Lets try this again

If you've ever been too drunk to post on your blog..... you might be an idiot.
I attempted this last night, but using a painfully slow connection to upload picture files that kept disappearing when I tried to publish just made for a lot of swearing and falling-out-of-chair on my part.
I got nothin on this Jackass though: MOVIE LINK

I've got the day off from school today, something called a "reading day". Reminds me of the ol Pro-D days from elementary school. Sweet thing is that the only reading the prof had for us was to study for a drafting/layout test that's way out on next Thursday. I can do layout in my sleep. Eh? Get it? Layout, sleep?
Bah, you don't know funny.

Gonna go catch up on the latest goings-on in the world of Azeroth now. I got my mage up to the level cap a couple weeks ago, and If I spend a little time with the paladin he'll be there soon enough too. I'm gonna be the first kid on my block with two level 60 characters... and as Ken pointed out a little while back, the dedication over several months that's required to get just one up to 60 is usually enough to make the girlfriend pack her bags. My baby must really love me.

Here's a screenshot for the week. I like my new hat.

Friday again

It's been really hard to find time for posting on the blog lately... not only am I stuck with a mediocre "Shaw Light" internet connection, but I no longer get paid to sit in front of a computer for 8 hours a day. I have to do this on my own time at home now.

Drinkin beer, beer is good, long live beer. Celine Dion is a fuckin moron.

On a lighter note....

Friends shouldn't let idiots drive nice trucks: MOVIE

Friday

Friday's here, drinkin beer. Hungry now, wanna eat cow.
There's something about firing back a couple/few barley pops on a Friday afternoon that makes me feel warm and fuzzy. I'm happy as hell. School's good, Victoria's good. If I still smoked I'd be lighting up right now.

Despite my feeelings of generalized happy, there are a few things about the Okanagan that I'm gonna miss. Like my brother, Spencer, and the people at work that were cool. I will NOT miss the Okanagan summer, waaay too bloody hot.

Anyways, Craig just showed up with lots of beer...... gotta go.

Victoria

I’m here now.
All told, the move was fairly painless. The only thing that went wrong was U-Haul not having the 17’ truck that I reserved, so they upgraded me to the 26’ “Super Mover” at no additional cost. The too-big truck made loading the furniture way too easy. Downsides were the gas required for the 502 big-block gasoline Chev, (note to U-Haul: get diesel engines), and having to pay commercial truck rate on the ferry. A little well placed dissatisfaction at the truck return office, and I no longer had to make up the extra cost of only replacing $150 of the $200 worth of fuel used during the drive. I’m happy with that.
The new place is pretty sweet; two bedrooms, green yard, wood fireplace, our own driveway, and a quiet street. We had a houseful of guests here for the long weekend, Spencer drove my car down for me and picked up Chloe along the way, Jeff and Ingrid came over from Vancouver, and Craig was over regularly. The lot of us enjoyed several days of pub fare, beer, and catching up. Now the dust has settled, Christine’s at work and I’m back from my first day of class.
More later.
