So, I have not updated in a bit, so hee goes.
I am done school for the summer as of this friday. (Woot!) Two months off, and then I am doubling my effort into school. I will bring my GPA up if it kills me.
Also, I have been getting up every morning at 5am since last tuesday. Tonight, I have decided to have a few beers at a friends house and relax for an evening.
So, that should be nice.
Mike won't be coming with me, since he is not feeling well and did not have a good day.
Also, mike and I are doing quite well, trying to work out all the details regarding what we are going to be doing come this fall, should he end up going into the army.
We also both have decided to start eating healthier and at more appropriate hours of the day. He wants to lose some weight, and i wanna go down to as low a weight as possible. (I am currently weighing in at 276 lbs, according to my Dr.) I would like to weigh around 220, at th emost at this point. So we will see how that works.
We started by buying a lot more vegetables and are going to stop eating out as much.
Well, I am going to go and get ready to go out.
Maybe I will actually start updating more often.

So here I am...what? a few months later?
WHats been going on in my life? Well, I fucked up this semester in school, failing two of three courses. I am retaking them and intro accounting in summer session, so far two of three are ok, fucked up on the accounting midterm, but I am redoubling efforts for the final to try to pull off something amazing for a mark (I have done it before).
Mike is still looking inot joining the nav, or army or something. If he gets in, I will be joining him somewhere in Ontario at about this time next year possibly.
In other news, me and Michael may be having another roommate soon, once we hear the final verdict from kayla. In any event, we will be looking into moving uptown to be closer to work and make it less of a trip for me getting to school.
Work wise, I am a wreck. I am working monday to friday 615 am until 230 pm, then following with classes on mondays and wednesdays from 7-9 and tuesdays and thursdays from 5-9. I have no money and no life. I don't really go out anymore, and when I do, I tend to want it to get over with so I can go home or go to bed or something. It is stupid, but thems the breaks.
Anyway, thats all I really have to say. At the moment anyway.
Hopefully I will be able to write more in a day or so.
Maybe I will have a several page rant about work and all the bullshit that goes on there...or maybe not. Anyways,
Later

Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

So, what else is new in my life...
Not a whole lot. School is almost over, but thats fine, since I was not in the mindset to be there really this year..I am still trying, and I am hoping I succeed enough to at least continue, or try my courses again at the very least...
Work blows, but that is the same whereever you work.
Mike is thinking of joining the Navy, which means I will be alone for almost a full school year, which makes me kinda sad, but, once he is posted we would be together again, which makes me happy.
I went and visited Fredericton last weekend, which was fun...in a rushed, only-have-one-night-to-do-anything sorta way...I am hoping enough people stick around there or come back next year....I do miss ALL of you guys, and I am sorry that everytime I come up, I seem to only have enough time for one or two people.
Though, Kayla has informed me that I have a free trip sometime soon (after classes) from her mom. That is awesome.
Anyways, I am off to watch lost and do some sewing...
Maybe I will even start writing more..

I am such a fuck up

2006-03-02T22:14:00.000-04:00

So, me and Mike HAD been doing better, until I fucked things up again tonight.
I read his e-mail..why I do not know, paranoia I guess, and found out that a friend of his, whom he was contemplating moving in with in frdericton has found a potential place for them...which is not a big deal, except that I was under the impression that he was not looking. Which made me mad and hurt...so I confronted him...
we talked and needless to say, I am now very upset as I have hurt him, but, I am still lost as to what is happening...I want to trust him, I do for most things, but it still seems like I am waiting for the other show to drop and for me to come home one day to his stuff being gone and me being left to sort out everything else.
He says he is not planning on doing that, and I believe him, but...part of me is still so worried that he is going to leave, just vanish, and lie to my face about it until the day he does, like he and his old roommates did to another of their roommates, Lisa.
I do not know, I am just being paranoid, probably..
I just know that right now, he is mad at me and I am lost as to what to do...
I cannot make him not mad at me, and he has every right to feel that way right now...but, again, he broke trust with me as well.

So, another update on me

2006-02-01T12:02:00.000-04:00

Me and Mike have had a rough start of our week, but we will be working through it. *I hope*
Midterms start next week...kinda bleh about them, but we will see.
No job yet, will recommence search today or tomorrow, whenever I find the time to do so, while still getting everything done.
Have felt sick since sunday, missed 2 of 3 classes as a result.
Went to Mexi's last night, as I was feeling somewhat better, and did not really wanna cook.
Stupid, as I have no job, so that was pretty much the rest of my money, but, smart as it gave me and Mike something social to do besides the bar.
Speaking of, I am giving up the bar for a bit I think. At least drinking.
No real reason, just cuz. Not feeling like it any more. I will probably still go to the bar from time to time, but, not like I have been.
well, thats really all at the moment. More later, maybe..
And by later I of course mean prolly sometime next week

Haha, Jen, I finally get to be catwoman!!

Skitzy946's Wrath!!

Since God does little else bar sit around and scratch His ass all day, He thought He would create some fun for Himself by blasting Cher records from the Heavens over Singapore for 24 hours subsequently rejoicing in His subjects turmoil. Local greengrocer Tom Copeland lapsed into a Cher-induced coma on the 02nd Feb 2006.

It is alleged that God was responsible for the murder of local yokel Lutz Molohan by a stray thunderbolt on 11th Nov 2022.

On 16th Jan 2019 God had finally had enough of Algeria and made everything within its borders disappear mysteriously over-night.

The Anti-Skitzy946

The Anti-Skitzy946 was Cass Hewitt a 55-year-old man from Norfolk Island.

The Saviour

And with a limp wrist and a kind heart Ballou Mclaughlin entered the World at Skitzy946's command in order to demonstrate peace to all men.

This is the End

The end came when our Dear Lord Skitzy946 was snowballed to death by a cheeky little monkey by the name of David Smith. And the world just faded away in a blitz of snow and fire hail.

HI, it's just little ol' me again

2006-01-17T00:15:00.000-04:00

So, as far as what has been going on in keeping everyone up to date in my life...
NOTHING ELSE HAS HAPPENED! I am currently unemployed, going to school, and tryign to figure a lot of things out.
A lot of my friends are going through hard times, peopel are facing differences that seem to be possibly insurmountable, and I feel lost. I read my friends LJs and blogs, and talk to them whenever I can, but, the worst thing I feared would happen, has. I feel cut off, adrift from my social group. I am building one her in SJ slowly, but they are a different kind, who get me, and some of whom have some history with me (Reggie, Michelle, Sarah) but, others, I am so lost. What happened to the group of people I could get together with and have a good game of scene it or watch a stupid movie with? I feel like everyone has turned in upon themselves.
Though, while I type this, I am talking with Kayla, and Jen via Kayla, and realizing that soem people still stay together and hold some true friendship for one another.
Man, my thoughts and feelings are so disjointed, and my haed is so jumbled, maybe I should be the one medicated. LOL
But, school is going ok, from my understanding, and everything is working out well for me on that front...so far.
and now it is late, and i still need a shower and the like..
TTFN

Time for a proper entry methinks

2006-01-11T17:24:00.000-04:00

To start, a quiz result:

Take this quiz at QuizGalaxy.com

Now that that is done, onto reality.
school has started and I have not been to a single class...sickness and lots going on. Also, I am in desperate search for a job. Fun fun.
I am so miserably depressed at the moment, too much is happening for me to follow everything.
Hopefully the maelstrom ends soon, with me working somewhere and enjoying my exceptionally boring class schedule.
Onto the fun things...conveniently which have all passed. LOL
Chapter 1*In which I catch everyone up to speed on my home made hair cut and the death of the horribl long hair to the shockingly short crop*
Me and Mike went into the bathroom and plugged in the clippers. we deliberated over which length guard to place onto it, and what each bizzare combination of numbers meant, chose one and went to work.
i went from about an inch and a half-two inches of hair to between 1/4-1/2 of an inch. Drastic. No need for gel, or much of anything. we sweep up the bathroom floor of our murder and I shower to remove the lingering remains of evidence, careful not to get too much hair in the tub or drain.
After a day or so, I look ok. I feel alright about it, and I even accept it.
It has grown in some now, so, I am enjoying it a little more. In another week or so, I may even be able to do something with it.
And that is the story of the death of my terribly long hair to shockingly short, in a nutshell.

Chapter 2*In which Kayla, Michael and I all spend an evening at the bar, and I am stripped and the events of the day after*
We wait all day for Kayla to arrive after her grueling 12 hour ride. Finally she arrives. We exchnage grreeting s and hugs. I show her to "my room" which is hers for however long she chooses to stay.
Then the bottles are taken out. Kayla pulls out some vodka and "shine," some dark liquid which is unidentifiable. this is added to the remnants of some pre-fab white russian (which is put into shots with the "shine"), tequila, rum, whisky and whatever else is left in the house.
Michael, who has not drank a drop since he began his medication, towards the end of our time in the house, downs the equivalent of about 3-4 shots of tequila straight from the bottle. He has a goofy grin as a result. He probably matches myself and Kayla in drunkeness, with me and K having downed roughly (broken down) 3 shots of the shine and about 2 shots of white russian.
From there, we call a ataxi and make our way to the bar. Music is pounding, Reggie and Rob (his friend) are there, as are soem others I know personally, some others I know to see and many more I could not identify if they had come up and spoken to me of the state of my family or any other personal topic. Kayla and I drink, what I had, I cannot even now recall, except that Michael and I had a red bull and vodka, (or some red bull-esque liquid with vodka), and I had stolen several large gulps of beer from both reggie and rob. :)
At some point, after reggie suggesting mike go onto the dance floor to get money for drinks from anyone, he stays with me and kayla where we manage to hold him hostage and even make him move somewhat in a rythmic fashion (not dancing, as he does not so that) for the equivalent of half a song, afetr which he leaves with I believe the remianing amount of money I had.
More time passes, some more drinks are had, many laughs and socializing, then more dancing. At some point, towards 1:30 or 2, Michael removed my shirt, leaving me in a white tank top and my jeans, with the t-shirt tucked into a belt stolen from kayla.I danced anyway, drunk enough that my comfort was confirmed for myself, and was even complimented once or twice by people too scary to give too much thought to.
Eventually, after hearing the same selection of music about four times, and realizing it was getting close to 3, we all headed home, where we all drifted to bed, and awoke the next morning.
In an attempt to try out my new waffle iron we made pancake batter waffles, a messy experience, until I determined the exact amount to add to the iron to ensure that it would not overflow. Then, my father provided us with assorted foods, like meat balls, ribs, wings and the like, so supper was conveniently handled without ever havingto cook a thing.
We stayed up and played some Scene it TV edition and ate our food, laughing and joking the whole time, until we got tired and we all trundled off to bed again.
Kayla left in the morning, and Michael began trundling off to work, until he relaized that he actually had no work that day and trundled home.
Andthat was new years.

