i am such a bitch

okay, on top of totally PMSing and doing this stupid cleanse, i had to go to CIBC today. not a good time to go there. i totally hate that bank. seriously, i have never been able to say that the service there is good. it makes me annoyed to even have to go there, but my mom's bank account was there, so there i go.

i went to deposit two cheques made out to the estate which is what the bank account now says too. the parking lot was full, and i only had a dime to put in the meter. that got me 6 mins. i was hoping to not get another parking ticket and get this fun bit of my day done with. instead, i had to wait while both tellers were flirting with their current customers taking waaaaay too long. and then it was my turn and the girl was like: are you irene? i'm like, ummm... no, i'm the executor. so she said: i don't know if you can deposit this here, i think it can only be deposited in the home branch (which is 2 hours drive each way). she comes back some minutes later and says sooooo slowly that it irritates me even more: "oh, i'm sorry, you'll have to..." i totally cut her off there, imagining a ticket because i was 5 minutes late, and told her to hurry. seriously, i was like: hurry, yes, i'm in a hurry. and took the cheques and left. if i'd been able to get a parking spot, i could have been nicer and explained that it's far away and that i'm only depositing. but instead, i will call the hope branch and see what they can do for me. i won't hold my breath though, cause they are just as annoying.

oh, and i almost passed out at the store today. i don't know if it's just the heat or the cleanse, or the combo, but this is probably the third time in less than a week that i've gotten dizzy and then felt it all slip away. i haven't actually hit the floor yet. but it's been a struggle to keep it together.

i'm starting to think that it must be the extreme heat at that store because i had a great meal with ang at sala thai today... i was msning with someone this morning and eventually the conversation became about food and by the time i could eat (half an hour after taking the morning cleanse pills) i only had time for an apple. i've been talking about food a lot lately. and i think this is one of the problems with denying yourself things, you totally obsess about what you can't have. i'm certainly not focused on when my next stir fry is coming along, because i know that'll be tomorrow. instead, i'm thinking about chocolate, pancakes, veggie burgers and now scones with jam and whipped cream (thanks lola). i realise there is a need for moderation, but it's going to be hard to control myself when this cleanse is over. so, i'm going to have to plan my activities for the days after the cleanse carefully. meetings with friends should not revolve exclusively around food and if eating some of the forbidden foods, it should be in combination with good things. for example, my sweet sweet love: toast... moderation and combination, it can't just be toast and butter all week. :oD that would be sweet though... *laugh* just kidding. sort of.

in other news, tomorrow is the building inspection! tomorrow is when i know if i'm taking the place in white rock. i'll take pictures and send them to anyone that wants to see. if the inspection goes well, i will start to plan flooring and painting and such... and what i'm going to do with such a small kitchen. eek! i hope rachel's dad can get a lot done while i'm in tahoe...
