    Weekly Wrap Up (Apr. 28 - May 4)

    By wildone

    Any and all spelling and grammar mistakes are fully mine and not the fault of my editors. Maybe I should think about getting an editor for once   Today, as in this afternoon I went to the Calgary International Beer Fest. Over 200 Craft breweries with over 700 types of beers, spirits, ciders and meads 😮 Oh my. Considered the largest in Canada and one of the top 5 in the world. Somehow I had a few shots of moonshine too!  I may or nay not be a bit tipsy  If I had the foresight, I could h

BULLSHIT

I just wasted 2 hours of my life watching a documentary about a whining, drugged out little bitch called Jack Smith and the Destruction of Atlantis   It is about this freak of a producer that makes BULLSHIT, I mean art, that no one understands, cares about or wants to watch.   He bitches and whines the whole time about the evils of capitalism through the entire documentry film while he makes this weird BULLSHIT that he calls art that no one wants.   He talks about squeezing art out of him

Trying to get on a Plane with Drugs

Why the f**k would you try to get on a plane with suitcases, briefcases, etc. with drugs anywhere in the world? It's like people have f**king holes in their heads. You're not going to get away with it anywhere. Yet, people still try it. Hell, you're not even likely to get away with swallowing balloons full of drugs, and it's dangerous to do so. Are people stuck on stupid or something? Does anyone actually know of anyone who's actually gotten away with it in recent times?

Another One Bites the Dust

I've come to the conclusion that I pretty much suck at summing events up. Good thing I have no aspirations to be a Journalist at any point. I better keep this in mind so I do not become a biographer as well. I was supposed to be camping over the weekend, and for the most part I was. For the most part. We left early friday morning. and set out for my uncles house. Got there at 5:00 am the agreed meeting time. The house was dark. Usually there are two other trucks there and and people are shuffl

What The Buck?

For the last year or so, I've been subscribed to the Buck Hollywood channel on You Tube. It's probably my favorite channel along with SXE Phil and the Shaytards. I don't really feel like talking about politics this time because the whole health care fight makes me sad. To think that the level of the debate has sunk down to the point of republicans taking about death panels and comparing Obama to Hitler, while Nancy Pelosi compares the town hall protesters to Timothy McVeigh, the terrorist who mu

makin' up my mind

Haven't blogged in a while, nothing interesting has really happened. But I wanted to share a couple things.     I went to Disneyland today, haven't been in a year or two. That place is fun after edibles. I met this kid who was 16 and was already a senior in college, graduating this upcoming year as a computer programming/engineer major. Blew my mind. I have a 3 day pass thing so we're probably going back like Wednesday, maybe the crowds will die down. Disney is annoying, I hate their media gr

Not really "tomorrow"

Gotta remember to stop making promises in my blog, like "I'll post tomorrow" - heh.   ANYWAYS...   So - the doctor visit LAST WEEK went relatively well. Dr Arai was still happy with my progress, only thing was, I also got a dose of reality at the same time. I had been hoping that I might be able to go back to work in say, early September. So I brought it up as far as - "I know the schedule says I can go back to work after 5-6 months, but what about earlier". I knew I was in trouble as I

A Long Awaited Update LG

Not sure if anyone still cares, which is totally my fault for putting it off for this long. But for those who do, Last Goodbye Chapter 7 has just been finished and will be headed to my editor very soon. Also i just wanted to say sorry to those who were waiting for this chapter for soo long. Real life took over me during the summer like it does every summer and things just got a little out of hand. But I have a lot more time now, even with school approaching fast I'll have a lot more time for LG

The End

Well, I guess it was inevitable that The Artists would end early. After a nine month hiatus, strings become frayed and some brake unexpectedly. There just didn't seem to be sufficient need to go on because it could've gone on. The story was setup to go on for at least the four years the freshmen, Six and Casey, had ahead of them. But, it wasn't to be. Sometimes life just gets in the way of what you're doing.   So why give Casey HIV? I suppose to kill him off, too, so that future stories, if

Something weird that still haunts me

September 8, 2001: Was an ordinary Saturday. I worked on my truck. I grilled some burgers and had some friends over for supper.   My next door neighbor Lori and I sat on her front porch and talked about nothing until midnight.   I went to bed and had one of the worst f*ing nightmares of my life. I still remember fragments of it.   I saw a face I can only describe as cruel and hateful. His eyes were dark and the face was angry. I could see the eyes as two pinpoints of red light.   Then I

School Certification

Okay so I lied, I won't be going for my A+/MCP/CCNA. It turns out that Brookdale offers a better course then that for the same amount of money, which my Grant covers.   The program which I will be starting is the MCSA/A+/Network+ Certification course... which means I can be the uber computer geek I always knew I could be lol.   Well... i'm off to blow up my printer... I need to start getting stuff done for school... which is in 1 month

Gigantic Penis

Today was very eventful: Got my school id. Went jogging. Bought a planner. Ate free pizza. Helped fix the elevator at work. Went to the beach. Assisted in making a gigantic penis. Then watched the wave take out one of it's balls. Today was a good day. Picture Below!

