I think I'll head to the newsstand tomorrow and pick up some interesting looking magazines. I will make sure that they are ones I've never read before. Maybe they'll be obscure architectural magazines, maybe they'll be political rags, or maybe they'll be trashy tabloids. I don't necessarily care what they're about, as long as they catch my interest. Maybe I'll learn something new, about a...

Yesterday, my car broke down. As a result, I didn't go to work, which meant that I spent the day laughing my ass off at the city of Boston. I mean, come on. Wires and batteries are sinister? Shit, I guess my fucking alarm clock is pretty sinister then. I'd better call the bomb squad...there are a lot of things in my apartment that...

I've been really wanting a pet, lately. Specifically, I'd like a dog. A big ol' mutt, like the first dog I ever knew. The old family dog, Buddy. He was a mutt we rescued (as a puppy) from the SPCA (now called the Edmonton Humane Society).

He was huge, but friendly. He was surprisingly gentle. He was an interesting dog in that he would...

I have been away for much too long. Not that I've been away from SG, I just haven't been posting on this blog at all lately. Apparently, it's been more than a month. I really need to start using this thing more, and getting into the community so that I can discover cool things about music and art and whatnot.

Lately, I have felt the...

Friday. Friday is the day. At least, I plan on it being the day. Really, I won't know if it's the day or not until the day is over and I either have, or have not, asked the question. It's somewhat unpredictable, this sort of thing. I mean, yeah, there is no "perfect" moment, but there is still a "right" moment. Or, at least, there...

I was going to do the unthinkable yesterday. I was planning on entrapping myself in matrimony. Yes, I was going to ask Le Girl to marry me. But then...I didn't. "THE MOMENT" never happened. See, I was waiting for some kind of magical, "perfect," moment, and there wasn't one. I proceeded to act like a jackass for the rest of the night because I was...

Ashley is now officially moved in. She has really been living here since Thursday night (like usual, she came over after her class and spent the weekend), but we didn't finish moving her stuff in until this afternoon. Now, the spare bedroom/computer room is full of clutter. Boxes and stuff.

The bedroom is a bit cluttered, as well, but not too badly. Though, some of...

I am, in fact, still alive and active, despite having not posted a blog entry in weeks.

Poetry festival, work, and the still relatively new relationship have been kicking my ass (in a good way, mostly). I applied for a new job--it's a copy editting thing at a local publishing company. I felt confident last week. Less confident this week, but I should know...

I am alive. I am in the new place. It is big and awesome and I love it.

Also, Sash's new set is fucking fantastic.

I got approved for the new place the other day. I dropped off my damage deposit, and the landlady is letting me move in early. I can move in on the 22nd of this month. Awesome!
