Things I Learned While Playing a Corpse

Tonight I played a corpse for a government funded public safety campaign. I had to sit in front of a mall in a lawn chair for three hours while people from a local radio station handed out flyers and free mints. Here are some things I learned.

Law & Order has been cancelled?!?! But that show is like... uncancelable! For shame.

(I don't have a TV so it takes me a while to catch up with these things.)

Hey sports fans. Why do you cheer for your team? What made them your team?

I was born in northern Alberta in 1983. If you lived north of Red Deer in the 80s there was only one hockey team. They were the Edmonton Oilers. My first memories of hockey are of Wayne Gretzky and Stanley Cups. My dad is an Oilers fan. My mom is...

Sports?

I grew up watching boxing. My father loved boxing. Every afternoon he'd fall asleep watching boxing while watching me. My mother thought it was too violent which made it all the more appealing.

We also grew up in a house with lots of classic WWF/Stampede Wrestling. I loved it, especially in the early days with the female Japanese-style wrestler. I eventually grew out of the wrestling, but not out of the spectacle.

I think that's why I've always been a fan of combat sports. It's why I love martial arts, but hate martial art films, and it's why I find two men beating each other up entertaining.

That makes me ever the more glad I did write it.

It makes it feel like waking up at 7 on a Saturday wasn't a complete waste. smile

Whenever I feel filthy and awful, I've found drinking a gallon of orange juice and then immeditaly swilling mouthwash in the shower makes me feel better for entire minutes. I hope you find a solution that works for you.

Almost another month again... I'm sure you're all on the edge of your seats wondering what I've been up to. Or not.

The Olympics are over so I have nothing worth watching during the day any more. Two weeks of non-stop sports really spoiled me. Canada breaks Olympic records for most gold medals won at a winter games and most gold medals won by a...

So... it's been almost a month. Guess I could update. Not that I really have anything new to say.

Dickbag co-worker (see last entry) quit. So that's nice. I still wish him nothing but suffering and herpes. But herpes would require him to have sex and I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone. Work continues to suck but I have an interview with Calgary Transit...

1) He's a Canucks fan.
2) Hes' the kind of Canucks fan who thinks his team, city and fellow fans are made from pure fucking gold and incapable of any wrong even though they are often obnoxious assholes.
3) Is a proud Harper voter. For my American friends, he is the weak cup...

Clearly you need pounce-proof crotch-fortified pajamas.

It's the only way.

Dude, I never meant to insult your homeland the other night when I was being a disasterous asshat, I was refring to Now America.
I was so messed up that I could hardly see this tiny notebook's screen, I had no idea that you were from Canada.
So for that I must apologise.
As for the self destructive behavior on the boards, I'll just take whatever shreading I get, I desrve it, for letting myself interface with humanity whilst I was at a total lose for my humanity.

I have consumed almost half a bottle of wine. We have just started watching Twilight. This is going to be... fucking awful.

Thirty second impression: holy shit is Bella ever fucking whiny. Also, this movie is lit in a very strange, offputting way. The colour is... off.

Why oh why do we live in cold areas? I think everyone should have their own personal perfect temperature bubble.
