What a way to kick in the new year, my parental unit bought a house in the city! We will be paying them rent and renting out the basement to pay the mortgage, and eventually we will buy it off them. It's a very lovely location, and has a nice back yard. It needs lots of work but nothing structurally, My dad built a house...

I hear you.
I think most musicians these days are looking for new ways to make money. The lure of easy money from commercials and what not seems to have made selling out okay for them to do so.
Hell, it beats waiting tables, me and the lady always say. Ha.
I got her a claddagh ring and made a journal of all the writing I have done about us.
What about you? What did you get the boy toy?

Those sound like totally nesty gifts. You basically bought him an outfit for hanging out at home...and that's awesome.
Sunday Edmonton was one of the coldest places on the planet. Siberia was colder. I'm not impressed. Waiting for the bus in freezing temperatures is not my thing, and I have to the sniffles to match.
3 more days of practicum. Huzzah

Jody and I had the 7 Deadly Zins once. It was fantastic. If you can find anything from the Some Young Punks company you should pick it up. Everything they make it awesome.
Sometimes my practicum is awesome. And some days I'm in an office wanting to bang my head on the desk to see if a concussion would make time go faster.
Today it snowed fuckloads and I didn't see even ONE plow.
Oh and today I want to tell you all of the awesomeness that is Affogato. I just found out about it last month. How...

I want a Kitten!
gigondas:
Go on then and get it. Yeehaw!

We just got a kitten. He is awesome.
So I did pretty good this term. My practicum is a bit messed up because of the H1N1. The clinic I am supposed to be working out of is not accepting clients and is just focussing on vaccinating people. So I am little bit all over the place in terms of different Alberta Health Services locations I am at on the North Side. I hope...

ya, that site WAS great, till it decided to not load any videos for me.
Ugh.
Ugh.
One final exam to go. One stupid behaviour project to do. Tomorrow is the last day of class before practicum next week. My brain feels like mush fragments of articulation and phonological knowledge. I need it to solidify.
I went to the opera this past weekend. That was pretty rad. Great seats, epic solos. Rigolleto is a bit of a stupid dramatic story though. But...

Holy fuck. Speech path exams and opera. You sound like my ex. I wish that was more of a bad thing.
I watched Where the Wild things Are. I'm not sure what I thought about the whole movie yet, but the visuals were good. It very much looked like you stepped into the story book. I also like that the kid was just being a kid, pretty crazy running around and yelling and stuff and glimmers of normality.

I would say welcome aboard, but I fear that would sound terribly cliche

Actually sounds great...
THanks giving was Lovely. We got out of town to my aunts house in Acadia Valley. My parents and my cousin came down from Fort Mac, one of uncles and his wife too! So it was great having all those meals together. Food does bring people together. WE got to visit the Hutterite colony nearby...man that's a tough life there. I would kill myself from...

The Hutterites are in-fucking-sane. But god damn do they ever make some tasty food.

School is very intense. It's a condensed semester, practicum starting in november. I'm learning some very practical stuff that I can apply to my placement and my future employment as an SLPA, so it's good
Except from school nothing much else too tell. School, school school.

Batman Arkahm Asylum was good times. It was a short game but I'm not very good at video games so it lasted me a bit longer than most people. I think the game would be even shorter if Batman just shot his enemies in the face, but alas that is not the life of the super hero. Bummer.
School is alright.
