Facking Christmas

So it's less than a month now.  Good Christ.
All my pleas to please just donate to a charity don't work: people want to buy me things, but they don't know what to buy me and so Christmas has now essentially morphed into a giant gift card exchange.
I don't care!  Here: I will give you a $50 gift card for the GAP and in return you give me a $50 gift card for Winners!  Yay!  It's personal and intimate and god knows I love shopping.
Just bloody give a donation to charity in my name.
In other news, am considering other career moves.  I would like to be a dog walker.  You laugh, but I'm not kidding.  I'm not allowed to have a dog here (not that I'd have a dog in an apartment) and I love dogs and I love being outdoors and I hate people.  Um, perfect fit?  Must investigate further.
Went downtown today for an interview with a headhunter.  I haven't been downtown in ages.  It was fun.  I miss taking transit.  My commute makes me want to shoot my fellow commuters in the face.
In other news, the below video was the coolest thing that happened all weekend.  Oh, except for winning a bottle of Baileys at Michael's Christmas party.
Who has tons of random items in their purse (cough: courier style backpack from MEC)?  This girl does.

  1. Xmas does indeed blow. What's your charity of choice? Dogwalker eh? Wouldn't that suck with Vancouver weather? How about secretary??

    1. Charity of choice? Duder's early retirement fund. I keep it in a jar. Then I empty the jar out and go buy wine.
      I'm going to have to walk dogs until I'm 90.

    2. I like your style Duder. You can always buy a lot of boxed wine, and then drink it out of the jar for that "I'm drinking charity wine" feeling.....

  2. Dog walking would be fun - and you know that they will always be happy to see you and enjoy the hell out of just being in your company and getting out of the house.

    I know there are lots of people with dogs in my building (my favourite is a HUGE poodle cross that likes to bark at my shoes and lick my mail if he sees me in the lobby. He's awesome.)

    1. LOL. What exactly are you getting in the mail, Renee?

  3. I saw that gorilla! My sister finances her Vegas trip every year by pet sitting. She drinks a lot of wine too.

    1. Those three sentences look very strange together, taken out of context.
      I must say I financed a lot of stuff in the coat check on Friday.
      What what?

  4. LOL, looking at the time I posted that, I can't claim to have been drunk. I guess living up North where people have to wear coats can be beneficial. Hell, no one down here even knows what a coat check is... If I use that term they'd think it was someone putting a giant check mark on your coat.
