A Long Time Ago, We Used to Be Friends
It's 2:04am. My neighbours seem to be having a week long party. Makes it very hard to sleep.
I quit my job at Foothealth. My last day will be the 16th. I'm really excited about that. After that, I will begin temping.
There's not much more to say. Perhaps I should get a shut-up stick. I could create enemies really quickly with something like that.
I Have the Power
I got the She-Ra Season 1 Volume 1 the other day. I've been looking for that for such a long time. Woot!
Waking up at 4 in the morning for door crashers isn't that bad; not getting what you wanted and having a lady beat on you is bad.
Hope everyone had a good Christmas!
It May Not Be Professional
I'm gonna say it.
I'm glad Calgary is going forward with a bylaw to fine people for spitting, urinating and loitering. And, no, I don't think this is just an attack on Calgary's homeless. I have never once seen a homeless person spit (that doesn't mean they don't do it, I know). I have had a girl hoark at my feet just as I was getting ready to go on a train. Unnecessary. I have seen a guy hoark on a wall while I was going to eat lunch. Gross. I have seen a bus driver spit out the window when other cars where driving. I have seen older people - seniors spit whenever and wherever they like. It's a disgusting habit. As for loitering, which I think will affect the homeless the most, there are a tonne of bored youth loitering everywhere, so they should get fined as well. Maybe they'll understand they're not untouchable.
And speaking of seniors doing whatever they want. I have had so many old ladies butt in front of me this week. I don't understand why they can't wait in line either. Yes, we should respect them, but I think they have to earn some of that respect as well. And if that makes me ageist, well then that's the way it's going to be.
It's Not Unusual
I'm still alive. Busy, but alive. I've finished my play. I do not anticipate anymore writing changes, but I'm not going to discount the option. I have auditions for said play Monday, December 18 between 5 and 9 at Rocky. Hope people come!
The play at Foothills is this week. It's going to be one busy week. 5 performances in 3 days oy.
I've read some books that I've really enjoyed. Julie, I think you'd be interested in at least some of them.
The Red Tent and
The Birth House. I've wanted to read them ever since I started at Chapters, and now that I no longer work there, I haven't bought as many books because, well, I don't get the discount.
I also watched the first season of Rome. It uh, was interesting. Great storyline, especially if you like the history of ancient Rome. It was set from 52BC to when Caesar died, and I don't remember what year he died in. The only bad thing was that it didn't hold back from the depravity of Rome. So, nudity - and they didn't go half way, and in one particular episode LOTS of gore, so much so that I ripped off my headphones and turned from the computer cringing. But the fact that the storyline is so great overshadowed the icky stuff.
I can't think of anything else that is going on. Oh, I lost my MSN abilities, so I haven't chatted with some friends in a long time. I kind of feel bad since I've lost that connection, but I was all that involved with chatting in the first place. Anyone who misses chatting should get google talk.
