Oh shit.

In all the buying of Christmas presents I didn't keep tabs on my bank account and it suddenly dipped below the amount I need to have my condo downpayment cheque cash. Holiday banking delays have slowed the cheque from getting cashed, which is part of the problem, they got the cheque well before Christmas and I was told that it will be cashed...

Drunk Bastard
First night of my vacation and the boss was buyin drinks. Got a few pints of a semi-local brew, Alexander Keith's, in me and I'm slowly recovering. Also got a short little Christmas bonus and finally I'm done for the year! No more work for two weeks! Then in February I get to take another vacation to Mexico!

The bastard portion of this...

For holiday break yuk-yuks look no further than Angry Alien Productions, home of the 30 Seconds Bunnies Theatre. Now featuring It's a Wonderful Life!

If anyone wants to worry about me, here's a worthy cause. Somehow my bellybutton (navel for you fancy-types) has spontaneously started to bleed! I'm not sure when this happened, except that its starting to hurt a bit.

Update: The bleeding has scabbed and there's no more pain. So I may just live through this! I appreciate all concern!

Somehow I've managed to spend more on gifts in the one year that I've been saving like crazy than in any other. I'm not clear on how that's worked out. Maybe I'm all grown up or I find shopping for others more appealing when I always manage to score a little something for myself. Either way, if you've not already stopped by there, you can...

UPDATE: Okay, so on Monday I woke up at 4:00am to start working. Then on Tuesday I go to sleep at 4:00am... I'm under attack by some sort of crazy project synchronicity or something.

I also went back to my habit of supplementing sleep with those expensive and chemical-tasting energy drinks. Back in the days when I was a virile dating machine (not really) I...

UPDATE: It's late here and I'm working on a particularly nasty programming problem. Now, armed with my trusty 500ml of Boddington's (last in the fridge) I cannot but succeed.

Suddenly I found myself having strange and vivid dreams about running over werewolves with a truck and my father installing security guns in the backyard and cat-repellant carpet in the living room. This of course prompted me to wake at 4:00 am to begin work on a job application and updated resume. Funny how stuff works out like that, huh?

My fear of the childhood favourite that is Pizza-Hut was confirmed the other day when I got brutal food poisoning and wasn't permitted to sleep on the one night when it really counted.

Suffice to say the quote "That one blowed up real good!" should illustrate my night with more detail that I should probably supply.

As I've mentioned before, I'm pulling double-duty on the...

Been in and out, not writing too much lately, but I figured I'd drop this little hint. If you're looking for absurdly great and absurdly weird music to liven up the winter season look no further than this years release from The Fiery Furnaces. Blueberry Boat is full of the good kind of craziness that gels into a narrative which is just plain fun to...

Spent last night at a sexy party! Plenty of sexy literature, sexy outfits and me! But now, I've a headache and that's no fun for anyone!

So I'll say more later..

And more did I say! I think I'm addicted to antacids or something.
