I don't want to complain. I don't like to complain. However, I feel pretty blah right now...so if my writing seems odd, blame it on my pounding headache.

Today is the day I get to see the 'Sex and the City' movie! I am excited beyond words. I watched the trailer a few times over this morning which got me more and more excited about the whole thing. I want to get all glammed up for the movie and cannot figure out what to wear. This is a real event to me. I know that may seem pathetic to some, the fact that I feel a strong desire to get dressed up for a movie, but honestly, I don't care much.

Now, again, I am not trying to complain, but I kinda wish I was going to the movie with some girl friends. I wish I had a bunch of girl friends that were as close to me as Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda are to each other. However, I have never really had good girl friends. I've been friends with girls, and don't get me wrong I did enjoy it...But I never felt I had a group I could depend on. I am sure that much of it was due to my lack of trust, and my inability to get excited about every little "girly" thing (ironically I often am the 'girly' one of the group)....Hmm...Come to think of it there have been times when I was close with one girl at a time. But since a little after high school there have not really been any close girlfriends like that in my life. It is something I desire though. Something that I want to work on. Girls need their girl friends, and I am sure that I would feel a more balanced person if I had those sorts of relationships.

So, here's my question to all of you out there. Either it is just something you can think about, or something you can leave a comment about. I, personally, am rather reserved and slightly shy when it comes to meeting new people, not because I don't like people, but because I don't think people will find me interesting most of the time. I am not working right now (in between jobs) and I am not going to school, so how, in a situation like mine, do you meet people and make new friends? (Oh, and I don't like the bar!) Then, once you have made friends with someone, how do you create a stronger and closer relationship with them??

Something for me to think about I suppose.

Bathroom re-do

J(my fiance) and I having been stressing off and on due to the leak in our bathroom ceiling. Our neighbor above was not very helpful when we brought it to her attention in mid-January. So, we have been dealing with our condo board who have been trying to figure it out, and have had three separate plumbers in as they assumed it was a plumbing issue (which would be the condo associations responsibility). They cut two holes in our ceiling awhile back, but still nothing was resolved.

Finally last night they got somewhere! Two of the guys on the condo board went upstairs and cut a whole in the ladies wall where the plumbing was. They ran the water and ran the water, but saw no dripping. Meanwhile water is pouring into our place! We collected almost a whole ice cream pale worth of water, and that was only the stuff we were catching. Anyways, I guess they also found some mold in the wall, and it seems that the water was soaking in between some cracked tiles, back behind the grout, and then making its way onto our ceiling.

So after all this, they contacted the lady who owns the place (she is renting it out right now to some nice girl). I don't know if she thought they were lying or what, but she was there tonight with some construction guy and she was saying that she still thinks it is a plumbing problem. J who was with the condo guys last night when they were trying to figure it out told her what they thought it was. J showed them the loose tiles and the construction guy tore some off. I could not believe the amount of mold there. It was bad. She still seemed to deny it was a problem with her place, but we didn't feel like arguing with her. Eventually one of the condo guys showed up to take a look and show her what they noticed (exactly what J showed her). After condo guy talked to her he came down and talked to us. He said that she is responsible for repair to her place, and that apparently one of the other condo guys had said to her (in her words) that the condo association would pay for repairs to our place so as not to cause conflict between owners.

So, we are hoping this is actually what will happen. We much rather deal with the condo board fixing our place then the lady. She has refused to pay already, and has no respect for us (maybe because she thinks we are young). Anyways, if I ever have to deal with her again, it will be too soon. I hope she gets this thing done ASAP so we can get our place fixed up too. It's getting close to the wedding now and I don't want to be dealing with construction in our house while I am close to the wedding date.

On a more positive note, I am going to see 'Sex and the City' on thursday night. They have a "sneak peak" at the theater and I have tickets! Yeah!!!
