I'm starting to dislike weekends. I really don't do anything exciting. Yesterday I volunteered to work an extra day at Snaz's request. And today I visited uncommoncold at work, and had a soy ice cream cone. And then the rest of the day I've been reading more "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix".

That's really all I've done today. Oh, I bought a...

I, on the other hand, am looking forwards to six week of "weekends" because in my last few years of working retail, I never get Saturdays and Sundays off, which all of my other friends with real jobs do. To be fair, I at least get 2 days off in a row, but who the hell wants to do stuff on a weeknight with me when they have to go to work at 8 the next morning?

I would totally do nothing with you, by the way. I like just hanging around watching cartoons or whatever. smile

He doesn't really know Gizmo anyway, because Calli always calls him "Mow Mow Face". He does sorta respond to Momo!

I've spent the last two hours making a mix cd. Anyone without an mp3 player will appreciate the ammount of work that needs to go into a proper mix cd.

To start, I create an empty playlist in iTunes, and I give it some sort of temporary name. I then go browse through the library of music I've imported recently (starting at the newest additions...

sounds like your mix philosophy is pretty close to mine! smile

I'm never too good at this because I can never decide what to include. Also, NJ has this crazy program where you can blend the beginnings and endings of tracks, and I don't know how it works.

I had the best day yesterday. It was my first day of work in the rain, but it turned out pretty well and I managed to get a lot of people signed up to support the SPCA. I had a record setting day for myself.

After work I saved a hurt bird with jSnaz. It's wing was broken, so we called up WildARC (the SPCA's...

D-oh, I won't be in Vancouver to meet you. mad How about you come to Manitoba to fundraise for the little aminals?

You should be pleased as punch that you don't really resemble Bud Cort. He didn't age well and basically looks like hell now. tongue

I feel so distant from myself right now. I've no motivation to do anything.

I thought that doing a "nothing" like watching a movie (something that really doesn't require any sort of action on my part) might be something. But then I got to the video store and I could not find anything that I really felt like watching. I ended up renting "Sin City"...

Hey you. How are ya?

Open Mic Music night in Vancouver will be happenning soon.

Oh, you do not look like Bud Cort, dude. I mean, you're a god... but Bud Cort was Adonis incarnate (at his prime: certainly not now). I had the hugest girl hard on for him when I first saw that movie.

I shot you an email. No hurry kiss kiss kiss

Umm... Works going good. Yay for that.

Yes I do have a few pictures and I'll upload them as soon as I've recharged the batteries for my camera. Nothing overly exciting... but I've been told to "step up", so I'll post very soon.

In other news... this "post game" is exciting. I've been horribly lazy and haven't written the postcards or letters that I've promised...

I'll be doing inbound customer service for MTS in the internet services department. Yes, it is a call centre, but not in the cubicle farm sense. The pay is awesome. It's double my current hourly wage!

Yay new pictures!
I want a Hipplespostcard frown

(one.) Fucking hell! This is the third time I'm typing this whole post. The first time I accidentally clicked "Update" again (when I meant to hit "Save Entry"... it made sense at the time). The second time I accidentally closed the tab I was writing it in. This is the last time! If I don't get through it this time successfully you'll never see it....

Dude, you should be glad I just said no to burgers! Y'know, I heard they have cows in them. wink Also, I did say that it was a little late for burgers, thus justifying our burger-free date.

We did have some fun shenanigans (and the only thing missing from yours was the "e" at the beginning). I forgot to mention in the entry that we went out to look at this old church in St. Norbert and NJ took some photos of a shrine/chapel. Also, we drove out to these Trappist monastery ruins, but there was some dude in a truck just sitting there, so we didn't stick around. It was too dark to see anything anyway...

Well, my dear, step up! Uncommoncold says you hold the photos from your hat-buying adventures the other day.

Maybe they're posted in your pics already? i will go and check.

How Will I Know Her?

I had a dream recently in which I was spending time with someone that I cared about. They kept leaning in and putting their arms around me. Or they'd stop to hug me. Or we'd hold hands. Nothing was sexual... it was just two people being close to one another.

When I woke up, the memories of the dreams took...

I should've hugged you when you left my place yesterday.

Oh, I like your new photo!

(one.) List style entries rock. They are easy to put together because I can just point form shoot off all of my little thoughts and not have to worry about connecting them in any sort of fashion. (CeCe gets all the original credit for this concept right now...)

(two.) For weeks it seems like friend activity has been slowing down on SG... little to...

I find out today what sort of damage my camera has incurred at the hands of jSnaz. She said there's a dent; I'm not worried so long as it works perfectly still...

Roommates sister and boyfriend are now staying here. I had absolutely no warning what so ever, beyond a phone call yesterday afternoon saying they'd be here in an hour. Fucking hell. Oh well,...

Your camera got damaged? That's too bad. frown

I took some photos of myself last night since I figured out the remote for my camera, and good lord, I am so not photogenic. I erased 'em all!

Mwahahaha! I can't believe yours are fake, too! tongue

Talk to you tomorrow, enjoy your guests!

Quick update: Today I couldn't convince anyone that the SPCA was awesome. frown If I don't do it well tomorrow, I may have to start looking for a new job I think.

The Harry Potter books are quickly becoming an obsession. And this Hogwarts Interactive is kind of fun too.

My roommates rent check bounced. I've tried calling him, but he's far away and not answering...

I think jobs with quotas can be very unfair. How is it your fault if people aren't receptive that day? Somtimes, folks are just not interested. Also, didn't you just start this job a couple of weeks ago? How are you expected to be perfect at it already?
uncommoncold:
I'd totally come live with you. Just say the word. I'm getting stressed about not having a place to live yet, and you'd give me an extra reason to go vegan.

I didn't finish all my chores today like I had hoped, but I haven't heard anything from my roommate yet, so I don't know if I should be expecting visitors soon. Regardless, I only still have to tidy my room (which just means do a few loads of laundry) and clean the bathroom... should be easy.

Tonight I went on a date with uncommoncold....

It's still broken, but it hasn't gone anywhere because I don't have the money to fix it. frown

I'd have to read the 3rd book in awhile, so I'm of no help with your query. But don't listen to Nikonjustice because he hasn't read them at all! Or maybe he has secretly? (I can dream, right?)

A date, eh? Good stuff, good stuff. Dates are fun!

Last night we had the going away party for my boss. It was Lotus Pond followed by hanging out at a little park downtown. I enjoyed everyones company a lot (I work with the coolest people in the world). Also, I found out that after work on Friday, I was officially meeting my quota! All I have to do now is keep up the good...

Anything for $$, eh? So does this mean you will be charging us to view some more SB sets? wink That sucks for me, 'cause I ain't gots no money left.

Did you really order a Paper Moon album? That's awesome. I woulda sent you a burned one, though, if you wanted (the old one, not the unreleased one, of course). Where did you order from?
