No luck with the wallet yet. Not sure why it hasn't turned up yet. I blame it on the lack of nice people, and the overabundance of stupid people. Since I was the one that lost the wallet due to a widened hole in my pockets... well... guess where I fall under?

I cancelled my credit card and i'm replacing my ATM card today. My...

Hey thanks for responding to my posting. It's kind of funny - my mom never minded me roleplaying, but she "forbid" me to play D&D. So, instead, I started playing Vampire the Masquerade. Kind of ironic. I've been playing that game since I was 16. Anyway, thanks for the input. I'm trying to dispell the myths/stereotypes. Of course, they exist for a reason, but sometimes I get sick of people laughing as soon as I tell them that I can't go out because I have plans to stay in and roleplay. Oh - and it could always be worse than being a janitor. You could be waiting tables at a theme restaurant. Of course, I'm sure the grass is always greener on the other side.

You know what, i'm in such a sour mood that I don't even want to think of a title.

I shalt itinerate my entire week. Here goes:

For the first events, I had to put up with my co-workers for an entire week. For some odd reason, two of the co-workers are having a war of words, and lucky me, being the neutral party, is...

you know, i hope you don't take anything that i say in the west group about politics or the election personally. i think it's great that there are people here with educated opinions about canadian politics and are willing to respect others with their views differ.

i can always apreciate the need to vent. just see my journal entry previous to this one.

i hope we can meet up and vent the political shit together when i am in cowtown this weekend. there should be something about a meet up in the west group soon.

Title: Castle of Breadcrumbs

You know, I was starting to get used to this life.

I had a job. Not a good job. Not one I enjoyed. Low pay, but it was enough for me to get by with a little bit extra. I had some friends, not much of a social life beyond D&D with the boyos, my computer which is my lifeline and...

Title: Four Eyes

Last week, I ordered new glasses. I took advantage of a two for one deal, and while I was at it I got special lenses with decent scratch resistance. Mulex, they're called.

The first pair is the usual geeky, thin rimmed choice, and they come with sunglass clips. Much easier on my eyes, but I couldn't afford polarization.

The second pair i'm...

Hiyo! Welcome back, SG'ers!

As you can tell, i'm in a more chipper mood than usual. Praytell, what could possibly do that to me?

Well, it was payday, but most of that is gone towards bills and food. Most of my GST cheque is gone, but thats ok because useful things, as well as a few guilty indulgences, were purchased....

Title: Week in Heck

I must admit, I am feeling a little let down by the world.

Much sickness and mayhem in the Middle East. People killing each other. Canada not doing sh*t to stop the entire mess (just when we were supposed to be peacemakers...). And both sides committing atrocities. How sad.

But hey, i'm a bit self centered. The world can go to...

Dude...I've been where you are...I've come to the conclusion that the world is fucked and there is not a damn thing you or I can do about it!
I've posted shit on this site about rallies touring across Canada & most of the posts were negative comments..I figured most of the people here would be against Multi-National corporations running the world, but no...Everyone seems to not mind that Wal-Mart is destroying the world!!
The only way you can change shit is if you are the CEO of Starbucks or the Gap...it's fucked!
Just be yourself, do what makes YOU happy & screw the rest!
Anyway, I see you might be into swords...A friend of mine makes knives..you should check his website

ok, I'm listening. Prove to me that God and Jesus exist. WITHOUT using the bible, because that's circular logic, and you know it. tongue wink

Also, Van Helsing: I didn't see your post until the next day. Try giving us some more warning than "tonight" and you've got to keep in mind that most of us were friends before sg. So it's not like we have a select group of people we'll only hang out with. It's just that we've been hanging out for years. smile

Title: I can quit any time I want too...

I'm a Final Fantasy addict. Not just any kind, but an old school addict. It all started when I was a young lad, and my brother borrowed a copy of Final Fantasy IV (then, it was called Final Fantasy II, because for some reason Square decided to shortchange use North Americans when it came to new...

all i do is play video games and exalted... biggrin

Title: Project Alpha Male

Now that I finally have some money, I will do something that I haven't done in a long time.

Get some clothes. Real clothes. Handsome clothes. Clothes that make me look like a man, not a nerd.

While I'm at it, i'm going to get a haircut. Not a ten dollar buzzcut, but a real haircut, one that gets attention.

And...

Title: Observe!

I had a fun time with the other SG members last Saturday night. Not that much drunken hooliganry, but I had a great time.

(BTW, I don't drink.)

It was quite an adventure to get there. Quite an adventure to get back. And an adventure just to stay. In what was to be a not so bright idea, I thought that if I...

I live right there and the zombies were lined up for weeks and weeks crowding around screaming for them, it was sooo frightening. Finally a month later I decide to go just to see what the fk is up with all these people and I take one bite and feel sick for the rest of the day. I hate that place and will NEVER go back.

Wow...

That was one hell of a psychotic episode.

Once again, I cracked up. Usually, i'm in control, but every once in awhile something sets it off, and I either become angry then depressed, or just plain depressed.

To answer some inquiries involving a few posts on my journal:

Title: Maybe it Wasn't My Last Rant...

I am Lord_Shade.

In real life, I am a simple janitor (I do not use such PC words as 'Custodian' or 'Sanitation Engineer', for they are words merely meant to make 'Janitor' sound respectable.). Quiet, but sometimes the leader when i'm roused out of disinterest.

On the internet, I am Lord_Shade, or Pariah, or D-Rock, or whatever suits...

warning, non-solicited advice from the internet masses:

sometimes the hardest thing to do is stop defining yourself by what others think about you, and start defining yourself by what you think about you. you are the one with the power to control your thoughts about yourself, about your life, about your future. i'm not going to say it's anything but fucking hard, but it is worth the effort in the end to know that your opinion matters first, everyone else a close (or sometimes distant) second.

i went back and read your previous journal. the thing about school is not what (or where) it gets you when you are finished, but what you got out of it when you are in there. a chance to experience new social situations, a chance to interact with people that are at a higher likelyhood to have similiar interests as you, an opportunity to take risks, fail, and go again. sometimes, i have to wonder about why i'm getting myself 20 grand in debt for a program that disappoints me in many ways academically, but i look at what i'm getting out of the program otherwise. a chance to move halfway across the country to the largest city in canada. i seek out profs that know their shit, and pick their brains for as long as they will let me. i end almost every conversation with, 'so do you know of anyone i could send my portfolio to?' if school doesn't get my anywhere, it's because i didn't put enough effort into it, and i have no one to blame but myself.

but like i was saying, this is just un-solicited advice from the masses on the internet. take with a grain of salt, or not at all.
