I Raise My Glass
Fellow Canadians: I raise my glass (empty of course) To the freedom of Being able to Drink Out of the Apple Juice Bottle! MUAHAHAHA!! (Maniacal laugh of the insane madman)..... To Be Continued.....

So, She's Mad at Me
Update on recent events: Thursday night (that's right, Thursday night), we spent ALL NIGHT awake at the new Icing's by Claire's location at the St. Laurent Mall. I didn't have to, but I stayed until the bitter end (6:50AM). So, in light of this, my internal clock is all fucked up. Friday night, Saturday night, and now tonight (Sunday night), I've been up till at least 01:30. I think I was up until around 3 the other night. She's mad at me because I haven't been going to bed with her. I don't doubt that she sleeps better when I'm in bed with her, but irregardless, she's still mad. And even more so because last night I think I told her that I'd go to bed with her tonight. Which I didn't. Cuz I'm not tired. Anyways, as the time-stamp says, it's 01:40ish, and I'm going to try to go to bed. Can't guarentee that it'll actually happen though (falling asleep, I mean).

It's somewhere around 08:00
Why am I awake this early??? Christmas is coming. I've recently found that I like my job. Okay, that's not exactly true. I've loved my job for quite some time, however since being made Sales Manager, I find that I'm missing my merchandising duties more and more. I don't really like talking to customer and dealing with their problems. I can't imagine that anyone likes dealing with their problems though. Can't wait to go back to school. Hopefully that'll happen in January, provided OSAP gets off their asses and does something about my application. I *was* listening to 'Only An Ocean Away' by Sarah Brightman, but now Rooster is on to lift my spirits a bit. Short day at work today! Woot. 09:30 to 15:00.

Wow, it's been a LOOONG time
So, it's November 22. Woot. Rent comes out in theatres tomorrow. I've been telling Christina that we were going to go to opening night, but alas, no money. Oh well. She can wait for the weekend. I've decided that we're probably going to go to Le Café for our Christmas dinner, but followed very shortly afterwards by either Handel's Messiah or The Nutcraker. She's always wanted to see Nutcracker, but I have to admit: I prefer Opera to ballet. Anyways, we shall see. I recently began playing Morrowind again. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a first or third person view role playing game. And boy, is it addicting. I've wasted probably close to 30 hours or so in the past 3 weeks playing this game. I don't know why it's so addictive; it just is. In other news: Work is going well (or at least as well as work ever goes). Michel, Nelson and I had a meeting a few weeks back, wherein Michel has decided to make Nelson and I Retail Managers; or Sales Manager on Duty (is our official title). This means that I'm essentially giving up my Merchandising. I'm not sure I want to do this, guess it's a bit too late for that now though. Doesn't matter. Nelson is thinking of leaving after Christmas anyways. And so is Marty. Woe is me. Not much else is up. Christina is still pregnant (like that was going to change). She thinks it's going to be a boy, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I am terrified that it's going to be a girl, and we won't be able to stand each other because I don't know how to raise her properly. Kinda sux ass if you ask me. And why wouldn't someone ask me? I'm going to be a dad. I don't know the first thing about raising a girl, afterall, there are no female siblings in my family. Well, I shouldn't say that. I *do* have a sister, she was just put up for adoption when my mother was 19. Bought another book called Be Prepared: A Practical Handbook for New Dads. The caption on the back reads: "If you're a new dad, keep a copy of Be Prepared by your bedside. It's funny, informative, and -- let's be honest -- it's not like you're goin got be sleeping anyway." Who wouldn't be terrified after reading that??? This isn't the kind of thing that she should know... Skiggie, Ashley.....
It's not like she would take my head in her lap and run her fingers through my hair saying "it'll be okay. Don't worry dear, everything will be fine." I imagine a more Roseanne and Dan approach: "Well, IT HAD BETTER BE OKAY. CUZ WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, THERE'S A BABY COMING!"
Oh god.

