spent $160 on a new power source, a new wireless n router, and a new 500G external hard drive.
not bad considering i'll get to keep my current hard drive's information all in there without doing tons of backing up.
well, i'll soon due for a back up now there's a new drive.
i managed to watch all True Blood episodes up to the most current one in 7 days.
that's 12 in the first series, 12 in the second series, and 3 in the third series.
so proud of myself.
indeed True Blood is much more interesting than the Twilight saga.
maybe i'll go find the books on an odd day. must be expensive though... 4 books in Twilight, and The Southern Vampire Mysteries (True Blood) has 10 so far.
wow, that's a lot of reading... could be better just borrow a copy from the library.
strange how both main vampire actors are both British. lots of parallels in the plot lines. coincidence?
couple weeks ago i told the music school director that i'll be quitting at the end of the contract, which is September 1. luckily for me that's a Wednesday, so the last day is August 30.
he tried so hard to give me reasons to stay. but i just can't!
it's too freaking far and out of all the students only 2 would really practise.
oh well. won't be my problem. i have my own privates to worry about.
they don't pay me enough to make me care.
i do plan to spend more time expanding the wedding music business, and keep auditioning for a contract job.

an electrically cursed day
last night my desktop tower suddenly switched off while i was watching True Blood season 2 episode 6.
then i can't turn it back on.
i really can't smell any electrical burn. is my sense of smell really that bad???
or maybe it's just my power source?
i hope it's the power, much easier and cheaper to fix.
shit... haven't backed up for a while....
time to go see the computer doctor.
sigh...
my dad's CRT monitor died too yesterday morning.
and then we saw a lot of CRT monitor outside of homes at the curb.
we're suspecting there's a town-wide electrical curse happening on Canada Day, and it big finished with mine dead.
or it could be a True Blood infection.
muwahahahaha
ok, off to the doc.

things not to do
note to self:
do not eat left over chinese battered fried fish.
and if there's no choice, eat it with a cold can of coke or highly steeped black tea.
what happened?
i think i ate a whole bowl of them for lunch and got really sick.
the quickest solution i could think of was to make some very steeped tetley. no sugar, no milk. just black.
and thanks to my smartness, it worked. well, less regurgitating.
totally ruined my day.
and when i told this to my dad, he's like, "oh yeah, i've had one of those before. same thing with battered fish leftovers."
gee, thanks for telling me now, dad. that was real helpful.

hate a girly girl's night out
u know the feeling that a party should've ended 2 hours ago, yet u can't leave because of ur obligations?
and add a splitting headache in the mix as well.
oh, plus hunger and thirst and lack of sleep.
yup. had one of those.
i think i'll do better as a guy next life.
just go out and drink and pass out. so much easier.
now i finally finish getting stuff ready for tomorrow's gig day.
time to take a 4 hour sleep.
zzzzzzzzz...

must dos
got a few of my gazillion tasks done.
now the killer part - arrangements.
oh, how i dread through the process.
let me get a screwdriver mix going.
i figured out why i'm so bloated now.
it's the snacks... the never ending snacks...
i love them!!!
maybe i'll just give up thoughts of going in shape and just go with a supersized me.

more complains
i'm getting fatter and fatter!!!
gotta resume exercising... been slacking and putting off routines.
all these weddings are making me tired.
maybe it's time for me to get a vacation or something.
i miss the mountains and trees of the west, but i also miss the frenchies of the east.
but most of all... i miss not riding a proper bike!
maybe i should just go ahead and buy a brand new bike.

point of view
guess i'm the working type.
that's it. don't even need to collaborate on that.
i find it hard to share my mind now. the open period has passed.
might as well just keep it brief.
no, i don't think i've changed at all.
always been this obnoxious lying introvert since day 1.
i just have really good acting skills and many masks to go with it.
just watched Legion.
it's a crap hole, but the graphics look alright.
can't expect too much from a shooting fancy film.
totally american.
