Ridiculousness strikes again

I have that this is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever read.

CBC News: Special delivery proves impossible for disabled man

Weekend fun

WHEW! What a weekend. The highlight of course, was the Butchart Gardens Christmas party. The pics of the party (and the aftermath) are below.

Now, on to the many projects I have due.


Picture for posterities sake.

Oh, if it weren't for my job

If I didn't have an an exellent job in Victoria, I think I would quit and just live in Nanaimo full-time. This place is just ridiculous. I found about 3 or 4 lunches worth of Tupperware that were so old that I just through them away rather than trying to clean out the fuzz in the containers. But it's where I found them that is just the killer.

Doesn't everyone keep lunch bags of dirty Tupperware in thei laundry room, in a big hamper along with a bunch of dirty towels and an extension cord?

If I became an alcoholic, at least I would have a reason.

That being said, Christmas party tonight! WHEE!! I've been looking forward to this for ages. It is soooo much fun!

Ta-ta!

My life, my paper, my car

Life goes on. I finished my History paper and submitted it today. Now I get to worry while I wait for the result. Onto my other papers now. I have an 800 word draft due in 3 hours. I have an Media Studies porject due on next Friday, and my English paper on Dec.6. Then finals. Too much going on! AGH!

Last October I bought my car for $4000. I just added up all my receipts, and I have spent $2112.77 maintaining and repairing it since then. And I just found out that the car needs another $500 in work, and soon.

Oh, and my sister's car got broken into for the second time in two weeks. Nothing taken, no damage to the car.

Whata lovely city we live in.

Weekend update

In a few words, not much. Had a good time with some friends on Friday, worked Saturday, had parents over for lunch this afternoon...

Oh, and we threw away the ugliest chair imaginable. You can read about it here.

Other than that, I am stressing about my paper, still.

Lost

I'm lost in my history paper. I have my thesis, I have 600 words. I just don't know where to go from here. I don't know what to footnote or not. I just don't know.

And the frickin' thing is due on Tuesday.

ugh...

I hate society

To the little f*ckers that broke into my car last night...

F*CK YOU!

You broke into my car, shattering glass everywhere, ransacked the contents, and didn't take a single thing! Oh, I forgot. Breaking the window was rewarded by the $4.00 in Tim Horton's gift certificates you took from the glovebox. Don't spend them all in one place!

Your antics have cost me $300 dollars. That's $300 I don't have, and had to beg from my parents. I missed a lecture, one I actually wanted to attend, dealing with the police and ICBC. And by the way, you are the worst thieves I have ever seen!

Did you know that after ripping out the ash tray looking for change (and not finding any) that you missed the $10 worth of change in the change compartment? Or the $150 worth of speakers in the trunk that you left behind, which you can't have missed, seeing as you actually went into the trunk? What a bunch of losers...

Enjoy your double-doubles guys, I hope they are satisfying.

Oh, and if you ever catch you, I'm gonna twist your balls, rip them off, and ram them down your F*CKIN' THROAT!!!

Always read the label...

So i was in the bathroom this afternoon, when I noticed a new aerosol can on the counter that hasn't been there previously. It was yellow and orange, had a picture of a flower on it, and said "New Scent: Temptations." So naturally, I thought, "I wonder what this smells like?" I prepared to spray it in the air to see what this new air freshener smelled like.

It's a damn good thing my brain had time to go "Damn, this is a heavy aerosol can for an air freshener!" as well as stop my index finger from moving. It was a narrowly averted disaster. This was no air freshener, this was a new can of shaving cream!

When I realized what I had nearly done, as well as the hilarious image of me spraying shaving cream everywhere with a flourish (as only I can do), I just about killed myself laughing. And my sister nearly died when I explained it to her after emerging almost doubled over with laughter from the bathroom.

Seriously, though. ALWAYS read the name of a product before spraying it in the air.

Seriously.

Last day...

Today was it. I am now finished in my old job. I have been busted down from Food Services System Specialist, to a Dining Room Host. But it was voluntary.

I wasn't actually 'busted down.' I was replaced when I went back to school, and only worked the job part-time. I am grateful that my employer was able to keep me on as long as they have, and that they have found various jobs to keep me employed until the end of the school year. It was just weird today, packing up all my personal belongings, and then heading out. I'll probably have to give up my keys soon too... *sniff.* I'm going to miss my immediate co-workers the most.

But on to new things! Next Friday I get to train in my new job, and start working directly with the public again, which I have really missed over the past couple of years. Here's to new things!

As a final thought, I found this surfing around on the web. It is a photo-mosaic of Bush, made of more than 6,000 photos of American troops that have died under his command.

Just give it a minute to load. You may also want to view my friend Tara's posting. Click on the link in her post.

Also today, I found out about "Gellie Man." I don't know much about it, but this kid made a music video at home with his webcam, and you will bust a gut laughing. Note the Mickey Mouse sheets! Click here to watch the video. You'll need Windows Media Player.

Cheers!

Good bye, fair vanity!

I was brushing my teeth tonight, when I looked in the mirror and noticed something that I have known was happening, but refused to acknowledge.

My hairline is receding. Noticeably.

I have always appreciated my hair. I have had a full head of thick, dark brown hair my entire life. My grandfather was balding, and my father is balding, so I knew that it is a reality I'd have to face at one point or another, but I'm just not ready yet!

I'm only 21 years old!

When I pull my hair back, my hairline is now even with the front of my ears. In a few months, it will be farther back. If I start to look strange, I have made a pact with myself that I will shave my head. Better to be 100% bald than to look strange.

Or maybe I'll go for the "Patrick Stewart" look. Who knows?
