This'll be the last post until after the move. The computer is probably going to come down soon, and the DSL account is nuked tomorrow. I'm a little depressed moving out of this place. Obviously, moving always sucks. But the new place isn't even fully renovated yet (even though my friends have done amazing work totally redoing the basement for me), which is disheartening, and...

New places are fun. But I do miss my old little basement apartment on bathurst street, despite now sharing a four-level house.

I found a copy of the new King Cobb Steelie record today. Thrilled doesn't begin to cover it.
Relaxing weekend. My mom came down to visit and we did some local touristy things.
I got to be part of some interesting inner circle stuff at work. This could be interesting, although I'm gonna be busy as all get-out for the next couple of days.

Show-off.
Wednesday marked my two year anniversary at work. Two years since I started my dream job.
Over Irish Car Bombs at one of our regular haunts, with some of the best people I've ever been fortunate enough to meet, I made the following toast:
Here's to good work, good friends, and all successes, past and future.
I admit - I came up with it before...

me neither, but i check the site every day
One of my friends from work came over earlier in the week. We'd planned a night of horror movies.
She had with her a graphic novel that I'd wanted to check out. As I was in the kitchen pouring some iced tea, she announced from the living room "I brought over Preludes and Nocturnes."
I emerged from the kitchen, with a very confused...

The Sandman rules. It is the only comic I ever followed. Some people mention it in the same breath as the Watchmen but I think they are sadly mistaken.
I recently got an ATI Radeon 9200, which I am quite enjoying. I'm sure you know this already, but Canada Computers in that area is one of the best, if not the best.

dholokov:
Yeah, the size and service of Canada Computers leave something to be desired.
As said above, the Watchmen is good but not as good as the Sandman. The comic book community thinks that its fabulous because it has superheroes who deal with each other in a mature, sophisticated manner, but I think that should be a starting point, not an end in itself. They way I usually put it is - people who really like comic books will like the Watchmen. Those who don't will like the Sandman.
...and it gets even better after preludes and noctures. the Doll's House is just creeeeepy.

I really need to get cable. Well, what I really need to do is start leaving the house more. But knowing my distaste for all things "outside" (there are, after all, bears outside), cable might be a more feasible option.
I also need to start writing more music again, but that's a different issue.
I've been bored this week. REALLY bored. This is hard to...

I ordered the parts for my new computer today.
I'm giddy.
I can't swing that $2000 soundcard I wanted.
But aside from that... this thing will be a beast and a half.
It's a good day to be a geek.
But I'm really bummed about the breakup lately.
You win some, you lose some, right?

Those were the darkest 22 hours of my life
Lying bastard!
And yeah, encounters with asshats will bring me out of a funk with the swiftness. I guess I should thank her
I made it out to Toronto yesterday, rescuing my guitar from the shop (which, after a rocky start to the process, came through delightfully). It's so wonderful to have it back again.
Most of my Toronto crew was otherwise engaged, so one of my friends offered to come along and co-pilot, and we were going to try make some SF Con that was going on...

Things are better today.
Most of the drama has cleared up.
I got too drunk last night. Sweet Jesus, why did I think that last round of Irish Car Bombs was a good idea?
Trips to Ikea make everything better. I haven't given my friend a firm answer on moving into his place yet, but the few pieces of furniture I picked up yesterday were...

Rounds of Irish car bombs are ALWAYS a good idea.
gigi:
Oh, what is an Irish Car Bomb? Sounds fun! 
God, I want an Ikea in FL. I can't wait until our trip to Atlanta so I can buy stuff at the Ikea there (I just won't allow myself to order online and pay shipping).
Hope you have a lovely weekend!!!

Oh boy! Everything's turning to shit again!!!
In other news, my landlord earned NO fucking points by letting me know he was showing my place this evening on forty fucking minutes' notice. So I ran up here, gave the place a panicked once over (I am Jack's messy apartment), and waited... and waited... and waited...
And nobody fucking showed. ARGH.
Oh, and then there was...

You should get in your car, drive to Toronto on a day when Dogslife and I are available, and we will make you feel better.
Count on it. *
*Actual satisfaction not guaranteed, but--c'mon, let's get real here--we're pretty damn fun.**
**Clarification: Dogslife is funny, I am fun.
