i've got a painful cough and a sore throat.

i hate it, but i keep thinking SARS. i know it's not the sars, because, well, i can't be. but i think about it anyway, because the media has got everyone freaked out.

a machinist conference in Minnisota cancelled the reservations of all their Canadian antendees (Torontonians or not) and told them they were not welcome....

No one shouldworry about what machinists think, these are after all the people who buy popular mechanics because popular science magazine is "too liberal."

job hunting is total balls.


SKILLS SUMMARY
I am a geek. I collect records and comic books and video games. I like playing in a band. I am socially retarded. I like to talk to people about geeky things, and often I can convince them that these geeky things are good.

last exam.. t-minus 58 minutes. uh-oh.

then i get to watch the hockey. throughout all of last year's playoffs no matter how ugly things got, i was convinced that the leafs could pull it off. i don't have that feeling now. it's more of a dread feeling.

anyone notice that almost every...

my left eye wont stop twitching.

ever since i went two days without sleep so i could finish my web design final, my left eye has been sporadically twitching.

at first i thought it was funny, now it's a little disconcerting.

family today. ungh. don't get me wrong, i love my family. just not all at once.

i've gotten to the point in my life...

Oh how I hate the eye twitch.

I don't always listen to the CDs I first buy 'em either, except for new-in-shrinkwrap ones. Like sometimes I'll buy a whole bunch of used ones at once but I only listen to one or two.
kopper:
once in a while i get one watery eye... it's also the left.

i did the family thing today.... so exhausting. but now, my laundry is done.

the panic is wearing off.

after two weeks of hell, i'm okay. played some playstation hockey, practised with the band, ingested way more tequilla than i'm used to, you know, the usual.

now i've got to scramble together my taxes and find a job.

i want everyone to contribute something for my resume. i'll collect the results and see if i can use it.

knee deep? sounds excellent. i'd like to take it up to at least waist level.. my last rye-fest happened at scot's corner, and the bartender had to coach me through the tab payment portion of the evening..

i'm watching the buffy & angel back-to-back right now... this new angel storyline is fucking dumb...

Weird. I've never had dreams about Suicide Girls before.

Seriously.

Okay, for some reason, I was in Baghdad. But it was after the war, and it had become like a tourist attraction for people from the west. Please, no comments about the political implications of that one. Twwly was there, driving a really sweet blue GTO around the streets. I don't know why, it doesn't...

i slept. way too much, actually. from 9am until 7pm. and then a nap from 10:30pm until 1am or so.

so now i'm up again. ha!

anyway, i'm going to give it another shot tonight, see if i can actually get up at 8:30 or something, like all those normal folks i keep hearing about.

2 more papers!
