I didn't make it back to Ottawa in time to get to...
So I’m having Subway and some chips from the convenience store. I did however make a point to stop in Napanee on my drive to buy $65 worth of booze for my solo New Year’s Spectacular.  But, I had to take some meds because my head is just spinning.  Maybe booze will help? It must if I mix it with orange juice, yes?  Yes.  Thought so. Watching Canada v. USA at the World Juniors....

I'm heading back to Ottawa tomorrow and I'm wicked...
This should make for an interesting 7+ hours in a car. :S It also means I’ll be spending New Years Eve solo which I’m actually quite psyched about.  It’s going to be pizza, beer, and hockey game.  I’m delighted.  Granted, I have to not fall into a cold medicine stupor for that to work.

Nostalgia Party in the car
Soooo, I have a rag tag group of radio stations pre-set in my car to cover me for the entire 7-8 hours I may be in the car for the drive from Ottawa back to Lambton County.  It took me months to find these and put them up in my radio, especially since the battery has been unplugged a few times since I’ve moved to Ottawa (the first time). Something out of Kingston, Toronto, Hamilton,...

Some fun updates from the last few days
- We had freezing rain here yesterday so I slid with my car…into the dumpster in the parking lot of my building.  But, I was going 3km/hr so, the dumpster sustained more damage (not really) and it looks like nothing happened to my car - it’s a Christmas miracle! - A gentleman came to my door last night, one of my neighbours, on crutches asking for all the ice I had as he didn’t...

"He won't be joining us for the rest of his life."
Die Hard really is the best Christmas movie. It was a lot of fun to see it in a nearly full movie theatre, thanks Mayfair! Also, I loves me some Alan Rickman.

WatchWatch
guardian: Whistler in miniature: a day in the life of Canada’s largest ski resort Epic, awesome, majestic … these are the words more commonly associated with Whistler in British Columbia. Yet in this fun film the resort is tiny, toy-like, a real-life snow globe. It documents a day in the life of the Canadian resort using a special filming technique that appears to turn the resort into a...

SCREW YOU TSN
percepto: All week you told me TSN2 would have the Packers v. Chiefs game and then out of nowhere you change it to the Saints v. Vikings and now I can’t watch the Packers? YOU FUCKERS. I’m watching it in French on RDS…..my French is terrible, so let’s leave it at that.   Also, every time they say “Packers” it sounds “Zellers” and I can’t stop...

lil-tracy: Bernard and I did our Christmas last night. We ordered Festive Specials from Swiss Chalet, drank beer, and opened presents. She gave me four(!) delightful things: stormtrooper spatula/lifter (fuck yeah!) heavy duty blue silicone mixing spoon (top notch cookie making gear) calzone mold (I love making pizza and pizza related food!) dark chocolate peanut butter (which I have eaten...

There are very few times when I find something...
Specifically, the almost-but-not-quite-but-pretty-much destroyed relationship I have with the show Community.  Cracked definitely wrote down exactly how I’m feeling about it. The first two seasons of Community were fantastic, experimental and optimistic. But above all, they were fun: You got a real sense that everybody truly enjoyed what they were doing, and even if it didn’t always...

lil-tracy replied to your post: Adventures in “What the hell?| It’s actually a multi-faith channel, not Christian. The more you know! Ahhh, my mistake.  Still though, Bernard Black is not exactly a role model.  I mean, he’s our role model, but we’re horrible people.

Adventures in "What the hell?|
I learned last week that VisionTV (Canada), who has in the past played other Britcoms that seemed more their speed than this is a Christian multi-faith channel, show episodes of Black Books every Monday night at 6:30. Just seems…..like an odd protagonist for them to showcase, eh?

Today's White Whine:
We’re having a food drive here at work and given that I was away to move and myself have no canned goods, I took my lunch hour early today to hit up the grocery store to rectify this.  I bought roughly 30lbs in foods for the drive (and failed to pick up anything for myself which is actually fine, I have some other stuff to live on) but forgot that I have to park on the 7th level of the...

percepto: Also, I just did a catch up on tumblr from the last few days - it took me almost an hour. Correction: I won’t have home internet until Saturday morning.  I forgot that I immediately moved my time so I could attend a fairly important work meeting. Dammit.
