I'm going to head down to the Army & Navy soon to get some crazy bingo prizes. My favorite thing last year were the Elvis movie playing cards, those are timeless classics. So far this year about 30 people are coming to our house and that'll be awesome. I can't imagine hosting a dinner like that here because there is absolutely no street parking ( Read more... )

I'm in! Downtown apartment with a fab view of hundreds of windows of other apartments. I like to call it 'people watching' as an activity rather than being a peeping weirdo pervert. I can see one patchy set of Christmas lights up already. I'm not sure if I can set them up here, I think my power outlet is going to explode from all this computer ( Read more... )

So this is fab, I'm just packing boxes so I can be all ready to move in 4 days. I can't wait to live downtown again, there's all those dumpsters and alleys and really old houses I love so much. While I'm packing I've found all this old crap I completely forgot I had. An I Mother Earth cd, a broken blender, a bunch of German religious records and ( Read more... )

I switched stations again, this time to North Van and it looks so nice and sparkly. I'm excited though, because I'm back on the morning shift and that's my favorite, even though for the life of me I could never get up any earlier than noon when I was on the afternoon shift. I have to go to bed at 8pm, but at least I won't be checking my watch ( Read more... )

So I finished my Velma costume, but it turns out I missed the big radio station bowling party. Arrrrg, so now I'm really just left with a nerdy costume to walk around in by myself, up and down the street. How is this different from everyday, exactly? Work is exciting though, I finally got a route of my own for a while so things don't change too ( Read more... )

Thank god for days off, I'm so glad I can cram a life into my weekends, although this week has been pretty good because I'm only working in the mornings. Next week I get transfered to Vancouver, which will be awesome because everyone loves Vancouver. Except if you're the Skipper, cause then you'll have an extra bum lounging around your apartment ( Read more... )

Don't you hate it when all you do is get up and go to work and then come home after work and sleep until work starts again? I feel like I'm losing my grip on having an interesting life and sliding into this horrible cycle. And then I watched 'Shaun of the Dead' with the Skipper and it all made sense! That was seriously the funniest movie I've ( Read more... )

Oh that was so cool! I just got back from the Eternal Egypt exhibit in Victoria and it was pretty amazing, I mean I didn't even notice that they hardly had any gold stuff on display. I took a day trip with the Captain and Tenille, starting with a really busy ferry ride from Tawassen over to Victoria. We made the mistake of buying the sunshine ( Read more... )

7:05pm, time for bed! I'll bust the curfew just this once, because I got paid! My first real real paycheck and I went out and bought lots of clothes to start off with. Shoes, music, student loan payments and a digital camera/webcam are next on the list. On the weekend I'm going to Egypt! Well the Eternal Egypt exhibit in Victoria and I'm so ( Read more... )
