From my new hot little city...

Well... here I am. In Fredericton.
I got here Thursday night. After some great help from Dave and a friend of his and then Dad and Alex when we got here. It was warm and very very tiring. I've never sweat like that before. But all when smoothly I think. Didn't have the energy to do much that night so I crashed at Dave's, like just layed down and passed out. I had to get back over here for 7:30 though cause the people were coming to hook up my stuff. So I have telephone number and internet and cable. I spent most of the day unpacking on Friday, then Dave and I got groceries. That was fun. I've always hated grocery shopping alone, makes me feel like I'm gonna have to eat it all or something... I don't know.. some screwed up psychological eating thing I guess. Anyways, we got groceries, then I spent the rest of the evenign unpacking more and getting my computer working.
Yesterday, Saturday was a nice early day. I went to the shopping area to find a few things needed things, I did well. Panicked the whole time, was quite terrified and got considerably more homesick but it went well I guess. Then I came home, apparently a little too late or I could have seen kittens, but oh well. Another time perhaps. So I got ready to go to Susana's for a BBQ, which was fun. Some family was there so that we good and I met the little guy I'm gonna be babysitting, as well as some of the other people who'd like my childcare services. ( I really hope I have the energy for this...)
Then Dave wanted me to go to a house party of a few of the habitat peoples. So I went. Had a good enough time... how I do hope I make some friends. I do very much hate feeling like I'm just sitting on the sidelines watching everyone have a good time... but oh well... this is after all me we're talking bout... its quite unlikely. Was invited to somthing else next weekend so we'll see.
This is difficult for me to complain about cause I know Dave'll read it but whatever, maybe he doesn't check regularly... anyways. Feel like I'm gonna be a wet blanket on anything we do together, cause I don't know anyone well so I'm follow him around and such.
Anyways, back to my past weekend itinerary... came home and watched a couple x-files episodes with Dave, I fell asleep in the last one and now I've no idea what happened. So I came home and went to bed... though I didn't fall asleep until about 5 minutes before my mother called to see when I was going to church and to find out where I was when she called last night at 11. This preceded twenty questions on who I was with, where I was, what I was doing etc... joy.
Yep... so here I am.. I've had bout 3 hours sleep, between the phone calls and the hot and the sick and the terrified to be alone and my cat who is loudly demanding attention and running rampant around the apartment.
I don't like the weather here. Its hot. I think its hotter today when its raining then it was when it was sunny. We had a thunder storm last night and the power was out uptown.. or downtown, whatever they call it here. T'was dark.
Sooo.. today.. I'm gonna get away from here. Turn up my music, and wash some dishes and then bake peanut butter chocolate chip cookies for Dave and perhaps a couple for me.
Tootles.
