  • coffee


    today i am going for coffee with a friend who i have not hung out with in some time. this some time is .. at least a few weeks, but for some reason it feels like way longer than that.
    every time we go for coffee it is really enjoyable. this person has a different perspective than me on a lot of things, which i really appreciate. i have found our conversations to be refreshing and sometimes even inspiring.
    when we go for coffee, i usually drink tea. going for coffee doesn’t mean drinking coffee. it just means going to a coffee shop, or a reasonable facsimile, to socialize and ingest discussion or general blatherings. that is what it means to me, anyways. does anyone have any other definitions?
    it used to be that i’d go for coffee, get wired up on cheap denny’s coffee, and engage in nonsensical banter about whatever. i’ve been a lot nicer to my tummy lately, not drinking nearly as much coffee. every now and then i have one, but i definitely feel it in my stomache later. meh.
    jim just mentioned to me via ICQ that winter is upon us. in victoria, winter means straight up really boring miserable weather and chances of sleet and slush. bah! give me snow, heaps of it!

    taken outside my office about an hour ago. πŸ™‚

  • wheeeeeeeeeee!


    work was a blast today. we took tonnnnes of pictures and worked on a mega powerpoint presentation.
    leet.
    i am going to go to ben’s place and we’re going to spin records. we usually shoutcast, so if that happens i’ll be posting the url here in about half an hour. πŸ™‚
    later tonight i’m going to go see 8 mile. i don’t really have any idea how this movie got 4 stars in the local paper, but i guess that makes it worth checking out, just to see what all the hubbub is aboot.
    wootah!

  • popular?


    i was giving presentations in Sooke Elementary yesterday when I saw this sign.
    nice. so where does the curriculum focus on this subject of “right”? Great message, but I wonder how safe it is to explore that topic in those grades.
    top two interactions at today’s booth in Family Food Mart:
    1) old man approaches ketchup bottle stand beside our booth. iDawg tries to initiate conversation. iDawg smiles, and then says “i like ketchup too!” old man stares for a second, and then hobbles away.
    2) two young (15ish) girls approach the booth and start talking to me. “are you selling laptops?” they ask. i respond “no, we’re giving away lightbulbs.” one girl smiles and asks “for how much?”
    hahahaha

  • sleep is good

  • entry 106

    the potluck was awesome. lots of fun. rodney did an excellent job, was an uber host, and someone even voted for my casarole as being the best dish there! yay! i voted for the sushi though. mmmm that was super.
    seems lately i’ve been visiting people and people have been playing host. i can not say that i am sure what that means, if anything. i think it could explain my recent desire to have all my co-workers over for a similar potluck-type-dinner.
    when i was in vancouver i picked up the new bjork – greatest hits CD. i also got the U2 – greatest hits double CD. how can you tell that i’ve been buying records the last few years and not CDs? catching up..
    the bjork CD has isobel on it, one of my all-time favorite songs. and human behavior. elite. perhaps i should be putting this CD in the stereo instead of simply posessing it. eh? heh.
    oops.
    i have to be up in 7 hours. i thought i had to be at work for 10 am. doh. feck.
    well i’m going to lie down and see if bjork can wash away this mood i am in. i have to confess that i have always been a bigger fan of the production on bjork’s songs than her voice in particular. is that wrong? who produces this stuff? hmm time to find out.
    isobel: written by bjork, nellee hooper, marius de vries and sigur jon birgir.
    human behaviour: written by bjork & nellee hooper
    hyperballad: written by bjork, produced by bjork & nellee hooper.
    it would seem that she is in cohoots with this ‘nellee hooper’ person!
    startling.
    and now..
    ..words: human behaviour

    if you ever get close to a human
    and human behaviour
    be ready to get confused
    there’s definitely no logic
    to human behaviour
    but yet so irristible
    there’s no map
    to human behaviour
    they’re terribly moody
    then all of a sudden turn happy
    but, oh, to get involved in the exchange
    of human emotions is ever so satisfying
    there’s no map
    and a compass
    wouldn’t help at all

  • pot luck

    lot puck!
    I’ve made some crazy casarole (sp??) with alfredo and cheese and pasta and woohoo!!!
    time to go πŸ™‚

  • feeling pretty distant

    tonight i arrived back from vancouver
    but i didn’t feel like i was home
    i still don’t.
    vancouver was awesome and superrelaxing. kind of confusing though. last time i went there, i didn’t feel like there was anything left in that city for me. this time i am questioning how much there isn’t in victoria for me.
    dev0n was a supreme hostess and had me drinking root BEER pretty much as soon as I got there. we saw 2 omnimax films. did you know that an omnimax film screen in Science World is just over 1000 square metres? that is 10% of a hectare! that’s a pretty big screen.
    overall the trip was needed and it was entirely zope.
    i would post pictures. .but i don’t have any.
