I always knew that anything to do with the government was full of redundancies and other unnecessary crap. But I had the point driven home this week. I decided to join this Young Canada Works thing and see about finding an internship through there. I was filling out their 12-step aplication and it was making …

Have A Hotdog On Me My Friend
How is it, considering the speed at which new technologies are developed, that we as a society have not yet figured out how to make a decent hotdog bun? You’d think that as important as hotdogs have been to the lives of so many over the years that somebody would have tackled this issue by …
Randomness Ahoy
There were a few things floating through my head, so I figured I’d write them down together in a random thought stew. Here’s a lesson I had to learn the hard way. Hopefully others can learn from my stupidity. Never! ever! give! to! charities! who! phone! you! I gave to one charity who phoned. It …
Come to My Store and Get a Blueberry Squishy!
I had the weirdest thing happen to me yesterday. I had this giant craving for a slushy. A slushy? Ok then. But it was there, and I was feeling kind of down, so I decided to go get one. So off I went in search of a slushy. I went to Dairy Queen because I …

It Can’t Be Just Me…Can It?
Carin and I were sitting around talking the other day when somehow the subject turned to sleep. I’m not sure how it came up, but I mentioned that I think it’s weird that when you fall asleep with something on like a TV or radio, it always seems way louder when you wake up than …
What’s This? A Normal Life?
Finally! I’m home and starting to feel like a normal human being again! For the first few days, I was so overwhelmed. I was trying to figure out where the dog fit into my day, plus trying to read the fifty odd emails I had set aside to read when I got home, plus decompressing …

This one definitely wins the Most Retarded Thing I’ve Heard In A Long Long Time award. Texas State Senator Dan Patrick hasfiled a piece of legislationthat would see the government pay pregnant women considering abortions $500 each not to go through with the procedure and then give the finished product up for adoption. According to …
Spammers And Bankers And Rage, Oh My!
So, how’s everybody today? Hopefully good. I’m doing ok. A little sluggish, but that’s alright, I’ll get over it eventually. Maybe writing might help get me going, so I figure that’s what I’ll do until I run out of things to talk about or get sidetracked by something else. Everybody keeps asking me if I …
Odd Combination Of Things Number 3
Sorry for not having this posted sooner, but between seeing a friend I don’t see much, setting up my new computer, going away to see family, seeing something that made me profoundly upset [possible post to come on that one], running around getting a bunch of things done so I don’t have to think about …
Thought Hodgepodge
I just felt like posting about a bunch of stuff, and since this is going to be the last bit of sanity I have before my life gets turned upside-down by guide dog school and puppy’s arrival, not that I’m complaining, I figured I should take it! So it’s 3 days to go, can you …
