Nothing like SG in the morning... woo

Two posts in one day, oh my!

Anyway... went out for drinks with the old (frightfully -- yay puns) dreaded high-school crew.

While it was fun, I feel kinda weird about the end of the evening. I like... ditched them almost. Thing was -- I don't drive and the ( THE ) typical photo-id establishments ask for is a drivers license. Usually it isn't a...

Not much time left...

to enter a short story in the CBC Literary Awards contest thing.

I'm currently writing a story about a punk living out his last days in an empty apartment as a fatal disease wipes out all of humanity.

He recounts his life, laments his regrets, and has a revelation with what he wants to believe is God before passing away.

Sad...

It's my friend's birthday and she's particularly special.

I was thinking of getting her a pre-paid subscription to SG.

Except that I'm not sure and want to ask you all something.

Now, SG-bias aside, if you didn't have an SG subscription and someone bought one for you for your b-day; would you find it a suitable gift or would it come off as weird, awkward,...

It's 7:23pm on a weeknight and I'm amazed that I'm home at this hour... I'm sitting here wondering what to do with myself.

Is it weird to be stressed out about not being stressed out?

I don't think I can explain it better than that. I just feel anxious.

Hmmm... went out to a party last night. House party at Brendan's which is always good. He has such a wonderful apartment, if it weren't for the area, I'd be begging him to find me a spot in his building.

Anyhow, I brought along some good friends of mine. I dragged them out later on to Laid Lounge. I bought Robin and I shots of...

This "War on Porn" thing has me miffed.

I'm not even from the states, but since SG is located there I have to deal with really dumb, wasteful, and patronizing laws that under most other circumstances -- wouldn't affect me.

The premise of it is so horribly backwards (read: head up ass). The exploiters are certainly not ones to try to stop exploitation. Especially when...

What is virtue amongst mongrels?

Petulant psuedo-philanthropists who believe they are unrivalled intellectuals... frankly sicken me.

Patience, like grace or fortitude, is an ideal lost to a civilization that can't see it's own feet.

Swallow another chunky, you can't slow down now. Feast upon reason and devour our enlightenment. In your gluttony, wither in obesity and drag us into your despair.

I think I learned a little more self-control today,

At work I was assigned some tasks I immediately felt were a complete waste of my time, energy, and talents. In fact, as I angrily grit my teeth and manifested all manner of ill-wishes; I simply kept working. I really think I did well to keep on a game face -- both literally and in my...

The geek is over and out of my system.

I spent a good portion of the evening fixing my bike. New tires, realigned the brakes, touched up some gearing. I can't wait to start riding to work again. I've really missed it.

But that's what you get when the tire bursts.

Anyway, I think I've been in a bit of a tempestuous mood lately. Someone...

Having a geek weekend with girlfriend's little brother.

Doom 3 is pretty fun with the co-op mod.

If anyone wishes to join, lemme know.

Ordered pizza online and everything.

.. oh and I did get the raise at work. Not as much as I was hoping, but things are lookin up so I think I might be able to deal.

Cheers.

My mother has seems to have developed a sick addiction with using me as her personal negative-energy repository.

Anyone have experience with letter mothers/mother-figures down gently?

I just want her to realize that I don't appreciate being her first line of defense when she gets all messed up and self-defeated... or does that make me a bad person?

I dunno.. I take it all in...
