So October has been progressing normally. Have begun to read again, slowly, ignoring the guilt I feel for not spending the time doing school work.

Goddammit, my internet is pissing me off! All week, whenever I've come up to my room there has been a 50/50 chance it's not working. Something's amiss with the wireless... half the time it can't find my house's wireless network. I've been picking up on a neighbour's, but it's so weak I can't use it. Le sigh ( Read more... )

I've gotten a lot of swag recently, mostly to do with TIFF (T.O film fest). Mike and I went to pick up our volunteer t-shirts (men's sizes, unfortunately), and got an extra tote bag full of goodies: full-size TIFF poster, coupons, contests to enter, 5$ Starbucks card (try the pumpkin spice lattes, mmmm) VW tattoo, Sobe energy drink, random bracelet ( Read more... )