Update on the Baby Names thing
She caved. I can now seriously consider any female names that I want to. And Mackenzie is back on the table :) Current Mood: cheerfulCurrent Music: Matchbox 20 - Closing Time | | Sunday, November 6th, 2005 | | 12:58 am |
To Bed... to bed
Ahh, parting is such sweet sorrow. And actually, it's quite bittersweet. I still haven't eaten yet :( Current Mood: sleepyCurrent Music: LFO - Every Other Time | | Saturday, November 5th, 2005 | | 11:51 pm |
Okay, I'm Searching For That Song
I'm so intent on finding that song, that I'm listening to 5 different radio sources all at once. HOW PATHETIC AM I????? BTW, the 5 that I'm listening to are: - iTunes - Winamp - Windows Media (I know, eh??) - Real Player - Shareaza (with a small plugin). (Still Hungry). Current Mood: hungryCurrent Music: Nickelback - Photograph | | 11:37 pm |
Hungry, and Tired...
So, I've been trying to find this song for the past couple of hours without any luck. I wish I could tell you who sings it, or even what the name of the song is...but I can't; cuz I don't know it. I know the band is female. And Christina thinks they're female. But that's all I've got. In other news, I guess I'm supposed to be Retail Manager now. Sharing the position with Nelson, which isn't too bad at all. Though I think he's a better manager than me (I'm not bitter). The store needs a good manager, it's a shame he won't be staying very long. Michel doesn't pay us what we *should* be paid. Meaning, that I'm the highest paid employee in the store, and I make $10 per hour. This is probably because I'm the guy who does all the grunt work, in addition to merchandising my store and managing my staff. However, there are a lot of people more qualified for a Retail Manager position than I am, and quite a few people in my store who should be paid more than $10 per hour (due to qualifications or certifications that they possess that I don't have). This be the timeless ramblings of the guy who is looking for a song he doesn't know anything about. In other news: Christina went to the pharmacy to pick up a perscription for Diclectin which is apparently supposed to help with her nausea. For a month's worth of pills, it's $170. She's decided to go without and be nauseated. I think she's hoping that it'll only last for another month or so. We shall see. Added 2 more names to the Baby Name Spreadsheet. I'm still ga-ga over Rayne. I would *so* name my child Rayne. Mousey thinks we should name the child Mackenzie Rayne if we have a girl. We're *not* going to have a girl anyways, so it doesn't matter :) I've relegated myself to thinking that I don't care what sex the baby is, just that the child is healthy. We watched Supernanny last night. I don't think I could deal with having a child that's handicapped. Especially is they're like Tom. I'm not sure I could deal with that. Don't get me wrong; I'm not saying I would smother the child or anything. That's just cruel. What kind of person do you think I am? It's 23:48. Not even tired yet. Well, maybe a little. Maybe I *should* go to bed. Must eat first though. Just something small like a bowl of Shredded Wheat. Yeah. Shredded Wheat. MMMMmmmmmmm Brown Sugar. Anyone who knows me well enough to know how much I absolutely *LOVE* brown sugar will appreciate just how much I pour onto my Shredded Wheat. MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmm..... Need food now. May write more later. Current Mood: hungryCurrent Music: Pussycat Dolls - Stickwitu | | Sunday, October 30th, 2005 | | 11:43 am |
Baby Names
So, we're testing out baby names and making lists and such (normal things that parents-to-be do)... She is now on a VETO binge about taking names off the table because I've dated or slept with someone who has that name: For example, she LOVES (and I mean *LOVES*) the following names: - Mackenzie - Emma - Abigail - Emilia But wants them off the list now because I've had sex with girls who have the same name. I suppose it's normal because I wouldn't name one of my children Cheryl. Anyways, let's put it to a vote: Who thinks that she's justified in taking those names off the table? I sure as hell don't. Agree or Disagree? Current Mood: UpsetCurrent Music: None | | Sunday, October 23rd, 2005 | | 9:31 pm |
Secrets Sux Ass... But I Don't Have To Keep Mine Anymore!!!
So, yesterday, when I posted that secrets suck ass, I wasn't allowed to tell anyone my secret because Christina wanted to wait. Well, the secret is out of the bag now that we've discussed it with our parents. And I know you've probably already guessed what it is... Christina's Pregnant! And according to an Ancient Chinese chart thingy, it's going to be a boy! Knowing this information comes with ONE STIPULATION: Mellie_bean, you can't tell Alysia about it. Not until Tuesday at least, cuz Christina is going to tell her at the meeting; in fact, probably everyone will know that evening. Also, Christina's birthday is Wednesday, and we're going to try to do dinner that evening. Place is undecided as yet, but information will follow as I have it. WOOHOOOOOOOO!!! I'm gonna be a daddy! Since the Ancient Chinese chart thingy said it's going to be a boy, we've currently named it Lil'C. HOW CUTE IS THAT?????

