It's the end of a decade for me.  Sunday the 1st is my last shift at Bay St. Video.  It's been great there and I'll miss it, but it's also kind of exciting.  From that point on I'll be able to work at CAMH on Tuesdays, which means I'll have Friday, Saturday and Sundays off.  Of course I have the job writing fact sheets for Rainbow Health Ontario, ( Read more... )

Brittany Murphy died yesterday.  She was the heroine of one of my favourite horror movies, Cherry Falls.  She was also fun in Drop dead Gorgeous.  Despite not bothering to see more than two of her films I liked her.  She was hot. And 32 seems rather young to die, from my 36 year old perspective.  Bummer ( Read more... )

I'm slowly replacing my stuff.  Yesterday i got a new ipod.  It's got four times the amount of space as my previous ipod, which kind of freaks me out.  My Canadian Tire Mastercard arrived and I have my public library card and my temporary royal card.  I bought a cigarette case to use as my new wallet.  I've replaced my stolen comb, keys, change ( Read more... )

I went to a Jewish christmas party last night and had a great time. I always do have fun with Lori. They had way too much food. Our host fell asleep upstairs several hours before the party ended. I had to wait for my drive to sober up before I could go home. Yet Lori and I managed to keep the party alive. We rock. I discovered so much about me ( Read more... )

Happy xmas, people.

I finally finished the oil panting well enough that it can be shown, wet, to mr_pugh in a "here's the present, don't touch it" kind of way. I'm pleased with that. For a first painting, it's ok ( Read more... )

Our building is choosing now to do it's fire alarm testing for the month. It's 9:30 a.m.

I finally slept well. My dream featured people I don't know, plots involving someone making a Frankenstein monster, and the senior prom. Very weird.

Last night I looked at the clock and it says 12:20, so I think, "good, Mr_pugh will be home any minute." He ( Read more... )

Well, today at work was CRAZY! Shop much, people? I actually became dizzy from the constant motion of reaching, bending, turning, etc. to get dvds. Someone out there is getting a whole shitload of dvds for xmas. On a happy note, I sold the most expensive thing in the store. It was the Sharpe's Rifles megaset, at apox. $299.00 ( Read more... )

Well, It's xmas and I'd like to get him something that he's not expecting, and something that is a little unusual. So I thought I'd give oil painting a shot. I bought some oil paints, but I really have no clue where to go from here. So I've bee surfing websites and trying to get the basics so I'll know what to do and what I need to do it. Tips ( Read more... )

Well tonight I learned that the german course we're taking isn't eqivalent to G10. That came as a disappointing surprise to many of my classmates, as it did to me. I'm not sure what this means in terms of my plans for the new year. Arg. Changing timetables makes me grouchy ( Read more... )
