Sorry Journal I forgot about you slash I had more important things. No that's a lie
Yeah, yeah, I know all of you internauts are like 'hey where'd that tool Nick go' and this tool says screw you.
Cause I'm a screwdriver.
*rimshot*
Anyway onwards. Things happening in my life right now you ask? Why sure I will mention some of them.
1. JOB ACTIONSAUCE
Alright, ladies and gents I'm working construction. It is alternately hot and wet and it is in generally obscenely boring. That being said, I am very much enjoying it, and am almost certainly making it into more of a learning and spiritual experience than it actually is. I'm making thematic and physical comparaisons of the building coming up to the growing of some kind of inside out organic plant. This sounds stupid, but listen. When people/animals/plants grow, they do so from the outside in (skin, muscles/nerves, then bones). Buildings, however, do not. They need a foundation, first, then you pour gravel then sand on that. Then you make whatever markings you'll need and pour the concrete. From there, you start building walls. That's the skeleton. Then when the walls are finished, they drill THROUGH the walls to put plumbing/cables (nerves/veins). From there they magically put on insulations wooden frames and drywall (we aren't there yet so it's magic). But yeah, technological plants. Too bad we don't have any real ones.
2. BONFIRE AWESOMENESS
Yesterday, I went to a bonfire in Mississauga to see my Guelph friends. It was fantastic. We roasted meats over the fire, and then we roasted chocolates. And we ate them, of course. It was super to see everyone from Guelph again, and just talk about life and love. It was also notable in that it was the first time I drove on the highway 'by myself' (I was driving my friends Alex and Danielle up so technically it wasn't by myself, but I meant my parents) I'm no longer scared of highways now, cause I drove today in pouring rain without being concerned or crashing. I am today a MAN. Also we went to Cora's for breakfast and it was tasty. I had spinach and Brie omelette. It was good.
3. Finger! OW!
On the way out to Missiisisisisissi, I was in a rush, so before I left I slammed my finger in a door. CHOMP, the tip of my finger came off, and it bled. But I had to leave so I just bandaided it. WELL it turns out it needed stitches. But I went to Mississipi instead of the hospital so now I just have a disfiguring painful fingerscar forever. But on the upside, I only have 9 fingerprints, and we know that nine is lucky. OR WE SHOULD KNOW THAT. CAUSE NINE IS LUCKY.
4. MOVIE REVIEWS
The DaVinci code: Mediocre and decently adapted to the book. Which was mediocre. But some people in the audience liked it so I assume I am just jaded.
Rush Hour 2: It was on tonight. It's super racist but funny. WHO KNEW.
5. Love life (don't read past here if you're a spy >:|)
It's inactive at the moment, but some interesting things appear to be on the horizon, so I'll keep you updated. Ha no I won't, if you want to know, ask and maybe you'll luck out.
Oh and I'm conversant with Deirdre now, but we're literally just being platonic. It's boring but hey, whatever, at least it doesn't hurt as much anymore. Least not compared to my ex-finger.
