I haven't posted here for over a month, and now I'm totally going to cop-out by wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day.



Whether you interpret the "happy" part of that sentiment as gazing lovingly into your significant other's eyes while The Notebook/Gone With the Wind/When Harry Met Sally plays in the background or hurling random chunks of ice at unsuspecting couples who pass by too close to you while breaking every social standard of acceptable PDA is entirely up to you.

My carton of soy milk reads "Shake well and buy often". New personal life philosophy for a new year, maybe? We'll see.

Happy (belated) new year, everyone. :)

 Since I like to prattle on about things that don't matter, like the Canadian federal election (seriously, I was talking to someone the other day that was from Prince Edward Island and had no idea who Elizabeth May was, but was all over the Barack Obama bandwagon), I just thought I'd take this opportunity to state that the NDP candidate for my riding is 21 and in my Japanese class. Is this kind of cool? Yes. Does it do anything remotely constructive for my inferiority complex? No. 
/valentine's

Okay, so, since I am a benevolent blogger and am always worried that those on my friends list are not receiving sufficient lolz, I bring to you http://shareyouroops.ca, where you can go and discuss with people you don't know how you a) became supremely drunk, b) located the nearest penis and proceeded to have probably-consensual sex with it, and c) were too involved in the "moment" to recognize even at a passing glance that, hey, maybe this isn't actually a good idea. Maybe I'm just a judgmental bitch, but the entire concept of this "website" boggles my mind. Whatever happened to the golden era of shame-facedly slinking to the pharmacy the morning after without having to inform everyone that possesses both a computer and an internet connection?

Anyway.



This is an image of the cat bus from the Miyazaki film, My Neighbour Totoro. Best mode of transportation ever? Yes. Did my head explode all over the wall because the concept of a cat as a bus was too much to bear? Yes.

Happy Thanksgiving weekend, everyone!

It's 2:40 a.m. Jack has drooled all over everything. It's time for bed.

Apparently, my new motto has become work is boring; fight with people.

/valentine's
My life has become my job, a box of Crispy Delights, a clunky, cumbersome cordless phone that sometimes works, and novels by Jane Austen.

It could always be worse.
