Second last day for me working in Food Safety. So the office treated me to lunch. Went to this very cute greek restaurant. Highlights of the event? First off, got to ride in the boss' 1984 Westfalia van (curtained windows and all)!! What a SWEET ride! The food at the joint was pretty damn good. And the going away present they got me kicked ass too. A 2-6 of Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum! Can you say YUMMY? No, you can't. Because you don't have A.E RUM like I do ; P I'm still having trouble grasping the idea that I've been employed for four months by the government without them catching on to my gross incompetence. My time must be up soon though...
Oh, and they bought me a Guns and Ammo mag. Not something I read on a regular basis, but cool nonetheless. And finally, saw this awesome sign on the way to the restaurant.

You've gotta have BALLS to name your company that (pun intended : )

Yo! Been a couple days... no major disasters to report (unless you count the brutal Oilers game last night). Sad sad sad... I went over to a friend's place and took over her tv (thank god for the NHL channels on satellite) to watch the Oilers- Stars game. It was pretty damn ugly tho...
Speaking of ugly, that's not even gonna begin to describe the debauchery that we're gonna commit in le province FRANCAIS in November. Yes, the OTP crew is being sent to Quebec City for a week long "training" session... yeah right. Just set up my travel itinerary - departing at the ungodly hour of 6:40 am Saturday morning (Nov. 23rd), rendezvous-ing with several other displaced West siders in T.O (MJS was once a west sider), then hopping the earliest flight to QC. We're gonna show them cath(ah)olics the definition of "inebriated mess"!! I am STOKED! I cannot wait! And do I ever feel sorry for the innocent patrons of Air Canada Flight 516... Matt, Ross, Franny, and I are gonna do some damage yo. check it.

Was chatting on ICQ (yes, I have no life - that's been well established already) - and heard this really depressing story. so I made the teller retell the ending with a positive spin. And this is what she came up with.

"So the girl telepathically knows the woman is about to commit suicide, and realizes that she cannot live another day without the love of her boss. She once again taps into her telepathic powers and finds the address to the boss' parent's house and speeds her way over there to stop this attrocious tragedy from occuring. At that moment, the girl confesses that she has had lesbian thoughts run through her mind and is searching for an older more experienced person to tell her. She also professes that she is submissive and the whole boss and subordinate thing appeals to her. They skip off into the sunset in gay gaity forever."

Awesome huh? I thought so too. And all created on the fly. Sign of a natural storyteller (or someone who's used to BS-ing a lot : )

How's this for a shitty horroscope? Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19): Everything to do with your job, publishing, the media, legal matters, and even education is uphill now. And you're the one pushing the boulder. You have all these great ideas, but it's tough to get them off the ground. This is one of those weeks where if the shoe fits, it's ugly. Face the facts...
Gee... Thanks. Let me get my gun and get this over with...

Happy Thanksgiving... I'm stuck in Vancouver cause I couldn't afford a plane ticket home. No Turkey for me. Thank god for the $5 big bird Save-On special...
Got real bored today, started drawing. Was super hungry, am still super hungry. But fought off hunger to finish some dead-beef fanart. check it out. It looks all shitty cause you lose a lot of fine lines in the paper to computer transfer. That and it was doodled with a ball point pen, making all the mistakes glaringly obvious and UN-erasable.

gonna get me some breakfast now...
