prepare yourself

so i voted. first time ever. did my vote matter? who knows. but let me repeat that i voted.

the reason i bring that up is that i was told that i wasn't allowed to complain unless i voted. now that i have, prepare yourself for a constant barrage of limitless, unrelenting, uncaring, don't give two fucks what you think about it, series of complaints. hey, it wasn't my rule... i'm just taking advantage of it.

so... where to start.

i'll tell you where. the elevator. not any particular elevator. elevators in general. what pisses me off is when i'm getting out of the elevator, people who want to get in don't wait until i'm out. what's your damn hurry? don't touch me when you're scampering into the elevator - i don't want your skanky germs and i don't enjoy your stupidity or inability to act appropriately in a society.

next - smokers who almost run into me as they are coming back in from outside and don't bother looking where they're going as they turn a corner in my building. quite frankly, i'd prefer it if you'd just stay outside. you bring your filthy habit and stench inside with you. your wrinkly and stained disgusting skin makes me want to run to the nearest public washroom to throw up.

it's late. i've been working for 13 hours. as much as i'd like to continue complaining, i'm tired and i'm going to bed. but don't worry. there's more to come.

more exciting than peanut butter and crackers

so it's looking more and more like i'm going to have to go to edmonton in a couple of weeks. what the fuck is there to do in edmonton? thank god i have to work while i'm there.

on another note, i asked someone to marry me today. that's when i realized my zipper was down. talk about embarassing... the one day i decide to go commando! so anyway, don't expect any wedding invitations any time soon.

edmonton! i sure hope i don't die of boredom.

words

pretzels, chocolate milk, greek pita, mozarella cheese, frozen yogurt, juice, bread, onion, frozen thin crust pizza, seedless green grapes, more juice, pepperoni, chocolate chips, spring water.

these are things i bought at the grocery store tonight.

wood varnish, apple sauce, an instructional book on cascading style sheets, a trip to toronto, a slow moving dodge caravan, the new brunswick anti-tobacco coalition, swiss chocolate, underwear, a chocolate shower.

these are things i didn't buy at the grocery store tonight. but i did think about them at some point today.

what? it's been a while since i've posted. give me a break... like you could do better... jerks!

maybe some drugs would help

i haven't been sleeping lately. i don't know why. i'm exhausted and i go to bed early, but i can't fall asleep. so while i'm lying there, i start to think of things.

like, sometimes i think i'm pretty lucky not to be a siamese twin. what if the other head controlled the arms? then, if he was a jerk, he might not let me have any ice cream. or, what if he was the attractive one and always got the girls... i'd just have to tag along everywhere and while he was gettin' some, i'd always be the creepy on-looker. but then i think maybe it wouldn't be so bad. especially if he controlled one arm and i controlled the other. then i'd be able to eat my own ice cream. plus, as a kid, we could have gotten our homework done a lot sooner with two of us working on it. or do you think that we'd both have to do separate homework? what would happen if one of us failed a grade? would we get paid for two salaries if we got a job?

these are questions i just don't have answers to. i wonder if they're what's keeping me up.
