Time for a blog I suppose!

I'm not sure who reads this, but it doesn't really matter, this blog poses as a great source of journaling and ranting, not matter what. I'm not fully sure what to blog about tonight, I just felt I should. I guess I could start with an update!

Well, my folks have been gone to the Island for about three weeks now. It's been a time with just Jess and I alone in a huge five bedroom house. My brother is finally home from Alberta, safe and sound I might add. I'm continuing to work at Blockbuster, I've gotten a raise, which was badly needed! School starts in two weeks and I'm dying to go back. Ha! I say that but a week into it I'll be eating my words! I guess I should just learn to be greatful for the time God has given me...because in a few years I may not have it.

I've been reading quite a bit lately. I guess I've finally learned that greatness is found in a good book. My next adventure will be reopening Steinbeck's The Pearl, I've just got to buy a new copy because I'm not quite sure what happened to mine. Also, I'm hoping to pick up a copy of Coheed and Cambria: Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV, volume 1: From Fear through the Eyes of Madness A graphic Novel. Whoa! That's a title if I've ever heard one! I've just recently picked up the album (of the same name ) and now I'm oober excited for the novel as well. Which brings me to my next update...music. I've recently picked up, besides cohhed and cambria, Nizlopi and Jeff Buckley. Nizlopi is a band out of Endland, who have a unique brand of music. A bit of accustic, jazz, double bass, and of course beat boxing! If you're looking for a change of music I'm pretty sure that you have nothing in your collection like Nizlopi...go pick up their ablum it's awesome. As for Jeffy B! Come on...classic! For those who have no idea who he is...he's part Led Zeppelin, part Lenord Cohen, and part James Dean. Yeah he's really hot! I've got the album Grace which has his cover of Len Cohen's Halilujah. It's beautiful.

On the DVD front...I've just picked up season one of House, I'm still making my way through it. I'm trying to space out time between my box sets because there are a lot that I want. Season two came out this past Tuesday and I want that as well. But I'm holding off! But September is the month of Box set releases and I can't wait!

Unfortunantly, I've tried something for the first time today...Gellato! I say unfortunantly because I so totally should have been eating it a lot longer than I have been! The stuffs amazing!
That's it! Have a good one and experience something different and new today!

Isn't it strange!

"Isn't it strange how we all get a little bit weird sometimes!" Oh Hanson, how I secretly (and now openly) still love you! But it's true what the three brothers from Tulsa say, we all get a little bit weird sometimes. Lets take tonight at work for example. I'm usually quite conservative at work because well...it's work and I want to be professional. But lately I've been getting a little hyper, my only explaination is that I've been working all night shifts with the same person. Now don't get me wrong I love working with Annissa but I'm getting to that comfortable stage with her now where I'm starting to act like myself. You know what I mean, (for those who know me well) saying stupid things, randomly bursting into song, dancing up and down the isles as I put movies back on the shelf...you know the same ole same ole! Yeah well tonight was no different than any other night of this week, mainly because of the Red Bull, but also because I generally was in a good mood! So everything was fine and dandy until I went on my break. I'd been working since 3pm so when 8 o'clock rolled around I was ready to chew off my left foot I was so hungry. I decided to go get somewhat healthy food tonight so I headed a few stores down to the Subway, where I branched out and got tuna on wheat (wooo exciting)! Oh boy, it was exciting...when I tried to pay for it with my debit card. Yeah it wouldn't work, it said that I had exceeded the limit for the day. Not only was I really confused...because I hadn't used my card at all that day, but I was also oober embarassed. And I had to walk back to Blockbuster to grab a $20 bill from my wallet and go back and pay. I was super annouyed and didn't understand what was going so I phoned my parents like 12 times until one of them answered their cell phones, and that's when my mom said that my pin number was probably stolen...and sure enough it was. My parents checked out my account information and there was a $1000 withdrawn from my account earlier that day. So, obviously my folks called the bank for me while I was at work and got all my cards and accounts put on hold. In about 20 minutes my buzz from my energy drink was killed. I even got so stressed out that my face broke out. Life sucks...but even more because tomorrow, or should I say later today (for it is 2:16 am) I have to do all the reporting with the police and the bank...yipee! People amaze me! It's kind of hard for me to even wrap my mind around the fact that someone could find out my pin number and then make another card. Can't you do something better with your time? Whatever! I'm goin' to bed and have my sorrow's drowned out by Boo Radley as I read once again the best book in the world, next to of course Lord of the Flies, To Kill A Mockingbird! Maybe my Boo Radley of a day will eventually fade far enough from my mind to allow me to get some well needed sleep!
