Well, i know i promised pictures, but i've been lazy and tired all the time. Moving into a new apartment and setting things up the way you like and getting all the creature comforts isn't easy...but i'm sure most of you know that. Also, sorry i've been so uncommunicative lately, but i will post more for sure.

So I'm confused, are you just staying forever, or until it's stops being an enjoyable challenge?
roethke:
Thanks! Hopefully something will come of this second chance thingy and I'm not just drumming up attention for nought.

I know! A part of me had faith that they'd never leave Pittsburgh, but I was really nervous and a little bummed out anyway, before things finally got settled.
I wasn't really ready to stop being a Penguins fan, you know?

Bonjou mes amis! Au jourdhui, je suis en Toronto. C'est magnifique, mais il fait tres, tres froid. Ok, enough French (and only partly because i'm having trouble thinking of anything else to say 
)
Wow....Canada. Toronto is a mere hour away from Pittsburgh but it feels like it's lightyears.
Today, I went to the CN Tower, had a coffee and maple donut at Tim Hortons,...

Well, Christmas was okay this year. It's usually depressing seeing my basket-case sister, but from what my mom wasa telling me about her, i was expecting the crypt keeper to show up for presents. Instead, a Jerry Springer guest showed up. Thank god for small miracles? That said, seeing my nearly 2 year old niece was AMAZING!...

That Star Wars exhibit sounds all kinds of nifty.
I just had to deal with the presents vs. clothing dilemma myself, I'm flying home tomorrow. I ended up dedicating an entire suitcase to stuff for other people
Have a safe flight and a great trip!

Doctors, Oil Heaters and Plasma Screens
So i went to the Doctor's office last Friday to get a number of things checked out. It turns out i have two compressed vertebrate in my back (i think that's the term) and that's why my feet get a little numb when i'm running/working out. I also got some other medication and some tests done. All for $83...

So, ideally, i'd like to meet a cute veggie, geeky girl. We'd have kids with names like James T. Vader or O'Hura Leigha or Jean Luke Chewbacca or Han Solo Spock or "Bones" Bobofet. And they'd be tough enough to own the names and not get beat up for it. Me and this imaginery girl would quote Monty Python to each other while cooking wonderful...

Thanks for the congrats! It really was a Pip way of doing things
And yes, kwizzle did miss the best part, but that just adds to the humor of the evening.

No, I don't really say "bahhhh," unless it's in the vein of gentle mockery. I'm from Oklahoma, y'all.
I must meet the tallness someday. I should also probably see that movie!

Awww, look at all the friends you already have! And I left all my format as the default as well.
(Speaking of profiles and formats ... what were they thinking here?!? It's like a nightmare wrapped in a plague surrounded by a headache! I'm going to wait a couple days before updating my info, in the hopes they restore Profile Classic.)
Data entry has fried my brain for the day. I think I'm going to go make collages and necklaces now. Maybe watch some of the teevee. Yeep.

So this Tuesday, my brother comes for a visit!!!! I'm so excited. IT's not nearly enough time here (only 4 days) but it's awesome to have something to look forward to here. Isn't it great that i have a brother willinng to spend the money to come out here for such a short time (all he could manage off)? He's the person i'm closest too...

But they've got nothing on the metatarsals! Thanks for the comment, by the way.
If you come to AZ, let me know and I will hook you up with the best food in town.

Heh. I don't think punching, in general, leaves the best impression on job interviews.
If I get desperate, though .... I'll try anything to get a job, by god.
If ever you make it to Boston, we will take a Sunday brewery tour. And it will be an awesome damn time.