History Repeating Itself

In 1993, the democrats were in complete control of Washington. They had picked up huge majorities in the 1992 trouncing of George H W Bush by Bill Clinton, and Hillary Clinton was working hard on national healthcare. At the same time, an unpopular trade treaty called NAFTA was being forced down the throats of Americans. The democrat controlled congress and the democrat president pushed it through. While that was happening, a seemingly tone-deaf congress pushed through a vicious tax increase on t

Assorted grumbles

I have been irritable lately and I don't know why.   That is a lie, I know exactly why, but there is little to be done in the situation. All I can do is face the facts, no matter how distasteful they are, and move on I guess. Shame really, but it does reinforce certain long standing truths. When people are pressuring you to do something, something that you know in your gut is going to backfire in exactly the way you don't want it. Just don't do it, listen to your gut beyond anyone else.

Hate Crimes against LGBT People

Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered people have long been victims of hate. Before the Stonewall Riots of 1969, gay people were arrested even for being in gay bars. The police intimidated gay people endlessly, and coming out of the closet could mean finding oneself being sent to an asylum. Until around 1973, the APA considered being gay as a psychological disorder, meaning that gay people were considered insane. Thus, gay people were subjected to such treatments as shock therapy and othe

An update...I guess.

So J is in a mental hospital and has been for a week or so. But its not my problem cause he isnt my friend. A while ago he went behind my back and talked shit about me to a mutual friend, who I was, at the time, messing around with. That person then told me and I confronted Jon about it. He said that everything he told Shawn (the guy I was f**king) was the truth, that I really was insane and untrustworthy and evil, and that he wouldnt ever mess around with anyone like me. Lets ignore the fac

Julie and Julia

Amazing movie, it was so touching and rewarding to watch. The love of food, the social and political backgrounds of the people, and the rich tapestry of human history. It was delightful and real.   I will admit, I am foodie. I love different cuisines and I have a strong palate for sauces. My favorite is the subtle textural differences in sauces; those combination are so interesting.   The movie also made me think about my own creativity as an author; Why have I slowed down my writing? I work

Thoughts of A Senior-Year Nothing

Okay. So I'm looking out over my senior year, and I came to a realization.   If I want any chance of getting into grad school, I've GOT to get my grades up.   My grades have been slowly going in the right direction- from an absolutely abbysmal 2.134 GPA for fall 2007(depression sucks), my accumulative GPA is now standing at a 2.42 after spring 2009 and summer 2009, thanks to a 2.867 and a 2.6something for those semesters. Still mediocre, but at least going in the right di

Messy rooms breed more clutter

I've spent the past week finishing up projects and doing a bunch of late-summer cleaning, and it struck me that the whole organization/de-cluttering thing is really futile. This time we managed to get the entire upstairs cleaned, including the teenager's room, and that takes some doing. Three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, an office, dining room, great room, kitchen, kitchen nook, foyer, and laundry room, all clean, all organized. Plus the garage, the porch, and the deck. Downstairs, in

It's been awhile!

Wow, it's been awhile since I last blogged, but then again, life has been keeping me busy (and so has World of Warcraft). Just cus I've been quiet on Chat and the boards doesn't mean I haven't been around, just.... lurking really     Anyway...   I'm going back to school, vocational school that is. I got a grant to go for my A+/MCP/CCNA certification which is geek speak for being able to fix computers, network homes and small businesses, and troubleshoot windows. It's a good course which sh

This Woman is 8 Kinds of Awesome

I cheated a little this week. Before I go buy a book, I'm supposed to write a short story. I need not publish it, show it to any one, or even keep the file, but I do need to write it. This gives me an extra incentive to write, plus it makes me feel that I've really earned what is pretty much my own indulgence in life (Starbucks not counting, as the coffee served at work should be poured back into the cleanser bottle where it can actually serve a useful purpose).   However, Sarah Rees Brennan,

Teaser: THOR

THOR     The cryo-chamber woke Colonel Anthony Webb two days early as programmed. Nobody really liked cryo-sleep but Webb hated it passionately. He always woke early on a mission so that he could clear his head and get his ducks in a row.   He rubbed his temple in response to the throbbing headache that he always got in the cryo-chamber and slowly sat up. As he came back to life he dropped his feet over the edge and touched the cold floor of the deck. The shock of the cold made him jump.
