i wait for the sound of a new town, tryin' to avoid the sound of a beat down

turn off your electricity for five minutes! (and learn french in the process!)

this guy taught for the same school i taught at in japan! he was the teacher after me and v-chan's ordeal really hit the fan! turns out he has a labour board case against the old employer!! so great that someone had those guts!

today work was nuts in that i got a lot accomplished and feel somewhat on top of things rather than drowning! can you believe that? and, i guess they're sending me to victoria and i'm going to be with my sister that whole time. nice.

and my teeth hurt and i bit all my nails off and i need to go read, i think i'll go do that. i've been behind on homework and reading and need to catch up. bad!

i'm applying for sshrc funding for the summer semester and have to get a lot of paperwork done soon. the craft collective is going, but i'm not getting many responses which sucks. oivey. did i mention stewart might go to concordia? that means we're moving to montreal? hmmmmmmmm!!!

count to three and grin, smile and let me in.


now available in the ohsweetie store! jock toned scarf! rupert's been cranky since i've been home. yesterday i got absolutely no reading done. i've just been so tired. i started another experiknit. it might turn out all crazy, but cool. we're pretty poor right now and that's really draining. i'm going to do more walking, as gas is expensive, and well, after i put some moolah in the tank tomorrow morning i can't really afford to put more gas in the tank--it truly sucks. but we're making the best of it. still having coffees at the cafe. i think i'm going to climb into bed with circle works. i've got a busy crafty, homework filled weekend ahead of me. yay!

went out for some sodas, when will you return?

stewart and his birthday scarf?
today. is. stewart's. birthday!
and we celebrated with beer, philosophical discussion re: power, capitalism, foucault was name dropped, i just blissfully listened. j-mac calhoun was here and came along! so good! i made stewart this great sweatshirt. maybe i'll get him to pose on saturday for me. this weekend's going to busy and fun fun fun! i've got to get some circleworks read and get this house tidied up--it's quite quite messy! blah! ie. big pile of wool on the floor, dishes, not much food, etc. tonight to beat the stress a new friend and i went to stretch class together and then climbed into the sauna and sweated our faces off and chatted and it was really really nice. we both felt quite great afterwards. okay, off to bed (well, soon anyway)! might go to vancouver for reading break on a craft run? fun!
