110th - hit and miss

Today's pictures brought to you by random hanging out in my room and the letter Z: It's pronounced Zed, you hillbillies!

I woke on what I thought was Friday morning and decided to make myself breakfast. I made two eggs, which went fine. Then I decided I want some paratas [it's like a flat bread] to go with my eggs, so i made the first one, mildly burnt but it was alright. Then i made as the second one. Instead of reaching for some gee [cooking oil]], I reached for the Sunlight [dish washing liquid]. It set off the fire alarm and the house instantly smelt like burnt lemons. I couldn't help it, had to at least try it. Ew.

Then I had to rush to work because I was running later due to some issues with my car. Stupid car. I'm working nights now, by the way. That also explains why I'm home right now. So I rush to work. Have this killer headache. Don't have the greatest outlook on the rest of the night.

By the way, when you work nights, you never really get proper sleep [and I barely do anyway] so you're always tired. The only thing keeping me going is that it's the last work day of the week and after this, I go home and do the whole relaxing thing.

I find out around 10ish that it is in fact not Friday, but friggin THURSDAY!! So now i'm in a horrible foul mood. The night didn't improve after that.

Oh, so this is kind of big. A few days ago, I lost everything I had on my computers EVER. All my personal junk is gone along with school stuff and art projects and photos and so on. All backups are gone too and it's all non-recoverable. You think I'd be freaking about this a little more, but I'm really not. You would think me of all people would have the biggest hissy about something like this.

HAPPY BIRTHDAYs to Andy who's now older as well as blonder, Hadia who's also gotten older and rounder, and lastly Saddaf who's turned twenty-three.

photos [below] - more loungin.This past weekend I got a bunch of the you're-too-hard-to-shop-for-so-say-what-you-want-or-get-nothing phone calls/emails. So here I am posting a few things off the top of my head. I think this kinda ruins some of the fun. By the way, I found out about one of my birthday gifts and it is friggin awesome! You have no idea how excited I am about it. I should mention, none of you actually have to get me anything. By the by, celebrations will possibly be in April, if any.

The list: Futureshop Giftcards [for purchase of new camera] - ROM membership - books/comics [Preacher, Ultimate Spiderman, Flight, Gods behaving Badly, Spiderwick, etc] - Mario Galaxy - weird dictionaries - a minilop [must respond to anthony hopkins] - a 65-year-old turtle - a onezie or jammers if you will - r4 chip for my DS - that pig thing that you smash on the ground and it turns intop good and then reforms itself like the terminator - clothes. That's pretty much everything I can think of. If you're buying me a gift, you should know me well enough to come up with other stuff, so this is a good reference for people with no idea.

I should point out, this is now Monday morning that I'm continuing this. So, weekend. Horrible storm just in time to ruin the weekend. Summary. Had a very mind-bogglingly offensive dinner [I'm going to blog about it], Andy came back for a visit from the Australias, Wings. I think that about covers it.

Okay.

Peace.

109th - Mini Assignment

photo [below] - I don't know why, but this just looks a little off doesn't it? I offer the following questions: 1. Why is everyone looking in the same general direction but different elevations. 2. Why does that brown dude in the middle look so proud? 3. Why is the only white guy covered up? 4. Why does he look like a cannibal? 5. Why is 'Flexibi..' cut? 6. Does this main page inspire you to buy FoxConn products? [The make motherboards and stuff]I’ve discovered that Baklava and Cockroaches smells pretty much the same. The building I am currently doing a project in has a Cockroach infestation. It’s kind of gross. It has a sickly sweet smell in the high concentration areas. I can only assume that it’s the cockroaches. The smell is very similar to baklava. You decide if there is a possibility of shared ingredients, perhaps.

A small tiny Assignment for everyone: Over the next few days, think about this. Best/Worst/Useless/Funniest/Saddest/Inappropriate/Gross/Etc moment [Movies only. No TV, Radio, etc] moment in Cinema and send me a small email at sixth.lie@sympatico.ca. I wanna compile a list for my next blog.

Example: Inappropriately Funny Moment in Cinema – In the beginning of Meet Joe Black where Brad Pitt’s human character almost gets hit by a car and then does get hit by car and then in midair by a van. I was on the floor laughing in complete hysterics, it hurt.

In other news, I watched my first complete football game last night. Kind of sucks that New England lost. I wanted to see them whoop New York. I enjoy is when the underdog wins, but there’s a satisfaction to watching the favorite stomp out lesser teams.

108th - Photos and 2 videos from PA

Greetings folks!

So, I'm late on blogging. I never really did get around to that Sunday blog. Oh well. Here's the weekend blog. Mainly just pictures. Trip was awesome! We did some dinner, some visiting Adidi [no photographs. you're welcome Adidi], some shopping, and tons of driving. Enjoy.

First Photo from Abbas's Birthday Present. He wasn't aware he had one yet and I wanted to play around with it before it's handed over and I'm not allowed to play with it anymore.

