It's nice having a little bit of money. I haven't really been able to treat myself to anything in a while. Not that I'm really spending that much now either...
But I did buy Dear You on vinyl. I've been resisting for a long time because I could never justify spending the money. That was my one gift to myself and probably the only one...

Today old ladies and children smiled and waved at me.
I'm beginning to think that maybe, deep down somewhere, I have some of that... umm... charisma... stuff... Or maybe that's just the beer and sleep deprivation talking. With the upcoming paycheques I'm planning to get some new clothes and maybe stop looking like such a fucking grub all the time. FreakPirate + sexy = world...

Yeah, I'd say that you have lots of that charisma stuff. 
If you should get around to this world domination thing, don't forget that I would make an excellent lackey.

A place called rednik in the south of Calgary. There are tons of places to buy them here in town though, lots of skateshops on 17th ave carry them.
Doesn't White ave have lots? Oh probably not because white ave is a silly knock off of 17th!

Well, I'm all done at Taste of Edmonton. I screwed up my arm but I got some wonderful references for the future and brought home a buttload of money. Or I'll bring home a buttload of money on Wednesday. Now I have a few days off before I head back to Fort McMurray where I will also bring home even more buttloads.
After work I...

Awesome! I thought you'd dig him. I'm seriously addicted right now. I just made "P.O.S. Is Ruining My Life" a new ringtone 
mr_david:
When are you going to be back in McMurray again?
The anti-inflamatories the doctor gave me make me quite drowsy. I don't really feel like sleeping. My head just feels a bit mushy.
I go back to work tomorrow morning. I'm on restricted duty and I'm only allowed to drive the forklift. No physical labor for me.
I can't wait for the next few weeks to pass. I want the money so badly and I...

Moving is nothing to be cranky about, young grasshopper! New experiences for the win!
malloreigh:
Hell yes there are still more to come. You can't live in Deadmonton for the rest of your life!
So... fuck that entry.
I'm still saddened by a lot of things but hopefully they'll all work out in the end. I just hate waiting. Oh god how I hate waiting.
WCB covered my doctor's bill and my medication. I just have a strain in my forearm. It's from catching a falling grill before anyone makes the jokes. Assholes. I'm on light duty for at...

I think it's about time you save up for a tattoo. That's what I think. Doesn't solve much of your problems; but you know, I never really offered you advice that would, so I figure I shouldn't start now.
zenfish:
ya, that's not a good thing... 
I've been replaced in pretty much every aspect of my life today, personal and professional. And while that does take care of some of my problems it just creates others that I have even less desire to deal with. I'm really not sure what purpose I serve right at the moment.

cause i was drunk.

Please go give Lucy some love. And to all my Toronto friends... please take care of her. I'm doing a shitty job. Please don't let her down.
Sometimes I try to do things, and it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to
And I get real frustrated, it's like, I try hard to do it and like I take my time

I'm sorry if I have been pushing you to talk about stuff, FP; that isn't my intention. You're like a brother and I want to be there for you in the same way that you've been there for me.
I will probably be out to see Lucy and give her a hand this weekend.

Cracking is fun isn't it?
/Sarcasm
I wish I knew what to say to help, but my mask of sanity is about to slip my damn self, so I'm not exactly in a position to be dispensing advice.

You know... I keep trying to tell myself I'm doing the right thing but holy shit am I ever regretting it right now. I'm exhausted, I think I've fucked up my left arm, I stink like grease and I'm about ready to walk into traffic.
The money is going to be wonderful but is it really worth the suffering I'm putting myself through?
I'm good...

I need cuddles and loves.
Please come rescue me.

And finally... a good day.
Not much work, lots of golf carting, free food, Clerks and poker. Although I did lose horribly at poker. Twice. Fuck you John. Fuuuuuuck you.
I'm going to start a mediocre punk band. We're going to have an accordion player. And drive/live in an old Volkswagen bus. There was one at the festival today. It was incredible. I wish I...

But then I'd have to go to edmonton. But I'll consider it. What day do you guys go?
lotus:
well, I work weekends, so a wednesday could work.
I'll ponder it.

I don't want to talk about work so I won't.

You were in my dream last night. I was at a party and you showed up by climbing in through a balcony window. I asked you why you didn't tell me you were coming to newfoundland. 
Today was better.
Only 9 hours this time. Everything went well at the breakfast. So that was a bonus. But the second I got home the entire week slugged me in the head and now I'm completely useless. I feel so disgusting. I'm sweaty and tired and hot and I just can't be bothered to get up. I'm exhausted.
However, I am now in love...

Damn.

It may not help the money situation, but after about a month straight of ridiculously stressful days at work I can tell you that a couple of hours in strip club will melt away any and all stress; and leave only a smile in its place. I swear to god it's like being born again 
So... all of my bitching about yesterday... scratch that. That was like a fucking cake walk compared to today.
