It was forty six weeks ago that I last updated my livejournal. Forty six weeks ago, I was friends with Kazz and Riel, I was dating Melissa, and I had just bought my first gun. Forty six weeks ago I was unemployed, living in my mom's basement, and was not doing anything productive with life. Forty six weeks ago I had only known Tara for a month or ( Read more... )

So, I bought a rifle. It was a christmas gift from my dad that I bought early. I went to all the different gun stores in town, of which apparently there are three. I was looking for a .22, specifically a bolt action with a detachable magazine, it wasn't hard to find one. They had a bunch of new and used ones between two shops, and they varied in ( Read more... )

I totally forgot to update. A couple weeks after my Unrestricted, I did my Restricted course. It was more of the same, I did excellent on the written and pratical tests. Fast forward a month and I had the stamps on both test results back to me. I got Melissa and Paul to be my refrences, got my passport photo done, made up a money order for $140, ( Read more... )

An update, hmm. I did my Canadian Firearms Safety course over the weekend. 9-5 on saturday and sunday, and man was it boring. There were a lot of people, and it was mostly common sense stuff, however I did learn a lot, and there were 10 deactivated guns for us to learn how to handle. It was the unrestricted course, meaning rifles and shotguns and I ( Read more... )

It's my birthday on the 6th, but I'm working midnights. However I do have the 9th off, so I'm going to do a dinner thing with people, if they so please. If you'd like to go somewhere nice to eat, and possibly to see a movie afterwards, give me a shout on MSN or whatever.

What a day. Night? To be breif, I got into my locker at work with a sledgehammer, and had my lunch stolen 15 minutes into the day. Before I even started to work. Grr. As a result, I had my first Mcdonalds hamburger in twelve years, and they're just as bland as I remember.

However, for a screwy as they are, the midnight shift is cool if only for the ( Read more... )

As of about an hour ago, my uncle Bill died of esophageal cancer after nearly three years of fighting. His last wishes were to be cremated and have his ashes scattered over Lake Superior. He surrounded by family, except for me, in Vancouver.

Rest In Peace, Willhem Egle.

It's nice to actually have something to say for once. I hadn't really noticed, but looking back there's been a steady upwards trend in my life. I'm dealing with stuff and slowing pulling myself out the hole I was in. Things are getting better, and it's nice ( Read more... )

I can't sleep, that's no suprise. So I'm browsing the Something Awful forums, and I come across this. I have never giggled so hard in my life at something. It's probably the sleep deprivation or the massive depression, but either way, this is loving funny and absolutely true.

what a fucking joke.
