update: for more hockey pics, go visit cam or mel or both...
so yesterday was hockey day. we played for 3 hours. so much fun. we made a few friends... 2 nine-year olds and a little guy (maybe 4 or 5). the little dude was more my speed... he had no skates and a tiny plastic stick. perfect for me to play with. he told me that i was a very nice girl. and then he said "chrissy... bring it on!!" 
and this is my new hair. what do ya think? huh? huh?
just in case anyone misunderstood... d is great! the other night he listened to me get some things off my mind and even rubbed my back while i cried. we talked a lot (like always) and made some life decisions. he was worried that what i said about him in the last post made it sound like he made me cry. au contraire...
ps
it's take care of chrissy day. new hair is on the way!!
i totally had a story to tell but i didn't write it down and i took too long to get on the computer today so the moral of the story is: DO IT NOW!!
i have many many rants going on in my head lately. it is february you know. that cozy time of year when i lose myself in myself. this is when i tend to be sad a lot and not really want to do much of anything or talk to much of anybody. this all came to my attention about 4 years ago. technically, it's called seasonal affective disorder. i don't really think i have the actual illness, but it sounds fancy. i'm really trying very hard to not slip into it this year. and thanks to global warming, this winter hasn't really been like winter at all. that is making it easy to stay chrissy. i also have d, who listened to me cry and cry last night and even encouraged me to cry some more... to get it out. mike asked me yesterday how i deal so well with what i do at work, what i see and what i hear, actually having a face to put with a horrible story. i guess this is how i deal... if it didn't affect me, i would have to be a robot. but if it gets to me too often, then i can't be of any help to these kids. it has to seem like it doesn't affect me so they don't feel like freaks. so every february, i lose some of the wall. and in doing that, my own life starts to get to me too.
so... that's what's going on. i'll be fine. i'm actually feeling great today.

hi there. my name is chrissy. i write most of the posts on this blog. i used to use pink as a font color, but i got bored of that and switched to purple. darren, who also posts on the seedy life, types in grey. he doesn't write very much. i think that in the 14 months that we have had this blog, he has posted maybe 10 times.
it became apparent that our faithful readers were having a tough time telling my purple from darren's grey. that is why the switch to green. i don't know which shade of green looks best yet though. so... sorry for the confusion.
the dude downstairs seriously needs to turn his shit down!! i went down there the other day cuz i felt bad about thumping on the floor and he was all nice and sorry. i asked him if he had like a giant kick ass tv and he was like "yeah, got a whole home theatre system." DUDE, YOU LIVE IN AN APARTMENT!! WE CAN FEEL YOUR FABULOUS HOME THEATRE SYSTEM THROUGH OUR FLOOR!! AND GET BETTER TASTE IN MUSIC!!
update: 4:31pm
now i think he's learning to play bass... plugged in!!!! AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGG!!
things i learned recently by chrissy boone

~ kids lie because they don't know how else to deal
~ i am tired of using song titles for blog post titles
~ saturday night live is funny-ish again
~ i am a report writing machine
~ people have a tough time telling purple from grey
~ a room full of chicks learning stripper moves is very fun
what have you learned lately?
*** warning... i may overuse the word "finesse" in this post***
i was at the oilers game tonight. the good ol' hockey game my ass!! i can't even imagine how frustrating it is to be a player having to abide by these new "finesse" rules. as a fan though, i can tell you that i am thoroughly pissed off!
delay of game. let's start there. never in my entire life of hockey fandom have i ever been one to yell at a ref. in fact, i used to watch hockey in another room because it was so annoying to listen to my dad do it during a televised game. tonight, i couldn't help it. pucks get deflected. now we call a penalty each and every time this happens? i call delay of game on the ref for calling it a penalty, having to escort a spiteful player to the box who is complaining all the way because he was called for delay of game. you couldn't just blow the whistle and have a face off?
next, we have the issue of fighting on the ice. "what fighting?" you ask? my point exactly! as soon as any player makes any sort of motion that could imply "i'm about to be unfinesse." there are linesmen and refs all over him. tonight, poor laraque. i hardly noticed him. why? not much ice time when the enforcer isn't allowed near anyone. i remember when i discovered that there was this unwritten rule that gretzky was untouchable. "check him, but do it gently. he's a finesse player, you know." i was so mad. that's not hockey. and now the whole game is like that.
just so we're clear... i'm still a hockey fan. there's no denying that i saw a great game tonight. but this isn't the same nhl i grew up living and breathing and loving.

we took jen her couch. mike helped and since she is mad at him she played all "sick" and complained about how she has nothing to eat and it's his fault. then she text messaged him that they aren't friends anymore. WE ARE NOT PRESSURING YOU TO PAY US BACK. STOP BLAMING OTHER PEOPLE. GET A JOB CLOSER TO YOUR HOUSE SO YOU CAN'T USE THE EXCUSE THAT IT'S TOO FAR TO GO TO WORK. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO START OVER. DO IT! that's what i wanted to yelltalk to her. but i didn't. i don't think i said anything actually.
i = tired of a lot of things
ps
thanx for the couch auntie p & c-unit (you know who you are)
blah blah blah. goals for 2006. blah blah blah. well, i don't want to be left out. you know how much i hate being left out. but instead of your boring-old-same-as-every-other-year resolutions, i've got some "notes to self". they are like this:
* i like sleeping in
* plants like when you talk to them
* write stuff down
* keep taking too many pictures
* clean clothes are easier to find when you put away the laundry as soon as it is done
* bake some things
* 2 out of 4 closets are full of crap
* splurging once in 5 years in ok
and that's all i got. of course the whole japan thing fits in there, but that's common knowledge. as is the gym thing and the finacially stable thing, etc. etc.

we drove scott and candice back to calgary on monday. they are great. my family already loves scott, and now they love candice. i believe what was said was "scott has himself a very sweet girl."
cam found the pickle and got himself a glass snakes and ladders drinking game and a box of every flavor harry potter jelly beans that he graciously shared. 
people were running for the garbage after eating sardine, rotten egg, ear wax, and vomit flavored jelly beans. the video of it is damn funny.
we decorated a gingerbread house (well, me and my chicas did, while the guys played video games). xmas eve was awesome.
we were at granny's for dinner xmas eve, auntie dorth's for xmas day breakfast, back at granny's for xmas dinner, at uncle frank's for boxing day brunch and then back to auntie dorth's for my cousin darren's goodbye dinner yesterday. and now... we rest. aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh...
merry xmas eve!!
today equals:
(in no particular order)
~ wrapping (and maybe some rapping)
~ grocery shopping
~ picking up scott and candice
~ cleaning our apartment
~ dinner at granny's
~ laundry
~ going back to terri's to get our stockings (forgotten by mom and dad) and my cell phone (forgotten by me)
~ hiding the xmas pickle and laughing our asses off watching people try to find it
~ f'ing fun with family and "family"