This entry is now gotten to a point of being a little long, so I think I will stop writing for a bit and come back with a few more updates on my life, andmaybe even some new thoughts.

Work is bleh. Homelife is living..

So, I am getting to be horrible at maintaining this thing..I don't know..
What's new and exciting in my life.
Well,things at work have finally calmed down some, and I have some time to breathe in between calls. The downside is, that the reason for this is that they have outsourced a good percentage of calls, and that means that they also cutting back my hours. No big deal, but it helped me with a big decision;
I am going back to school. I am going to finish my BBA, and I am going to USE my education to get myself a GOOD job, where I am given some level of security and consideration for my employment.
Now, do not get me wrong, Aliant has treated me well. I am now just confronted with the fact that I am going to need to find a job that allows me to still pay all my bills and go to school full time. So now, I need to determine if they will work around this schedule, or if I have to quit altogether.

In other news, I hate the new system they have set up for student loans applications online. Even better though, is that I screwed up the app, and said I made about 10000 less than I have made in my prestudy period
Oh well....one more call for me to make to try and get my life back into some semblance of order that I have grown accustomed to.

Beyond all this, nothing much is new.
Me and Mike are doing fine.
We have a new kitten who is insane, named Jasper (a name decided upon after much deliberating and changes). He drives Sammi, our 7 yr old man-bitch, mental, attacking him at every opportunity. I am hoping that they figure out their own spaces in the house soon, or I may have to lock them into separate rooms for most of the day.
I went and visited Kris, and Kayla, and Michele, and everyone else I could get ahold of in Fredericton for Remembrance Day weekend. Fun was had, drinking was done. All in all, a good weekend there.
Though, thinking on it, I think that also helped make my decision to go back to school, sitting there, watching everyone work on papers and do assignments and readings.. I actually felt left out with no homework to do... How odd is that?
Anyways, I really should be getting to bed...I am not really feeling well, and sleep is pulling at my brain..
Maybe I will write again soon....
Then again, given my current track record, maybe not.. LOL
We'll see I guess.

BA's Response to me
1. Alexander Keith is a great name for any future son you have.
2. Bring It On and Legally Blonde.
3. Blue/purple/red. Or a combination of the three... which would be purple, I know ;)
4. You know, I find Eugène Latrope very attractive, even though he's 35 and I'm 17. I could have a great life in the States but I think I should suffer here because I am physically capable of it. I'm gonna go say a rosary with Télésphore now.

6. Wolf in sheep's clothing
7. If you could go back and change one thing you did in life, what would it be?

Hmmm.....I think I would have done a dbl major in poli sci and french..and never racked up the credit cards the way i did. Or maybe, I would kick Scott McMaster's ass, and show him who the fag or whatever names he called me was. LOL
And..is that a compliment or an insult for #6? LOL

Since these are the only people thus far to respond about me, lets see who comments in my blog, and I promise, I will respond as quickly as possible.
Ciao

Just to fill in something

Werewolves of folklore differ greatly from modern
renditions seen in movies and shows. People
believed there were many ways to become
werewolves, such as drinking rainwater
collected in a wolf's pawprint, eating meat
gnawed on by a wolf, or being born with a full
set of teeth or covered in a caul. And unlike
movie werewolves, werewolves of old were
oftentimes harmless and highly honorable!

As a werewolf, you are loyal, strong and honorable,
and you will protect all you hold dear with
your very life. Although you are not a violent
individual at heart, you will fight for what
you believe in. You are a good friend and truly
are a wonderful person to be around.

Who is your inner Shapeshifter?

sitting here thinking

2005-10-25T10:34:00.000-03:00

So I am sitting here in another training class, waiting for us to get back on topic for the millionth time today.
As much as I have come to see most of the people in my training class, a good number of them drive me absolutely bonkers. I am writing on word, just so that no one can rat me out for wasting time on the PC and internet.
I am so tired….to the point that the sound of my keystrokes is lulling me into nap mode. I would laugh if it were true. I do not know why I cannot sleep, but I cannot, and yet I am up every morning to go off to work to sit here and be made to feel stupid for the majority of the day, as I am not asking as many questions as the rest of the people in the class. But, at the same time, I do not feel this foolish, only because most of the comments and questions are off topic or repetitive.
I failed my last test for work…again. LOL
I actually did not fail, I got an 87%, but you need a 90% or better to have a pass. Between 80 and 90% and you have to rewrite. So, I am rewriting again….joy. Plus, there is at least one more test this week, this time for HSI (high speed internet) and there may even be one there for Bell Express Vu and maybe for PC Purchase. I am hoping I do better on these ones. Though, the book for HSI is much better laid out than the other one. This one is all laid out properly. Well, hopefully it goes well.
In other news, it is my mother’s birthday today, and our whole family is expected at dinner tonight. It should be fun, especially since I have not seen Megan in forever, so we should be having a fun time. I just hope she does not bring Raymond, not that Dad would allow him to be there anyway. Another bonus with family dinner: I do not have to cook.
Do not get me wrong, normally, I enjoy cooking. Lately though, I just have not felt like cooking much. But, my goal before Xmas is to learn how to cook a roast and that chicken I have had in my freezer since I moved in.
This entry is a lot longer than I thought it was going to be. Oh well, that’s what happens some days.
I am looking forward to my plan to go to Fredericton as well. I am still pretty sure I can go up on that Thursday and then come home on the Saturday or the Sunday. Which night I am still not sure what day I plan on coming home…I think it will all depend on what plans Mike has and what plans my friends have. I know me and Jen will probably have a night of drinking and girl talk. LOL. So typical of us.
But, I am going to save this now and get back whole hog into this HIS work.
Talk to everyone later
~S~

Saturday

2005-10-22T15:05:00.000-03:00

Not really having anything to write. Work is going good. Though one girl in my training class I am ready to kill. She acts as though she knows everything and then messes up on things when it comes time to do them. Gah!
Plus I yet again have to go and rewrite the stupid tests that they give...over dumb mistakes too..
But beyond that, all is going well.
I am going out tonight hopefully to enjoy a night of drinking and dancing with mike and margot (a girl from work) and maybe reggie and some other friends. Should be fun...I think I may even take in a bottle of wine before I go, just for fun. lol
Plus, I am still all geared up for my trip to f'ton. I have almost solidified the fact that I will be leaving thursday after work, and staying until sat evening or sunday morning. That being said, I am just hoping I have enough money left over to accomplish this feat...
getting to be really tight with money now..
Stupid student loans *grumble grumble*
I finally got to see batman begins last night as well....
I *heart* Christian Bale. I <3 Christian Bale as Batman. hah
Anyways, the movie does a brilliant job of creating Gotham as this dark and poverty stricken, derelict city, with a nice smattering of the rich living insulated from the problems. It establishes Bruce Wayne's invention of Batman and an adult moving beyond his childhood masterfully, including his obsession with justice and the mind of the criminal. Also, it wonderfully dets up future installments with the ending, as well as introducing lasting characters from the franchise (Jim Gordon, future commissioner of Gotham PD, Alfred Pennyworth, Ra's Al Ghul (creatively protrayed by Liam Neeson)) and the introduction of the bin of baddies for Bats...Arkham Asylum, a building only touched on in the campier (read: crappier) installments of the films. (I think Mr Freeze was in there, and maybe the Riddler.
Anyway, enough about that, I am sure...
I am not sure what else to talk about...
I have finally broken down and bought the fourth book of the Meredith Gentry Series in hardcover. Now this is not a big deal, as most people who know me know, I will buy a book no matter the format..but this was one series I said I would wait and get them all in paperback...but I could not wait any longer..
Though, apparently this year, myself and fans of Anita Blake are getting a double whammy.
Ms. Hamilton is writing a stand alone about Micah, titled "micah", and then her newest Anita book is coming out in July 2006 (supposed to anyway)titled "Danse Macabre." I am really excited, especially since i have already read the first three chapters, sampled on Hamilton's website. I am really excited, because all of anita's whoring around may finially have some consequences...
Now, do not get me wrong, I like the sex in Anita's books, and now that I have read up to Incubus Dreams all over again, back to back to back to back....I even understand a lot of the sex in the books, however, she may be.....ummm....spoiler here, skips a few lines and I will tell you...

PREGNANT!!!!!!

Okay, spoiler over..LOL.
Anyways, I am done for today,
tune in tonight, I may write a drunken entry.
LOL.
Laters
~S

So, a real post this time I promise

2005-10-18T23:39:00.000-03:00

So, I have not written in a long time...at least a good couple of weeks.
I am planning another trip to fredericton for the long weekend in november..I am hoping i get to do more and see more people this time..not that I did not have fun last time.
And, I have decided that above all else, I really want a portable dvd player to make trips like that more enjoyable. lol
*hint hint for anyone who wants to buy me something shiny and new*
Hmm, work is going well. I am back in a training class...this time for new installs, move orders and high speed....and because apparently we are moving so quickly, we are also learning PC purchase.
To let everyone know, this increases my potential sales in a major way...like, I could be making a lot more money if I sell ennough of these things...Apparently the bonus form ALiant is an AmEx card with money to use for purchasing things...
Money would make me happy.
I am not poor right now, I just owe a lot out, and I wonder if I will ever get it all straightened out. I know it will happen...I even have a plan to make it work...
I will pay little on my MBNA and Visa, until I get my futureshop card down, then work on the MBNA and then the VISa..all while working on student loans...
I am not a fan of the way they have changed the manner of student loans...
But that si another problem..I am going to have a talk with them to try and figure it out.
Wish me luck :S
But now I should go to bed.
Good night all.

Type in google "your name" wants and list the first ten results.
Here are mine

1) Stefan wants to further damage the lives of people who were Americans long before he ordered his 'wife' from Korea. (I am a bastard)
2) What Stefan wants is a way to automatically add this behavior to each ...
Stefan wants to replace elements with a fixed header... not very ... (Exactly, I think.....strange edits)
3) Stefan wants to apologize'' Stefan van Dijk has had a very strong season (I do want to apologize? for what?)
4) Stefan wants Nik to return to his position as the Cassadine heir but Nik refuses (Damn you Nik...)
5) Stefan wants the island searched for the killer. Jax is sure Stefan is the responsible party. Mac tries to arrest Stefan and Stefan punches him in the face (I think I am living in a soap opera)
6) Stefan wants to visit us in August in Casqueiro, and bring some samples (Samples of what?)
7) Stefan wants to do 9 things. (only 9?)
8) Stefan wants to make money and asks her help. (Who is her, though, i could always use more money)
9) In my opinion, Stefan wants Rossi to be governor more than anything. (But I want me to be governor)
10) Stefan, however, is in heaven - his biggest idol is in the cabin next door - but just when Stefan wants to propose his brand-new, cool concept for a game-show to Flanders, he finds the star-host dead in his bathroom. (Oh my God...I did not do it!)

