For whatever reason, I’ve never had dim sum. I’m not sure how this happened, what with living in Vancouver for the last 6 years, and not far from it for another 20… but, strange but true. I am evidently not as multicultural as I thought. Jenn’s parents picked us up this morning at 11. Jenn [...]

What’s with the weirdass weather for the last couple of days? Delightfully sunny weather, followed by a fifteen minute deluge of insanity? Huh. In other news, I spent my morning creating a ball of plastic bag yarn while someone cleaned my apartment for me. This might just be awesome, and is thoroughly worth $50 every [...]
Antses in my Pantses

So, so jumpy, for no good reason. I did sort of a dumb thing last night — I started running Maraudon with my guild around 10:30, thinking it would take an hour or so. Not a big deal, I’d be going to bed a little later than usual (my aim is to be unconscious by [...]

We interrupt this broadcast to bring you this newsflash: Regular coke still vile. Gah. Why must we be out of anything other tasty liquids? And why must my mouth taste like the inside of a glove, prompting the requirement for some sort of liquid in the first place? Now I need something to kill the [...]
That’s it? Damn, I better start getting dirty.

I’m so disappointed. Well, no worries, I can fix this. There are some people that are not into all the words. There are some that would have you not use certain words. There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7 of them you can’t say on television. What a ratio that [...]

So, my first attempt at fundraising appears to have been a success: With the promise of a donation from my employer and the cheques I have sitting at home waiting to be handed in next week, I’ve met my goal. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t still donate! If you think that your genitals [...]
A moment of zen

So I was walking down the street the other day, and got to think about how reality vs. perception tends to be completely fucked up. And I realized — and this might seem obvious, but had never clearly gone *ding* for me before — that reality is essentially irrelevant. It may as well not exist. [...]
Things that are Dumb

Parking at Commercial & 12th ($2/h) costs more than parking downtown ($8 for the whole day.) This is Dumb. Luckily, I found a spot a block away that’s no parking between 3 & 6. Conveniently, I’m leaving at 3. So, perchance I’ll just leave 5 minutes early…
Workaholic

Ok, “workaholic” is not a word that will ever, EVER be applied to me. I like my job, but I’m a very firm believer in the “work to live, don’t live to work” philosophy. However, I spent 12 hours at work today and loved it. I get to work on our licensing project now — [...]

Someone needs to invent better food. I’m tired of eating a reasonably sized dinner, and being hungry again in the morning. I don’t like eating. It’s boring. Preparing food, even moreso. Curse you, metabolism! In other news, despite two showers, I still have paint in odd places. The bottoms of my feet are a delightful [...]
