   Dead trees on rough terrain/
With rocks to keep your eyes on/
Dark clouds threaten rain..." -The Trews (Why Bother)

***Who's uber-glad she bought the album House of Ill-Fame?! I am!***

Status of paper = pretty much done. I have one footnote left to put in, but the book is way downstairs and I'm not going down and then coming up again. It's about 14 pages long and about 3050 words long. Just about right, after I cut a few things out. heheh.. The very last thing to do will be to make a title page. And I can't think of a good title. I'll sleep on it I guess... And then I will QUIT TALKING ABOUT IT!! Haha! *shifty eyes* until I get my grade back, that is... Pray for me? (yes, I realize I am once again asking you to pray for the atheist... XD ) Ahhhhh, it'll be fine. Can't get much worse anyways.

So I've been noticing that it takes for-frickin'-ever for my page to load. And I have to hit 'reload' an AWFUL lot of times. Anyone else notice this? Is it just my page or what? Ehhhh.. I think I'm going to go sleep a little. Oh, hey, if anyone can think me up a catchy title (for the 'you know what') GOLD STAR for YOU! Have a good one..

   "She's walking down the street/
Blind to every eye she meets/
Do you think you'll be the guy/
To make the queen of the angels sigh?/
Hello, I love you/
Won't you tell me your name?/
Hello, I love you/
Let me jump in your game..." -The Doors (Hello, I Love You)

Status of paper = Almost there.. I have two or three things left that I want to discuss, but now I only have about 700 words left to do it in. Hmmm.. but there's probably some stuff I should take out, so I think it'll be alright. Still, I have to wonder how he'd feel about a 4000 word paper... It has been THE longest one I've ever had to write, but admittedly one of the easier. Here's hoping for a good grade. I was told that there is some kind of Department of Religious Studies Summit (or something) being held in the spring, and if this paper turns out really well, there is a chance that it could be presented there. Wow, eh? I doubt it'll be that good, but you never know..

Last day of History of R'n'R today. We talked about The Doors, hence the lyrics.. When the prof played all the song clips, I realized that I knew all the songs, but just never knew that it was The Doors that sang them! Haha! Anywho, I was interested today anyways because back in Jr. High (heheh.. ages and ages ago...) some friends and I had some adventures with a ouija board, and we were convinced that we had been talking to Jim Morrisson. Hahahah! So the name 'Jim' became kind of a running joke from that point. So, ouija boards: cool or evil? Personally, I can't see how something with the trademark "Parker Bros." stamped on it could be evil, but who knows.. Maybe the Parker Brothers ARE evil. Maybe that should have been the topic of my paper.. "Evil Board Games and Their Makers". I can see it now... A+!

   "Well it's 40 below and I don't give a s***/
Got a heater in my truck and I'm off to the rodeo/
And it's Alabama left Alabama right/
Come on ya f***in' dummy get your right step right/
Get off the stage ya god damn goof ya know..." -Gary Lee and The Showdown (The Rodeo Song)

It's a rude song, I know it. And not quite relevant as it is only 30 below here. But that is still stinkin' COLD! Especially with the wind.. Ehhhh....

Status of paper = good. In class today we talked about the book of Revelation, so the guest speaker decided it would be a good idea to peruse the internet and see who was being accused of being the Antichrist today. Hahahaha! *whispers* It's mostly George Bush.. Aaaanyways..

Yeah, so when it comes to my paper.. Revelation is a bloody goldmine! After scanning through it twice, I found three or four things I can actully USE! Yessssss... Can't wait for this one to be over.. have a good one kids..

   "I've been thinking 'bout everyone/
Everyone, you look so lonely/
But when I look at the stars/
When I look at the stars/
When I look at the stars/
I see someone else/
When I look at the stars, the stars/
I feel like myself..." -Switchfoot (Stars)

Well, I've been in "off" mode for a few days. Sorry 'bout that, I've got my reasons.. Not to mention that it's a distraction from my stinkin' homework! Gah! The good news is I've got about 1300 words down. I have not yet run out of things to talk about. If I need inspiration, all I have to do is go and pop Lord of the Rings in the DVD player and something'll hit me... we hope...

It was a decent weekend, I guess. Spent most of Saturday working on that paper.. and then I got a call at around 7:00pm from a friend. It was her birthday, and I'm a crappy friend and I FORGOT even though we had talked about it on the phone the week before.. So they all went to "Name That Tune" and I went and met them at the house party later on. I gave her one of my trademark "squishy pillows". I will not tell where I buy them. Takes the mystery out of 'em. And then we all proceeded to drink our faces off. Someone invited this girl who was just totally obnoxious all night long. Ya know, the kind that laughs unnecessarily loudly... *sigh* Oh well.. It was important that I went anyways. Because now I have a ride to the BIG x-mas party in the big city!

Sita - hope the SNAFU gets all sorted out. Don't worry, be happy. 20 days until the homemade Baileys starts flowin'...

   "And you may ask yourself/
What is that beautiful house?/
And you may ask yourself/
Where does that highway go?/
And you may ask yourself/
Am I right?...Am I wrong?/
And you may tell yourself/
MY GOD!...WHAT HAVE I DONE?..." -Talking Heads (Once In a Lifetime)

Yeah, I know that one is way oldschool, but I like it...

It would seem once again that I have not been clear on what's going on.. I have not quit my job (heh..yet), I AM still Union Steward, but I need a replacement now so that when I do get the hell out of there someone will be trained to do it and not just be tossed in without a damn clue. Things don't look good... and that dosen't make me happy. Bloody apathetic people..