So I will die surrounded by the holy virgin....lots of holy virgins....

Boone

You scored 51% kindness, 47% courage, 13% seedy past, and 25% secretiveness!

"I know you made a promise. I'm letting you off the hook. Let me go, Jack."

You are Boone. You are kind and brave, with a slightly less checkered
past than your fellow survivors. You are an open book, and do not keep
secrets from anyone. While your humanitarian efforts are chivalrous,
being so trusting and helpful can get you into major
trouble...especially when you spend your days hanging around John
Locke. Stay away from the manipulative types and you should be winning
a Nobel Peace Prize in no time.

Your polar opposite is: Danielle.
You are similar to: Jack and Claire.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 18% on kindness

Interesting.....I am the creepy guy who you never see the face of...interesting...

- You Are The Wayfarer Guide

"I'll show you the way."

Your deep insight and quick wisdom never ceases to
amaze those around you. You are the guiding
light for many of those you know and are not
afraid to help anyone else who asks. Not very
many acknowledge your tremendous help and
effort, but you do not mind that so much.
You've seen what is in store for them, and will
be there should they need your help. You enjoy
people in general, but are very selective of
who you let see the real you. Others see you as
an enigma of sorts, a mystery that is seemingly
ever changing.

Which Classic Story Role Do You Play?

Interesting, again....
Somehow I went from being the mysterious aide to the savior of worlds...I do not understand any of this...

The Hero Without A Past

Must have gorgeous hair, blue or green eyes (a
mixture is also acceptable), and be proficient
in the use of bladed weapons. Instant and
unconditional love for the Lovely Heroine a
necessity. Must also have at least two of the
following:
--At least 5 years missing from memory
--A dysfunctional relationship with 1 or more
Reluctantly Protective Father Figures
--A distinct aversion to helping others (must be
willing to go through attitude adjustment)

A Final Fantasy Casting Call
brought to you by Quizilla

In other news..I am finally better! Mostly..
I have been out of work for three days, and I am SUPER concerned that there will be some kind of issue for it..(Aliant is really stingy when it comes to sick time aparently).
BUT
I have a Dr.'s note. One which says that I am excused from work for yesterday and today..tuesday was a spur of the moment sickness and yesterday was the soonest I could get into an appt. Oh well. With a Dr.'s note, they cannot do too much to me. I was told by a health professional that I need to stay home and rest for an entire day..which I have done...

Also, afetr running into some friends from high school, i opted to check out some of their LJ's...and I have noticed that next to none of them truthfully have changed much at all...kinda sad that after four or five years, people are still rather childish...some have made some moves forward in life, but some, like my ex gf *cough* (if THAT's what you could call her) are still the egotistical, self-absorbed, desperate to be "other" in society children, who I wonder if they will ever grow up.

I mean, truthfully, I do not care one way or the other, I very rarely speak to any of them unless I pass one in their employment or whatnot, and that is just for a quick hello.
But I seem unable to move past the need to help people or make them realize that they are being foolish...

My God, I am egostistical as well....and have a superority complex to boot!
Hmm....now I am thinking, and writing, and suffering from verbal diarrhea....
Well, I am going to work on that as well. I am pledging that I am going to not be asa arrogant or superior seeming or sounding to ppl in my life...
But still that way to those who deserve it...liek stupid old men at bars... Ugh!

Also, I am thinking I need another road trip at some point in the future..this time with Mike in tow...and boom! Any takers, and any idea when would be a good time?
Someone, let me know! :)

7) Why must life be so full of pain?

8) How can I maximize my pleasure during sex?
"Seven Nation Army (Chris Lieber Bootleg Remix)" White Stripes- ??

9) Will I ever have children?
"Respect" Pink/Scratch- again...no idea...maybe? It is talking about how woman should get more respect..so, I have no clue..

10) Will I die happy?
"Put The Needle On It" Danni Minogue- I guess heaven will be disco-tronic! LOL, or I will die dancing..

11) Can you give me some advice?
"Appreciate Me (Trip To Paradise Dub)" Amuka- Love myself?

12) What do you think happiness is?
"Lost Again" Ryan Cabrera- Finding your own way through life?

13) What's my favourite fetish?

I know, it has not been so long since I last wrote an entry, but I have come to realize that my last entry probably confused some people...
I have an opportunity to receive a 20 Gig color IPod for free.....and I would really like one...
But, I need five people to sign up and complete one of the offers on the site.....I say just do the second one, it is only $1, but thats just me.

Whats new in my life? Not a whole helluva lot..but i am looking forward to friday..for several reasons. Firstly, my first week of 8-4 shifts (which requiring me waking up at about 6 and leaving at 640 am) will be over for a few days. Secondly b/c I am going to visit Jen and Kayla and Kris...and....well, everyone, really.
I have been getting a lot of messages from all of you guys too, as to what we are doing, or to make sure I am still coming up. Yes, I am still coming, and I definitely wanna just hit freddy like I never left! LOL
But, seeing as I have now been up for 16 hours almost...I am going to start to get ready for bed...maybe I will be able to write more once I am at work tomorrow or something.
Talk to you all later,
And remember,
5 ppl to help me get an IPod...I would b eyour bestest best friend,
AND
VOTE FOR PEDRO!

I really really REALLY want one...

2005-09-07T21:12:00.000-03:00

So, I have decided to go back into bloggin with a mad ferocity...at least for tonight...LOL
New layout...I am not sure if I like it or not yet....but it is a start....
So, what all has been happening...
Well, I am working pretty much everyday...if not at Aliant at keeping my house clean or keeping myself sane..
I also am looking into getting out some of my old schoolbooks for programming in HTML and working on designing my own layouts...though that is for a more important time, like when I have some..
LOL

What else....
Oh yeah, I finally have been withdrawn from university...*sniff* I am going to be lsot for a little bit without school to keep me occupied..I will not know what to do with my time..except work work work..LOL
But Mike and my friends have made excellent points..

Also, thanks to everyone who wished me a happy b-day..it was tuesday for those who did not know. I did not do much..had supper with my parents, got a few presents, had some cake, watched a DVD with Mom and Dad, worked all day before all of this, and then came home to be bombarded on the phone with well wishers from Freddy (Grandma Josh :P, Kayla, Dan, and Colleen, u sesssy beast) and some much anticipated BB6 (big brother for those not down with the lingo. LOL)

I guess, really that that is all..

And again...if anyone has any links for cool new blog layouts, or has some idea of how to make them and wants to get me a new one, I am always appreciative of new stuff :)

Ta

So, some observations

2005-08-22T21:35:00.000-03:00

For those of you who have lead the 9ish-5ish life out there and still go out every weekend, I applaud you. I am so tired lately, through entirely my own fault. I stay up too late every night..I just cannot sleep before I see Mike home, safe and sound, and feel him under the blankets with me. So, I have been sleeping essentially on a 130amish until 7 am ish pattern for the better part of the past three weeks.
Also, I have come to realize very few people update their blogs (ljs, what-have-yous) frequently or with any discernible pattern during the summer months. And even when we do (yes, I, myself, am included in that category) it never seems to be of any kind of major, thought-provoking piece as they once seemed to be...
I do not know, maybe it is just me. Maybe I am just tired of blogging..
What does everyone else think.
I also feel bad due to the pains and tribulations, triumphs and successes I will not be there to witness in F'ton this year...
No residence, no university, just work work work.
I have come to realize I am afraid...
not just of being away from the comfort of school, but away from the predictable unpredictability of the classroom, of an assignment or paper that the hypothesis and thesis statement changes partway through....
I am going to miss my friends...I already feel like I am distancing myself. Like I am afraid to maintain feelings for them for fear of losing them from my life altogether.
Jen, Kayla, these are two that I am never going to be able ot get away from, kind of a willing servitude. I am glad I have these two women at my back..
But the rest....
Colleen, Graeme, Matt, and many others....will I still be friends when I show up for the odd weekend visit? Or wiull we casually greet one another like odl aquaintances and pass on, ignoring the friendship that once we had?
I am too tired, and I think I am getting too deep for this conversation..
I am going to bed...
Wake me up when this adult thing is over :S

Just cause I was bored

2005-08-10T14:49:00.000-03:00

If you read my entry yesterday, you know that I commented on the pending finale of "Queer As Folk", I feel a need to truly show how much of a loss this show is for myself..
Now in its fifth season, this show has been a part of my gay identity for longer than I have truly been aware and accepting of my own homosexuality, and has helped me see that with the bad and the stereotypical, not all gay men are hated, and that you can be powerful, influential, intelligent, etc etc etc, and not just a slut (though, sometimes being a slut is in the cards as well).
Click here to get a summary of the whole season and a blurb about the finale. As far as my predictions for the finale, I can say I am probably wrong for the mostpart of them, and, I am sad to see the residents of Liberty Avenue go.

On the personal front, work is blah today. The server for our input system is down, and we are without anything to do as I finished all the online courses that I am expected to do.
*sigh*
But I will be done in two hours, and then I will be having a well earned nap, I think.
Ciao for now!

I hope the afternoon is better

2005-08-09T13:26:00.000-03:00

So far, I can safely say we have accomplished almost nothing in the past 5 hours...
We had a presentation from Security for Aliant, which was I think one of the most accomplished things of the day.
We checked our User IDs and established our passwords for the GUI for the phones (except for the answering service), played around on checking real life accounts and then, we spent the last little bit regarding our online courses, getting set up for the lengthy list of courses we have to take.
I am hoping that this afternoon is just the courses, since I want the afternoon to go quickly and without too much hassle.
***********************************IN OTHER NEWS*************************************
I am so fricking TIRED!! I have had around 8 hours sleep in two days, which is not so bad, except that it was 2.5 hours on Sunday, 1 hour last night, and then a proper sleep for 4.5 hours. Tonight, I am relaxing, and I am going to set up the VCR to tape BB6...(go VETO). If I pass out at 7, I am staying there until 630 tomorrow morning...otherwise I will not be able to train tomorrow.
Life is going good though. Mike and myself have been invited to a party on Sat night, for pre-pride/rave/bar activities (since everyone is prolly doing something different). I am not sure if I am going to go, but it is a possibility.

And, only one more episode of Queer As Folk.. *sob*

After last night's episode, I have some ideas on how they may end it. Whether Brian and Justin get married is up in the air in my mind, since Justin has an amazing opportunity to go to NY and become a major artist. Prop 14 will prolly be decided on, or at least we will have som knowledge of details surrounding it.
IF it goes badly, I can see Mel and Linds running to Canada as they planned, maybe with Brian in tow if Justin leaves for NY....
OR, perhaps Justin and Brian will maintain two homes and be able to live in their manor and let Justin's art career come to fruition.
And of course, the Michael/Ben/Hunter storyline has already come to a close. The happy homo family has come to be.

