There otta be a 12 step program.

I feel trapped by FaceBook. I don't do anything else but check my status and the status of others, look at their photos and videos and play farming games.

I intermittently download and watch tv programs but it seems that I don't even bother to check email anymore or blog for that matter.

I know people that don't use Facebook, have never had Facebook....I know it can be done. But who wants to be the one person who is out of the loop?

I need help.

What is up with that?

I download a lot of TV, since I don't pay for cable.

Right now there are plenty of new shows and pilot episodes of new series' out there. Yet I have resisted downloading Eastwick.



I just realized why, its because I assumed it was Canadian. Maybe because Paul Gross is doing the Nickleson role, I guess I assume it is going to be low budget or just plain crap.

Does that make me a snob?

I can't seem to win today.

Was having problems getting a new ringtone for my phone. So I broke down and used the old 'contact us' feature at Telus.



Tell me, am I missing something?

And the award for biggest A-Hole on the planet goes to...


What the hell is wrong with Kanye West? Who brought this asshole up? If I was his mother I would have dragged his ass off the stage by his ear. This sweet, country singing teenager wins her first VMA award and this douchebag, grabs the mike from her and basically says that she robbed Beyonce. That it was Beyonce who truly had the best video and should have won. And Beyonce puts on her best WTF smile. She was mortified.

It wasn't easy finding the video for this it was even taken off the Associated Press website. I am not sure who they are trying to protect, Taylor from the embarrassment, the producers of the VMA's or the asshole, Kanye. I have to see this so I am downloading it from Mininova.

But this is what I could find.



People were shocked! I mean really, this kid is completely classless. It was all over Twitter, as it was happening. Katy Perry Twittered: FUCK U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED 0N A KITTEN.

And the Classy Chick award goes to?... Beyonce. When she was accepting her award she brought Taylor back on stage so she could finish her acceptance speech. Very classy.

(couldn't find a video for that either)

I heard that Kanye was supposed to perform after this but was cut last minute. I can't confirm that until I see the program but I can't imagine him getting anything but boo'ed after that load of crap he pulled.

Update:

Okay, so I watched the whole thing. Yup, KW, still an A-hole. But what was most disturbing was Lady Gaga.

Chick is not wound right.

Should I be worried?

So the doomsday crap begins. Apparently on December 21, 2012 its lights out for the earth.

Okay, so you believe it. Then what? Can you stop it? Haven't seen one person come up with at suggestion. Can you survive it? Not that anyone is saying. So here is the question.

Who the fuck cares?

If you can't stop it or survive it, why bother worrying about it? You will only work yourself up into a frenzy for no good reason. If it is true, you wasted the two good years you had left and if its not true you have wasted two years fretting over it. Quite possibly working yourself into a state that causes small children to give you a wide birth. Might as well get yourself a couple dozen cats to keep you company in your old age cuz everyone else already thinks your nutts.

Everyone is talking about the Mayans...if they were so fucking brilliant, where are they now? Oh....but their calendar ends on December 21, 2012. Dude...they are extinct....at some point there was no one left to update the calendar. As far as I can figure, they chiseled everything in stone....time consuming, surprising they made it to 2012. Just a thought.

In case you are interested here is the beginning of a six part 'documentary' on the 2012 thing. Myself, I couldn't get past part 2.

Possibly because I am a big fan of Red Green.

But I am a huge fan of 'There I Fixed It'.

I don't care how much you protest...you have all done something like this in your lifetime. You remember the milk crate end tables in your first apartment?



I have actually done this. Recently.

It's Canada, eh?

Looks like the money might be talking here.

Sydney River McDonald's Murders - Muise ready to be sprung

From Wikipedia:
Darren Muise is said to have invested an inheritance heavily in the tech industry during the mid to late 1990s, generating millions of dollars in profits from stocks such as BlackBerry maker Research in Motion.

Oh, I am sure this had absolutely nothing to do with getting him over 200 day passes over the years.

This asshole brutally murders and then cools his heels in jail (albeit with some day passes so he can fuck his girlfriend and take in a movie) while he becomes a millionaire.

Good thing he murdered those people and went to jail, otherwise he may have blown all that inheritance money on crack.

Poor choice of words?

Been seeing this commercial for about a month...



...and I seriously thought they were saying 'nut sack'.

Three Days Off.

