OOOHHH!!!! I can shoot a gun now!

So as of today I am qualified to shoot a Smith and Wesson Model 10 38 Special Revolver!!! WAHHOOOOO!
See example pic 1:



As of Monday I'm hoping to be (I mean I will be ;)) qualified to shoot a 9mm Carbine AR 15. IT IS SOOOO AWESOME!! It's like a real live ERT gun! (aka SWAT in the US and on TV).
See example pic 2:



I feel so growed up! And it is a really awesome feeling being out there.. very humbling! Just so you all know, that's where I've been and where I will be for the next while (on the Range and super intense training).. so don't think I've forgotten about you!

What a Special Day!!!

Happy Birthday to; April, Jen D (formerly Jen R), and Erin!!! Also, to Happy Anniversary to Jim and Lonnie (Ry's mom and step dad)!

I'm sure I've missed some b/c I know a few other people I've met over the years have birthdays etc on this day. But there must be something about this day that is special!
I have a ton of reading to do for FIREARMS tomorrow!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! I am so excited.. 38mm tomorrow.. so this will be short...
I just wanted to wish a happy *insert occassion*-Day to all those people, and those I didn't mention.
Also.. Karyn you rock! I miss you girl and we will do Mexico! I don't know when I'll be able to get time off.. but we will do it! Maybe next year? Although I'll be in TO next year so I'll be coming to see you anyways! *assuming I can get time off!!!*

Have a great one all.. hope you've been enjoying the sun for me!

Woohooo!

So I really hope everyone had a great Easter.. mine was great.. I WORKED! lol.. stupid ol' Reitmans.. I can't wait to be done my training and working a "real" job!!! :D Just one step closer to policing I say!!!
Anyhoo.. next week is FIREARMS!!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!

Not much else is going on.. playing some slo-pitch.. teams seems really cool so far.. found them on a message board! :) Hehehe.. they called me internet Jen! :P Nice eh? Funny since I'm almost never online anymore!

On a more serious note.. I don't know why, but I think I'm a decent friend. Ya.. I'm human and I make mistakes.. okay.. no worries.. I've grown a lot and if I've made a mistake I try to own up to it so it can be fixed and things can move on. Now.. the only thing is.. I don't sit there and say.. "I'm sorry I'm a horrible person and I did everything wrong" or let people walk all over me. I try and own up to stuff that I do, so if I feel like I've been treated like crap, or unfairly, or that something that I've had said/done is being taken incorrectly, I will say something or try and clear things up.
I guess it's just that I find it upsetting that there are people who take tons and tons of crap from other people.. but won't even have the decency to step up and say.. hey.. I'm sorry we're at this impass.. what can we do to make things right? Am I really that crappy of a friend??
It's just unfortunate that if someone doesn't think that my friendship is worth that much.. why didn't they say something in the first place?
So I guess what it comes down to is this...
If any of you, my friends, see anything that I've done, or am doing, or there is something I have said to you, that upsets you, and that you feel like I'm treating you like crap... please TELL me!
I would rather have you be upfront and honest with me than to just cast me aside like I'm junk.
I will have the same respect for you and our friendship as well... deal?!?

Friday, April 07, 2006

Wow.. I've been MIA for a bit...

Just before I say anything.. please pray for my Jen and her grandpa, and her family. He is in the hospital so any thoughts and prayers are welcome... he is a strong man but in times like this it's nice to have extra strength. Also, for Jen it's not the easiest time as she lives away from home.. I know how difficult that can be, especially because she is so close to him.. so my thoughts and prayers are with you hun... I love you!

