Your a bad man Wesley.

Hehehe.Ummm. No. actually. I’m a bad, bad man. I feel dirty and icky. I stayed up until four in the mourning playing Championship Manager. And I’m typing this on the G5 again. It’s the only palce with good internet. But no, I spent a good six hours MANAGING a football team. The celtics actually. I sign players, negotiate contracts and trades, let the tired players rest, plan strategies and techniques, organize training, jump and cheer when we min, and sulk when we lose. I’m totally going home to play some more today. Awsome dirtyness, your name is Sim.
To all those with electronic devices, may I teach you a lesson? They only work if they’re ON. Off however is generally coinciding with the non-working stuff. Particularly cell phones. Particularly if they’re owned by sisters who don’t answer them anyways even if they are on. Not that I’m implying anything.
Every so often I read something and completely fall into it, and that makes me so terribly happy. NOt really, actually that bizarre felling of perfectly content the seems to also border on the magical lands of laughing histerically, grinning until my head splits in two, sobbing, and just plain crazy land. It doesn’t matter the mood of te story, it just hits the right spots, and it’s both the best and worst feelling in the world at the same time. Those moments are one the reasons I LOVE to read. I’m not sure if anybody else knows the feeling, there are so many to love reading, but if anybody ever its that point, tell me, and then we can go out and find a good psychologist together, because some things are just more fun with friends!
Yeah, not that I have an obsessive personality, watch me flit from subsject to subject, with nary a care in the world except whether anyone actually uses the Viiv.
Y’know all those Old man (”I’m a PC”) young hip man (”I’m a Mac, and htere’s no subtle message here.”) things they had a while back? And the rant about how ‘over 2,000,000 viruses were created for windows last year’ thingy? Remember? I always thought that was kinda a burn on apple, ont the other way around. Here’s a translation from the data presented.
MacMan: “Windows has a lot of people making viruses for them. Mac is virus free!”
PC: “But why?? Do you have such superior virus protection and security? What’s your secret.”
Mac: “No, no one cares enough to bother.”
PC: “Ouch.”

For theose of you who don’t know, the NeoGeo was a pretty dool, full colour handheld gaming device that entered the ring the same time as the original gameboy. It struggled for many years, before dissapearing with a sound effect rather similar to *pwint*. No one noticed. No one cared. It was pretty darn cool though, except for the uber battery power sucking powers. Just thought I’d mention it.

But no, especially using a Mac a lot lately, they’re fun cute, pretty, convinient, and I have absolutely no interest in owning one. So I’ll finish with the mac bashing and leave it up to you.

However Mim still has to answer her silly phone.

Another Glass of Goats Milk! I’m collecting them in Kingdom of loathing, after which I’ll collect bottles of vodka to amke a whole poopload of white canadians, a boozey drinkey. Except Milk takes WAY TOO LONG to get. Grrr. Argh!

Have I ever mentioned how annoying vague and uless descriptions people give and then expect you to know them are? I was browsing this one thai music site, and someone posted “I was watching a thai karaoke and i really like the song. The video shows these two guys singing. One was wearing a blue stripe suit and the other black suit. I remember the first word of the song. I think it was siphappy or something like that.” There was no reply.

Jen you must know what I’m talking about, you work at a video store, right?

Actually I pride myself on finding books from vague desciptions, the other day, Alex was talking about lemming possesion and sentient manufacturing machines, and I said “Heh, that sounds like Tom Holt.” and it was. SNARG TO MAXOR! Or something. It was cool. Tom Holt is good.

I love the Band BigAss but somehow googling them to find them doesn’t seem like a good idea. Hmmm.

You know what I just clued into? You know that dreadful proffesor Umbridge? Well, it sure is similar to umbrage isn’t it? Hehe.

I rented Serenity! It’s amazing! I watched the day I rented it, then the next day, I watched it again. I totally plan on buying it next time I get paid, DVD for 3.00.

Mim, name you kid Joss.

I wouldn’t even say that they are, “fun cute, pretty, or convenient” …. actually, what I’d say I wouldn’t write on your blog (but you have a pretty good idea). .. oh and if Apple could ever create an OS with the ability to properly maximize a window and use the Ctrl button… bah! I’m not going to get into this debate now :)

I miss our friendly “mac discussions” over dinner…

Oh, I love finding movies on vague descriptions. It makes me feel uber-cool. That and finding a movie to suit someone’s mood is like half my job.

