A small update since there really hasn't been much going on. Renovations on the front apartment are underway again, the walls are mostly painted and we picked up the ceramic tiles for the kitchen and bathroom today. They were really heavy =_= I was really afraid I was going to drop the case and break all the tiles inside while carrying them in.

Upgraded my LJ account to paid (well, it's only $20 a year....) but I didn't get the userpic expansion cause I'll never be able to fill up 100 userpics (Minji can xD). Will be learning how to play around with my profile sometime, not for awhile ( Read more... )

WARNING - EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS POST ASIDE FROM THE VOCALOID CUT MAY BE DEPRESSINGI really wanted to make a nice New Years post, I really did, but it doesn't seem that will be happening. Since reopening the restaurant, I've not only had to talk to many people about my father's passing (which is still a difficult subject to talk about), but I've ( Read more... )

Exciting last few days, Minji and Hime went to see the torch run in Kitchener and stayed the night at my house to see it the next day in Guelph. I ended up missing it while it was in Kitchener, but got to see it fairly closely in Guelph. As a bonus, I didn't have any protester run-ins (others, not so lucky). I've heard and read about some of the on ( Read more... )

This post will be split into two as I started typing it while closing the store...Christmas is finally over, it was fun but extremely exhausting. We didn't end up finishing cleaning up until probably about 1am. =_= Plus I had to work at 9:30am the next day (today). I think I made a lot of people feel guilty about not getting me presents (haha) but ( Read more... )

So I'm working on a list of manga and video games (by system) I own since Craig asked me about it awhile ago. xD Makes gift giving easier I guess (If you intend to get me a video game at least lol). The list won't be finished until sometime in January most likely since I have to make a take-out menu (>> I'll do it perfectly once, but if someone ( Read more... )

The last week has been INSANE (more so for my mom than me but still =_=). The opening was a bit of a mess and apparently yesterday (I missed the rush since I was working somewhere else at the time) was a mess as well. I can only hope today is okay so far since I won't be there until shortly after 5pm (I'm working at my other job right now). The ( Read more... )

With the overwhelmingly large change in minjii's userpics recently, I figured it's about time I overhauled mine as well. I'm sure you noticed I thematically choose the new ones (all Luka lol) but I originally wasn't going to do that. I've begun to like using same-character ones due to NA so it's kind of influenced these ones. I edited most of them ( Read more... )

This time I lost my other window well cover =_= We managed to get it back but with the heavy snowfall, there's no way to put it back on (the window is completely covered. At least it's the small window and not the one that's supposed to be for a fire escape ( Read more... )

The 2nd part of the Synchonicity series is out! It's so pretty, I can't wait for more. I have a few theories about what will happen (since I haven't read the novel) but I'm sure things will likely take another twist. The only upsetting thing is....Luka is such a jerk in it! D: I mean, I can rationalize her actions in my mind but she's still ( Read more... )