Anyway, I am due back for work now, so I am done for now.

I'm a WHAT?!

2005-08-08T11:33:00.000-03:00

Hippie
You are 28% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 42% Brutal, and 28% Arrogant.

You are the Hippie! Characterized by a strong sense of extroversion, irrationality, gentleness, and humility, you no doubt frolic through fields preaching peace and love to all! You are probably either very spiritual or needlessly paranoid about "the man", like most hippies, as a result of your focus on intuition and feelings over cold, brutal logic. You are also very, very social. And like any hippie, who would have no qualms about hitchiking across the country just to meet some interesting people, you too love to interact with others, even complete strangers. Because we know most any hippie is peace-loving and humble, it stands to reason that you, as well, are terribly gentle and humble, almost to the point of revulsion. Your carefree attitude of peace and harmony is probably very, very sickening to realists or cynics or anyone who isn't a hippie, to tell the truth. In short, your personality is defective because you are overly emotional, extroverted, gentle, and humble-- thus making you an annoying hippie. And you listen to psychadelic rock and smoke a whole lot of pot. Okay, maybe not, but I wouldn't be surprised if you did.

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

Compatibility:

Your exact opposite is the Sociopath.

Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Hand-Raiser, the Televangelist, and the Robot.

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.

The other personality types:

The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

**Due to some coding error within the test, I had to remove a bunch of the hyperlinks and such, since I am at work and should prolly not even be online right now.. :P**

And, while we are on the subject; Work is going ok. I had a test for information from the first week on Friday and got a 97.5% on it (a pass is a 90%). So that made me feel pretty good..since the only question I got wrong is the same one EVERYONE (except for one or two people) got wrong. A lot of time is wasted in a day though during training, since evertime something goes worong or someone gets stuck, everything stops until they are up and running again. Not that I am complaining, but, I got little sleep last night and having to sit here for twenty minutes or more is making me wanna just curl up and sleep.

My weekend went, well. I spent most of Saturday running all over hells creation with my parents, even though I was supposed to be helping them with their new suround sound system they only had to hit a button). I also got my b-day gift early, which was a full grocery order from Mom and Dad. Mike feels a little bad, since I am getting more groceries than he is. But, I am not overly concerned, since i knwo he is going to be getting most of the next few rounds of grocery.

On Sunday, I took a lazy day, and had no real plans at all. Me and Mike changed around some furniture. Mom and Dad dropped off a painting for the living rom wall, and a wooden rocking chair, and a deep fryer. It was a good day, except for the fact that I could not sleep all that well (and no, Mike, it was not your fault). I just got to a point where I was tired but my body did not want to stop.

So I finally slept around 4 am, and got up at 630 am...not a lot of sleep, but enough that I should be able to make it through the day at Aliant (8:30 until 5, home by 6), have a quick nap (until around 8) and then have a normal night's sleep.

I am also looking forward to Pride next week, since I have never really gone. I have been at the bars afterwards on the Saturday night, but never seen the parade and been surrounded by people who are like me, walking the streets..it should be fun!

Anyway, I think my instructor has finally figured out what was wrong with my classmates computer, and we are going to do another half hour of work before the hour lunch starts.

Maybe I will write more then ;)

So, I am finally free....

2005-08-04T15:50:00.000-03:00

And really late in getting an update onto this thing. LOL
Anyhoo, I am sitting here at work...and finding myself enjoying more now than I really have been since the first couple of days. I enjoy the work that I am going to be doing, but being read to in a slow, monotone voice in a dry, hot room gets to be boring after a while.
And I do not blame my trainer in any way for this, since there really is no way that you can make a lot of this stuff sound exciting. At least she is humorous and is willing to explain in a more colloquial way what the instruction manual says.
So far, I have learned simple things, like adding basic features to a customers phone line and things of that nature.
I must laugh to myself though...I decided to take the year off of school, and here I find myself with two weeks of training in a classroom setting, a month on the floor, and then anther two weeks or so in the classroom. I left UNB, now I am at U Aliant...LOL
But..my break is coming to a close soon, and I am going to have to go back to learning the rest of the call features on Aliant landlines that I may and probably will come across in the coming weeks on the floor.
Maybe I will write later.
Ciao

So, here's how it goes..

2005-07-26T00:47:00.000-03:00

So, first off, I got A job at Aliant..not the one I was originally offered, but a job nonetheless.

I am going to be a Customer Service Associate and will be handling things like changing th addresses of services and changing price plans and stuff...and I start nextr tuesday!! No more Tim Hortons as of 11 pm this Saturday, July 30th.

In other news, well, I guess there really is no other news.
Oh, except that I have decided not to return to school this fall. I am going to take a yar off and think about what I really wanna do until next year....especially since i could stay at Alinat and make a career out of it.
Anyways, thats all I guess.
Maybe I will write some more tomorrow.

So, Maybe I am not going to be going to school...

2005-07-07T16:08:00.000-03:00

This is how it happened....
Monday, I received a totally random call form Aliant regarding a resume that I had given to them via internet. It was regarding a job oppotunity, temporary filling in for maternity leave, with full time hours and a good pay.
After thinking on it, I decided (after talking with mom and dad) that I would be stupid NOT to take this opportunity. So I called them back and told them that I would be interested.
So, Tuesday I went and took some stupid aptitude test (which makes you feel everything from really smart to really dumb) and a computer questionnaire. I think I did ok on them, but anyways, besides the point.
I then had an interview on Wednesday morning, and that went fairly well I think. But now I am only waiting for the final step, a call for a french proficiency test (which I *must* get an intermediate plus on) or I do not have the job.
I am worried for two reasons;
1- If they do not call, I will feel particularly bad, because it means I am not in the running for the job any longer.
2- If I do not accomplish this test to the standards that they place upon me and it, I will feel like a failure to myself.
BUT, if I do not get the job, then I continue on, doing school and the like, until I am done or something better comes along.
And if I do get the job, Yay! for several reasons, it is monday to friday, no later then 8 pm, it is 14.70 an hour, and it is just doing credits and collections, so, not too big an ordeal to contend with.

Hmm, I hope I get it. *fingers crossed*

2005-06-30T12:50:00.000-03:00

1. Reply with your name and I will write something about you.
2. I will then tell you what song/movie/game reminds me of you.
3. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, it would be ...
4. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
5. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.
6. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
8. Put this in your journal.

Yeah I am getting better

2005-06-21T01:35:00.000-03:00

So, I have managed a couple of posts in the past couple days, even a few that have some substrance to them.
Work is still going meh. *does swishy non-gay hand gestures.*
I am looking into a cat, honestly, and once I get one, woot!, pictures galore!
Also, after over a month of waiting, I managed to get a definitive answer regarding my registration for classes. I was accepted a day before my exams were completed to UNBSJ, and no information was further given. I went about emailing and calling the registrar's office and the proper people, only to discover that the perosn I need to get in touch with was on vacation until today. She e-mailed me back (she being the woman who is in charge with indoctrinating me into the information I need for course selection) and I have an opne invite to her office anytime on Wednesday or Thursday between 2pm and 4pm.
Not a huge window of opportunity, but, I have thursday off, so, better than nothing. Maybe I will even bike to my parent's house and get a bus the rest of the way. (Way too much hill, I mean like Regent on a highway, for my Frederictonian friends).
I e-mailed my resume off to Tim last night as well. I am hoping I get a call form Cendant about working there soon. I would love to flip off Tims and put them all on their asses.
I mean, the BS that they gave me about having to determine my effectiveness as a supervisor when I came back, yet, I am the only person who manages to stay sane as a supervisor in that store. They have gone through almost six candidates between my stints in that store.
Oh well.
I am hoping Kayla gets to come down sometime soon. I wanna go party with my bitch! LOL
I am now also known as Paris (hilton) of Simms Corner, and my friend and co-worker Terri-Lynn is Nichole (ritchie), as we have come to enjoy using the three lines so over-used by those life sized bobble heads, namely
-"Love ya, bitch"
-"That's hot"
-"Do you love it?' "loves it"
Well, thats all in my life today. Maybe I will even update tomorrow.

on a sidenote, anyone have any ideas for cat names?
I have Ralph and Miss Kitty Fantastico.
Also, what is it with us gay guys and our pussies?
lol
Ta

Thanks Kayla

2005-06-20T01:01:00.000-03:00

So, I do not really have anything to post right now, but... I found this in Kayla's lj and swiped it. lol

dear heterosexuals:
10. We didn't invent disco music so stop blaming us.

9. We're not sure about Ricky Martin either.

8. We also didn't invent the color black, but we are in complete agreement that you look better in it.

7. We are secretly glad Anne Heche is back on your team. She scares us.

6. Our so-called "gaydar" does not get us more cable stations or better reception.

5. We think your mini-vans are sooo cute!

4. David Crosby was not Melissa Etheridge's only choice.

3. If he's using two or more hair products at any one time -- yes, he is.

2. If she's won Wimbledon sixteen times, she is too.

And, the number one thing that heterosexuals need to know about gay people is...

1. Relax, we don't want you!

In other news;
-still hating the job
-still working on getting a cat
-still looking forward to Pride *especially if some friends come down (wink wink nudge nudge)*

All in all, my life is getting to become too boring some days and other days I want it to stop all together. Reggie, one of my best friends, has stopped visiting me at work randomly because I have become very empty as far as expressing myself while within the confines of Simms Corner (the geographical location of my Tim Hortons). I have to agree. I am not someone who is overly mean or nasty at work, but I am not friendly either, unless you count the whole, if I smole and am super polite to you I may get a good tip, or the, "If I flirt with you and act coy to your icky advances, I may get a really good tip from you, you nympho 40 somethign cougar".
Anyway, thats all I really have to say, since I am tired, and still have three days to go before I get a couple days of freedom.

I really need to work on this updating thing

2005-06-17T00:57:00.000-03:00

So what all is new in my life.
Not all that much, to be brutally honest. I am working as much (if not more than/as) ever. (49 hours this week, fyi). Mike has not been sleeping well, understandably, since he is up all night saturday and sunday night (fri 9pm-sat 6am and the same for sat/sun), and so his sleep pattern is off for the rest of the week.
I applied online to Aliant this week, and I will be applying to Cendant SJ soon, I think. I am also going to be talking to Abel Leblanc, an MP for the SJ Lancaster riding, just to see what kind of potential job I could scrounge up there..
I am tired of food service like you would not believe. Mom is being incredibly supportive of me seeking alternative employment than Tims, since I need to start using my degree, and maybe find a nice niche to make a living in..
She even suggested banks as a teller.....that would not be so bad, I do not think.
I just need a new job; preferably one with a desk and maybe one where I get to wear my own clothes and am done before the day is completely wasted.
*le sigh*
I am also a huge Alias junkie now, having gone through 5/6 discs that comprise the first season on DVD and am all geared up to finish it before Saturday hits. Mike has the second season as well, so I will get to watch that too soon.

