It may be elucidating to know what manner of currency Mongrel happens to be working with at this point in time.

The LCBO is notorious for inflating the price of alcohol. One of my co-workers goes across the border just to buy wine.

Yep. I think I have commented at length about our filthy Communist liquor board monopoly before.

The sad part is our dollar has been worth (slightly) more than yours for a couple of years now.

Today not only did I totally ace my job interview, an exceptionally friendly dog started following me on the walk home.

I handed it over to a forestry worker and I hope it finds its owner again (it had a broken leash and a curiously blank tag), but just the same it was really cool to be walking along the barren dirt on the side of a crumbling highway under the baking sun, loyal dog at my side.

It was like that one short story.

my parents are building a pool, and today marked Day 1 of manual labor.  Felt kinda good.

also my cousin's baseball team that my uncle coaches is stomping ass in their teeny league tournament.  My uncle has had this passion for all sports forever, and now that he's got a school-age son, he is living the dream, and I'm happy to see him get fulfilled.  I don't think my cousin is sick of it yet, which is also good.

Also little kids playing sports and also spectating sports are the most hilarious thing.

Job Offer Accepted!

Gotta move to Lufkin, TX, but I'll burn that bridge when I come to it!

I'm supposed to start after the 4th of July.

Had a small bucket of spare change I had laying around while cleaning my room. Took it in to a bank.

$184.24, not counting the $20 in rolls of quarters.




Note: I was quite literally on my last dollar before I did that.

So my girlfriend and I have gotten to that cruicial "Introduction to Katamari Damacy" phase of our relationship. She'd never played it before.

It took her two days and she's done making the moon. Needless to say I picked a winner here.

Rolling around one of the midgame levels, just large enough to start picking up people, she nabbed up one of those random punks who whines "Oooh, stop it!" when snatched up from whatever it was he was doing and stuck in a giant ball of magically adhesive garbage.

She hissed, almost too low to hear, "Never!"

It was a fun visit. I hope someday someone figures out what I was saying in this post. Bye!

I'd say there's a Burger King in Michigan that needs a "Sorry you got fucked over" card, but more likely someone with a Master's degree in Communication Culinary Arts there is relieved to finally be off the waiting list.

We got approved for a couple hundred dollars in utility aid, so we don't have to pay the electric bill this month. So there's one tiny boon.

(I know, I'm posting in Good Times twice without a Shit Days post! But don't worry, my personal finances are still triple-digits in the red, so not paying the electric bill doesn't actually change much.)

You know the phrase "failing upwards," R^2? You need to get some of that.

I was out at lunchtime and - I shit you not - they were giving away free bottles of Stella on the street today for some kind of we-have-a-new-bottle promotion. Free beer, right on the street. Decent beer too!

Since this is Ontario, most people lined up were like "Is this even legal?!"

The only downside is that before lunch, I'd said to my coworkers that I could really use a beer. So then I come back like 20 minutes late from lunch and say "WOW I GOT FREE BEER!" before I realized how that would look. So I sounded like the most gigantic bullshit artist ever. I did have the neatly-packaged little bottle to show them, so I think they believed me after that. Probably.

Be a hell of a funny way to get fired though!

I spent the night sitting in the middle of a field with a bonfire, an old buddy from high school,  and a fridge full of ice, coke, and rum. The sky above was clear but all around us was a brilliant lightning storm.

We pretty much shot the shit and then got drunk watching lightning for 6 hours.

Goddam paperwork fixed, should be closing the loan circa Thursday.  I'll be out of my infinite personal hell pit* by this time next week.

Another week living like this isn't optimal but it's nice to be able to see the goalpost again, however prone to moving it may be.