Anyhoo.. I don't have a ton of time because I'm getting ready to head to class. BLECH! LOL! It's not so bad.. I've almost completed my first week of training for Correction Services Canada.. WOOOH! Good times.. if you want to know more perhaps I will post more when I have more time... if not I will just post more when I have more to post :P

Before that I went for a trip to Kamloops.. good times.. it was a bit stress filled, but things worked out. I wish I had the energy to stay longer b/c it sure would have been nice to have seen Kari for our Sushi date! luckily I got to see many people.. lots of my family.. visited tons with my grams.. got to see Jen and Liz/J/H :) Beaning is good times.. although Justin is quite the Crotch Pile Bugger so you definately have to watch him!!!!

Okay.. well I really have to get a move on so I will try and talk at you all more soon!

My arm feels better.. still not 100% >:( Grrr!!!

So I had killer allergies yesterday. Wasn't too bad for most of the day, but lastnight I was trying to rest and dozed off and woke myself up sneezing! Anyhoo.. so I took an allergy pill. UGH! I HATE taking those b/c they knock me out.. however being bed time I figured it was no big deal.
Of course I could NOT wake up this morning! However, while I was waiting for the bus this morning, I cooked steaks, a ham, turkey burgers, and cut up a bunch of veggies for snacking! I felt so productive! I worked tonight and tomorrow so I thought I'd get stuff ready for me and Ry to eat.
Anyhoo.. I tried this burger recipe out of my SHAPE magazine. Really tasty! I hope you enjoy it if you try it!

ASIAN CHICKEN BURGERS with WASABI KETCHUP
(serves 4, approx prep/cooking time 22 min)

1 pound ground chicken or turkey breast
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (I didn't have any so I just used chives)
2 cloves fresh garlic minced
1 tsp reduced sodium soy sauce (for my high blood pressure *hehehe*)
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

4 tbsp ketchup
1 tsp wasabi paste
4 whole wheat rolls
*I HATE wasabi so I just used Franks Red Hot and Cayenne Pepper

1. In large bowl, combine first 7 ingredients well. Shape miture into 4 patties, each about 1 inch thick.
2. Coat a large grill pan or griddle with cooking spray and set pan over a med. heat *all I did was take my reg. oil and spread it over the pan with a paper towel before heating
3. When pan is hot, add burgers and cook 5-6 min. per side until cooked through. *B/c mine took a bit longer I just lowered the heat and flipped for about 10 min. extra. Next time I would try and make them a bit thinner to cut time. They were still really good, but much smaller than the bun. Nice thing is that you know what size they will be b/c they don't shrink down b/c the meat is so lean!
4. Meanwhile, mix ketchup and wasabi paste well in small bowl, place burgers on bun and top with ketcup mixture.
NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION:
(1 burger and 1 tbsp wasabi ketchup)
261 calories, 31% fat (9g; 2.3g saturated), 41% carbs (27 gr), 28% protein (18g), 4 gr fiber, 57 mg calcium, 1.4 mg iron, 792 mg sodium.



I was a bit skeptical b/c of the lack of topping but the patties are so packed with flavour you don't need extras. In the mag. they added sliced red onion on top.. meh!

They also had this cool creamy relish recipe for beef burgers

CREAMY RELISH
Combine 1/4 c. plain non fat yogurt with 1/4 c. pickle relish.
(per tbsp, 18 cal. 0 fat)

There are a couple of other neat recipes but we'll see how they work out. I just love burgers and I love that these ones are tasty, filling, and not that bad for you, yet satisfy that want :)

Let me know if you try them!

OMG! My arm Weeeally Hurts!

OMG! I can't believe it! I won! I WON!!! I WON A FREE COFFEE!!! Roll up the rim is my HERO! *swoons* I'm so happy! LMAO!

I had my medical today.. and since you get them in Gr. 9 (and that's more than 10 years ago..) I had to have a tetnus shot >:(
So I had to go to Vancouver for the joyous occassion and on the way down Inder and I got rear ended at a light! No biggie b/c she really just hit our wheel compartment and it's just scratched. Ry's a mofo though and even though I told him.. am I covered by insurance? if not add me.. asshole never added me! pfft.. we'll see what happens. And when I called him to tell him he says, "You must have stopped too suddenly!" HAH! Ya, NO! I was stopped for at least 30 seconds before dumb ass hit me!