My relationship with my parents has been going on very well. They have met Mike, and seem to like him, as much as I can expect them to. Not that they disllike him, they are still adjusting to the fact that their little boy will be bringing boys home to meet them and not girls.
I can imagine how difficult it is to them.
I even have to laugh. Me and Dad have been having random talks lately, just to pass the time or whenever we have the moment during the odd visit. One of them included the comment that I am getting more flamboyant in my old age. lol.
Well, I guess it is true. But even he said, I am not gay, flaming flamboyant, just tired of being put into molds that people expect me to be in. His words: " [I] am now more in the mindset that [I] come in, say here [I] am, like [me] or not, thats it." It is one of the kindest things he has ever said about me. I mean, the man has always known I have a flair about my personality, so, he is accustomed to it moreso than anyone.

I have also been decorating the house. I finally ahve the living room done the way I like it....for now anyway. lol My bedroom is the next stop on the list, and I will have it done tomorrow morning, bright and early. Especially since i also have to pick up my paycheque, pay a bill or two and make it to work for 2 pm. So, overall, a busy day, as all paydays are.

Well, for all those who read me, please, feel free to message, comment, scream at me for not updating enough...whatever, it is all good.
And Jen Pope, plese try to explain that comment you made last time, it made my head hurt. LOL

Wisdoms_wench tagged me...I'm it!

2005-06-02T17:42:00.000-03:00

OMFG! I am getting to be so bad at this..

2005-05-23T02:04:00.000-03:00

I have not posted in a while..I know...so, hmm...maybe I should get around to getting everyone up to speed on my sad little life....

The Apartment:
I got all moved, set up and Mike did too....so far so good, I think. I mean, we are having the typical little life things...ie: food, possessions, etc. I mean, we are going to have to get used to one anothers little quirks...but, we both cook and clean..and it is nice to be able to sleep in the same bed as him by only needing to go across the hall. :)
We have one really lousy neighnor...well, I say this only based on hearsay and one complaint. She bitched to the landlord one day when Mike was playing his music and the landlord came to ask him to try to keep it down...
OMG it was 4pm on a weekday afternoon! But, whatever, we have not had another complaint.
But the apartment is very nice...and we have a couch and a futon. So, if anyone wats to come visit, let us know in advance (to make sure we have time off of work to enjoy your visit) and we have space for YOU! LOL

The Work:
BLAH!
5 years at a job, 4 of which have been spent in a position of semingly increasing responsibility..and no more money for extra work...
I asked for a raise, a reasonable request, and I was informed of three things...
1) I need to be the boss, not the friend, to my staff...so I have been as professional, bordering on a bitch, most nights...wondering if I am doing a decent job of that
2) That I need to prove my work. Hmm, so now this is a math test... Wonderful! Four years being left in charge of shifts, stores, schedule difficulties and covering for managers, and NOW they call my work into question...B-E-A-fucking-Utiful!
3) (And this one is a kicker) My GM (General Manager, for those not in the know) informed me that she was recently informed of my "particular orientation" and someone had mentioned that I discuss my personal life too openly in front of staff and customers... Bull Shit.
I work with one night time manager who I could give you damned near every little detail of her personal life in a play by play.
Though, rumor has it (as any good Timmy's employee will tell you, rumor is like cash amongst staff there) that this same manager informed Debbie, the GM, that I was heard discussing my first gay experience with a staf memeber in DT...
Hmm, funny, mny first gay experience was something that I cannot remember, let alone recount...I was so drunk I would be lucky to know even the smallest piece of it.

I am almost tempted to bring HRDC, and set about an investigation against her for Sexual harassment. I know that even by making that comment, however artfully she disguised it, is an outright violation of that Act. But, if she truly is not intending it that way or she is able to hide her guiltiness...I would be fucked as far as working there..

EIther way, I am looking for a new job...hopefully somewhere where the pay is over 10$ an hour....I mean, hey, I am an Arts grad, and I am bilingual...shouldn't be too hard, should it?

The Random:
I have internet, which is fine...except that it is in the habit of disconnecting randomly during the day...
We first thought it was the modem...which the internet guy agreed it may be, thus giving us a new modem..
But ti still does it...
I have come to conclusion that it may be my router..except I am in no way able to comprehend what I have to do to fix it....
If anyone has any knowledge of a D-Link DI-704UP, and knows what I may have to do to fix this little problem, I would be VERY appreciative...

ANyways...I guess that all is really what is going on in my life...I will try to write more, and keep people posted on my random little thoughts and the like..

~Toodles~

Your Life Path Number Is 8

8

You are focused on learning the satisfactions to be found in the material world.

The Life Path 8 produces many powerful, confident and materially successful people.

You are apt to be very independent, forceful and competitive.

Your routine is involved in practical, down-to-earth affairs, and there is relatively little time for dreams and visions.

You will want to use your ambitions, your organizational ability, and your efficient approach to carve a satisfying niche for yourself.

Most of your concerns involve money and learning of the power that comes with its proper manipulation.

This Life Path is perhaps the one that is the most concerned with and desirous of status, as an accompaniment to material success.

You are endowed with tremendous potential for conceiving far-reaching schemes and ideas.

You also possess the tenacity and independence to follow them through to completion.

In short, you are well-equipped for competition in the business world or in other competitive fields of endeavor.

You know how to manage yourself and your environment.

You are practical and steady in your pursuit of major objectives, and you have the courage of your convictions when it comes to taking the necessary chances to get ahead.

The negative 8 can be dictatorial and often suppresses the enthusiasm and efforts of fellow member of the environment. Often, the strength of their own personality excludes close feelings for other people with whom they come in contact. Material gains and rewards often become issues of utmost importance, even to the neglect of family, home and peace of mind.

Dedication to success can become an obsession.

Emotional feelings are often suppressed by the negative 8, resulting in isolation and loneliness.

All Life Path 8 people must avoid discounting the opinions of others.

What Is Your Life Path Number?

The last entry..for a bit anyways

So, I am preparing to shut down cupcake for a good two or three week hiatus.
Although I will have my parents computer at my disposal, I may not have the time to update nearly as regularly as I would like, but we will see.
Tonight is dinner with Jen and Kayla and Mike. It is going to be at the blue door and it should be really good.
So far so good, three exams down, oe to go, in a little less than an hour, no less. After that it is pack pack pack, and then I have to make sure that i have everything organized and ready to go for tomorrow, unless my mom convinces my father to come up this afternoon/evening to pick up some things with the car and then come back tomorrow for the bulk of it with the minivan.
I dunno. BUT I know I need to go and get my ass in gear and get some more packing done.
SO, in case I do not see any of you guys, later! And do not worry, my fellow McLeodians, I will do my damndest to make it up from time to time during the school year.
Goodbye McLeod, I will miss you.

The results are in!

2005-04-19T23:23:00.000-03:00

We hope, anyway.
After the horrendous experience at the local ER I was convinced to go to the student clinic on Monday afetrnoon. I waited for about an hour, and the nurses and Dr were all very sympathetic to my plight. I was sent back to the hospital today (only an hour wait, thank gods for appointments).
So, then I went back and the X-rays were a "standard negative," which means the bone is not fractured or damaged in any visible way. So, it has been chalked up to soft tissue damage or a sprain, and I am now on a regiment of 600mg Mottin, three times daily to reduce the pain. (Yay for drugs as well)
No real change after having had one, but my leg is a little less stiff. SO, I am hoping i am good to go for my exams tomorrow.
PLUS
My friend Kayla is taking me, Mike and Jen to the Blue Door! I am so EXCITED! I love that place.
Well, that is all, I am now very much craving the hamburgers that are so bad for me...

WooHoo! Zio Lives!!!!

Short Sword
You preferred a weapon with 30% power over speed and 14% range over melee.

You use a Short Sword.

Stylish
and deadly, a short sword, sabre or rapier is your weapon of choice.
You are well aware that an edged weapon puts you a cut above the
rabble, but you also keep your blade relatively small to give you the
quickness you need to stay on top. Your opponents seldom see your
attacks coming, and by the time they could have regained their senses,
they are all dead.

My test tracked 2 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 20% on power

So, another night wasted

First some zaniness:

Stefan William Brewing's Aliases

Your movie star name: Skittles George

Your fashion designer name is Stefan Amsterdam

Your socialite name is Stefanski New York

Your fly girl / guy name is S Bre

Your detective name is Penguin Saint John High School

Your barfly name is Tostitos Purple Haze

Your rock star name is Gummi Bears Cheetah

Your star wars name is Stetai Bremic

Your punk rock band name is The Indifferent Chap Stick

The Amazing Meganame Generator

Now for the wasted evening. My leg has been hurting me a lot. Well, not really my leg, nut my hip region. So finally, last night, after feeling immense, uncontrollable pain in my leg, Mike decided to accompany me to the hospital. We got there at about 625 or so. I figured we would be there until 2 am at the latest.
Boy, was I wrong.
By 530 am, Mike was getting understandably frustrated and annoyed, so he went in to ask one of the nurses if they knew how long it may be until someone could see me.
Her response was to pretty much say "Is it life threatening, is it head trauma? We can't help everyone you know!" Now, correct me if I am wrong; I know that it is a serious to less serious scenario, but when no movement occurs in an ER for at least three hours between patients, and you have nurses standing around chatting instead of at least checking on the patients who are in the waiting room, is that not just ignorance.
No, I did not have head trauma, nor was I bleeding, but, I could not walk twenty feet without pain shooting anew through my leg. I have to appalud Mike, since he looked this woman straight in the eye and told her she was "fucking useless. No I was not suffering from blood loss or head trauma, but I have left in the waiting room for 12 hours in a lot of pain."
Needless to say, I left, 12 hours later and without having seen anyone. My leg still hurts, I am fairly certain it is not a pulled muscle, not is it lower back pain. But, oh well, our wonderful medical professionals cannot help everyone, so I will continue to suffer as I walk down the hill and back up in immense physical pain, which will undoubtedly show in my exam performance.

Yay!

The Assertive Sub
You scored 55

You are assertive, yet still maintain some level of submission. You
stand your ground firmly most of the time, and are fairly level. You
may not identify with being submissive or dominant, and it's possible
that you're a switch (someone who alternates between the two depending
on circumstances and/or mood).

