Banff Hot Springs

Here is a pic of me and Saa in the Banff Hot Springs change room...prolly not allowed but I thought of that afterwards...

The springs were awesome...If I lived close to Banff, I'd totally rent out that place and throw a huge bash.
And this is a bonus picture cause I like to share the fact that I'm a moron with the world...it was taken at the University of Calgary in broad daylight with no substances in my system what so ever.

Anyways, hope everyone is doing great! I'll post about my happenings soon, I've just been uber busy trying to figure them out right now.

Drunkest Nite Ever

Well, you're in for a treat today folks! You get to hear tales of drunkeness aaand watch my cat make its way from the floor to my shoulder while looking at my terrible terrible morning hair.

Ok, maybe not the drunkest nite 'ever'...I've been far far more drunk before...I think.

It started off as one of those days...I wanted to dance and dancing around the house as I made beat box sounds just wasn't going to satisfy me like it has on other dance craving occasions.

I called my girl Mich, she was busy but then she told me that Shantastic was going out! yay! I want to go out! The problem was that she was going to the yacht club...which is a bar full of teeny bopper little 18 and 19 year olds (no offence to my younger readers...but I'm just too old for that)

But I go anyways...and I had a great time!

(step 1: showing my terrible morning hair...it was all over the place..kitty low on lap)

1. I discovered that my old 'favorite' cute bartender still works there from the times when I was a teeny bopper. I believe I got over 20 free drinks for me and whoever was smart enough to come get a drink with me.

(cat has made its appearance...I'm trying to hug her so that she doesn't go on my shoulder)

2. I discovered that Shanna's roomate's boyfriend is also Ukrainian (well he's Ukrainian and Polish) so we celebrate our slavic heritage by drinking vodka doubles...I don't remember how many.

(this is the part where she steps on my boobs for leverage as she gets her plump little cat body onto my shoulder...and pokes me in the eye with her tail)

3. I discovered that many girls try too hard at bars...why must you wear a skirt that barely covers your ass and then dance like you don't know how to feel a beat because you're too busy trying to look 'sexy'. LMAO...oh stupid young girls...one day you'll learn...hopefully... (note: I was never one of those girls...I've always been a moron)

(she is in her 'old school' position of wrapping around my neck)

4. I discovered that I don't remember getting back to Shannas place, but I do recall waking up this morning, half on a couch and I was missing my necklace and jacket...oh stupid Heather...one day you'll learn...hopefully.

(but she has become to fat for that position so her new position is slinging herself over just one shoulder)

5. I discovered that it IS possible to still sleep till 1 in the afternoon....I haven't done that for a long long while.

Ok...time to get my hungover ass to football practice...hope everyone had a great weekend!

Great Times Had By Me.

Well, I'm back from my trip and it was a good time. I have a lot to write about it, but maybe thats for another day when I'm less tired and don't have plans of waking up early.

But I leave you with....a picture...

Oh What A Night

I'm in Calgary, yep Calgary.

I was supposed to come in yesterday, but my flight got cancelled and they said the only way I could get to Calgary from Winnipeg is if I took a 4 hour flight to Vancouver, stay there for 3 hours and then take a 2 hour flight back east to Calgary...I decided to wait till today.

Here is my hour by hour drunk escapades:

Hour 1: I bend over to pick up my bag from the turn style bag thing only to be mounted by Saara as she runs up to me in the airport. Saara has had 3 hours of a supervisory committee meeting and after being called 'a live one' she is definetly ready for some action. Saara is already disoriented and after a mere hour with her I am also becoming goofy disoriented...its the effect we have on each other.

Stupid moment of the hour:
Heather (to saara) "Hey! Do you know Saara?"
Saara (looking confused as I meant to say Cindy not Saara)

Hour 2: After a fine dinner of Sushi and White Russians (that Ian so fantastically made)...we amused ourselves and Loki with a laser pointer show...I then dabbled on Ians Takamine that he just bought (a fantastic choice indeed) and now we're getting ready for a good good time...even gooder than it currently is...which is pretty good. (note: I've been drinking)

Stupid moment fo the hour:
Saara: "White Russians and Sushi go so well together"
Heather: "Yeah cause nothing says Japanese like a White Russian"

Fast Forward uh...a few hours I guess...oh I don't know what time it is anymore...

We took the C train all the way down to a cowboy bar so we could ride the bull...and ride the bull we did! I noticed that a: short legs suck when riding a bull and b: girls look waaaay hotter than guys when bull riding...

A few more hours...oh, I was doing so well with hour 1 and 2...

