I made beans

I ate beans, after consulting the Internet first to make certain that I can just put beans in a pot and heat it. After seeing I could put it cold in a salad I figured I wouldn’t get poisened in any weird way. So that was my dinner. I didn’t have chilli with it either. After that started cooking I found the cookies which I had originally wanted for dinner along with milk.

People in bathrooms make some weird sounds, I prefer to use the can in one of the busier washrooms at work since the stall has more leg room and when some people go pee pee they make some pretty weird groaning sounds. I hope I don’t get old and have nice shoes.

Apparently I am weird because of my fear of hand dryers. My fear is actually that a swarm of baby spiders that would be nesting in the hand dryer will come out covering my hands and arms and crawl all over my body of afterwards. Some people think this is a silly fear. Through Google I have found two others with my fear one also fears

He was scared of hand dryers in public loos.
He still is scared of the flush in aeroplane toilets (loud and sudden noise)
He is scared of dogs he doesn’t know …
He is scared of the dark.
He has grown out of most of the noise fears now though (he is 6 and a half)
He also used to be terrified of people in costumes at parties … clowns, giant animal costumes etc etc.
According to his mommy.

The other
Until recently, DS (5) had an irrational fear of hand dryers.
According to his mom.

I feel for them, poor kids. The road in life doesn’t get any easier, you start to imagine all kinds of things coming out of there.

Right at this moment I am in bed with my feet on the mattress and knees in the air, because the cat is cold he is under my legs which are under the blanket. He can be so cute sometimes.

On Friday I shall be going to the Fr!nge festival at Laurier. Should be fun although a couple of plays this year sound boring. Hopefully there won’t be a play on numerology this year.

It is not easier than you think

Scotia Bank fucking sucks, I really do hate them. I set up my card for online banking, reset the password and than get kicked out saying that I have to call in and get set for Scotia Online. it seems many years ago when I left the bank due to them charging me fees for an empty account that I did not use I got them to close my account. I wanted to open one to get some mutal funds so I would need a banking account. They only have one ‘free’ banking account with no monthly charges. However it only comes with the ability to remove money from the account twice a month, and moving money from that account to a Mutal Fund counts as a transaction. That is so fucking useless, I have no idea why people bother to put up with that or any of it. Monthly fees and having every transaction taxed. Basically every account of theirs has a monthly fee.

I signed up for a CIBC account through PC Financial, it will cost $24 a year but at least this way I can easily move money into a fund at regular intervals, I am still pissed about it. I assume and hope that the management fees are at least less, probably not, they do make more money than Scotia.

Some people have said the roads really weren’t that bad, I haven’t really gone out to take a look though but there is still a lot of bad shit happening out there on the highway.

I put together my BBQ, I think the igniter bits are installed correctly, we’ll see in about 3 months time I guess, probably 4-5 actually. One of the legs wasn’t cut very cleanly and had a bit of metal inside of it that I needed a hammer to get a plastic piece in, overall not bad. Still kind of small but I’ll be mostly doing hot dogs and hamburgers anyways so it’ll be fine.

My sister has left on vacation so her kids are staying here for what I assume is one week. This is going to be loud and unpleasant, I did get them to help fill my fish tank to the top again, the water dropped in temperature quite a bit, I hope they can cope.

Plant Destruction

Kitty decided that he would have fun the last few days and tear apart the already dead aloe plant that is still planted. The other day he tore off a leaf and went running through the house with it. Yesterday he uprooted the whole plant again and made a huge mess in the kitchen with it. He was not only walking around with it but also playing with it and made sure to knock all of the dirt from the roots onto the floor. When he was done he went into the hall and gave his something horrible has happened meow until my parents finally came up the stairs to see what the matter was. The last few times he used that meow was when he knocked a vase off the fridge and when he knocked a ball off the tree. At least he know when to alert us to stuff.

Looks like I am not going into work today. I never realized before that the weather website has a seperate picture specifically for ice pellets. The roads look pretty bad and a traffic report said that the 401 was closed from Guelph to Cambridge due to weather, not traffic accidents or anything, they just thought the road was that bad, Westbound at least, Eastbound was still open apparently. This way at least I won’t have to put up with the temptation of eating at the Pizza Hut buffet today. Wednesday to Friday were especially bad as if I just realized the food I bring to lunch suck and that it is so close by and could fill me up so I won’t need another meal which is kind of important on Mondays. I was able to fight it off but it was hard to do sadly. I watched the clock and kept revaluating my hunger situation, was that a grumble, will this sandwich quench my hunger, pizza bread is so delcious.

Kathy and I have been nerding it up playing scrabble as of late, I hope it keeps my mind sharp I am paranoid that it may be slipping at my young tender age.

Rubber Eel
At the fish store on Saturday we saw these happy little guys swimming around, there were a lot of them actually in the tank and they were all just on top of eachother, it looked weird but they looked really neat and reminded me of my beloved rope snake. Unfortunately at $20 a pop and my current expenses I had to turn myself away from them.

