Heroes
Five Years Gone
After last week’s .07% I was thinking how cool it would be to just zip five years into the future and continue the story from there. Assume the bomb happened, it was inevitable, so just move on. From the previews of tonight’s episode, I thought it might be pretty cool. I’m a fan [...]

Laura and her sister have been bugging their mother to get a Basset Hound for a while now and this week, their mother finally gave in…

So today I met the new puppy, Lucy. She’s young and hyper and bitey.

…and she likes sleeping on her back (me too!).

Today, Lucy met the neighbor’s big Husky…

…and they instantly [...]

I started into American Gods last night when I got home from Dennis’ and just kept reading. I had no idea what it was about, just that it was by Neil Gaiman and so I should read it. I like approaching books with no idea what they’re about.
On our way to Dennis’ last night, Jamie [...]

Duke Nukem Forever was announced 10 years ago today. Here’s hoping 3D Realms finishes it before I get arthritis or something.

Jamie picked me up after work and we went over to Dennis’ to play on his 360. We started out with Fusion Frenzy 2, then moved on to Gears of War and ended with [...]

New game to occupy ourselves at work: Draw shit in MS Paint and email it to each other.
I guess from there, the game becomes “guess what the drawing is” but they were all really obvious. It was just cool to a. draw stuff poorly in Paint and b. see what other people came up with.
I [...]

After finally getting my hair cut this afternoon, I stopped in at the LCBO and then Subway for lunch. I picked up a 12″ sub but was full after half of it. Not having eaten anything else all day, I felt silly being full so soon and forced myself to eat the second 6″. Very [...]

Kind of a shitty day for many of us but even worse for Sarah who had some guy threaten her on the phone. There were plans to head out after work for a drink but after everyone else canceled, it was just Jamie and I. It was still good though - we had a drink [...]

I joined twitter the other day and recently added it to my Live page, replacing my desktop cam.
Sarah told me at work today that she can picture me as an alcoholic, but not as one who would smoke.

Yep, that’s me - drowning at the bottom of a bottle
who are you to wave [...]

Working on a Sunday is generally no fun, however today wasn’t too bad. It was just Jamie and I on our own and I managed all this:

played Go Fish*
talked a lot*
played Puzzle Quest on my DS
shopped around on the Futureshop website
looked at new tires and rims for Jamie’s Jeep*
took ~40 calls*
read my book
realized we don’t [...]

Laura and I watched ‘Alpha Dog’ tonight. The story was interesting but the white drug dealers who thought they were hot shit and black really bugged me. Twice as much when they were drinking or on drugs. Really, I would have been satisfied if I could have just read the plot online somewhere.
Following the movie, [...]