And what to do?

Well I can't go visit my sister because, frankly, I think she is off her gourd. Long story, and I don't know if I can tell it because it still makes no sense to me.

Anyway.

After work on Tuesday (which happened to be 1:30am, so technically Wed)I went to Sonny's to pick up something for Nurse Darling. I know, I am a crazy party animal/social butterfly. Thought I would share this with ya. He has this little gem under glass at his home.




And yes, they are dead rodents playing cards.

Then I went to Kimmy's on Wednesday to bum some smokes since payday is not til Thursday and she fed me!





Lobster pasta. YUM! (Plus she always gives me the leftovers, so there is some in the fridge right now but not for long)

Then I went completely wild today and went to the grocery store. I know, I am out of control!

Thought I might pick up some watermelon since the weather is so hot and miserable.



Think again....six bucks for six peices of watermelon that were not even the size of your palm.

A week ago, you could buy a whole watermelon for five bucks.

I think its a scam myself.

Sprucing up the old girl.

Finally getting off my ass and getting the car in shape.

Sonny The Geek did the body work on the car. I helped, I did so! Shut up! Every venture requires management, supervision and quality control.

Course, someone, and I am not naming any names (Boy) was messing with the cell phone camera and the resolution was screwed up so the pictures are small.

Anyway, Sonny did a great job. Got rid of the rust spots. I got myself new hubcaps and I think she looks better. Of course, once you put new paint on the parts you fixed, then you start seeing all the scratches on all the rest of it. That is when you debate wether to grab a couple extra cans of paint and do the whole thing. (Does that make me a redneck?)

Here are a few before and after shots.








So, the boy waxed it for me today.



But couldn't resist giving his a wipe down too.




I think she looks pretty good. I also have a chrome pin-stripe that I will put down the center of 'er.



After that I should be able to find her in the parking lot at the mall, don't you think? Right now I look like an Alzheimer's patient in the parking lot.

UPDATE:

Couldn't wait to do the pin-stripe. It's subtle, but I like it.

And how was your week?

I seem to have turned into a lump.

Nothing interests me, nothing pissing me off. Nothing worth ranting about, or rather, things pissing me off so much that I have been reduced to just a guttural moan on the subject.

What is there to say? The world is going to shit, or has already gone. The crap on TV isn't worth watching, the news is just a sponsor biased regurgitation of what everyone else is broadcasting.

Do they even keep records of what they were spewing last week, last month? Ten minutes ago? Just because he is dead, now you no longer think he is a pedophile? Or does it matter now that the king is dead, lets not bring up the dirty laundry, its in such bad taste. Give me a break.

I am not saying I think he was a pedophile, no one knows for sure. But I certainly don't think he was the second coming of Christ either. But give the media another week, the rest of the world will.

So, what have I been doing? Pretty much trying to ignore everything, in the hopes that it will just go away.

No such luck.

MJ 1958 - 2009

I don't know about you but I found it tacky.

Now I only caught the last half of it, but dark glasses at a funeral? Is this normal? Seemed like half those people were wearing those glasses to hide the fact that their tears were fake.

I know what you are thinking.....BITCH! I don't pretend to be anything else but to me it was like, his life was a circus side show and they carried it on into his funeral.

Say what ya want about the freaky'ness that was his life, he was one super talented dude.

Now it is over, maybe the poor man can rest in peace.

Gadget Queen.


Got a new cell phone today.

The Boy stepped on his so he has been using mine. I decided today to get myself one. Yes, I know he has a job and could buy his own cell phone. No its not the same as buying one for him. No, it's not, shut up!

This one has slide out QWERTY keyboard, much faster to text. It has a 2MP camera with video and an MP3 player.

It also has a few cool features. If you are taking a still picture and are afraid you might miss the 'look' or something. You can set it to take from 4 to 16 shots, one after another without pressing the shutter. It's like a fashion shoot.



It also has pre-loaded frames for some extra fun'ness.

Good Grief!

Anyone else surprised it took this long for someone to take a shot at Parez Hilton?

Oh ya, and he was of course so traumatized by the whole incident that he immediately phoned the police?



Uh ok, right after he Twitter'd it. Ya, that's exactly the way it should be handled, you are bleeding, forget 911, Twitter it.

When I first read this, I thought they said Paris Hilton but that would not have changed the first line of this post either.
