Nasty White Sneakers

So apart from spending money I am addicted to goldfish crackers.

Tonight we are going to Caynes. We hope to leave with a toaster oven, mircowave, slowcooker, pasta pot with insert and who knows what else. Betting on whether we will spend more then $500 is now open.

Also ... Is Billy O'Reilly on drugs?

Phone $32.94
Internet $44.95
Car Insur. $179.66
Apt. Insur $25.74

Next up Hudson Movers.

Went to Ikea tonight.




We did manage to buy a sofa and test boxes for our dvd/cd collection that now lives in paper sleeves.

Creepy! A guy somehow was able to get Mum's password and forge a card and use it. He used the forgery at home depot-- two toilets $1946.00. Bastard. There goes my theory that that is a rare thing you don't need to be so paranoid about that sort of thing. *sigh* People suck. Home depot was able to see the guy in security footage so their insurance will give her the money back but still.... how the hell did they get that?

The person selling the complete 4 seasons of Farscape on dvds for $450, is really pissing me off. Cannot answer simple questions without being a jackass. I mean do they want the $450 or not? Me, I want to make sure I am getting what I want for such a HUGE amount of money.

I joined up with iTunes ( and we all know how much I hate going into windows) so I could buy them that way only to discover iTunes CANADA doesn't carry farscape although the US one does. Jerks.

I am really close to downloading them and saving myself the grief as well as the money.

Also, I want to rewatch the Chris Martin interview on The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos but I can't even find a transcript of the darn thing.

Move #1 went off with minimal pain. Can't find anything. Scratched my monitor. Finally got Damien working tonight. It was a lose connection with his power button. Move #2 happening somewhere around the first week of august. Many many things need to be thrown away before that because our crap will not fit into a 2 bedroom apartment.

Need to catch up my P365 pictures maybe tomorrow.

Moving stinks.

I will no doubt loose net connection tomorrow. I may get it back quickly....but who know with my ISP.

I'm back at work Wednesday in any case.

Happy Canada Day!

Went to a new Mediterranean restaurant. Ali Baba's. Not nearly as good as my usual noname place. They did have great hot sauce but their garlic sauce was crappy. There must be a skill involved with making shawarma and this place just doesn't have it although they are very nice, and really, way more convenient.

Speaking of food there is none at home this week. Too much packing etc to worry about it... I suppose next week will be as bad.

Reading a Mulder/Scully and a John/Rodney fic, bit of one bit of another then switch back. I shouldn't really be wasting anytime on fic I should be packing but I needed a break.

The pics of Hewlett's wedding are awesome. My favourite is the one with The Kid. What a great capture of a family moment to look back on in years to come. See the pics... here

Pack. Pack. Pack. Oooh found some chocolate... YUM. Pack. Pack. Pack.

Not sure how we did in the interview. I cannot *sell yourself* and that was the last question. You should let me into the co-op because ...."I'm nice and will pay my rent". Laaaaaaame! I stinko at interviews. I hope they will think of the rest of the hour and a half and not focus on that last question. I will need some Jack/Daniel fic to recover before bedtime.

Wow moving stinks. Seems like every time is worse then the time before and we don't even move that often.

We have an interview for the co-op place tomorrow. It's a single floor 2 bedroom ( the 2 bedroom 2 floor deals have bigger bedrooms) *fingers crossed*

How have I not been watching Numb3rs?

Going to look at an apartment tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Still not finished packing.

Today I killed a HUGE spider. I was so brave. Saved the peppers. Had Lunch with someone whose birthday I totally forgot. *still guilty*. Discussed XMen canon. Heroes spoilers and the upcoming Mummy 3.Played Shisen-sho mahjongg. Continued my ongoing task of reading all of chelle's SGA fic. while also reading The R Word.

Last night I watched Double Dare feeding my current girl crush of Zoe Bell.

Tonight I think I'll go to the storage locker and rescue Kill Bill from exile.

hmmm Long weekend... no C tuesday morning...

Not buying it.

I am evil bad. I serously worry about the ability of doctors to actually fix anything long term.

Also booo double shift day. Boss is against paying overtime but we have no other option so even though he says nope you can't work doubles I'll get someone to work that shift... he never does.

I seem to recall FudgeeOs tasting better when I was younger.

It is way more fun shooting your pics with someone.

Re Planet Terror - Where did the zombies come from any way? Yes, still squeeing over new RR.

I was missing icons... vagley remembers data_warrior warning about this.

Have a RR to use again. As a side note ...he is doing Machete. Wow. *fangirls *

Still haven't found an apartment. Getting worried. SSS and I are trying to get into a co-op but they have to call you in to interview. Why aren't they calling. *bites nails*

Romancing Alaska is awesome fun. Read it. Do I need to say it's John/Rodney? Also, it's AU which is my favourite type of SG fic.

It does make me wonder where the SGA AU Northern Exposure remakes are? Seems to me the most awesome of sets to find our shows characters. Sure it would be a really long and complex fic to add everyone properly but what fun to read. Oh yeah wishes I could write for the millionth time.

Finally bought and watched Grindhouse. I saw it in the theatre of course but I kept waiting for the double DVD set because it's what I wanted ... I just got tired of waiting. I actually forgot how gruesome it is. Ick. I am madly fangirling Robert Rodriguez again however, he talks about the Texas BBQ cooking school he is putting in the extended DVD additions of Grindhouse. Where is it the double dvd set?

Also, Zoe Bell is still my girl crush. I totally just watch the second half of Death Proof.

I keep going for a CD or DVD and then remembering I packed everything and put it into storage. Grrrr.

Whheeee! Two whole days off.

Spending it with Jack and Daniel... well packing too....maybe some laundry.

..on the lawn Monday. Today half the clan found a home. SSS and I have to go for an interview. Who knew you had to be interviewed for an apartment? Not me that's for sure. Very freaked out by this.

Bought a $59 tomato spoon over the weekend... I don't even like tomatoes. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow.

Apparently antique stores are also off the list of safe places to go when I am trying to save money.

Most ignorant comment I have heard maybe ever.
"They can dwell on their genocide all that they want, feel the pain all that they want."
So. Much. Stupid.

Booking our flight for GateCon Saturday $960 including taxes and fees.

C was unable to attend work today either. Too sunny?

We got an extension! We now have another month to find a place.

Also C had surprise doctors appointment. Whatever.

1) Some Men actually think what a women is wearing can indicated she is asking for it. No.Just really, no.
2) I actually saw a man say millions of years of evolution has made them into a creatures that can only think with his dick, and he means it. I don't remember where I saw it but, Wow way to be a human being..
3) Anyone can be thoughtless, regardless of gender.
4) The bigger something gets the more hurtful it becomes.

In non-boob related news.

Still no house in the wings for us.
If you put an ad in the paper advertising your house for rent, call people back when they leave a message.
Apartments are small.
If you see a two bedroom for $950 ...run.
Not being able to take the train/bus is a real hindrance.
All we did all weekend was stress over this.
I am not rested and ready to begin a new week.
