stupid

Anyone want two tickets to see the Stones tomorrow? We’re not going. I didn’t even realize when I bought them that the concert was in the middle of the week and going to be all friggin’ day.

Oh yeah…

Monday was by birthday. Yay me! Dammit, I was thinking of an intelligent post this morning on the subway, it was all formed in my head, then I didn’t write it down. Grr. Recently, I revamped the UNNA site with a tweaked look and new icons. I also got an idea for a super-secret project […]

unmitigated crap

Finally, after a few weeks of unmitigated fluff and crap, finally some good movies are coming out this week, movies that I will actually pay money for. Yay! The other night I watched Terminator 2 for the first time. It was good. Our kitten is coming along nicely, his name is now Felix and he […]

Pacific Mall

Yesterday we went to Pacific Mall in Markham, which is apparently the largest Chinese indoor mall in North America. It is quite a place to go, especially for an ignorant white man like me. I’d never been, as it was built while I was in Guelph doing my degree. There is a ton of stuff […]

Damn you, HMV!

I swear I’ve wrote an entry with that title before… HMV doesn’t have the new Guster album yet. HMV won’t have it until July 15. Amazon.ca does have it, and will send it to me for $18.86. Hrm.

good and crappy at the same tiem

Good: the Concert for Toronto. Except that SkyDome SUCKS for concerts. It was like having a concert in an oil drum. Bad: misato got 0wned by some script kiddies. Rebuild time. Bastards.

Guess who just gave me a call? My car insurance broker. He had good news: because Sandy and I are carrying our apartment insurance on the same company as our car insurance, I save 5% on my car insurance renewal. I already knew that, thanks Scott. He also had other news: our premium is up […]

conGRADulations

Yesterday was Sandy’s convocation ceremony! It was great and brought back memories of my own convocation last October. Her mom, dad, Meem, and friend Laura came out as well. The ceremony was like all other convocation ceremonies: long and sometimes boring 🙂 I was waiting for her as soon as she got off the stage […]

le fish

We recently got a tropical fish tank. Rest assured, this was prior to the release of Finding Nemo, so we’re not riding any kind of trend here. Heck no. What happened was I expressed some interest in getting some fish. Sandy said “Hey! I’ve got an old fish tank at my parent’s place, I’ll bring […]

will the messed-up crap please stop now?

I have a new job. I’m working at Maptuit in the support group. Hey, it’s a steady job – actually my first full-time job yet. Now, on the other hand RBC has totally fucked up my last pay, and now I have to wait for the next payroll cycle for them to adjust it properly […]
