Work Place High Jinks

The other day at work I was feeling a bit restless so I played a little joke on my co worker Erika. I pulled out a stunt I used to use in high school, twisting up an elastic band really tight and then letting it go in someone's hair so it gets really tangled and knotted. I guess I must have made it a little to tight because she was forced to cut it out and then swore revenge on me. For the next few days I was a little on edge waiting for something bad to happen but nothing came of it so I just thought she was all talk. Then on friday morning I was asked to run to Costco to pick up lunch for that day, and when I went out side to my car this is what I saw...



They really pulled one over one me, I had no idea, I'm trying to think of something to get her back, but good pranks are hard to come up with.

Edmonton's Biggest Snowman?


I few weeks ago I came across something pretty amazing. It's what I believe to be the largest snowman in Edmonton, it was so increadable I needed to share it with someone, so I took my friend chelsea and she posed with him. It's not really that interesting of a story but the pictures are pretty impresive.

fat tuesday

This year for lent I have decided to give up two of my favorite things, starbucks and candy. It is going to be pretty hard since I have an addiction both. I am ashamed to say that I can be seen most mornings at the starbucks on calgary trail and 34th waiting for my triple venti non fat no whip sugar free cinnamon dolce latte... it will be hard stop, I'll have to resort to drinking the weak bland coffee from the work coffee pot...sick. But I'm pretty certain I can do it, and on the plus side it will be a nice break on my bank account.
The candy on the other hand will be a challenge on a whole other level, I love candy. My candy of choice...sour gummies, namely jolly rancher screamin' sours. I usually have at least on bag a week, they're just so good, my mouth is watering just thinking about them now, I haven't really come up with a strategy on how I'm going to go a whole month with out them, or any candy for that matter I guess just take it one day at a time...after all Jesus went for 40 days without any food so I'm pretty sure I can go without candy for that long.
Is anyone else giving something up? Or have you in the past?

The snooze button


Every morning I set my alarm for 6:30 and I end up pushing snooze until 7:00, I can't help it, I'm addicted. My number one new years resolution this year was to not use snooze...it worked for one day and the next morning I went right back to it. I feel like I have tried everything I can think of. I tried setting my alarm for 6:00 but I still ended up sleeping till 7:00. I moved my alarm clock across the room so I have to get out of bed to turn it off, but then I didn't wake up at all because I couldn't hear the buzzer. I even went to bed at 8:30 one night last week but it didn't seem to make a difference in the morning. I need help, does anyone have some advice for a desperate snooze addict?
