Moving soon

Well the parents will be moving very soon, I have to clear away some room in the basement so they can bring in some things. I think I will have to put all the big huge tubs that are full of stuff that I cant seem to get rid of on the bottom just in case of a flood it will have a lot better chance of surviving than a cardboard box. I really don't want to go down there now and do it, but if I don't it'll never get done on time.

Crash

There's a movie I must recommend you all go see, either you go to the movies or you wait till it comes out to rent. It's a movie about different people and their view on others. It's very interesting and really gets you thinking after the show is over. A great and exciting movie. If you want my opinion anyways lol Directed by Paul Haggis and the cast is: Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Matt Dillon, Jennifer Esposito, William Fichtner, Brendan Fraser, Terrence Dashon Howard, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Thandie Newton, Ryan Phillippe, Larenz Tate, Nona Gaye, Michael Peņa.
Such a great cast!

Downtown

So, after that post Jenn and I went downtown. We had talked about going there a few days ago but never really fully decided till that evening. We wanted to go down to Benders like old times. When we first went out by ourselves and danced the night away till the "ugly lights" came on. When we got there I noticed that it was very dark and no people were around it. It was CLOSED DOWN! I had no idea that happened! I wonder why. Anyways we went right next door to Peddlers and had a good time. They ALWAYS play the same songs tho, with a new one thrown in once in a while to get the people dancing.
That's the best thing about George street. If you don't like one bar go next door and there is one you might like, if not, go across the street and go to a bar over there! Another thing I've noticed, George street is a lot longer when your half in the bag then when you're sober.
We had some Sal's Pizza afterwards and I tell you! It was SO GOOD. I then ate a George dog and realized that it wasn't tasting the same as all the other times and the cheese tasted off......I made a mental note to never order from that vendor again. I felt sick after that. Maybe it wasn't cooked right. Eh, I guess I survived and that's all that matters lol
I haven't been keeping up on my comments on other blogs again, I read it over and then think "Eh, I'll post a comment later." I guess later never really comes because next thing you know it 3-4 entries later I'm reading and thinking "Oh, I didn't say anything last time, maybe this time I will.....Eh maybe later." See what I mean?? Shockin....That's the only word...Shockin... tsk tsk tsk ;^)

CRASH! OMG!

I was walking home today from work and I was walking down the hill that is just before Irving here on Torbay Rd and I was just minding my own business when all of a sudden I hear this extremely loud crash, I look over and see this black car with a huge dent in the front (like 2 feet deep into the car) and there is this brownish car with the crap beat out of it's rear rushing by and tried to swerve out of the way of the car in front of it that one and scratched the shit out of its left side and the right side of the car that was in front of it. (confused yet?) anyways, I had just witnessed a 3 car crash.
I hate it hen people speed. Go the limit b'y! That's why they put it there, so you can drive safely. Fuckin idiot tat driver is! He could have killed someone.
If there is anyone that reads this blog that drives crazy like that then Fucken grow up before you kill someone!

Rain Rain go away

Well, I guess it could be worse, like yesterday, when we had SNOW! yuck! It really wasn't much, not enough to actually stick to the ground but still at this time of the year any snow is too much.
I went to Wal-Mart today to get some things and when I came home, which was just about 20 minutes ago, I got some fright.
I came in and laid all my things down in the living room and made my way to the kitchen. But something was dirrerent, one of Lesleys' piller candles that was normally laid on the mantle of the fireplace in the living room was laying there...in front of the dishwasher. How it got there I don't really know. I looked around the rest of the house in a panic. I of course thought the worst and that we had been broken into. I looked at the mantle and see that another candle was knocked down and som books were now on their side and a picture was on the floor. All the windows were closed and all the doors were locked. I even searched the basement. No one.
This time I was armed with the swiffer handle. I don't think it would help me any better than last time when we were all in bed and thought someone broke in and I grabbed the first thing I saw.....an adverage sized bottle of Frebrez. LOL I guess I would have broken the handle of that swiffer before any damage was done ha! can you picture that?
Anyways I think that maybe the vibrations from a passing plane may have knocked over the books, which would have knocked over the candles and I'm guessing one just rolled by the dishwasher.

Back

I came back home yesterday, but had way too much to do when I came in I really couldn't go to the computer till later and then I just wanted to go to bed so I never really had the time to post something.
On Friday we had supper and we were all laughing and telling stories like old times.
On Saturday morning we all went down to the basement to look through boxes and boxes of old stuff. We found all our old baseball and hockey cards. We have hundreds of dollars worth of them that we never really use. I found a whole bunch of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that are in great shape, I think I may try and sell them on EBay I have this big Leo doll that is over a foot in height complete with sword and all, I loved the turtles so much back in the day, I even got some of their trading cards.
I brought 2 boxes of things home with me and there are some more on their way when mom and dad actually moves out of the house.
On Sunday we gave mom her mothers day gifts. Roses and a gift certificate for jungle jims (so she can go to one of her many favourite places to eat without worrying about the cost) she also got The Waltons 2nd season DVD box set which she really loved.
I went for several walks and took many pictures, I'll be posting some when I get the chance.