And OMG, don’t even get me started on finding anime on vague descriptions. This woman wanted to find something that her son had been watching, and she was like, “There’s this guy with white hair and there’s this mark over his eye…” And I’m like, “OH! That’s D.Gray-man, and it’s not available in North America yet. But you can get the manga from the bookstore.”

I felt so l33t. That’s not even mentioning the guy who came into the store saying we should get Berserk. I was like, OMGWTF you like Berserk! …But the Boss’ll never get it. It’s to long. But I feel your pain!

But anyway. I’d use a Mac if anyone ever wrote a SNES emulator for one. I need my SNES emulator. I wonder if you can get a Bittorrent client for Mac? I dunno.

Serenity is okay. If you’re in love with it you should watch Firefly, the show it’s based off.

I have a love/hate relationship with Joss Whedon. XD

Hey, Evan. We just got back from the jazz festival in Idaho and we all missed you bunches, since it was so fun with you two years ago. Just thought I’d let you know.

PC > Mac

I definately need to keep up with your blog. If you do google Band BigAss, PLEASE post about it.

Well Evan, it has been quite a while since I last posted. I just read the last three posts. very interesting. First of all, I feel your pain on the friends disappearing to the four corners of the earth for university and what not. Not that I should talk, writing in from Lethbridge. I went back to Nelson recently (just last week actually) and I ended up helping out at an adopt a village thing. Very high schooly. and a bit awkward. Anyways, what I realized was that I didn’t miss high school, but a place where all my friends were for six hours a day five days a week. I hope that Nelson is one of those places that nobody leaves for good. Although if people leave and make new friends it wouldn’t matter anyway. They’d just be in/visit Nelson with their other friends. Nelson is awsome. Miss people. I spent Valentine’s day at Tim Hortons. My manager (who it turns out is from Rossland - she calls me Nelson baby and when she found out I was from Nelson she said “oh ya, you are kinda hippyish”) had an enormous bouquet of flowers delivered from her boyfriend. Jen (a supervisor) was so excited that she began shaking me and making happy laughing/screaming? noises. Only later was it explained to me that her fiance had driven down from her hometown unexpectedly and given her a ring. Everyone was in weirdly good moods. Not a bad day in all. Yes I may have been living vicariously, but it was a good day. Well as good as Valentines day at Tim Hortons can be. On an unrelated subject, I have started saying ‘welcome to Tim Tortons’ in the drive thru. not good.
By the way, stop dissing Macs. macs are awsome. It’s the only computer I know how to use and probably the only one I will ever buy. Just because they don’t look like a block of plastic doesn’t make them childish. Geez. Go mac power. Anyways….
What does tish mean? I have a supervisor named Tish. I know life isn’t a vacation, but if I were in a tropical paradise…. I know that’s not what you want to hear. I would go and just walk through the streets. Maybe you’ll find a lighter with a message in it from a war vet that will lead you on an adventure across the country and through the jungles… Frenchies will get the allusion. Although it was Vietnam not thailand. And drink umbrellas are cool. so are sandwich swords. Anyways, I will try and post more frequently. Miss you. Do you know when you are coming back? Do you have a phone number?
Bye,
Erin

hi
how’s it going? I haven’t commented for awhile…I think…you probly thought I was gone for good, hmm? But no, you cannot get rid of me! *evil laugh* Anyways, I’ve been kinda busy…the only kinda busy you can be from having rehearsals every day and then doing four three hour shows in three days *exudes happiness*…alright, i admit it, I like to keep busy. When I’m busy with Theatre! oh dear. Evan, I like drama much too much. When are you coming home?? But all in all, I think the shows went fairly good. And now I’m going to go catch up on my overdue month’s worth of sleep so I’ll talk to you later. ttfn I hope you’re doing excellent…

My cell phone is now on all day everyday, and I always answer it if I’m not in class or eating. It’s not my fault that I have a life. :P I know what you mean about being bored in paradise; that’s why I have no interest in going to heaven. :)

Love you!

Mim