Anyhoo.. so my blood pressure was a bit elevated! lol! Then they were going to retest me and it just went up as I waited to get retested! lol.. stupid bp!

After I finished the sight and hearing tests (and shot) with the nurse, the doc comes in.. she's this little tiny asian lady.. so no nonsense.. gave me crap for not having a family doc! lol.. anyhoo.. my stupid thyroid is inflamed! so I tell her I had hypothyroidism but haven't been tested in ages.. LOL! So who knows what'll happen. I think it'll be fine, but I have to get re-tested, she wants me to have an ultrasound, but she's waiting til she gets the blood work to decide. Anyhoo.. it'd be nice to not be tired all the time! lol..

So that's what happened. It actually wasn't too far from Robson, so we went there, got a new shirt, navy still pants, and NO JET JACKET! She said they didn't have many left and sent them off to the outlet store. They probably don't have any left... so whatever.. no jet jacket for me.. I'll survive I'm sure. Then I got this cute scoop neck 3/4 sleeve turquoise top at Dynamite... I'm stoked b/c it looks hot :)

Now I'm getting ready for my big trip to Kamloops! OoOOH!!! Jen and I are going to try and grab coffee, then we're going to do b-day lunch with her mommy! YAY! It's going to be like wedding prep all over again! It was so much fun bumming around with them.. nails, costco, grocery people, the ranch.. too bad Erin won't be there :S I have to say that time before the wedding was really great. Yeah I had to take a week off school and miss a bunch of classes, but I made up for it, and I got to spend time helping out my friend during a really stressful/exciting/fun period of her life. I wouldn't trade that time for anything because I know she really needed me and I am just glad that I could be there for her as much as I could. It was difficult not being able to help her out during the earlier wedding prep.. so I was just happy I could be there then. Plus I got to spend time with her gramma and mom who I love dearly as I've known them FOREVER!!! (and they're amazing ladies)! Plus, how much help are guys really? LOL! They just want to make the women happy and go along with what they think will accomplish that! *hehe sorry Brent :P*

So ya.. it'll be great to see the ladies in K-town and I'm just happy we'll be there at the same time! YIPPEEE!!

Plus I get to see my family who I haven't seen in AGES!! Since the wedding.. and I didn't see them a whole lot since I was helping out Jen.. but they knew that was the deal so whatever. And I get to see my Kari-bear! I miss her tons.. and I only wish I had been able to be there for her this last while during such and incredibly difficult period in her life. :( But I'll be there soon baby! And we can do Denny's!!! WHOOOOOOOOOT!!!
Then Kathie and I are going to try and grab lunch.. jeez I haven't seen her since I moved and I want to see her rock! :P
Then there is that DeVries Family! EEEP! *squishes them* I love those guys and can't WAIT to see them! Hunter has gotten so big since I saw him last!

It's going to be a super busy trip... but if there is anyone out there who would like to grab a coffee or something let me know!

YAY KAMLOOPS!!!

Ooooh.. What a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!! (too bad I had to work)

Anyhoo.. I didn't mind a whole lot that I had to work, because I could see the outside, the nice weather made it fairly slow at work, and I HAVE TOMORROW OFF!! WOOHOOO!
Tomorrow should be an alright day.. I have a medical tomorrow... I've never had one so I'm not really sure what to expect. I hope I pass b/c if I don't no corrections! EEP! I wish there was something I could study!
Since I'm going into Van and it's only for an hour, my friend Inder is coming with me and we're going to stop in at Lulu! (and other choice stores on Robson) Wahhooooo! it's going to be great.
I think everyone knows how much I loved Tuesdays with Morrie.. OMG! I bought the Five People you Will Meet in Heaven tonight while we were grocery shopping. It was only $11.99! I can't wait to read it! If only I wasn't so sleepy..
plus Greys Anatomy is on and I just LOOOOOOOOVEEE this show.
I really wish that damn super bowl hadn't gotten me all hooked on it! I guess it's not that bad though.. b/c I'm usually watching Desperate Housewives before it.. so no worries! :)
WAAAAAAAHHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Back to TV..
Hehehe

