My Finest Hour!

"oh, we are who we are, whatever the others say"

Ok, so I had planned to start and finish "my finest hour about a year ago"
Basically it was to feature all of my super good friends, in their "finest hour"
Well, obviously I failed miserably since, I think, I only featured one friend, Amanda.

Let me say, I mean "Finest Hour" sarcastically. So I will continue, to embarass my friends, a year later.

Let me present Haley, in HER "My Finest Hour."

Let's clear the record here, I LOVE HALEY! She has been my bff since hmm, I was about 16 years old. Sheesh, Haley, that's a super long time! She is sweet, funny as hell, the best listener, GORGEOUS AS FUCK, creative, and just a ton of wicked.
Here she is.

I have added a feature, a song that makes me think of them, and although there are quite a few that I could present at this time, I won't cause it's a little tough for me. So after really thinking about it, I came up with this song...

Free - the Martinis




Ya, s he's a dick, a nd makes t shirts with her face on them! pashaw!



She pokes Moose in the ass. Gross!


I tried to sell her once, on teh community board. FAIL, cause I was askin too much!



I wasn't askin much, sheesh!


She runs like a friggin champ!


She takes a ferry and noone wants to go with her! (cept me, obvioiusly)


She wears her underwear on the outside


Uh and then theres that time!!!!


Cute face? :)


A face only I could love???? naw!



She's kinda like Robin Hood, but hot!


Alright, well here's the real "Hales Hales tough as Nails!"



Drop-Dead_Mutha-Fuckin-Gorgeous, Folks. My BFF, Haley!

OH P.S, did I forget to mention this part?

DISCLAIMER: Once you click on this blog, you have signed your soul away, and therefore, your nasty, awesome, not so flattering pictures away. (hee hee) The people featured on "My finest hour" are my favourite peeps ever, they rock my world, I think they are attractive, funny, awesome friends, have great SENSE OF HUMOURS, and are the best people ever. SO THERE. That means they can't get pissed at me for posting, weird, gross, nasty, fucked, bad, horrible, skanky, disgusting pictures of them. HA!

Oh, Ps again, I'm sorry Haley, I really do love you, that's why I also posted some super cute pics of you. Just so peeps wouldn't think you were a total freak. HA!


STAY TUNED: For the next "Finest Hour" Featuring "Ceremony - the Kate Suppa Story", t his will take longer to create, since a ton of her finest hours are still on as I like to call them "physical pictures".

Banff, Bitches!

I went to Banff on Saturday with Nick, my aunt and her friend. The weather was perfect and the sky couldn't be a brighter shade of blue. Here are some pictures, taken with my iphone camera, I have to say, it takes pretty fantastic pictures!











UGH!
So I haven't updated in ages! Well not ages but a while.
It always goes like this:

Erin: "I'm totally going to blog more often" (saying this to myself of course)
Reality: I stop blogging because my life is pretty boring and I don't have much to share.

BUT this time folks, I do.

Since my last update, I got a job. Here's the details in point form.

Positive stuff:
  • I work for a company that used to be part of an oil and gas company but broke off, created a new company that went into the chemical manufacturing business.
  • I can walk to work (and do) in 22 minutes
  • The office has approx 90 people
  • I make exactly $10,000/year MORE than I did at this time last year
  • I have killer benefits and investment opportunities
  • Everyone seems really nice
  • Laid back office environment
  • I managed to negotiate 2 days off during my first month of work
  • I will now have the money to have an amazing summer and hopefully leave the country before 2010, need to get a passport first though
  • I have something to do with my time....I guess!
The negatives, which aren't really all that negative:

  • I do the exact same thing I did 6 years ago, which is kind of a step back, but financially it's a step up so that's all that matters to me at this point
  • I am, once again probably the youngest person in the office, which means no friendship opportunities, (a girl needs friends, people!)
  • I will be working during the summer (I was wishing to be off for the summer, cause I haven't had a summer off since I was 16
  • I have to wake up at 6:15, to be at work for 8:00am, and I don't get off til 5:00pm

I'm ugly and I don't know why!

I was walking home from school one day,
when I saw Danny, standing there,
I tried to show him, my dirty underwear,
he showed me his, but nothing could compare,
then he said "you're ugly, what the fuck gave birth to you",
you're ugly, and I bet your mom is too,
you're ugly, man what's with that doo,
you're ugly, because, you're ugly!

This song just popped into my head, it's from way back in my Hike-School days, as I was pouring my coffee with soy chocolate milk.

Ya, I know, sounds douchy, kind of like ordering at Starbucks, but that's all I have right now in the form of dairy or dairy wanna be products and I AIN'T going out lookin like this. Normally I don't care what I look like if I just need to run out quickly and get something from the store. But today, that's just my excuse for being lazy. Cause in reality, my hair looks fantastic and I haven't even brushed it yet.

On another note, I am waiting to potentially get a job offer either tomorrow or Monday, which I guess good cause it's a job, but I have a really friggin wicked interview with a science organization within the University of Calgary. The job sounds great, exciting, challenging, loads of responsibilities and I would have 4-6 people working under me. ooo lala, bitches!

All I want for Christmas is......THIS!

As all of my friends know, I am a huge fan of everything retro! Which is why I am so excited about this grill I found on anthropologie.com. It is the most fantastic thing I have seen in a long time. Although I have a wicked, full size bbq already, I can't help but want this one just cause it's the shit, you hear me, it is the cats freakin meow.

Hmm, I wonder if any of my friends are in need of a tabletop bbq? I could buy it for them and be forever jelous, but hey, at least someone I know could have it, and love it forever and ever, Amen.



Here are the deets:
Retromodern Mini Grill
Perfectly proportioned for small parties on small patios, this futuristic throwback charms with a fresh green color scheme and just enough room for a few briquettes and a pair of patties.
Stainless steel
Hand wash
15.75"H, 12" diameter
Imported
style #973261

CAD112.32

Uh, OOPS?

Ya, so I haven't blogged in a while. I have nothing to say, no funny clips to share, I'm just one big ball of blah lately. I have no job, no job offers, nothing to look forward to or get me excited about life right now.

You know when your life is going really well, and you're accomplishing goals and setting new ones and really looking forward to the years to come? Ya well I lost all of that, it kinda fell apart when I got laid off in Feb. I have been set back, and it's been a struggle to keep a smile on my face and joy in my voice.

I've never been unemployed, since I started working 10 years ago, NEVER, not even for a week, and quite frankly I don't know what the fuck to do with myself. I know this all sounds really dramatic, but it's how I feel.

My boyfriend keeps talking about moving back to Toronto, and it sounds like a good idea sometimes, cause at least I would have my friends there to keep me company. I'd feel like I was quitting though. (Also, I want to move to Vancouver next, city with the ocean, fuck ya) Ok, I just thought of a funny video I could post, you know, to make up for my fucking complaining. Sorry.

Ya, I know it's offensive and I'm an immature loser for finding it funny, but I can't help it.