After spending 45$ on a dance pad that can be used on all systems since we haven’t been able to find one prviously that was cheap and worked with the cube I find one for 15 bucks at Toys R Us. Saturday a grand adventure was had riding from Waterloo to the end of kitchener and than all the way to the other end of Waterloo. We only stopped into a few stores but the trip lasted 4/5 hours.

Maybe I’ll put the BBQ together today.

I slept in today. Either I was so asleep that I hit the alarm off and fell back to sleep in one motion or the cat turned off the alarm and than went to sleep downstairs on a backpack. He seems to like it, it is his nest away from his nest.

No DDR today for me, I read a chapter of which I didn’t completely understood andhelp my nephew with SOHCAHTOA. This took entirely too long as he had trouble moving variables from one side to the other and thought sin 30 was a variable. He won’t be building any silos any time soon.

I got a radio that an iPod can be pugged into, the box looks really cheap and the feature list on the side had two stickers over some features that were printed on the box that this product doesn’t apparently have. I also got a pretty pimped out tri pod, at least a sturdier one compared to my portable one. It has levels on it, I am so excited, and a crank.

Now I shall set my second alarm clock tonight and hope I wake tomorrow.

Kitty is a weird one

Sunday night the cat was laying on his back looking at the ceiling in the hallway. Some light and shadows appeared and danced on the ceiling a bit from the tv in the other room and he was completely taken in by it. It took a long time before anyone realized what he was actually doing.

Friday I ate at the Mandrin and i think it will be the last time in quite a while, it didn’t seem worth it to me, I guess it is too filling although the service is really good. I guess for the price you can’t go too wrong so maybe again.

Sunday I was invited to sra’s birthday party extravaganza where she cooked for all, except me. It was probably for the best from what I saw on the plates it looked good, just not good for dean, I mean there were carrots. Carrots should remain in the bedroom. When I went there I didn’t think of two things that could have been important, where to park and how to get home. That was easy enough to solve so no biggy. I felt really out of place there, especially since I haven’t really spoken or talked to any of those people, oh well I loosened up a bit near the end. Near the beginning I was panicing on the inside. If the party was in Waterloo or someplace where I knew the surroundings a bit better I might have tried to slip out, heh.

My class on Monday felt pretty much like all my other night classes. About an hour until it finishes and I just keep watching the clock. I did do the homework today although I procastinated a lot before starting it. Tomorrow I have to read for next class and than Thursday I can try the questions. I don’t have much time to myself with just work and this class, I sure am glad I didn’t take two. Than again I am trying to have my weekends free.

My bill’s frighten me. I still need to shave : /

Yes I am sick now, with now being yesterday around 4 when I noticed my throat feeling a little scratchy. It felt a little better after a litre of ice cream but this morning I feel much worse. I don’t think the chinease buffet helped any creating all sorts of grossness. At least I’m not throwing up yet but I did have harvey’s so that is still has a good chance of happening. I really should stop eating there at any Harvey’s I don’t know what they do but the burgers don’t look to be made from the greatest materials, too much filler and too precooked or dried out or something, it is just gross. I wish Laurier would get a Manchu Wok, they pretty much make the only chicken I will voluntarily and happily eat other than the chicken strips I make myself. That isn’t saying much I guess.

I feeel so drained and tired today, work is going to suck next week and so will class. It is part 2 and I had part 1 of this class 4 years ago, that probably isn’t a good thing. I didn’t think of that before, Christ I hope I can do this.

My head sort of hurts from work but sort of not. I should get some more sleep to help fight off infection from the superbug or the super flu.
I picked up my BBQ today, it looks like shit, well the box does but hopefully it is all there. I got a $40 bag of cat food too, I think I got a tad overcharged, it was for 20 pounds though.
DDR Extreme 2 is pissing me off, the ‘Normal’ Mode is fucking hard, fuck sakes, I thought half steps were bad, they have even faster steps in this.

And now Random Pics I have taken over the last 10 days just because I noticed Picasa made it easy.

Another day, another headache and another day of no exercise. I think this one is due to sleep and eyestrain.

After having 10 days off work I really don’t feel like working. Driving into work I just fantasized about pplaying the lotto. I could feel the cold clammy frip of Gamblor. Luckily I was no where near his neon claws yet he calls out for me. I was thinking of if I needed anything at the store so I could stop by and lay down my hard earned money for hope of a better tomorrow…for me. Luckily the Jiffy Lube didn’t have a kiosk either, but that was surprising since they have cleaned up that place a lot. It is my second time going there and I am still amazed at how over the top the building is.

Almost

My neices were playing baseball on the Wii and almost got us added to the list of tv’s broken. The younger one was spazzing out and even though she has been fanatical about keeping the wriststrap on it still got loose and she let go of the controller and it went flying towards to the tv. Luckily, very luckily it hit the stand beneathe of it. I was in the kitchen playing Scrabble when all of a sudden boom was heard. She has been hiding in one of the bedrooms for a couple of hours now embarrassed over it and feeling dissappointed I guess. I went up and told her that the tv is now flickering on and off with some smoke coming out of the stand. Later I came up to tell her that my parents were crying because the tv was almost broken. I still haven’t been able to find the other battery from the wii’s remote. I hope it still works at least.

My $10 comforter smells very badly, I assume cargo crates and China smell very bad.