I'm going home

I didn't really want to write this at work, but I had no time to do so at home. I'm going home right after work today - Home home - back to the house I grew up in. For the last time......
It will be hard I can tell. Having the last few meals there should be fun and sad. Mom had planned to have a BBQ but Dad had already given it away. So we're taking in the one that we use in here, it is small and only so much can be puton it at a time, but it will do.
This will be the last time I will sleep in my old bedroom, it will be the last time I will be able to look at the ceiling and try to see shapes in the stoco(sp?) that dad had put up when he build the house.
I'd say I would go and use the really old fashioned bathtub for the last time too but I'm too afraid I'd go through the floor, with all that water, me and the cast iron tub I'm sure I'll be sent crashing to the basement. Oh what a sight that would be! lol
I'll take a little walk in the hills, and visit all the places where I would play with friends and by myself. I spent many hours up there by myself where I would just think, play games and pretend to talk to my invisible grandmother (ha, laugh all you want)
I know I can always go back to those hills whenever I want, but my walk back will never be in the direction of my house, it just won't be the same.
The field in the hills behind my house where we'd play baseball has since been taken over by some fishermen. He now has all his extra equipment stored there. What a bastard.
There is one thing I won't miss, and that's the people. 95% of them are so mean and twisted, and most of them don't seem to be dealing with a full deck if you know what I mean.

I love the hills and cliffs, I love the quiet, the smell of the ocean and the sound of the seagulls. I'll miss the icebergs, beaches, and beautiful sunsets. I'll also miss the simplicity of life that is there. I think I may go there when I'm old, and build a nice small house, it will be neat and tidy, I'd love to start a little garden where I grow some veggies and plants. I'll have a compost pile where I'm sure I'll add to it every day. I'll sit on my deck and drink tea and listen to the radio and complain that the music the radio plays is crap nothing compared to the songs I would listen to years ago back in the 00's and the 10's
I'd go on hikes and have a little work shed where I would make things or fix things (maybe even break things lol) I'd be looking forward to visits from family from afar and especially from grandchildren that I'd absolutely spoil rotten, so I could get back at my kids (hehehe ;^) I'm evil )

Well I'm going to be taking pictures, so maybe I'll upload some. I may as well update on how the trip went.
I feel sad now.

Early morning

Jenn woke up around 6am today to get ready andcatch the DRL Coachline so she can go home for a few days. I got up at 6:45am so I could go down to MUN and see her off.
There was a lot of people there, but I have seen worse.
On our way there the cab rive told us about a fire on Barnes Road that happened last night. An older lady died in that fire, and the blaze jumped to the neighbours house and 2 were hurt (but alive) there. How scary is that!! (Thats the same road you lived on right Janice?)
I'm going to walk to work today, I might leave very soon. I got to stop into Health Quest and get some of those yellow bracelets, I have to pick up 3for people at work and I may have to pick some up for myself. they are like 2.50 each.

Feels like Monday

Today feels so much like a Monday it's scary, especially when I was at work. I screwed so many things up it's not funny. I really mixed up my schedule and took my 1/2 hour lunch on one of my 15 minute breaks. It's a good thing my supervisor is so nice. She is pretty much the only one there that puts up with me like that.
So nice out today I cant believe how humid it is.

Movie

I forgot to say in my last post that I had seen a movie. The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.
I have always looked at those books while at Coles but never did by them. I thought they would be a great buy but just in case they were not I didn't want to waste my money on it. I saw the preview for this movie while watching another movie then I saw the preview on TV. Those previews made me very interested in it and I thought about buying the books again until a friend from work lent them to me, I'm on the third one now.
Some reviews didn't have very many good things to say about it. Saying something about too many things to grasp at once and things like that. I say if you can watch Starwars you will have no problem what so ever following this movie, it's very funny and sometimes witty and very interesting.

Swing Swing Swing

All 4 of us when to the playground that is like a 2 minute walk from our house last night. We were gone for almost an hour. We were on the swings and on the see-saws....Ouch! They really hurt the butt! Also went on this colourful play house thing that had slides and monkey bars. It was fun, I felt like I was a big 10 year old. Oh the memories of being ten! lol Ok maybe there are not very many memories, since my brain seems to like to purge itself once every few years. Everything seems to merge into one after a while, some major things still sticks out, but most seem to be compacted and placed on a dusty shelf somewhere in my brain and it needs a good push or a bunch of people sitting around recalling old memories in order for my memories to come back to me. It's strange, but that's how I picture it, you know. Some guy (a little me maybe) up there in my head with a step ladder waiting for a command to get one of those boxes and they dust it off and dig for something.
We have new downstair neighbor's today. I thought we would get at least 1 full day with no one under us so I can blast the music and have a heavy step without worrying if it's bugging anyone. I feel like I should offer my help with moving in their stuff, they had a big ass U-Haul here full of stuff, and now it just arrived again, full! I'd like to know how much they think they can fill up that place.
The thing is, I hate being rejected, and if I go out there and say "Hey, you guys need a hand?" and if they would be like "Uh, no, we can handle it." I would be totally embarrassed and feel so rejected. I would feel like such a fool. So I'd rather stay here and type away on this computer and not get that feeling today, I really don't need to feel like that right now.
