Work should not involve having to check the parking lot for drug addicts and used hypodermics every morning... Sigh.
On the up side, today was the final restaurant meeting for the Taste of Edmonton Festival. This means that all of the restaurants participating (40 in total) brought samples of the dishes they'll be serving for the management to taste. Sadly they weren't able to finish...

In Which Daniel Gets a Visit From National Security
So, I'm blissfully asleep at 9:30 this morning (more on that later) when the doorbell rings. I bolt awake and run to the door in case it is something important. Turns out it is. There are two RCMP officers standing there. I ask if I can help them. They ask if I am... me. I confirm...

I sing a lot when I'm alone. I sing a lot when there are people around. I sing when I'm walking down public streets. Sometimes on the bus. Sometimes in stores. My singing has recieved some very mixed reviews ranging from "fucking hilarious" to "an abortion against music" but that rarely stops me.

i sing alone in my car when driving to work in the morning when it is dark out and nobody else is on the road. trust me, i can't sing.
zenfish:
do a few pushups and situps before bed, that will help tire your body out. and you'll sleep MUCH better.

So I'd be a poet in the night
I've been listening to all the wrong music at all the wrong times. Some habits really do die hard. Or in this case refuse to die at all.
I start working again tomorrow. Part of me is looking forward to it. The pay will be a huge bonus. But the rest...

I sing every alone moment I have, and quite a few non-alone moments... but I only play the piano and sing when I'm home alone. I pretend to be wonderful, and someday I may be.

Today I did yard work. I wish I'd taken before and after pictures. We dug up the section of rocks, tore out all the weeds, put down landscaping fabric and replaced the rocks. I'm sore and I was sweatier than I've been in a long time but it felt good to actually do something.
However... I now have a rash on my forearms from the...

Lately I've been forcing myself to come to terms with the fact that in some ways I am not a very good or healthy person. It's been unpleasant but in doing so I've started to make some changes to my behaviour and to my personality. I'm finally trying to grow up a little. But not too much... I think this, combined with my natural ability...

I've been on stage before (a couple of high school productions), and I found the experience to be a little nerve wracking. I think I could handle TV, although I've been told that I have a face fit for radio.

that put a huge smile on my face. you were totally missed, my friend.

Yeah, I thought if I talked about hockey you might take offense. 
I think my boyfriend would have lost his mind if the result had been different. And then I would have lost my mind trying to pull him out of his slump.
Question: As an Oilers fan, did you cheer for the Flames in 2004? It just seems wrong to me. You just don't cheer for your nemesis.

well actually in my dream you had moved here and were working in a restaurant. no hanging from your neck.
I may be away for a bit. I have to give back the laptop I've been using and it is being replaced with a very underpowered desktop. Thankfully glass_cat has been kind enough to give me some parts to play around with in the hopes of building a decent machine. However, I'm not sure if it will work right away or when I'll get a...

That was a TERRIBLE drop back to NO ONE! Ack.

Yeah, I'll go get it. This is getting ridiculous. And too bad we no longer have comment counts!
Oilers win.
Daniel drinks.
Karaoke.
There's only one thing that could have possibly made this night better and that will come in good time.
I wish I could sleep but I'm just not capable.
Old memories are strange sometimes. I remember people I haven't talked to in years. I remember things times that I was weak and things that have made me stronger. I remember...

Hope you have a eventful time passed out. I can't sleep. I'm watching old episodes of Law and Order that I've seen dozens of times. I'm in and out of chat but I don't know anyone who's on right now so it's kind of boring. I do like the new chat layout though...

It's hard for me to pick only one thing I like about you, FP. You're one hell of a friend.
However, I don't like the fact that you're unwilling to post any of your work here. I'm a terrible writer when compared to a lot of people around here, but I still manage to keep SGS3 afloat.
If I can do it, how hard can it really be?

Nope. No MSN. I just use iChat/AIM. And even then I hide behind an away message.
PS: Another thing I like about you is the night we all hung out for my birthday and you and I ate sweet potato fries while laughing over those retarded Big Foot books. I like seeing you!

Well I'm back in Edmonton. Getting on the plane this morning was the hardest thing in the world. Every part of me was screaming to turn around and go back. I know I'm better off financially being here but that doesn't make it hurt any less.
