amazing life!!! yesterday we went to golden lotus (of course) for lunch and i made them vegan shrimp and yummy saffron rice and lemon garlic spicy asparagus for dinner and it was blissful. yeah, my life is pretty much based on food. but at least it's healthy amazing more often than not vegan food.
this is the happiest/healthiest my parents have seen me in a number of years. possibly since i left canada. i think it's really doing them good and helping their sleep at night to see me back to normal and laughing a lot and healthy. when i think about how many visits have been plagued with problems i am over the moon excited to be showing them a good time and not hiding anything. be it an abusive relationship or drug problem or serious depression. not that they couldn't see through it. but it's a nice change and i plan on keeping life goin' in this direction.

tonight i'm going to go kick it with adam_vincent for his birthday for a bit pretty stoked on that. i wasn't planning on going out while my folks were here but when it's your buddy's birthday, you act accordingly.

happy hump day sg...