Hello again

So, thanks to my lovely wife Jen, my newest color, which I am actually beginning to adore, is green.
Anyway, what has been going on in my life.....
Not much really. Classes are ending, and so is my time in Fredericton. I am in SJ right now, typing away on my parents keyboard, which seems so much smaller than my own right now, though I cannot figure out why or how.
So life has been good. I am pretty much ready for anything my exams can dish out....except for Soc, cause I really have no idea what to expect in that class....But other than that I feel fine.
I am home right now because I am going to be looking at apartments (hopefully) in the next couple of days and maybe even finding a place (insert happy dance here). but, I am tired and I think I am going to go to bed now, so I will talk to you all later
Cheerio

Quelle surprise

Well, I decided on a whim to join hot or not last night, just for fun.
Click here to vote on me (it is a horrid picture, I promise you). But, I mean, it will be funny to see what others "think" of me

In other news, I am still feeling sick. I was actually somewhat sick monday, and have continued to be so until this point. Work is hellish, and I am not looking forward to going back and giving my notice.
I may have found an apartment for me and Mike in SJ (well, actually, my parents may have found an apartment for us). It is a 2 bedroom beside where I used to work, top floor, 430 or something like that a month, heated. I am calling for more details today, and hopefully, Mike will be able to come with me to view it soon and we can maybe get it and move in. :)
But, that is all I have to write right now, cause now I have to hand in a math assignment. then, more sleeping i think.
Maybe it will help me feel better

Haha, lil bitchy Olsen twin.... grunble grumble

What a boring weekend

2005-03-28T12:38:00.000-04:00

Well, Friday, my parents came down to visit. That was cool. I got a carousel of candies and a bag of Lindt chocolate eggs (including white choco ones :D) and a card with 50$. That was my easter.
They showed up at about 10 am, and I played some gamecube to help mom out with a game (Mario Sunshine). Then we went to lunch.
We went to the Jubilee Buffet. I am definitely going to go again before school lets out. AMAZING chinese/canadian buffet, and only 7.99 or 8.99 a person for lunch. Schwagiggity!
Had some kick ass chicken calls, sesame chicken, sweet and sour pork, fried rice, some potatoes. It was good. Then the cheque came, with fortune cookies.
I am not sure who started me on it, but here at Mcleod we have this thing with fortune cookies, where you say "in bed" at the end of your fortune. Mine and mom's were kinda boring, but Dad's (which he made me read) was something like: "It is time to try something new (in bed)". OMFG! We all had a good laugh about that.
Mom and Dad then left to go back to SJ, since they had to pick up Erin from work. So they left, and I went ot Jen's room.
Her and Mike P. were watching I Heart Huckabee's. I watched a little of it, but left after an hour cause I was falling asleep.
Then came supper at Mexi's. It was supposed to be the Snooty Fox, but Josh was not legal yet, and they said that they could not serve him because of it, so to Mexi's we went. Good times ahd by all.
Saturday, well, meh. I worked. It was boring, but I got a good workout out of it, since I put away the Sysco order by myself. I will explain.
Sysco is TDL's supplier of frozen food/refrigerated food items. This included almost thirty boxes of donuts and timbits, fifteen to twenty boxes of muffins, a bunch of sandwich breads and croissants, bagels, danishes and some cookies. Normally these things do not weigh exorbant amounts, but frozen, that is a heavy load. Then I was leaving work, and talked Lynn (my old supervisor) and Shara (the assistant manager) to go out that night.
Night began around 9, with drinking that was unfit for younger viewers. (parental discretion highly advised.) Then, when we were all nicely intoxicated, we went to boom! and proceeded to have a good night.
Ran into a long list of people I know and have not really talked to much since christmas, but, meh, oh well.
I have now spent the rest of the day in pyjamas and not accomplished anything, save cleaning up my room again, and realizing that I am no good at the current math material.
On a sidenote though, I realize that going t the bars for me is a totally sensual experience. The feeling of warmth and movement from all the bodies packed onto the dance floor, the smells if the smoke machine and liquors and beer all mingling with the scent of perspiration and that little hint of the cold outside, the feeling of the bass and treble ringing in your ears and in your chest, and the sheer feeling of exhaustion after dancing for three and a half songs, but finding that amazing eighth wind when another of your fave songs comes on.
I am glad I am not an English prof. I would have to give an F to that sentenc-o-graph (a bastardization of a sentence and a paragraph). But, also, I am glad I do not partake in substances like E or acid or anything like that, since I think I would become totally addicted to the heigthened sensual feelings that apparently accompany them.
Anyway, I am going to curl up into a ball and do some reading or TV watching or something. It is late and I am tired, and I have to be at the bus station tomorrow to see Mike when he gets home from his parents.
I have missed him so much.
We have decided to both call in sick and spend the day together. I am looking forward to it. :)
G'night

Now, although I do not know them, I on occasion while just looking for something to read, look at my friends' friends' LJ's/blogs/diaries. I was reading one of Amanda's friends diaries, and he had written a foolish, and apparently random and contrived anti-gay entry.
It began talking about how this person and Amanda were going to the gay club, and how he is not gay, and how dirty old gay men hit on him. Blah blah blah. Fine, typical immature, uncomfortable in their own sexuality BS.
Then he began a rant about how it is stupid to have gay pride parades and the like.
This is my rebuttal:
1) Most of the people who you see "gyrating naked down the street" (or whatever you claim) are not always appreciated by us (gay individuals) either.
2) Having a "straught parade" is the oldest BS comment available. Take your head pull it out of your ass, and look around. I come from a city where we have a full gay pride week, and no one is running naked down the streets, or wearing bondage gear or whatnot.
3) This ties into the last point as well, not all the people who wear the bondage gear ad what not are gay. Pride week, although dominantly a gay event, is for all people who find themselves at the outskirts of what you (in your holier than thou ignorance) would classify as "normal".
4) Straight people like you have nothing to be proud of as far as who you are, since you feel the need to belittle others in an attmept to discredit anything that people may have had to go through to become proud of themselves.

TO ALL THE IGNORANT PIG HEADED FUCK-TARDS OUT THERE, PLEASE SHUT THE FICK UP UNTIL YOU HAVE A MUCH BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORLD.

That is all. Anyway, I am tired from this rant now, so I am going to go and grab a shower and get ready for work. Anyone who has a feeling (poz or neg) about these comments, leave them. If I have stirred up contoroversy (between this and the previous post) then good. Let's discuss it.
I am not trying to convince people of my view or way of thinking, but if we could get something of an actual discussion about it, I think it would be fun. :P

Wow, I am moved

2005-03-17T12:53:00.000-04:00

I was just checking my e-mail before preparing for class, and I saw a letter from PFLAG Fredericton in my inbox. It was asking for us to read the letter enclosed with it, and change it to suit us better, then send it out to all our family and friends. Well, since I did not have time to check it just yet, I chose instead to post this for now. In particular, I found it funny that a letter regrading this very matter came to me after the lunch conversation we just had (we being myself, Jen, and several other friends). It pertained to a long debate between Jen and Amy (her roommate) regardng gay marriage. The discussion, from what I heard and understood from what was said was that Amy is against gay marriage as a marriage, and used the argument that, if Gay marriage was allowed, then, bestiality, polygamy, and many other things would have to be allowed.
NEWSFLASH: That argument is false, known as a slippery slope, and removes credibility from your argument off of the get go. I am not saying that during the debate (which I obviously did not hear all of) there were no valid points made, but, to assume that that particular point is valid is ridiculous, and although this letter is nothing more than rhetoric aimed at the emotions, it also holds a true point, and I am hoping everyone reads this letter, and takes soemthing from it.
Also, feel free to take it and post it in your own blog/lj/dj/whatev, and/or change it to your own manner of speaking or poitns that strike you as most needed to be said.

Hi folks,
I want to ask you to think about marriage and whether or not I should be allowed to be of the same worth in this country as you are. I have never been a better and well adjusted person in my whole entire life, and I work at that every day. I want to be able to choose to be married someday and I will NEED your help to do it.
For us, our numbers will always be small, so I am asking my family and most trusted friends to offer assistance if you can. Families and friends need to voice their opinions too. I would like nothing better than to know who is standing with me. Does someone I love have the confidence to lend their support with more than just their kind words of love and encouragement? You have been letting me know and that means more than I have words to say right now. But in this moment in history, I may require you to think about doing an action rather than just letting me know, and can you let others know too? A small letter to your MP, a letter to the editor perhaps, or tell your friends who don't know you love someone gay. Today's media coverage doesn't provide coverage of the normal few of us sitting on the sidelines. We are left listening to bigots and big bucks from USA right-wingers and various fundamentalist church groups. Equal marriage concerns only the gay community, their families and a few close friends. It will never affect everyone's life if they don't have friends or family who are gay.
As your family member and your friend I ask you to consider how your support is being recognized. Is your voice being heard somewhere? If it is not, it deserves to be, and a big hurray to you! Being out as a family member of a gay person is something that only you can decide to do. I am not asking you to think of how Canada will change as a result of equal access to marriage for all. That is to big a picture and there are no faces to the issue. Please take this to a more personal level if you can. I ask you only to consider how it will look in our own family. How will it impact on our loved ones and shape our lives? If you could consider this, only in the context of me, and my life happiness, that would be fine. Then if you have it in you, I ask if you demonstrate that in your own small (or big) way. I ask you this because I love you and I trust you.
Love you Always,
Stefan

So let us see where this is going to end up...

