Rachel Getting Married

So, I just finished watching Rachel Getting Married. I remember going to the Toronto Film Festival went this came out and everyone talking about how great Anne Hathaway is in it. And she is really good, but I'm not sure about the movie as a whole. I just found it very odd. I think it was all the musicians everywhere. I don't know why this kept taking me out of the story, but it did. I found it very distracting.

Music Memories

'I Will Follow Him' just showed up on my ipod. Wow, I'm back to sitting on the dining room floor in Goderich with my mom and dad's record collection. How I loved their record collection - the album covers, the songs, the smell of the records, dancing around the dining room - all of it. I still have them all and every so often I pull them out and I'm right back to my childhood.

Stupid Canadian Government

So, I needed to send some receipts back to revenue canada. Unfortunately, when I tried to get a copy of my receipts the company never sent them to me. So, that wasted time. Once I had them I mailed them off. Then I received a letter a month later saying I never responded! WTH? Stupid Canada Post screws me again. Then I called and the nice woman there gave me a number and fax to call. Well, the number was busy for over an hour so I gave up. I tried to fax, the fax machine tried for who knows how long and it was busy. So, I figured I mail the receipts again (getting a signature this time), no there is no address ANYWHERE! What does it say on their website? It says use the address label we gave you. I DID on the first one, it didn't get there. So, now I have no way to get my receipts to them and they say I owe money. Stupid fraking crappy Canadian government.

Battle of the Blades live

Last week I went to a taping of battle of the blades with my cousin Michelle, her husband Andrew and my friend Julia. It was so cool to be back at Maple Leaf Gardens (surprised by how many seats are still there). The show was actually live for the east coast. I think the judges were watching different routines than we were. Domi hardly skated, it was so boring; Lemieux was rarely in time with his partner. But Stephane was awesome and Craig and Jamie are far and away the best couple. We actually stuck around after to get their autographs.

It was such a fun night, except for when I got hit in the face. Yes, I went to a figure skating competition and ended up with a fat lip. Someone was flinging their hands around and smacked me in the face. It took about 4 days for my lip to heal.

Tickets are really cheap and they have a rush line as well. Go if you get the chance. It was so much fun!!

Stupid App

Once again I'm having problems with my iphone. I have an app that "allows" me to blog from my phone. I think it worked once. I have a couple of blogs but here's the message I get when I try to post "seems your network is not ready for posting". Very annoying.