Y'know.. one of my coworkers told me today that every time she sees me, she thinks I look like I'm about to cry (probably 'cause I am). And that she's not the only one who's noticed it. So I guess I need to do a better job of hiding how upset I am, eh?

And just to pour a little salt in the wound.. I'm pretty sure I bombed a History of RnR test this morning. Yeah, it was a lot of "name the titles of the songs, the albums on which they were released and then place the albums in the chronological order in which they were released, beginning with the earliest." *jaw drop* Joking right? No. And I frigging hate Bob Dylan...

Two more weeks... two more weeks... two more weeks...Happy Friday guys..

   "We're a riddle in 9 syllables/
Black and white and gray all over/
She smiles and looks at me/
Bathed in waves of static cover/
I've got a notion to escape this ocean/
I'm tired of crawling through the same old emotions/
Refrains of empathy /
Distorting throug an 8 bit fog..." -J. Englishman (Breaking Down)

I think I've used this song before.. But I don't give a damn. I like it. In fact, I think I should just make this J. Englishman week...

Anywho.. The Queen strikes again..
SuperCon!: (to Guest91) Hey you!
Guest91: hi
SuperCon!: I've been meaning to ask you, do you like anime?
Guest91: yes
SuperCon!: Me too! Oh, except Hamtaro... Stupid hamsters...
Guest91: i know it replaced sailor moon
SuperCon!: Yeah, and I'm the Queen of England!
Guest91: your rude
SuperCon!: Hm. Thanks for that...

Pretty uneventful day.. Went to class.. for once.. *headdesk* I NEED to start writing this paper, but I have not the motivation to do it.. If I don't at least START it by Friday... I'll be doomed... and wouldn't that be ironic, people?

Three more people quit today. Yes, annoying girl was one of them, but the other two I rather liked. So I'm sad. If it weren't for five people.. I'd be gone too, but I'm holding on because I can't just leave them with that shit. So it looks like after I plan this Christmas party, the Party Fund gets blown. Because nobody seems to want to help. Nobody seems to care. I will sorely miss working with my Union rep. He's been awesome. I have no idea who will replace me as Union steward, since nobody seems to care to do that either. It's sucking the life out of me...

Winn, if you read today, I did put a new picture up.. Pretty much just for you, since I know nobody else will bother to look... but whatever.. Take good care, kids..

   "Don't let 'em tell you that there's too much noise/
They're too old to really understand/
You'll still get rowdy with the girls and boys/
'Cause it's time for you to take a stand, yeah, yeah/
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud/
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud..." -KISS (Shout It Out Loud)

Good news and bad news....

The bad news is that it has finally started snowing here... I had to actually use my snow brush today to brush my truck off to get to work. I wish I had known it was going to snow, so that I could have plugged it in too. But, alas.. It always seems to start up pretty well though, even in the dead of winter, when it's 40 below. I love my little truck... *heart*

And now on to the good news.... I heard today, and straight from her own mouth might I add, that Annoying Girl has a job interview! Someplace ELSE! Yessssssssss... Now hopefully she gets it. That only leaves me with the problem of who's going to be my Social Club VP.. Or maybe I'll just have to blow the whole account on something and that'll be the end of Social Club.. Which would be sad.. But I could spend that cash on redoing the staff room. New Floor tiles, new tables and chairs.. We'll have to wait and see..

On another note.. my mother just told her computer (The iMac!!) that it sucks. Hahahahahah! I've been telling it that forever!! And she used to always defend it when I said that... I WIN! I think my work here is done... Have a good one guys and girls..

   "It's a shame we have to die, my dear/
No one's getting out of here alive/
This time/
What a way to go but have no fear/
No one's getting out of here alive/
This time..." -The Foo Fighters (DOA)

Strange that I would pick that song tonight.. I watched the "Fall Finale" (so they call it) of Prison Break tonight. AWEsome. As usual. An hour or two before it came on, I was chatting to Kevin about it (he's a fan too, but not a fanatic like me..) and I was willing to bet that they wouldn't make it out tonight. And he was like "but there's a whole 36 hours until the execution!" So I reconsidered. If I had stuck to my guns, I'd be up five virtual bucks right now.. I thought it was going to be the END of the season, but they tricked us. There's more on the way I guess.. Yay!

Anyways, I skipped class today. Both of them. Sat around and drank tea and watched Trading Spaces and While You Were Out all afternoon. It was nice. But it's just one more day I'll have to catch up on... Whatever. I've got to take a web test sometime in the next few days. Put my Beatles and Rolling Stones knowledge to good use, as well as my natural talent for BSing. Heheh.. That's pretty much the way to get through all exams. BS. I can't wait to be finished..

   "First thing we'd climb a tree/
And maybe then we'd talk/
Or sit silently/
And listen to our thoughts/
With illusions of someday/
Casting a golden light/
No dresss rehersal/
This is our life..." -The Tragically Hip (Ahead By A Century)

The good news is that the few litres of orange juice I drank yesterday have pretty much knocked out the cold symptoms. Throat is still a little bit sore, but not as bad, so yay.

The collage I'm working on is pretty much just a piece of poster board, and on it, I am glueing random pictures that I have snipped out of magazines. I do it maybe once a year. I spend all year long collecting the coolest of the cool photography that I find, andthen I put it all together to make a poster. Looks cool. I'll try to remember to take a picture when it's done.

I'm a little distracted as I'm typing this. I'm busy yelling at the TV. I'm watching Kenny vs. Spenny and it always makes me so mad because Kenny always cheats and then Spenny always loses the competition. *sigh* You just have to cheer though when Spenny finally does win.

Rude. But produced by the CBC, so whatever. Heheh.. Happy Monday guys and girls..
