Stay Positive

Today started out pretty rough.
I've got the old man's car for the week, so after pulling into work (on time for once) I almost took a huge spill on some ice in the parking lot. I managed to catch myself, but not before stomping on the bag that had been on my shoulder. Once I got up to the lunch room I saw that during my tumble I had crushed the shit out of a juicebox that had been in my lunch bag, and it was all over the damn place. A garbage can of paper towels later, and I was finally headed for the lab.
Then I realized I had forgotten my keycard so I had to creep around the access door until this asian chick went in, and I grabbed the door behind her.
Plus the weather was shit, which didn't help with the ol' Monday blues.

But besides that I had a good day. Busy at work, but I got some shit done tonight so that was good. Most nights I just bum around these days.

My friend Kristen actually called me out on that last week at the bar. Apparently I used to be fun, now I'm just shitty and tired all the time. Can't say that I disagree really...

For the first time in about half a year I picked up a CD tonight. The Hold Steady's Stay Positive. Pretty mint from the first listen, I must say. Plus my cuz Sean said it was solid, and I generally trust his opinion in matters of music.


Pretty hilarious that the album is titled as it is, and one of the more notable songs on the disc is called "Lord I'm Discouraged". Mint them!

I also scoped out a sweet winter jacket tonight. The thing is pretty classy, and running at almost three hundo, but it'll be a grad gift from my dad and step-mom so I'm not too concerned about the cost. haha.
It's Kashmir too. ooh-la-fuckin-la...

This past weekend was pretty fun. Went up to the dirty 'Shwa to watch a hockey tourny that a bunch of buddies were playing in. Plus there was a pretty solid bday party for a buddy up in Barrie on Saturday night. The boys ended up taking 2nd place, which is pretty amazing considering we all slept for about 4 hrs each night, and drank like fish. It all caught up with me last night though. After watching the mini-movie thing of 24, I crashed early. Might do the same tonight.

On that night, better get some grub and get some shit sorted for the morn.

cashmere, dick. Kashmir is the disputed territory between India and Pakistan.

Furthermore your blog, like your life, is boring. Please do funny things and write about them - if you need help with this you can refer to my blog.
