I drank a fair bit last night. The Capital mixes strong cocktails like woah. I'm watching the guy pour up my rum and Diets, and he's doing them half and half.
BobbyBeef got this great vegetarian cookbook for Xmas. Last night we made roasted veggies (zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes) with cheese and fresh basil. It's fucking delicious. I need to go to the grocery store...

1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Played some rock shows in my fabulous cover band. Sang in front of rooms full of drunk people on three separate occasions and they didn't even throw anything.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
No I did not keep them. I...

i dunno! i just noticed her account lapsed. hopefully she'll be back soon.
Me: Can I get a pint of Red please?
Bartender: Sure. Also there's a $3 cover for the [horrible reggae] band tonight. *points at pint glass with change in it*
Me: Okaaaay... so does that mean you're charging me that in addition to the [$4.50] beer? I don't have a lot of money and I'm just here for my friend's birthday.

Speaking of no lines...we've had crazy luck doing Christmas shopping. Everytime we go anywhere we get in line and there's only a couple people ahead of us, by the time we leave there's a line winding through the displays.....it's weird.
Today I realized that I have to go back to school, preferably university... even if they expect me to pay for it. I'm gonna try to go back to STU in the fall and take a year to finish my honours. I'll write a thesis, re-take advanced theory, and possibly some other classes for which I rightfully earned failing grades. This may include Heidegger. The...

yeah i haven't heard back from ankh yet... i just emailed her again to see what time, if any, is good for her.

Bluh, update.
I don't like my job much. My feet hurt all the effing time. And I'm always broke despite the fact that I work constantly. We fired somebody this week, so I didn't get a day off this week. I tried to entice ankh to come work with me, but no dice. Also if we don't hire somebody, like, tomorrow, I'm not getting a...

sorry i haven't gotten back to you about going out for coffee this weekend.... i've been dealing with major bullshit at work all weekend.
you know how i've been having problems with c, right? well... she went and opened one of my paystubs to see how much i was getting paid. she says it was already open, which is bs, because it's no where to be found. today i find out her mom has access to payroll, and was probably behind the entire thing. so c freaked out because i'm getting paid more than she is... and they're not even FIRING her for going through my fucking personal info. i have to wait to see what my manager talked to her about today after i left. my schedule got all switched around so i wouldn't have to work with her, because i'd fucking kill her. if i go in to work tomorrow and she hasn't quit or been fired, i'm quitting.
that's the jist of it. i'm so fucking livid right now it's not even funny. so i've been insanely stressed and upset since saturday about all of this. so who knows, i may be jobless as of tomorrow, which will be nice... especially if i can get the graphic design job after xmas. it'd be a well deserved break, and i'd have lots of time to go out for coffee!

I seriously don't know how it happened, but I got [nearly] everything I wanted for my birthday as listed in my previous entry:
* My folks and my Grandma each gave me $50... which I will likely spend on groceries and comfy shoes for work
* My folks also took me out for a good meal
* My band did not suck last night. There...

That is awesome, but your book is still better. Let me know how it is, cause it sounds really interesting. 
I cleaned out my wallet last night. I mostly found ATM receipts and expired coupons. These are now spread out on my desk around my keyboard and mousepad. I also found a set of receipts from the last time I had sushi. They charged me $1.50 for green tea, $2.75 for edamame, $14.95 for bento, and I gave Helene a $5 tip. That was in...