2005-03-04T03:24:00.000-04:00

It is now 3 am.
I cannot sleep.
I have an invite to Dan's room for Buffy (season one from ep 6-on.. :) )
I have been declared the buffy equivalent of a trekkie today, and reveled in the geekishness of it. Yes, it is a stupid show, but it is my stupid show. And, I am not sure why, but I miss being geeky. I was the "nerd" archetype in high school. I was always the "best friend," never the date or the boyfriend. And I even miss that.
Though, I guess I still am.
I have two reasons for writing right now. The first is I am bored and I am just writing whatever comes to mind. The second is to actually let out my emotions in some way shape or form before I burst.
First, the mundane...
Yesterday night, I helped Kayla pick out a "date outfit." It was fun. I even got some sexy shoes/boots out of the deal. 21$ from the original 70! Woo Hoo! Thank you sugar mama! (aka Kayla). Then we went to Nicky Zee's. Some fun was had, but it was to packed or not packed enough, and skanks as far as the eye could see.
I went to work tonight. It was alright, I did what I had to do. (ie: clean, clean, clean) My manager let em in on some depressing news as well. I cannot go home this weekend. I have to work my Sunday shift. Sucky, but as my mother said today, I need the money. I told Shara (the good one) to tell Jenn (the evil one) that I would be going home from Sunday evening until Thursday. She said that should be fine. No major issues should come up as a result.
And even if they do, I do not care anymore. I need to get away.
As I was talking to Dan earlier, I let out some major concerns that I have been having lately. Although I make it easy to create the persona of the "gay ______" (the blank being whatever is required at the time), I am being pushed into the role of a token player or quota filler.
Formal, for all of its fun and magie was a disappointing time.
Firstly, I felt very left out. Everyone was there with their significant other and I was alone. I had to watch all the cutesy cuddling, and sly kisses. I felt left out. I felt longing for Michael. I felt alone. Truly alone. And I realize that that is why I avoid McLeod so much. I am tired of feeling alone.
I have left Spectrum behind; I wish I did not, but a) it is a good time to get in some work time, and b) I, for whatever reason, feel like I do not belong there anymore.
I now have no "gay" venue, to hear ideas and discuss things with some like-minded (and a lot of opposite-minded) individuals. I felt like I belong yet was on the outside there.
At McLeod, I feel the opposite. I feel like I am on the outside, yet I belong. When me and Jen were talking the other day over juice..I got out the main reason to go back to Saint John.
I came here to find myself, see who I was away from everything else, and figure some stuff out. Well, I accomplished that, and there really is nothing more for me to learn from this. I made some good friends, and realized a good many things that make up me.
1) I am gay. I am proud of that, but I do not want to wear it like a stamp on my forhead.
2) I am good with advice, apparently.
3) I have made some amazing friends who I see being with me for a good long time.
4) I have little patience for petty politics (ie, the squabbling that goes on in the house alot of the time.)
and 5) I need my family, and need to be there as they grow towards an acceptance and better understanding of who I am.
I feel like I have let much needed pent up things out. I am sorry if I talked down to anyone, or offended or aggravated anyone.
But, as has been said to me, this is my space (read the title). I am making comments on things and events that have pised me off, annoyed or otherwise evoked some ind of an emotional response, not the people. I love all of my friends.

On a final note though,
Anyone who feels like I am just a quota filler or "gay" anything only (ie, I am your "gay friend"), be warned that I am not happy being categorized as such, and I am not accepting it. I am more than my sexuality and I am going to make my own effort to avoid creating the impression that such an idea is accepted or valid.

As promised...

2005-03-02T20:04:00.000-04:00

Okay, okay, I know. I am horrible at updating. Lately, anyways.
So now, THE UPDATE!! This is an update encompassing three days (this past friday saturday and sunday.)

Chapter the first: McLeod Murder Mystery
I was a woman! This is the first point to make. A binch of the proctors in the house thought it would eb fun to do one of those "An Evening of Murder Games" and have a bunch of people participate and act out the parts.
The list goes as follows:
Becky (4th floor proctor): Facilitator
Jon (cute guy from fourth): Joe Barley aka "The Narc"
Dan (my roommate): Bill Bishup aka "Big Bill"
Leon (the "monkey king", also fourth): Peter Simmons aka "King of Spades"
Natasha (sweetheart from second): Patricia Collins aka Patti
Peter (crazy fourth member): Michael Roth aka "Whiz Kid"
Amanda (Ed Proctor from 2nd): Cynthia Masters aka "Rebel"
Kristen (proctor from 6th): Bess Andrews aka "Foxy"
and me as Wynter Newly aka "Stormy"

So, we all sat there, having fun going throught he scenes and stuff, uncovering clues about who may have done it. People definitely enjoyed my false boobs, as no one could keep their hands off of them.
The culprit........
well, I won't say (since someone may want to purchase and play this game). But it is hilarious.

Chapter the Second: boom!
So, Michael's roommate Amanda wanted to go out and get really wasted... and she wanted me to go with her (her treat). So off we went, though why she would not have picked Sweets (what with it being ladie's night and all) to boom!, where we proceeded to get increasingly drunk on double rum and cokes, blowjobs at the bar, purple hazes, and finally a smirnoff ice. I was feeling slightly under the table, but Amanda was going beneath the floor, she was soo smashed. Which, actually led to some quite entertaining things.
First, the dancing. Although she judges herself harshly, she was merely a drunk girl having fun dancing. I have seen way worse. Though she was hanging onto like someone may come along and steal her without my noticing. LOL
Then, there was the whole drunk/stoned guy who wanted to know if we were a couple. LOL
After continuously trying to get us to kiss, he kissed her, and sauntered off. Much merriment was had, and then the night had to come to an end. We went to Samba and had pizza and H2O and then got a cab to her place. I set her alarms and wished her well, hoping not to wake up Michael (who was already up). He walked me to the door, and I got a cab and went home.
That was the end of my friday.

Chapter the third: Formal
Well, all that I can say was formal was fun. Kayla, one of my dates, brought me a forty of Sour Puss instead of a boutineer (i think that is how it is spelled) and we proceeded to get me drunk before formal, so I could be sober once home.
Dinner was abfab. (absolutely fabulous) A divein chicken, roast potatoes, veggies, cole slaw, potato salad, and chesecake. Deelish!
Then came the dancing. All was fine and dandy. Much better music than last year. Everyone was having a great time. We danced for about three hours and then my plan started to come unravelled.
Firstly, I started to get depressed. Everyone was all so happy and coupled, and Mike was at home. I wanted to be with him, but I could not go after formal, cause I had to work early in the morning.
Then, I decided I would go home around 11, so that I could get a full nights sleep. Well, everyone ended up in my room. And we bagin to watch a movie. Legally Blonde, fr those interested. By the time I would have been able to go to bed, it was 2, and I had to be up for about 5:30, so we watched the second legally blonde too, and I talked to Jen for a bit afterwards and then trundled off to work.

Chapter the fourth: Sunday, bloody Sunday

So, I went to work in the am. In the winds of death. I mean, really, these winds went like 100 plus miles an hour. It was crazy. but I made it. (with a free facial thanks tot he sandblasting I got from the dirt smashing in my face.)
I survived the day by quoting really bad jokes, such as:
Where do you find a dog with no legs?

Right where you left him.
LMAO
Not really, but at that point everything was funny. I made it to three, took my tips, called a cab and went home.
I ended up at Mike's, tried going right to bed...
I got.....distracted. After the distraction, I went to sleep, and slept through all my classes. I went home, and then ended up missing out on some of my man's attentions monday because of a meeting from 10 until after 12 for HC. It was cool though.
Lots of cool things planned. But that is all I am writing for the moment.

Fin. :)

First this

2005-03-01T23:48:00.000-04:00

[01] Reply with your name and I will write something about you.
[02] I will then tell what song(s) remind me of you.
[03] Next, I will tell you who you remind me of, celebrity/animated or otherwise.
[04] Last, I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
[05] Put this in your journal.

More will follow, I promise, but this is what I have for now.

So...

2005-02-18T03:12:00.000-04:00

Well, where have I been for the past few days you may ask? (Well, actually, I suppose not too manyof you, if anyone, is wondering since I am contact with most of you regularly.)
Anyhoo..
I am/was sick.
A horrendous superflu; one that essentially made me a living zombie. I suffered through a calculus midterm on wednesday. I made one of the cleverest (and most foolish) answers ever on a midterm.
I am banking on partial point system for this miderm, so, I could not simplify the set up formula that I made (which I know was right). So, I left it as is, since I could not get any farther, and moved onto the next part. It required the answer of the first part (which was the slope of the tangent line to the slope of the square root of (x+2)). So, I set up that formula, found out where the y coordinate was for the slope, plugged it into the point slope equation of the line I was trying to define, and got y=mx+2m+2. Well, m is the answer I was supposed to find in the first part. So I wrote, very casually, "where m is the value found in (a)."
LMFAO
So stupid I know, but I am hoping on some points for (a) understanding at least what things were, and (b) creativity. (I am an Arts grad after all).
But back to the super flu.
Symptoms include:
*sore throat
*horrible headache
*stuffiness
*fevers/chills
*difficulty sleeping (though that may just be me)
*and finally, an extreme sense of fatigue
And, Michael, I do not care what you say:
IT
IS
NOT
MONO
!
'nuff said.
Well it is 3, and I am tired. So, goodnight, all.
Leave me comments.
And remember, I am still looking fo rsomeone to help me with the stylesheet of this blog.
;)
Later

So, what has happened?

2005-02-12T01:26:00.000-04:00

Chapter 1: Overview
Got up thursday, felt like crap. Big snowstorm warning. Sociology midterm cancelled until monday..
Yay?
Slept in missed class, hung out with Mike for awhile, went to work (in a blizzard!!), worked my 6 ish hours, went home, felt like poop firday morning as well. No classes til 1:30, didn't go anyway, went to the poster sale, got two shiny new posters, came home.
Mike had called, listened to him call for me to pick up for two minutes on my machine, called him back. Went to his place to celebrate Valentine's day today, made some pizza, gave him his gifts, got a shitload of things from him. Got home. Slept for an hour, called in sick to work
Hear that TIM HORTONS?
I called in sick, on a SATURDAY! And to hell with what you say!
*Ahem*
Chapter 2: The Rant
So, HUGE F-ing snowstorm this thursday. Of course, like last time, I had to work. Yay! (rolls eyes) They call around 645 and tell the supervisor to send Azaz, the 12-8 baker home.
We are not closing.
The malls, schools, university, hells, even MCDONALDS closes. But we are still open. I get to leave early, but who cares? the roads are a mess, it is still storming out...
But they do call at about 10 after 9 and make sure that we are all ok to get home.
How sweet!
Argh!
Simply put (and I hope someone I work with runs across this):
To make people work in a situation where you have to a) be the only establishment left open, and b) when you actually have to call to make sure employees will not need to sleep in the store!
is unnecessary and not right.
They like the line "We have to show that we are there for the community."
Well, what happens when the community starts to be killed because they need their fix of our legalized drug? What kind of impression will we give then?
Come off of it.
Sure, if you closed, we would still have to be paid for some of the time that we should have worked, but it would have cost you less in the long run.
Urgh!
And, yes, I use the term legalized drug, bacuase that is what caffeine and caffeinated products are, legalized drugs.
I am a drug lord, a member of an empire, who uses our addictive beans to get our hooks into you.
I cannot wait until I leave Tim Hortons forever. I wanna get a nice office job, even secretarial.
I just don't wanna have to say "welcome to tim ortons may I take your order please" anymore.
Gah, I have run out of steam. So
Chapter 3: Me and my Boyfriend
We broke up. For a day. We are back together, and I hope that the issues that caused the drama are able to be fully dealt with soon.
Today we had our valentines day.
I gave him
-a funny card
-lovers coupons
-cinnamon hearts
I got from him
-a stuffed bear with a sign saying I love you (I have named him Siggy)
-a horny devil bear (I cal him Daemon)
-a tub of jujube hearts
-three candle holders
-a bunch of decorations
-a pooping cow candy dispenser (that Amanda was adamant about)
that was the living room. In his bedroom was
-a little red and white stuffed dog (Grover I have named him)
-a HUGE stuffed puppy (named Arden :) )
-and a pair of playboy boxers in metallic red and flat black
We made homemade pizza (which I had to do. Poor mike could not get the dough to work with him) and it was quite good.
We watched tv, snuggling. Went to his room snuggled some more, talked about nothing really, and then I walked home.
Chapter 4: Why I hate winter in Fredericton
I am now sick. I felt sick most of the day. I felt sick most of yesterday. I called in sick to work. At least this time there was no comment on how I was not giving them enough time. ( 9 hours!!!)
I am now going to crawl into bed, snuggle with Arden and sleep. Hopefully tomorrow i fell better, since I told Mike I would stay at his place.

