pssh,one.hand?Happy Turkey day to anyone who is Canadian and reading this... as for any Americans reading this, you probably have no idea what I'm talking about, but yes, in between building our igloos and cutting down trees, we do in fact celebrate thanksgiving. I spent the day at my grandpas house, where he cooked a big turkey dinner, with mashed potatos and gravy and corn and veggies.. mmmm; there were pickles and olives on the side, and colslaw and my moms special spinich egg thing. Emily and I awoke to a knocking on my door, as Ben was signaling to me that the phone was for me; it was my Mom calling to wake me up. It seems I had woke up at 10, as expected (I had set the alarm) but I guess I got up, turned it off and stumbled back to bed, all while I was still asleep (you know the 'turn the alarm off' state you get in the morning?) because I don't remember doing it, but there is just no other explaination. So anyway, my Mom told me I'd have about a half hour to get ready, which I thought was going to be a bit rushed but I said that I was still wanting to go, so I hung up the phone and went back into my room and woke up Emily. I informed her of the time we had and she quickly got up and proceeded to get ready, and I sat down and ate chips :P

even I would have sex with cloud
Yes... so due to my insomnia I missed my first day back to work... you should've seen me freak out... well, I'm sure it's probably better that you didn't see that. When I awoke I called Kandie at GTN and told her some I had a family emergency, and that I would still love to come in tomorrow, and she looked at her calander and nicely let me come in at 2pm tomorrow.. I was so scared I screwed myself.. I dunno what the hell happened... the alarm didn't even make me roll over.. I guess it's because I stayed up the entire night before due to my inability to sleep... It's really hard to explain to someone what its like to be manic, but an idea came mind when I was cooking spagetthi and meatsauce. You know the feeling and the way you were christmas eve when you were small (or perhaps last year?) and you couldn't sleep because you were so excited for the morning to come, you rolled and rolled around in bed, thinking and thinking about the nextx morning and how much you look forward to it and how you wish you coudl fall asleep so the morning would come faster, but you ended up just rolling around even more and you can't rest at all? Okay, well it's like that, except repace christmas eve with every night, and thinking about christmas presents to thinking about NOTHING. and that's pretty much how I am. It's like its christmas eve and nothings coming! hehe.. I guess that's the only way I can explain it right now, and if that didn' tmake sense, than.. fuck off.
I got a virus trying to download an illegal copy of WS_FTP to give to Michelle, and it completely destroyed my installation of Windows, so today was spent switching between Final Fantasy 7, and formatting my hard drive and reinstalling things. I'm just about set up now, having most things downloaded again, like Arachnophilia, Adobe Photoshop, WinRar, WinZip, BitTorrent and various windows updates, but I still hate the fact that I lost my whole computer... There should be a police force that finds creators of viruses, spyware and adware, and then publicly shoot them to death. Like in a town square, if we had one. Yes, I would pay for tickets to go see that.

I haven't updated in a long while because of a few reasons. I'm sick with a cold, and I hate it. My nose is all stuffy, and my throat was sore (but isn't much anymore) and I sneeze every five seconds and I get headaches and my nose runs and I can't sleep or relax and it's really starting to get to me. Secondly, I haven't really updated because I've been quite busy working on the new version of the website (webkore) and have been quite busy doing that. The main task that I've been doing is converting all three years of entries into the new format, which is.. repetitive and often boring to say the least, but I do it one month at a time, take a break and start up again. Hopefully this will be the last time I ever have to 'convert' archives (as I've had to do it in the past, like the last time I changed the layout), and I can just change the system that imports them, rather than the source itself (yes, yes, I'm sure that makes no sense to you)... anyway, things are coming together and I'm enjoying the work, even if it is repetitive and boring. I'm still aiming for a january 2005 release of the site, which seems pretty realistic *crosses fingers*

I really don't think I can write an entire entry (worth reading) about today?s events, considering nothing much happened. I woke when Emily woke for school (late mind you... around 9:10 or something...) and I couldn't really get back to sleep. My eyes were heavy in that way that you just want to smash your face into the pillow and just go back to sleep instantly, but I just couldn't lay still or rest or anything, so I turned on Final Fantasy 5, continued what I was doing the day before; building up on a mountain, and eventually making quite a bit of progress into the game. I'm nearing where I had stopped my previous run through the game, because I'm starting to recognize some areas that were difficult for me the first time through, and I'm wondering how I'm going to do this time. This run through I'm using a lot more of the jobs, experimenting more, trying different combinations and strategies and thinking ahead much more. I played that for quite awhile until the hunger inside of me took over and I just couldn't take it anymore, and I had to turn it off, go to the kitchen and make some Lipton Noodle Soup (and I kindly saved some for Emily when she got home from school!.. awww! I'm so freakin' sweat!) And I watched Ben Steins Money and then threw myself down to sleep, finally winning over my tiredness with fresh, neck cramping, and headache inducing sleep. I woke up a couple times... watched some SCTV and various other things but eventually fell back asleep until around 3pm, when Emily returned from school and had her chicken noodle soup!
