Aww Chris Rock, I love you and I think it's time for you to join the ranks of my pretend celebrity boyfriends. Say hi to Chris boys. "Hi Chris."

Grab the book closest to you.
Open to page 123, go down to the fifth sentence.
Post the text of next 3 sentences, the name of the book, and the author on your blog.

"But it got worse. My mother started rifling her closets, pulling the clothes off the hangers, folding them and ramming them into a large brown Crippled Civilians donation bag she had brought, making remarks about them as she did so. 'Look at that, will you,' she said of Aunt Lou's best gold-sequined evening dress, 'Cheap.'

Christmas presents status

Fri, 08 Dec 2006 00:38:13 GMT

So after decorating our apartment and Christmas shopping Emily and I are definately in the Christmas spirit and I have to admit it feels nice. This does not, however, mean that I will be listening to any Christmas music anytime soon. Not till I'm on the plane ride home and alone with my iPod on the 21st, at the very earliest. Though I did listen to Santa Baby today...but that's different! Anyway, here is an update on my Christmas shopping:

Mom - Done
- Birthday not done

Dad - Done

Dylan - Mom is getting it for me, so essentially my part is done

Steven - Not done

Vicky - Done
- Birthday not done

Alicia - Done and birthday done ( I realize it was months ago but I haven't gotten to give it to her yet )

Emily - Partially done

Granny and Grandpa - Done

Lynda and Rodney - Done

Jaime and James - Not done

David and Kim - Done

Tyler - Not done

Alishea - Done

Phew...getting there...

I gave this band a try once upon a time and wasn't all too impressed. But then I recently heard this song and it kicks friggin' ass. It is now my theme song. Thanks Rilo Kiley.

There's blood in my mouth 'cause I've been biting my tongue all week
I keep on talkin' trash but I never say anything
And the talkin' leads to touchin'
and the touchin' leads to sex
and then there is no mystery left

And It's bad news
Baby I'm bad news
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news

I know I'm alone if I'm with or without you
but just bein' around you offers me another form of relief
When the loneliness leads to bad dreams
and the bad dreams lead me to callin' you
and I call you and say "C'MERE!"

And it's bad news
Baby I'm bad news
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news

And it's bad news
Baby it's bad news
It's just bad news, bad news, bad news

'Cause you're just damage control
for a walking corpse like me - like you

'Cause we'll all be
Portions for foxes
Yeah we'll all be
Portions for foxes

There's a pretty young thing in front of you
and she's real pretty and she's real into you
and then she's sleepin' inside of you
and the talkin' leads to touchin'
then touchin' leads to sex
and then there is no mystery left

And it's bad news
I don't blame you
I do the same thing
I get lonely too

And you're bad news
My friends tell me to leave you
That you're bad news, bad news, bad news

That you're bad news
Baby you're bad news
and you're bad news
Baby you're bad news
and you're bad news
I don't care I like you
and you're bad news
I don't care I like you
I like you

Dear Vicky and Alicia

Fri, 25 Aug 2006 11:06:18 GMT

Dudes: Are we still planning to do the tattoo thing before Vicky and I leave? Cause I should really make an appointment for us, which means we should really discuss when we could make a trip into the city. Sometime next week maybe, we can even go in the evening after you guys are done work if necessary, but only if I make the appointment asap. So let me know!

P.S. I'll be home tomorrow. :)

-Kales

My tummy hurts...

Mon, 19 Jun 2006 12:53:56 GMT

So, I will be going home Wednesday night and staying till Sunday. I will be painting my old room, which should be interesting. Nonetheless I am happy to be going home again for a bit. Except it means less time with Erin before she leaves for T.O. :( but I have to go to the doctor at home early Thursday morning so there isn't much I can do about that. I assume and hope that Steven will also come home Friday night for the weekend. Anyway, see y'all soon!

-Kales

New Plan

Thu, 08 Jun 2006 17:53:32 GMT

Alright, new plan for the weekend. Steven and I are coming home late tomorrow night and he is staying home till sometime Sunday. I am staying till sometime Wednesday. I am still training for poll clerking on Sunday, should be about 1-2:30 and then poll clerking on Tuesday is an all day thing, plus the party for my Dad afterwards. So there is a fair amount of free time in there for hanging out, which I would like to take full advantage of! Yay!

-Kales

Schedule

Tue, 06 Jun 2006 20:49:39 GMT

So, here's the plan as of now:

I work at the NDP callbank in Dartmouth tomorrow 4:30-9, Friday 4:30-9 and Saturday 10-3. Sunday morning I come home ( time undecided ) and go to Poll Clerk training in the bay at 1pm. After that ( I have no idea how long it'll take ) I am free to do as I please till Tuesday when I am a Poll Clerk for the Mader's Cove poll ( which is actually in the bay anyway ) all day. I'm sure there will be some other election related stuff in there and I have to get a criminal record check at some point but I definately want to hang out with the 2 hottest girls in the bay area at some point ( you know who you are ).

Anyways that's the plan and I am probably coming back to the city Wed. morning but I don't know for sure yet.