SECRETS SUCK

SOMETHING HAPPENED
I want to tell a secret, but I can't, cuz I promised not to. Secrets Suck Ass. Torisutan, I'll talk to you soon! Current Mood: anxiousCurrent Music: The Braying and Neighing of Barnyard Neighbours | | Saturday, October 15th, 2005 | | 10:26 pm |
So It's Like 2 Minutes Later
Christina is watching Oprah. Not Opera (cuz I'd be in there with her). We've worked out this deal. She won't watch Oprah when I'm around, and I won't delight in the Simpsons. I think I'm getting screwed in this deal. Anyways... Drops of Jupiter is still playing, just to give you a reference on how soon after my initial entry it is. Read eoriel's LJ today, and saw that she mentioned something about the new Bond. I know, it sux ass. They picked an idiot to play 007. Can't say I'm too happy to go to see the movie, but am curious about who the Bond chick will be. Speaking of which, who's the hottest Bond woman? My votes are with the woman who played Octopussy (Maud Adams). Current Mood: contemplativeCurrent Music: Kylie Minogue - In Your Eyes | | 7:18 pm |
Stupid Internet
So, I'm not really ashamed to say that I am a firm believer that P2P (Peer to Peer, as in file transfer) should be completely legal and free. I'm also not ashamed to say that I use Shareaza (www.shareaza.com) to download all of the files that I look for (this is, of course, separate from downloading torrent files). I've been searching for like 5 weeks for Mad World (song from the Donnie Darko soundtrack). Do you think I could find it? Hell no. I think something is wrong with the Shareaza network... will investigate more. The reason I think that something is wrong is (again, not ashamed to say) I download porn. What guy doesn't??? Anyways, I get *most* of it from Shareaza, and do you think I could find anything worth watching? NO. And anything that would *actually* download? NO. I think it's time I switched to something else. Sad to say though: I really like the Shareaza interface. Current Mood: sleepyCurrent Music: Train - Drops of Jupiter | | Wednesday, October 12th, 2005 | | 8:04 am |
Oh My God: It's So Early
Please... someone make time stop for me. Hop into that little Delorian of yours and transport me back to last night so I can get more sleep :( Horrible night sleep last night, for both Christina AND I. Probably the worst *ever*. It's 08:06 and I'm at work. This sux. Current Mood: TiredCurrent Music: None | | Monday, October 10th, 2005 | | 3:50 pm |
I'm a SpiteFul Loner
So, I took this test on OkCupid.com and found out the following: Spiteful Loner You are 100% Rational, 14% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 42% Arrogant. You are the Spiteful Loner, the personality type that is most likely to go on a shooting rampage. You are a rational person and tend to hold emotions in very low-esteem; not only that, but you are also rather introverted, meaning you probably bury any emotions you feel deep inside yourself. Combine these traits with your hatred of others and your brutality, and it seems that you would be quite likely to shoot innocent people in a rampage. Not only that, but you are also a very humble person--not a braggart at all--meaning you could possibly have low-self esteem. This is only yet one more incentive to go on a shooting rampage, because you wouldn't care if you died as a result. Granted, you probably haven't gone on a shooting rampage and probably never will, but all the motivations are there. In conclusion, your personality is defective because you are too introverted, brutal, insecure, and rather unemotional. No wonder no one hangs around you, you morbid, cold-hearted freak! To put it less negatively: 1. You are more RATIONAL than intuitive. 2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted. 3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle. 4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant. Compatibility: Your exact opposite is the Televangelist. Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Capitalist Pig, the Smartass, and the Sociopath. ------------------------ Thanks for this test go out to Torisutan... dude, God I HATE YOUR SOUL!!! Anyways, the test can be found at http://www.okcupid.com/tests/take?testid=4741219933576750506 in case you wanted to take it.

So, it's the next morning
We're choosing baby names... not that she's pregnant or anything, but we're doing it anyways. She doesn't like the following: - Maximus - Octavious - Aeris But she absolutely loves: - Ariana (which is actually cool) - Cadence - Aria - Makayla (hate this one...) - Preston (though interesting, sounds very regal. And being myself, and knowing what I was like as a child, my kids are going to be SUCH BRATS) That's all for now. We're going to breakfast probably at Zak's Diner, then walking home depending on the weather, though admittedly, it looks kinda crappy out. Current Mood: amusedCurrent Music: Nickelback - Too Bad | | Saturday, October 8th, 2005 | | 10:55 pm |
My Mistake
My mistake in reference to the Hockey Game. It was Wednesday Night. And they play against each other tomorrow at the Corel Centre. It's gonna be awesome. Current Mood: mistakenCurrent Music: Staind - Outside | | 10:46 pm |
Sometimes, It's A Constant Fight
So she's pissed at me... again. Who am I talking about? My wife, of course. She's mad because I never told her about my LJ account. In answer to everyone's impending questions, no, it's obvious that I haven't been posting for very long... only a few weeks in fact, but still, she seems hurt (?!?) that I have one and she doesn't know about it... Guess she doesn't know that it's listed in my favourites in Mozilla. I'm actually impressed that she hasn't gone and looked at it. *Wonders why* Work is meh. Everton and I have been emailing lately as he wants to set up a meeting with Michel, Jay (GSM at 626), himself and me. God knows why he wants me there; I'm just a peon manager, not GSM (that's Michel's job as the owner). Anyways, it'll be interesting to say the least. Monday is Thanksgiving. Happy Turkey Day to all. We're going to Greg's for dinner; he's going to cook the turkey with alcohol, so I can only imagine how it's going to turn out. You see, the reason he plans on doing this is to get back at everyone because the Leafs lost against the Sens in the first-ever shootout in the NHL on Thursday (I think it was Thursday). Anyways, off to bed for me. I worked 8 - 6 today, with a 20 minute break. I'm getting to old for this shit. Discontent is a good word for the day. Current Mood: discontentCurrent Music: Seether ft.

Cleaning Today
So we're taking the time to clean the bedroom today. Christina has decided that she's throwing out all the clothes that don't fit her... Hmm... this may actually help elimate the clutter in the bedroom... We shall see. Otherwise, we're off today, and will be going for dinner (probably Casey's) at Blair, and then out to see Just Like Heaven. It'll be a chick-flick tonight...