Right before we're leaving. Nad does not want to be awake or photographed right now. First photo of the trip and we're on our way! It's roughly 630am now.

It looks like someone ugly exposed themselves to me while I was in Walgreens. Not the case. I was just cold. Very cold. I look very unhappy.

This is the cleanest our car looked during this trip. I really wish I had taken a picture at the end of the trip. It was filthy. It wasn't even blue anymore.

Mome drove all the way there. This is what was happening during most of that drive. Driving, sleeping, sleeping, half-asleep, looking-mildly-homicidal. In my defense, I say cross legged the entire eight and a half hour drive because Preggy had leaned and pushed her seat back.

Mom trying to kill all of us.

We arrived and the lounging began instantly in varying degrees. Guess what Nomi is doing.

I think they missed each other.

I lost my keys in this grocery store while visiting Adidi but more importantly, why is deodorant 14.35 a pound?

Abbas opens his birthday present. Goes from looking evil, to surprised/offended, to very happy about the case.

A Titanic moment Nome didn't want any part in. I think she's talking about herself right now.

The Nomin Monster.

For those who inquired - Yes, I got plenty of sleep. Even while we had visitors. That's Mavish by the way. More on her later.

Abbas' butt.

White t-shirt. You asked for it. I delivered. This is like first thing in the morning.

Mome taught me how to tie my tie, yet again. He was an ass about it this time though. He showed me, like he normally does and then opened it so I had to do it myself.

The Tie bit. Now on Video.

Mome took this picture. He likes it. Me not so much.

This is Mome losing his shit at a Telemarketer only to realize that he's yelling at the door buzzer phone thing. Telemarketers beware.

Hahaha. Bustard Guy!

I know it's cheesy but it has to be done once in a while.

The Liberty Bell Centre. Yet again.

The look like they're concentrating awfully hard.

I find this more creepy than inspiring. It's one of the displays along the path to the bell.

Me and Abbas in front of previously mentioned creepy display.

Sorry. Forgot to rotate the image. Not going back now. That is a liberty-bell Jello/candy mold I am pointing at.

I think Mome is tryign to tell us something.

Something you don't see everyday. The underside of the Liberty Bell. That's the spider thing they mention to get the crack to not spread and I'm guessing the wires and blue tape are part fo the security system. Who'd want to steal the Liberty Bell? It's broken.

Posing at the Liberty Bell. POSERS!

Outside the thing's which's name I forgot. They signed some document here. It was important at some point.

WHY??

We're going to Hell. I know we are. Mome hasn't yet expected this. Abbas is going down by association.

Hahaha!

BWAHAHAH!! I guess you had to be there.

I know she looks surprised. She's not. And Mavish. I said there would be more on her later.

The next Splenda spokesperson.

I like that sweater. I have good taste. That's the only reason this photo is here. So I can say that.

Nadia is a narcissistic. She puts my narcissism to shame. She "suggested" I post this photo.

Preggy!

Nome looking very serious about his girly drink.

If I came in a can - Let's try that again. If I was to be packaged in a can, that's it would say on it. Not the 8.3 fluid ounces bit. Jerks...

Mome's straw Photo.
My straw photo.

Sixth, the Red Bull Connoisseur.

Look at how happy Abbas is. Mavish looked pissed though.

Brains!! Mome made a good point. Digital Cameras gave way to people photographing stuff they would never waste real film on. Where would the internet be without it.
Abbas is suspicious of people who bring him free cake. Sadly, that's not free cake. That's the dessert I ordered that they stuck a candle in!

This is probably the best photo of the whole trip. Next to me crying, of course.

You just need to see this. You better see this. It took like ninety minuted to upload this pile of crap video!

It's Had and Nome. Preggy is starting to look very Pregnant. Oh yeah, and Mome's 'that-guy' pose.

Had and Mavish. I'm sure I'm butchering the spelling of her name. Anyway, Mavish drives a green Camry. She used to work with Had at PNC. Had no longer works there.

This place is friggin AWESOME! I will definitely visit Adidi again unless I find one of these in Toronto which I've been told there is one. TO BREAKFAST!!

To Bed, Bath & Beyond!!

At Bed, Bath & Beyond! Mome very happy about his Shower Radio. He doesn't get enough Radio in his life.

Had reading at the bookstore.

Abbas confused at the bookstore.

The drive home begins. Look at me, driving all proper. Believe me, this didn't last very long.

Nad instantly assumed the position.

A few hours later...

TUNNEL!!

SAME TUNNEL! Incidentally, last photo.

In conclusion. One. Always be wary of people who use the phrase, "in conclusion". They're about to start all over again. Two. The Charger is a medium amount of fun. The exterior does not make up for the crappy interior. It doesn't do snow very well. I miss the Mazda6.

And there you have it. The end of the Trip. Well, the trip ended with me going to pick up my car from the Mechanic only to find my newly replaced tired stabbed and slashed twenty or thirty times.
