Today in minor inconveniences
Is there anything worse than coming to work and finding somethign you were writing has been eliminated because your system rebooted over the weekend?
Of course there are. Hundreds of things. This is just annoying.
I find it odd that my mood icon set has the same image for annoyed as aggravated. Those are different, dammit!
current mood:  annoyed

TODAY IS SHATMOY!
The first day of Shatmoy, anyway.
Watch Trek this week. Read fanfic! Hug a Vulcan.
Today is Shatmoy, but last night was drumming, and Warhammer.
I found pirate ships at the dollar store.
There were boardings, and sailings, and dirty deeds done at low tide.
Also, I am currently unemployed again! Huzzah!

I have a really great game last night. Tight play, and then yummy role playing. I'm almost all set with my next Fanzine for the gamers - and if I don't hurry; I'll tell them all the stories before they have a chance to read them.
I'm running off to Ann Arbor to visit with Colin & Heathyr before they fly home. Lots to do, but friends from out of state come first.
In case my niece reads this - I scored the movie for you!

Hey USA
Congrats for passing anything related to health care.
I've heard that the bill isn't exactly the ideal, but is much more ideal than what you have already. It sounds like a step in the right direction and I hope it's given enough of a chance to be seen as such.

Wii Fit says...
... you must've had a great week-end, 'cause you're like 2kg heavier than when I last saw you!
Admittedly it was a great week-end.
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) viridis_ama suggested that we celebrate 4 years of being together by doing something special on the week-end, so we sort've did a wedding-brunch redux. As many folks know, the Hotel Fort Garry serves a most amazing Sunday brunch... but the price can be a bit prohibitive.
We found a suitable alternative which is the regular Fort Garry breakfast, which for $17 a plate is a buffet of pastries, cereal, fruit (though nothing exotic), and an omelet station where you can get eggs of any style, including eggs Benedict.
Which we did.
After breakfast we got together with my sister and brother-in-law and went to the IMAX to see Hubble 3D and Wild Ocean 3D, following that off by supper at Fortune Cooking.
It was all really good, except for the waist-line. Now, to pay the piper for the rest of the week!
current mood:  cheerful

I just noticed that I keep my clove cigarettes right next to the Depeche Mode albums... COINCIDENCE? And they smell faintly of cloves now.

Sigil: "So then they make another movie. Uh oh. what are you going to do? Can't name it Aliens's."
me: Alienses! We hates them, precious!
Sigil: (grin)
me: With their tongues all bitesy and nasssty!
Sigil: a neverending parade of greedy corporate/military types trying to capture aliens to use for their own purposes.
me: As each of them goes down, the pool of available antagonists grows thinner... recruiters from the NFL, the 'Red Lobster' people...
Sigil: (snickers)
Sigil: The customer service industry.
me: Minty Blast Fast

whew - back from Dorsai Thing - tiered. Not sure I got much sleep.
Made mini dragons at the con. Got all the teens to make dragons. Interested a bunch of adults - but they were all busy with other things.
Did a watercolor picture for the cost of a slurpeee... Mmmmmm. It was a good slurpee.

"Why do I always draw right up to what I want to say?"
I'm not certain, but I do know that I got my first listen to a track from the Weakerthan's live album. Unlike other live recordings (which I often like), this one has the extra-specialness of me actually being at this concert when it was recorded.
I think I like the live video of the band performing Tournament of Hearts more than the "studio" video (no embedding video from this site).
The studio version is amusing, but I find my problem with it is that it's a little too literal for me. Though I do rather like the intermixing of historic curling footage.
The again, I'm often easily amused.
current mood:  anxious
current music: Weakerthans, The - Tournament of Hearts
