Two weeks from now, I'll be sitting in Vancouver. It's my first vacation in three years and I could not be more excited. There are going to be museums, good food, drinking, karaoke and, most likely, my first tattoo since I was 19.
Work has been slowly driving me into the ground but the promise of time off has helped me get through the last...

Hello freakyp! <3

Thanks man, the things you end up doing when you are hanging alone hey! Ha. xx Good to see you. 
It's time for my monthly check-in so that you know I haven't died.
There's really nothing exciting going down here. I spend most of my time watching TV or reading. If you're looking for good books, I would highly recommend anything by Christopher Brookmyre. The audiobooks are incredibly good.
I've also spent a decent amount of time having pointless internet fights with friends of friends...

Awesome that you'll be in Van!
I should be back in late June but not 100% sure on the dates yet.

Two months and I don't have a lot to report. The theatre company I work with put on an adaptation of Alice in Wonderland that went very well. It was a shitload of work and a lot of stress but I'm pretty happy with how things turned out.
Work has been busy as hell lately. We had a ton of truck problems which meant a...

There's nothing like having everything at work dumped on your lap, eh?
I am also grateful for the internet. Not so much for hockey, though.

I wish I knew! I've spent far too many nights lately watching the game and just doing facepalm after facepalm. Haha.

Here's a chaser.

At least 40,000 of those are probably anti-Leafs posts.
With a few exceptions (largely cat and hockey related) this year was a lot of shit from open to close. I'm going to go fill myself with rye and hope for the best. Or Ragnarok. Whichever is more convenient.

I absoluely agree with your sentiment (and the other comments left here). I really think we're due for a good year on all fronts...
zenfish:
I have to follow my gut on this one.
Spent the day (mostly) in bed with a fucked up knee. It locked up while I was walking around my apartment and now I'm a limping mess.

well, i would say that there are times that are more convenient than others, though probably not entirely convenient, ever. no. 
coyotemike:
Seems that way.
Sitting at home watching TV until the Oilers game starts. I drove up to Edmonton yesterday to spend some time with old friends and watch the Grey Cup. It was nice to see everyone and it was totally worth almost being blown off the highway by the ridiculous wind that swept through Calgary. I picked a good day to be away. The wind ripped some...

It gets colder, the sun changes angles, the days are shorter, sometimes it's really dry and sometimes it rains for months. It's not the weather, it's just the shorter days and weird weak sunlight that bug me. I hesitate to diagnose myself but it's not impossible that I have seasonal affective disorder.

It's at UBC! It's really amazing, and one of the most beautiful museums I've seen (:
I have nothing worthwhile to say so listen to this:

Oh, I don't think that anyone would think less of me, FP. It's just been very hard for me to find a constructive outlet for all of this...
lemonkid:
Are you planning on being murdered anytime soon? Any leads so I know who to go all Death Wish on?
I think a lot of people are having a lot more fun with their lives than I am. Not that mine is terrible. It's just not really what I expected.

i'm pretty sure that life is never, ever what you expect it to be.
keith:
Yeah my main concern was actually that none of the vehicles trying to pull me out should get stuck themselves. That's why I bought 200 feet of cable to try to get them far enough back to be on dry land. But we couldn't make strong enough connections between the chains and cables and they kept breaking when stressed.
A lot has gone on in the last month since I posted. Little of it is worth mentioning.
Tonight I drank a lot of soju and went to karaoke. Drank enough to belt out "Time After Time". Happy fucking birthday to me.

happy birthday!

Thanks man. Pretty awful stuff all around. I guess I'll do my best to learn from it. Still it's a hell of a shocking thing to know someone for the length of time I knew her and find out she's a complete fraud.