Stupid Roll up the Rim! *grrr*

So things are good.. been working a ton. Pretty tired, which I wouldn't really be.. if I wasn't so fed up with my silly job! It's funny how selfish I find some of the people that come in who get upset that we don't have a shirt in their size.. well at least they can afford to buy that shirt! You know?
Anyhoo.. that's my Reitmans rant for the day.
Here's hoping I kick ass with Corrections *crosses fingers*
I can't believe how time is flying by! Phew! It's crazy crazy how it's almost freakin April!
What's exciting though is that this time next week I'll be on my way to Kamloops!!! YAY! I get to spend some time with my family, friends, and Jen D. is coming to town then too!!! So I get to see her some too!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Was going to go to yoga lastnight.. but I got called out to a sexual assault and didn't get home til around 9! eep!
Now I had this really profound post that I wanted to post.. but I don't feel like it now! LOL! It will come though b/c it's definately a needed post.
And just so you know.. my new fave snack is frozen cantelope! I love frozen grapes, but the other day I bought a cantelope and it was good, but a bit over ripe. So then I thought.. hmmm.. I'll pop it in the freezer.
Oh my goodness! It was so tasty! I love it! Just for the record I hope you guys try it!

Going to Pavarotti!!!

Okay.. the other night Ry and I were chilling after getting home from work, watching the news.. and this ad comes on. Pavarotti is doing a farewell tour.. and he's coming to Vancouver. I thought that was cool, but didn't say anything. Then Ry pipes up... "OOH! I wouldn't mind going to see that.. you want to go? Look online and see how much tickets are!"
OMG! So after I revived from having my bf suggest we go to see an opera singer.. albeit a major one, I checked.. tix went on sale today.. and we're going! We only got cheap seats because the good ones were $350/person! EEP! So we got cheap ones b/c they're still decent and it's Pavarotti.. no matter where you sit it will be amazing!
*sigh*
Ry surprises me sometimes. I sure do love that guy :)
*happy dance*

Truth

The truth is a funny thing...

People are constantly searching for it.
We all long for truth in our relationships and aspire to live by the truth.

But what is the truth?
Is it what you believe to be true? What if what you believe contradicts what 5 other people say is the truth? Who do you believe? Yourself? Or do you acknowledge what the others are saying and question whether your memory is skewed?

I believe that the truth is something we may never know. Whatever happens, details will fade, our past experiences will obscure how we view what is going on and perhaps make it impossible for us to really see the truth of what is happening right before us.

For me, the only things I know are true are my feelings. Not just every day feelings.. but the ones that I sit there and question and test their validity.. because if there is one person I know can't ever lie to me.. it's myself! I know how I feel about people and events... my feelings are true.

I feel that the only way to know truth is to be open to the possibility that you might not know it.. to take into consideration what others are saying and test your feelings and memories.. because truth will stand the test.. if it is in fact the truth.

Poor Nalla Pug :(

Our puggy is always itchy... she's seen 3 different vets over the past few months.. and they found no signs of anything and diagnosed her as having allergies. She takes her itchy pills and she's good.. except for the last few weeks poor pug wakes up and is itchy all over... rubbing her nose in us! So I went to brush her tonight.. UGH! OUR PUG HAS FLEAS!!!
*sigh*
So now I have to take her to the vet tomorrow, and get meds, shampoo, whatever, for her and kitty! Then I have to decontaminate our house!! *grumbles*
Oh well.. the joys of being a pet owner!
*lol*

Hooohooo! Don't mess with Mother Nature.. she'll GET YA!

