I hafta say I like this video for it better. It's just more...artsy or something.
It's the one on the left, dunno if it is still on the web all by itself, someone may have tried to have it pulled.

I've seen WAY too much snow in my lifetime.

CG, I'd suggest coming up here to work, but you already know about that Act 10 stuff and our Gov'nor who wants to make us worse than your home state when it comes to edumacation.

I wasn't happy with how my last pumpkin carving went so I decided to try again. It definitely turned out better but there are still a few issues with it, but overall I am still much happier with the way it turned out this time. :)

I think I've seen more days with snow than without throughout my life. Things I've never seen (outside of controlled environments), dangerous spiders, dangerous snakes (there are rattlers in Alberta, but only in the deserty parts), hurricanes, ice storms (like Quebec gets), etc.

It may be cold, but the weather is generally stable.

My favorite thing to hear from an engineer this week: "There are wiring issues. I don't understand how this EVER worked at all."

Curses. I lost my 'Ewe rock!' pin that has a ram holding a guitar. At work. And now all of my co-workers are making fun of it, because they found it, and I'm too embarrassed to claim it. Dangit, I liked that pin.

After 2 very painful months after finding out he had terminal cancer, my dad passed away on october 15th. Thank you all for your good wishes, messages and hugs while I was struggling the most, now my dad is at peace and I'm coping in every way I can, knowing that I'm not alone.

I work part time as an electrician, worked on a couple of small water well control systems that were wired in a way that really did make us wonder how it ever worked at all. Also made us wonder if anyone had died from trying to operate the systems, they were that screwed up.

I'm very sorry to hear that, Morfina. My best to you and your family.

That desperate search that ensues after you blow your nose, feel a giant pebble-sized booger fly out, then look in the tissue and there's nothing there.

WoWWay does this too and while it's kind of annoying, I just don't watch enough over the air TV for it to matter. It's basically just Supernatural, Shield, and The Simpsons for me.

But this is basically about stopping cable theft. The "blocks HD channels and makes you pay for them" is just a bonus.

Okay I don't talk with this with anyone because I'm in full denial and pretend its not a big deal, but on late nights such as these cars park ON MY STREET for several minutes! Tonight one had its hazard lights on, so I thought "Hey, I'm a good Samaritan I'll see if their okay." Well the moment I opened my door THEY LEFT! As in, they were probably pretending to be in a hazard light situation so they could park outside my house. I don't mean to sound paranoid....THOUGH I AM! This is creepy! Are creepy car people spying on me? Am I a player in whichever apocalypse is happening at the moment? I'm so confused.

I just checked your file and it is clearly flagged DNDUH*, so I'm sure it's just a random happenstance.

Saw that. I guess Comcast would rather that people cut the cord with them entirely rather than having a reason to have their cable physically coming to their house at all.

I mean, they could intersperse ads on the wire* about how you could "upgrade" (from "free") to their premium offerings (you know, like Hulu does), but instead they'd rather amputate. Sooooo dumb.

I wish I had more candy to give to trickortreaters last night, my dad thought nobody would come to our house because not many people came last year. I wish I remembered before last night that the reason we didn't get many trickortreaters was because of Hurricane Sandy. Ran out in an hour.

In third grade, I asked for the Star Wars soundtrack for my birthday. Parents got me this instead:

And yes, it was an 8-track.

Eventually I got over it and forgot about it. Then yesterday morning at a tag sale, I come across this for $2:

FINALLY!