"Goodbye My Lover"

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your hand.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

[x2]
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer and when i wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

[x2]
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

I'm trying to write a take-home exam, it's not working...I can't focus...I want to be done, I want to go home...I want to not miss everyone here...I need to go home...but most of all I want to be held again.

Ah, today...what a strange, strange, lonely day...

Sun, 02 Apr 2006 05:58:29 GMT

The day started off oddly. I got a new couch...well, new to me and long past its prime to my aunt and uncle. Then I watched a lot of Grey's Anatomy Season 1, while laying on my beautiful leather couch. Then Emily and Troye left on their magical mystery tour which I'm guessing was to a hotel. I stayed on the couch for awhile...too long...but I couldn't shake the feeling from when I woke up. My first thought when I awoke was that it must be raining, for some reason I can always sense it. I looked out the window and it was. My second thought was that the belt I have been eyeing at the Gap for weeks was on sale today. See this is my other skill, I can also sense the rain and sales at the Gap. I know it's weird, right? But true. So as I lay on the couch procrastinating my essays I decided I was right about the rain and therefore I had to see if I was right about the belt. I needed to get new ink for my printer anyway. So I ventured out of the house and into the rain. It seemed appropriate...obvious yes, but appropriate that it was raining and I was lonely. That and literally completely alone for the next 24 hours or so. Maybe I wanted to go to Rideau simply for human contact, who knows? Anyway to sum up the belt was on sale so I bought it, and spent some more time doing retail therapy. Always a bad idea. But I digress. I ended up renting Margaret's Museum, the movie of the play Glace Bay Miners' Museum which I just directed a scene from for my directing class...and was consequently depressed about. The movie made me cry. Next stop, Staples for printer ink. The thing about Staples is that it always makes me feel better. I realize this is just as weird as my Gap sale sensing powers but again, it's true. As soon as I walk into the place I get this feeling of a new school year washing over me. It doesn't even matter that it's not September, I feel it anytime I go in there. So feeling somewhat better I went home, via Macdonalds. Why not top the ridiculous day off with some greasy food I figured? I mean I had to make it just slightly more pathetic. As I walked through the parking lot I closed my eyes for a second and tried to imagine I was getting out of Vicky's green station wagon in the parking lot of the Bridgewater Macdonalds. Inevitably not wearing any pants and trying to get some on while Alicia is gropping me. Then stumbling, wet hair and laughing, from the parking lot into McD's while Vick reminds us to lock the doors, Steven grabs my hand and tries to kiss me which we can't do while walking cause we always fall over. Every time. But we try anyway. Meanwhile Daniel is just waiting for his perfect moment to ask me if I'm enjoying my meat. Then I opened my eyes. Still in the city...my clothes are not full of sand and I am alone again. I came home...back to my new couch.

Eve, The Apple Of My Eye by Bell X1

You left it, I sent it
I want it back
You left it, I sent it
I want it back

If I had you here, I'd clip your wings
Snap you up and leave you sprawling on my pin
This plan of mine is oh so very lame
Can't you see the grass is greener where it rains

You left, I died,
I went and you cried
You came, I think
But I never really know
I've served my time
I've watched you climb
The wrong incline
But what do I know

Accept it, Don't let it
Turn the screw
Accept it, And let it
Scream back at you

Now this applies both equally to you and I
The only thing we share
Is the same sky
These empty metaphors
They're all in vain
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains

In the garden Snake was a charmin'
And Eve said let's give it a try
Now lead us not into temptation
But no matter how hard I try
When in the garden and
Snake is a charmin'
And Eve says let's give it a try
Eve is the apple of my eye

And I lie behind you
And a cradle you in the palm of me
And I pat your hair down
I think will we sink or swim?
'Cause we could do either on a whim

1. Go to a music player
2. Go to library or all music
3. Select shuffle
4. Keep track of the first fifteen artists that come up
5. Find pictures of them, post them here so everyone can guess and see how shitty your taste in music is.

I guess this is what I do now...

Don't Confess by Tegan and Sara

Don’t think I’ll confess
Why would I confess that I
Don’t think I’ll deny
Why would I deny that I
Don’t be so hard on yourself
You won’t get better til you’re worse
Yeah you
Send a little smile my way
And don’t be so hard on yourself
You won’t get better til you’re worse
Yeah you
Send a little love my way
Every second I spend waiting
Drags me closer to this grave
I’m not alone
No, I’m just on my own
And I, it's a little cold outside
Ooh
Don’t think I’ll escape
(Don’t think I’ll escape)
Why would I escape you
Don’t think I’ll replace
(Don’t think I’ll replace)
How could I (how could I) replace you
And don’t be so hard on yourself
You won’t get better til you’re worse
Yeah you send a little smile my way
And don’t be so hard on yourself
You won’t get better til you’re worse
Yeah you send a little love my way
And every second I spend waiting
Drags me closer to this grave
I’m not alone
No, I’m just on my own
And I, it's a little cold outside
Ooh
And so don't be so hard on yourself
You won’t get better til you‘re worse
Send your love my way

Don't interpret my song lyrics bitches :)