So, I think one of the most ironic things that has happened in the last while is that Ry and I noticed the gardeners mowed our lawn for the first time this year! Then.. it snowed! LOL! I love how when people think that winter is over.. Mother Nature says.. NOPE! I'll show you what's what! :)
Anyhoo.. at least the snow didn't last and wasn't more than just a nuisance... I love snow, but there is a time and a place.
So this week was alright.. nothing too out of the ordinary. Thursday morning I woke up, after a good 8 hours or so of sleep, and felt soooooooooo sleepy. I thought maybe it was because I was having one of those mornings when I kept dreaming in between the snooze button. However, as the day wore on my fatigue just kept getting worse. I thought it was rather strange.. not even caffeine could get me out of my fog. Then I thought it was just because my iron is at a low point and wrote it off. Then Friday after work I was waiting for Ry and found it difficult to swallow, sneezing, runny nose.. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
So for the last two days I've been plagued by a cold. Albeit not a massive full blown cold.. but one of those annoying colds that keeps you nice and tired, makes it tough to swallow, and just plugs your nose enough to hurt and to keep you breathing out of your mouth which irritates your throat. Sometimes I'm not sure what's worse. I think, depending on how long this half assed cold hangs on, it is almost better to have a day or two where you're so sick all you do is sleep and drink fluids and rest. So today I treated myself like that.. I laid in bed with Ry, drank juice, popped my vitamins, watched some Gone with the Wind.. then went and stood out in the rain directing parking at a church function as a citizen's patrol rep. LOL! Go figure..
Oh well.. what can I say.. I'm a geek!
The Olympics closing ceremony was awesome! But holy! Ricky Martin?!?? OMG! LOL! Liz remember our night of frisbee at my place on Jasper? We danced and sang to Ricky *hangs head in shame* LMAO! Wow.. that seems like years ago. My life has changed so much.. I still like having a good time.. but I can't believe how things change in a matter of a few years.. Liz is a mommy and a wife.. I'm living in a different city pursuing a career in law enforcement, hardly ever drink ever, live with the most amazing man.... so different yet the same. Growed up I suppose :)
My dad, step mom and step sis were here this weekend. We did a bit of shopping, I got a gorgeous black dressy trench coat from work with my b-day money (saving the rest for lulu!!!), and we went to Brokeback Mountain. Hmmm.. I can't say I loved it and rave about it. It was okay, long, makes you think, great acting for sure! I'd say see it because it is so thought provoking.. but I dunno.. I've definately seen much better movies... but it was good. Plus Heath and Jake are hot no matter what or who they are doing! *heheh*
Anyhoo.. that's about it.. lol.. boring I know.. but if you want to know more boring stuff.. email me or call me.. OMG! IT IS ALMOST MY BIRTHDAY!!!!
and I have no plans.. for the first time in years! lol.. wow.. I really don't care I suppose!
LOL!
Toodles.. :)

Happy Day After Valentine's Day!

So yesterday was nice.. kept busy during the day b/c Ry was at work.. made him a card with pug pics and construction paper :) When he came home he gave me a beautiful bunch of tulips and some chocolates. Then we relaxed for a bit and headed out for dinner.. to the Boathouse in White Rock! It was great :) They had a special menu and I had wild greens salad, lobster/crab cake, Steak topped with Lobster thermidor stuff, and key lime pie (to go :P) It was amazing! Ry had this shrimp that was amazing.. it was spicy pan fried or something.. I dunno but it was flippin hot and tastey! Ry also ordered a bottle of Red wine.. which I drank most of (b/c he was driving) so when we got home I was a bit tippy! lol.. it was funny.. geez I NEVER drink anymore and now it's been twice in less than a week! lol.. maybe I need to take a break now :)
Anyhoo.. I hope everyone enjoyed their day/night.. whether they were with loved one, friends, or just chilling by themselves!

Trying to upload pics.. but they're not working.. I'll try later!

And just for fun...

LOL!
