Toronto-ish

I've officially moved to Toronto. Officially, Etobicoke. Toronto sounds better. Etobicoke just makes me think of cola.

I love our apartment, but I've come to realize that it is... cursed. Weird things happen, and not the good kind. The power goes out, only in my room. The DVD player turns itself on again every time it's turned off. Things that worked outside of our house, stop working after they've been brought in here. We have ant tenants. The sink stopped letting anything down the drain, whenever it felt like it. FRIG. If people ask us how we got such a big apartment for so cheap, I now know how to explain it. Takes away from the magic of stumbling upon the place that was "meant for us" but, whatevs (as they say.)

I've figured out the bus portion of the TTC! - To and from work, so far. My job is okay, I transferred and discovered they wanted me in the back instead of on the sales floor like in St. Catharines... which is saaaweet. Most of my co-workers are nice. The rest, I either can't understand (cue smiling and nodding) or I just haven't really got a chance to talk to them at all.

I haven't been able to do anything really fun and exciting, since I have no money still, from moving. I'm looking forward to getting a steady pay cheque again, after not working for about 2.5 weeks (sick-ing/camping/moving.)

I'm kind of lonely here because Asta doesn't officially live here yet, and my friends who live in Toronto live closer to downtown. Getting there is kind of a trek (oh yes and, one that also costs money.) Eventually, I'll be living that Toronto life that I used to envy about people. HA. And maybe there will be more people in it.

I miss my friends from St. Kittens. Babs has moved to Newfie Land now, so saying goodbye to her was pretty emotional. It makes me so sad that I got to become close to such an awesome "lass" in just a few months, and now she's gone and moved kinda far away, and I really don't know when I'll be able to see her again.

I'm going to go and find something to occupy my mind again so I can forget that I have things to stress about (until Monday - oh yeah, did I mention that I'm a 9-5 girl now? Well, 9:30-4:30 - but that just doesn't sound right!)
