Gin is good. 8 gins are even better.

So what's the deal with George Bush? The fucking guy still stays in power with an approval rating of 31%.

6 billion dollars a month to send American soldiers to Iraq to get killed. Ummmmm?

In other news, fiddlehead season has arrived here in good 'ole NB. I bought a couple of pounds today. Mmmmmmm....a little butter...

29%!!! It's only 29%!!!

Thank you for the story of your how you go your pup. It's heartwarming but very sad at the same time... and you have to wonder what became of the others. I have always said there should be some sort of test people have to take before getting pets - some people are just too stupid and insensitive. (I say the same about having kids, by the way, but I'm sure the activists would love that.) Our pound pup had been in his cell for 3 months when we took him home, and they hardly ever keep dogs around that long at the Humane Society. They told us he weighed 80 lbs. when he was dropped off (keep in mind he's 7 years old), and we knew he looked emaciated, but when our vet checked him out... he only weighed 57 lbs. He'd lost that much in 3 months! We couldn't imagine him ever having weighed 80. We thought it must have been a mistake. Yesterday, he had his yearly check-up, and he weighs 75. I guess 80's not out of the picture because he looks damn healthy now. smile

You like Esthero? I was a huge fan of her first album, but I found the second one disappointing - and after such anticipation. It's got a couple good ones, but...

I went and saw INXS last night. The new lead singer JD is from about a 3 hour drive from where I live. Last night was their first Canadian date and he was pretty stoked. He was a great showman. I'm old, so it was a good show for me. All the hits baby!!

Don't worry, I'm still listening to Lacuna Coil. I just took...

Damn. At this point, my pre-playoff predictions look fairly good.

I'm not pleased that the Devs will likely be swept, but, hey, at least I won't owe you big money after these playoffs. biggrin

i'm sorry, the only story i can think of involves how i spent most of my evening two nights ago sitting on someone's front steps with a puppy who seemed very much abandoned, and i already wrote that one out on my other blog thingy. the short of it: finally found her home and all was well, she must have just snuck out somehow. happy ending and all.

When I go grocery shopping I snap the ipon on shuffle and driver.

Today it shuffled an odd set. See if you can pick out the song that doesn't fit:

1. You know what you are? - NIN
2. Too Funky - George Michael
3. Mein Hertz Brent - Rammstein
4. God save us - Ill Nino

Here's a pic I found of myself from...

The numbers would probably say that the Devils have a good chance to win, but 15-game winning streaks are often followed by semi-slumps.

Did you see that boring Game 7 between Calgary and Anaheim? Isn't hockey supposed to be *exciting*?
pastura:
whenever i see george michael's name, i think of boy george. isn't that odd? i actually saw boy george this past winter at a local gay club. he's dj boy george now, and i was coerced into going. i generally shun anything 80's or anything that came out of the 80's... myself included.

so you have an uncle who writes about witchcract? tell me more...

well, at least you have beautiful views close to home to use your good camera on. i'm sure you have lovely mental pictures of your former travel days though, and sometimes that can mean a lot more. i used to spend so much time behind the camera, afraid i'd forget a scene, that i never experienced the scene to begin with!

well good for you for singing but not to the kids. i got my voice from my parents which means i am also forever doomed to silence around others.

no set yet, but it's becoming more real every day. gotta wait for a flash unit to come back from middle america where it's being repaired and then for the timing to work out - everyone available and ready and weather and time off of work, etc. it might happen this decade. thanks for sounding excited wink
scarletbeat:
Congratulations!
A baby scorpio for you.
If it's a girl you should then either call her Scarlet or Anne (my real name) blush wink

So Tired....

Yesterday was hell. 13 hours, two provinces, over 600 miles at 85 mph to the drone of a diesel engine.

Thank god for the ipod.

Two provinces. Damn, that can't possibly be quick and easy.

For those of you who care, I've lost 10 lbs in the last month.

In other news, I've quit the nursery and in two weeks I start driving a potato chip truck. Don't laugh, it's super good money!!

Last night I went to church. No, it didn't crumble when I walked in.

I went to hear a talk that my Uncle was giving on Witchcraft...