And now a word from my sponsor: ME!

2005-02-07T09:48:00.000-04:00

Okay, so, I have not really been updating and I have a really interesting thing to talk (*rant*) about. For all of you who do not truly understand something about going through a fast-food, in this case a coffee shop, drive-thru, allow me to give some simple rules to facilitate the relationship between yourself and your order taker. This will help in having us not wish murderous death upon you when you get to our window. (And yes, we know which of you are idiots, eben in a lineup of seventeen or more cars...)

Part One: The Rules

Rule the first:
Know what you want, and more importantly, have only one person ordering. We can hear you talking through the speaker and do not want to hear the same damned order said by three people. (*Thank you*) If need be, on these little excursions to the coffee shop, elect a spokesperson for the car.

Rule the second:
Do not carry on long conversations or make disgusting noises while waiting to move forward or while ordering. Again, we can hear you and we are even less likely to want to touch you if we hear belching, coughing, sneezing, farting or any other of your body's personal musical qualities.

Rule the third:
DO NOT YELL INTO THE SPEAKER BOX!! Just because our voices may be lower then what you would like, simply ask us to speak up. Deafening us by screeching into my headset and causing my eardrums to burst is not going to make me hear you better. In actual fact, it may one day cause me to hear nothing at all.

Rule the fourth, or, the rule regarding mobiles and personal conversations:
Do not, I repeat, DO NOT, ask the order taker to hold on or wait just a moment so that you can finish a call, or a quick little chat with a friend. This is important to do for two reasons:
A) It is rude. You are ignoring the fact that we are merely trying to do our job and serve you and the inevitable other cars behind you that YOU are holding up but that WE are blamed for doing. And,
B) YOU came to US for service. If you were not ready to order or were in the middle of an important call, wait fo rthe damned coffee and donut. It will still be there in 10 minutes.
Also, when you get to the window, pay attention to the cashier. We do not enjoy hanging our limbs out into weather (which can be really wet, hot, cold, etc etc) holding a boiling hot liquid product waiting for you to realize it and take it. Also, it is nice to be acknowledged when we are trying to do public service.
Also, if you read the other rules...We can hear you. We can hear your pathetic little phone calls. We can not not hear you. If we have acknowledged your presence, then our headsets are stuck in a mode where we are forced to listen to you. The same goes for cursing and swearing about how slow the service is, or any comments regarding someone who spoke to you over the speaker. We can hear it all. While you are in our drive-thru on the speaker pad, we are almost as powerful as a god.

End of the Rules

Now, do not take the last rule as a beef I have with mobile (cell phones, wireless phones, whatever you call them) users. I have two mobiles of my own, and I use both quite frequently, thank you very much. I am more commenting on those people with mobiles who assume that their little phone conversation is more important than acknowledging someone who they came to for service.
I mean, I am soooo interested in what Sue said to Jane about Joe and Bob, and who Jack is taking to the whatever...
WOW! My life is so meaningless without this total disrespect fo rsomeone merely trying to make money to continue surviving in this work a day world.
You java-swilling bastards (thanx foamy the squirrel for the lovely new gusto with which I can use such an expletive). Stop talking for the fifteen seconds it will take to order an extra large double double, or a medium cafe mocha, or whatever the hell you want. It won't kill you, and may give you a few extra months before the brain cancer kicks in.

I am now tired and believe I will take a nap...especially since this took me almost a half hour to get down. :S
*collapses in rage induced heap*

What have I been doing?

2005-02-02T01:50:00.000-04:00

Well! Let me tell you! LOL
I have not been doing all that much. School is as school always is, BOR-ING! Well, not really. Classes are always something to do. Math, as in the past, has become one of my most hated of subjects. Well, Finite Math, anyway.
Calculus is not so bad. I am remembering a lot of it from High School. But, this Finite Math stuff, not so nice. I am working through it as best I can, and I am making some progress, it would seem, but I still feel like I am just plugging in numbers and hoping that they work. What is worse, when we work on these MASSIVE (sometimes), they do ot mark all of it, only a random sampling of the questions. Which means, even with me and Michael having almost all of the same answers (or similar ones), I can still get a better mark than he does, or vice versa.
We have a mid term tomorrow in this class. I am worried about it. Mike is I am afraid at the point of giving up again, sometimes. But, I also feel he is more ready than he thinks he is for the testing and such, since he knows more than I do in this class most of the time it would seem. Not always, but, more than he gives himself credit for.
So, why, you may ask, am I still up at 1:45 am, with an 830 Sociology class and a midterm, (not to forget a Business Administration asignment due tomorrow night) ??
Well, like clockwork, I have a major assignment or test, and I am panicking the night before, even if I am fairly well prepared for it. I hate these panic attacks. But, they are also perversely welcome into my life. They are that great security blanket that makes me feel like I am still in need of improvement, and, with that, I am now ready for bed.

Also, if anyone can help me with programming codes for the style sheet that this page is on, or any idea on how to change the layout, colors, etc. let me know. I am hoping to completely personalize this space, and truly make it:
"My Space In The World"
LOL
Nighty-night

You are a King!
Strong, Wise, Noble, Compassionate.
A Born Leader!

You are the epitomy of what every man should be. What sets you apart from the other men of rank and nobility is you combine every best quality they possess into one. You are skilled, motivated, ambitious, filled with a sense of purpose and morality. You know when to relax and have fun and when to be serious and courageous. You seek peace, prosperity and love in your life, and as a ruler, you seek it for your kingdom. Others follow you because of your ability to move them, and because you earned their respect. You are admired, even envied, but above all else, greatly loved.

What is the other 23%?....

2005-01-26T04:22:00.000-04:00

You are 73% Virgo

How much do you match your zodiac sign?

So, yes it is early, or late depending on how you look at it. (I am going to bed right after this post, I swear it!) I just finished all my laundry, an I had A LOT. 5 loads, and that is overloading some, I am almost 100% certain. It did not finish drying until after 3, and I have finished putting it away.
I am not that tired, or, at least, I wasn't, so I started reading through some of Amanda's friends' blogs. I was not expecting much, since I do not really expect anything of anyone's blog. Though, I did find that fun lttle quiz, and I discovered a giggly little tidbt of information: one of these friends goes by the title of Princess for HIS blogl. Now, to explain this giggliness, I am a gay man, and I am by all means a very gay man, but this kid takes the cake. My first encounter with him involved commentary about Cher and other such interesting things. His very mannerism is queer (and I mean that in the original sense of the word, ie: "strange"). To now know he goes by "princess," I have come to two possibilities:
1) He knows he is not very straight appearing and thus revels in the role of being the gay straight man (just as there are those who go by straight gay man), or
2) He knows, everyone else knows, he just has yet to tell anyone.
Either way, I am not casting judgement, obviously. I mean, who is a gay guy to judge in any sense if another is still totally in the closet. Or not.

But, really. How mnay str8 boiz say: "You go through more costume changes than Cher."?
Honestly?

I am a Visionary

You Are 27 Years Old

27

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

So many movies, so little time.

2005-01-16T17:00:00.000-04:00

So, last night, me and Michael had a date night. We went and saw Elektra, which was good, though very much a comic movie, since they do not explain everything and assume the audience knows more than they should. The music rocked though (I am definitely buying the OST) and has a lot of good action sequences while still having a plot.
This afternoon, me, Jen, and Daniel watched "Paparazzi." OMFG! What a good movie too. It is this interesting take on the lengths an actor goes to after the paprazzi cause an accident a la death of the Princess Di... good movie and, although hollywood in the ending, very well done.
Also, when at the theatre yesterday, I saw a preview for this movie called Mr and Mrs Smith......it looks delightfully good, and funny and laden with romantic comedy..... I am DEFINITELY seeing it. Anyway, I am off to supper, maybe I will write more tonight after watching the Golden Globes.

I am so pretty

Your an ice dragon! Congrats! Out of all the
dragons, you are most powerful but do not like
to show it. A rare and special creture, you
have artistic style and are great at expressing
yourself. You think friends and Familly are the
most important, and are a hopeless romantic.
But of course, as ice goes, you can be a little
cold or harsh at times. But not to worry, you
always apoligize later!

Your Beauty lies
in Contradiction. Controversial, unpredictable, and
never what anyone expects.
You appearance and your personality are two
opposite things. Even your
appearance sends different signals to different
people. To some you may look
innocent and sweet, to others you look mysterious
and intimidating at the same
time. No one ever knows what to expect with you.
You are a little bit of
everything all mixed together. You can be watching
the football game with the
guys one minute and the next out shopping at the
mall. You seem to be almost a
different person every time you meet someone, but
at the same time you know
exactly who you are and there is always that one
thing that makes you you. You
enjoy keeping people guessing and people love how
completely unpredictable you
are.

Ok, so before anyone questions anything about the title, hear first my tale of DELICIOUS sustenance. Michael decided to take me to the Blue Door, a fairly swanky restaurant downtown. It was expensive and a little cramped.
We walked in and were navigated through a maze of people and tables/chairs, to be seated in a back corner, with loud people the whole distance of the floor away (keep in mind that is only about ten to twenty feet away). And when I say loud, I mean LOUD. I could have given a transcribed copy of the conversation.
Anyway, so we look at the menu, and he orders bruschetta for a starter....Not my cup of tea (way too much tomatoe on them). And they started every table with some warm and yummy baguette slices with garlic butter...THAT was good!
After much more looking at the menu, he decides on some kind of tahi chicken or something ( I cannot even spell it, let alone pronounce it LOL) and I got some kind of a salmon dish (I think it was javanese, but I am not sure.) Anyway, our meals came, and they were really big portions. Mike had two pieces of chicken on a bed of rice with grilled peppers and other veggies. I had probably about a pound or two of salmon fillet, coated in these divine spices (sort of sweet but also with a kick of spice to them) on roasted potatoes and grilled red pepper, carrot, zucchini, and onion (I believe). In any event, the salmon was perfect. Soft ans melt in your mouth, not too spicy, well cooked all the way through.... PERFECTION IN FINS...LOL. Well, there were no fins, but you get the idea.
***NOTE: This ebtry is about three days late in the posting. For those of you who have not had the privilege of hearing me speak of my divine salmon, this is the story. ***
