I'm neglecting the site again!!!
Happy Tuesday!!!
I feel like nothing and everything has happened since I last posted. Let's see what I can remember now . . .
Alright, so "Faramir's" school friend, the Hong Kong out-of-towner (whom we shall designate OOT:HK) was in Vancouver all week and I got to show her around a bunch of places. That took up a fair bit of the week. She left on Saturday and is now with her host mom in Washington state.
Picked up a couple DVDs over the week. "Moulin Rouge" (the 2-disc version) and "Sharpe's Eagle". I've watched the latter thus far (great episode in the series), and really need to get on top of my other watchings. Heh . . . and yet we keep getting more and more DVDs . . . . . seriously, we need more shelves!
My brother picked up "Dragonball Z: Budokai 3" for PS2. 'Tis a silly game. I've also decided that "Dragonball Z" fits into that category of stuff that you can always go back to and watch no matter what. You accept all its shortcomings, you accept how absolutely banal it can actually be . . . but it's comfort food, so you'll always have a part of you that can never hate it.
While on the subject of anime, I ended up watching a lot of "Sailor Moon" on YouTube over the week. I really can't give a good reason why . . . it started off as research of sorts, but then I just kept watching . . . I dunno, it's really funny a lot of the time!
The Saturday before Mother's Day was especially taxing for me at work. If you may recall, part of my job involves working in the flower shop at Superstore . . . . . well, flowers + Mother's Day = about five million bouquets of flowers. T'was a busy day that day . . . and then I ran out of scotch tape at the very end for wrapping flowers. It was scary. On the plus side I didn't have to work on the actual Mother's Day . . . . .
. . . . . Mother's Day at the house turned out to be in a similar style to our other big holiday dinner things, where a few dozen people come over for a party-type thing. Since it was also someone's birthday, my mom hired a catering service as well . . . that said, there's a lot of food in the fridge now. As for the mother herself, the brothers and I pitched together to get her a really nice (and somewhat pricey) bracelet. Going by the "wahhh!" around the table of other mothers, I'm guessing it was a nice one.
While on the subject of brothers, the older one found himself looking up Canadian Army type stuff on the internet that night after dinner . . . . .
. . . oh, quick tangent: my older brother the police officer recently got an Emergency Response Team position! This excites many of us . . . for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, ERT is basically SWAT but with 3 letters. So yeah, exciting . . . anyway, back to the webpage . . . . .
. . . so yeah, again he made the implication for me to look into the Army Reserves or something. And let's face it, I AM gonna need to start working a little more seriously now that I'm done school . . . . . and there's no doubt that I do have an interest in pursuing this matter . . . . . ah man . . . I need to get my ass in gear or something . . . get my ass in gear, and learn to run 2.4km in about 12 minutes . . . I think . . . . .
Meanwhile, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Capslock of Rage(TM)" continues to eat up all my night hours. Harry's dad was an asshole. This amuses me. I need to finish that soon . . .
. . . . Red! Are you online or no?! I've been meaning to talk to you for a while now! And if not, I mailed you that thing yesterday finally!
. . . . . rest of you, don't forget to watch "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya!"
I think that pretty much covers it. Am I missing anything?
Random SomeGuy Trivia: I live on the same street and a block away from my elementary school. I've lived on this street in New Westminster for a very long time . . .
