Today I went for a walk over to McDonald's to get an ice cream cone. On my way there, walking through the park, some dude approached me and asked me for change. I said sorry, but I had no change on me. This was complete truth, since I'd only brought my debit card. He said "not even a dollar?" and I said sorry again, and that all I had was my ( Read more... )

As I just said on Facebook and Twitter, I just finished sending my application for the job at UW. I also fired an e-mail off to Fitz asking her if she'd be a reference, if I get an interview. Like I said, not getting my hopes up too high, but still hopeful that something comes of this. Aside from the previously noted suckage, this is really an ( Read more... )

• 07:16 Had a nice weekend with my lady. Watched a few movies (My Sister's Keeper in theatre, Duets and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist at home). #

Got a call today to go to Brantford and work for the day on Wednesday, with Thursday a possibility. It makes sense, since I'm guessing there's a big order with a looming deadline, and with the Holiday on Wednesday nobody will be in. Plus, it's cheaper to pay me (since I don't get overtime pay) than to have someone come in on the Holiday. So I'm ( Read more... )

• 13:06 I forgot one other thing that Mary Murphy does: Laugh. The loud witch-like cackling. #
• 13:37 Half of the iTunes Top 100 is MJ or the 5. Not at all surprised, but it's still kind of crazy. Too bad he hasn't bumped Katy Perry. #

• 11:42 I figure it'll be at most a year, and quite possibly even before this Christmas, that we see a Michael Jackson tribute album on the shelves. #
• 17:29 Minor "oops" with my beard trimmer. Now it's not so much a beard as it is stubble. Good thing it'll grow back. #

• 09:15 Woke up to dog barking and a cold room. 73-74F is nice, and more than enough. 71 is excessive. Especially when 71 is "too cold" in winter. #
• 11:33 Hail in B-Town. #
• 12:44 My love is hurting, and so too am I. The clouds cry with us. #

• 13:12 Up early for puppy duty. Fell asleep on the couch watching Tropic Thunder. Don't feel like I really missed a whole lot. #
• 19:59 My Facebook highlights are happily free of TMI at the moment. #
• 20:00 But for reference, as it was with "Rough Sex" a little while back I also don't really need to know that you're a fan of "Sleeping Naked." #

• 15:22 So it turns out my room is also pretty good at keeping cool air in. I'll take fridgey over furnacey. #
• 16:33 Thanks to @wilw for reminding me that I wanted to see #Leverage. Only a few episodes in to Season 1 and already looking forward to Season 2. #

Sunday morning (technically afternoon), after spending all day Saturday working to execute a BBQ/Birthday party/Karaoke night here at the house - a party which went very well and had my mom suggesting that we should have a party planning company - Mel and I were out on the patio in the back yard eating breakfast (technically brunch). The dogs, ( Read more... )
