i'll be on the water.

i'm hanging at home today. it is a WHOLE day off, and i get two in a row. i'm really excited about it. tyler and i have a plan to sort through some things later and throw stuff out. haha. should be fun!

i got up this morning shortly after tyler left and decided to finish off the last three episodes of the third season of mad men. they were so good! season 4 is going to be amazing - i'm just bummed i have to wait forever now. in the meantime i am downloading some new shows to watch on my own so i don't get bored. deadwood is looking really promising. i hear its really good.

tyler and i have officially decided that we're moving. in fact, he told our landlords today. march 1st we will be out of here and into a place that has, at the very least, an oven. WOO! haha. i have put up with this for quite long enough. our fridge is leaking, and has been for a few months now. they have done nothing. there was even a FREE fridge on the side of the road just up the road from us. still nothing. tyler asked them about it, and they said they haven't even looked for something. its frustrating. and then yesterday our toilet started to leak, and not just a little. A LOT. tyler says the wax seal is broken or something? he got the stuff, and is going to fix it himself because he is handy and can do that kind of thing. he told our landlords that he's going to fix it. apparently the guy was pretty choked when tyler told him we were leaving. tyler told him that we wanted an oven and laundry, and that they still hadn't done anything about the fridge and we were frustrated. so that's that, i suppose. tyler's sister's boyfriend has a place that he just renovated that he said he will rent to us if we can't find a place before the end of february. so at least we don't have the stress of HAVING to find something, and we won't get forced into something awful because we run out of time.

its hard. i don't want to live in someone's basement after living in a whole house by ourselves. it really sucks that we can't afford to just buy a house now. we want to find a place to rent that we can spend the next couple of years in, until we are ready to buy. i feel confident that we can find a better place. considering all the issues here, i really don't think it will be hard. but i feel confident that we can find a place that we will be comfortable and happy in. and it will give us a chance to go through our stuff TOGETHER and get rid of stuff (tyler keeps some of the weirdest stuff... and i'm sure he thinks some of the stuff i have kept is useless too). at least i also don't have to worry about super cleaning the place! especially considering i have kept it cleaner than when we moved in anyway. they should give us double the damage deposit we gave them considering the shape it was in when we moved in. agh. frustrating. NEVER AGAIN!

and after the reaction i got last time i told you all about something tyler did... i'm going to tell this story. its really quite funny, i think. on sunday night i had a dream. its was kind of a common themed dream for me, but they always freak me out. i was being followed by a really creepy guy, who i knew was eventually going to get me. i woke up with my heart racing, and scared. told tyler i had a bad dream, and he asked if i was okay. i said yes. tried to get comfortable again, but i had to pee. BUT, because of my dream, my imagination prevented me from getting up to go to the washroom. i told tyler, and he simply responded by asking me if i wanted him to get up with me. haha. so he got up and walked with me to the washroom. he said it was okay, he had to go too. it blew me away. STILL does. haha. i can't think of anyone else who would ever have done something like that for me. it was very sweet.

anyway... that's all. i'm gonna go back to downloading shows to watch, and cleaning the house.