Now we have ordered a delicious pizza...and wings. Saara is passed out and me and Ian are watching the absolute worst soft core porn show ever about an alien named Hafron who apparently does this earth chick named Emmanuel and then he was found out by the American alien police and then they went to Ireland where there was a 10 minute scene of her bathing...and we're not sure why or what it has to do with the plot or really what this show is all about...oh and they get about a sentence in of plot and then they're off doing it again for about 10 minutes...and we're laughing our asses off...oh crazy showcase channel. Ian and I finally concluded that we are going write a show with spaceships and sex and crazy crazy headpieces that the aliens wear and rich snobby guys with puffy sleeves that drive fancy cars and godzilla sound effects...what?!? Its already been done? Shit.

Ian: "tonites forcast calls for flurries of passion followed by extended periods of gettin it on"
Heather: (on the floor laughing my ass off)
Ian: "man, this show was totally robbed of an oscar...or a daytime Grammy"
Heather: "I think this show should have definetly been a nominee for a woody"

Drumroll Please!


Well, I know there was a large number of fellow bloggers who favoured the red hair I was sporting in the fall....but after much consideration and talking to my hairdresser (amongst other people...) I decided to go....

Blonde! (for the summer since the sun is gonna bleach my hair this colour anyways :)

Now I'm ready for summer...I even bought a white bikini!
Happy HNT!

My weekend

My weekend consisted mainly of handball. I think I finally hit my handball peak this season (last season I hit it early, this season I was a retard for some reason). My team has also played really well in the last few games andI'm looking forward to our play off season.

A few things:

I got bit by a chick last nite!
I dunno how, but her mouth met my arm when I was playing Defence. What was worse is that whe was wearing lipstick and I had this big mouth kiss mark on my arm. What was even worse than that was that I got a yellow card for that...ugh. I wiped off the lipstick and there was a nice bruise left there for me to admire for the next few days.

And I sprained my finger today...its my ring finger, so no big loss because it is my ring finger and I won't be using that finger for anything anytime soon :)

But, I did realize that you can't do the following with two fingers taped together:
Give the Finger.
Type.
Play the guitar. (Note: I can play A, Am, E and Em though...)
Give 'the shocker' with the left hand (ugh..not that I would be doing that anyways...but I thought of it for some reason...actually my girls would totally know why I thought of that...)

I'm the kinda girl you take home to grandma: Boys don't think I'm great, but watch our for your grandmas! I was the hit of our church tea today! I always clean up nice I guess and if anyone knows ukrainian babas...looks and a healthy weight are popular traits to have. I also like to walk around hugging people and who doesn't love a hug eh? :)

My mom had an 'old person' moment today:

Heather: (on the phone to my brother jordan) "we'll be home in 3 minutes"
H Mom: "More like 5 minutes"
Heather: "Well, if you would go the speed limit we would be home in 3 minutes"
Mom: "I am in speed!"
Heather and Jordan "What?" (laughing)
Heather: "Is that speed the movie or speed the drug?"
Mom: "Just Anything!"
Heather and Jordan: "what?!?"

We still are not sure what she was trying to say...neither does she...lol...

Wish it was summer!

Hahaha..I was looking through my photos and I came upon me being a moron in the summer. (note: me being a moron shouldn't be a shocker to those who know me)

I had used this old bed sheet as a 'rock sling' to move super heavy rocks around my parents yard. I'd wrap the rock in the bed sheet and then drag it to where I wanted it. As a result, their backyard looks nicely landscaped.

Not sure why, but I thought I'd celebrate my accomplishment by making the rock sling a toga and running around the yard...lol poor neighbours...

Oh, just a few more months till summer!

So I haven't had a good piece of meat in a while...

Yeah, yeah...I know its been a while since I've blogged around here....I've been uber busy and then uber sick. A word of wisdom to you all...even if expired yogurt doesn't taste expired...it still is expired so don't eat it.

Enough about that.

So, we had our 4th official SWOK meeting at 529 Wellington and it was FANTASTIC! To any Manitoban readers...if you have not gone to this restaurant, you are totally missing out...it is by far my favorite restaurant.


The founders: Jaimie, Di and myself were of course there with two new SWOKers. Carrie, (the cutie in blue) who is a Wildcat along with the three of us and our first official male SWOK member: Mike.


We probably should have paid for Mike's dinner...considering he had to put up with all our inside jokes and girl stories...he is a friend of Di's and is now our SWOK male informant. We also need to come up with a title for Carrie, so if there are any suggestions...let me know! :)

I had oysters as an appetizer (yum! too bad I was going home by myself though...ahhahahaha), and a beef tenderloin steak for dinner which was delicious! My mom also gave me money to treat the SWOK members to a bottle of wine...and I did just that picking out a very nice bottle of Merlot...so, thanks mom!

So this one will most definetely be a hard one to top...and to top it all off....the awesome hair straightener I bought from Di came in so I'm playing with my hair while bloggin this.

Ugh, and I would love to blog more...but apparently red red wine makes me feel so...ugh...sleepy...and I need to nap on my newly fashioned hair here...

I'll blog more about the random crap that is my life later. Nite!
