I hate getting mail that looks legit, has a return address, and looks professional. I just happen to be waiting for an important piece of mail. This could be it. I open it, and I see in bright yellow, TOM MCxxxxxx "BIG SAVINGS GUY" from Columbia House.
Saturday night, Vettel and I had a solid performance of 8 and 9 ball at the BHT. I had not played 9 ball in about 3 years, and I now recall that I liked it above 8. We stopped into Mikes for a few moments on a recommendation from someone at the BHT. It was its usual full crowd, no where to sit or stand, and I'm sure enough narcotics floating around to keep a small village of hippys happy, or the city of Bathurst.

Legion = No Hat
It has been an eventful week.
I cannot remember what took place pre Wednesday, other then it and Tuesday being my days off.
Wednesday featured an outing to the BHT and OH with Kelly, her brother and his girlfriend. The BHT was rather empty and I was asked for ID twice when asking for a glass of water by the non marv guy. The OH wasn't too bad, I had a good conversation with my cousin of LiL'Bastard fame.
Thursday was a visit to the exhibition, which was well attended. I think it was the largest crowd I've seen there in recent years, that was sober and not just kids looking to fight, although we saw a couple of 8 year olds tossing each other around for fun. I met up with B.Morris and spoke with him for a bit, Kelly and I played with some pussy in a barn and took a walk through the red rooster, which I think I saw the same people in about 3 or 4 years ago when I was last in there.
Friday I was able to leave work early thanks to Wally, and attend the BSavoy wedding festivities, which will be a highlight of the summer, and I regret not having my camcorder charged for the events after party. Kelly, Vettel, Snaggle, Kyla, and myself drank here after eating some massive Mcdonalds, which I plan on staying away from for several months. There is nothing like the feeling of "oh fuck this could be the day I have a heartattack" after eating there.
Some GranTurismo3 was played, which I had a poor performance and will blame it on my vision.
We then returned to the reception festivities. I played and won my first crazy 8 game in 5 years. The DJ allowed requests so we loaded up a few hours of 80's hits, although he seemed to stray from them a bit near the end and put his requests in. Snaggle and Vettel were Dawson Brother Idols, putting in a solid karoke performance, including some good mop guitar action.
The OH was attended afterwards where many notable persons were noticed and spoken to and Vettel had a wedding congratulations song put out to him and Chauncy, via Snaggle J. I wonder how many people heard it and then when seeing him in a suit, actually believed it. Pizza Twice was then attended.
I must now go and pick up Vettel and see who we can harrass tonight

The House of BUKKAKE!
I finished my first week back working for Aliant. I had almost no voice for 3 of the 5 shifts, which was interesting, but even with that, I had a good time. I guess with your supervisor flying across the floor in his chair 3 or 4 times a shift like it has a rocket engine on it, and the customers who say, "and I clicked on the boobs" and the ones that say, "that's bullshit" after you correct them when they claim they have done something that has been proven impossible, make it a pretty enjoyable job. Everything came back into my head pretty quickly and I picked up pretty much where I left off 2 months ago.
Friday at the BHT event I had a rum and cola, and had another at the OH. I drank about 8 glasses of water at the OH as well. I woke up several times the next morning feeling sick and almost threw up when getting ready for work. The water seemed to fuck me over worse then just drinking all night does. This has gotten me thinking that it's probably about that time for another series of independent water tests and a city council meeting like the famous John Smith one years ago. I think this is the second time I've mentioned that meeting in here, it was some of the best tv I have ever seen. I will never forget watching it on cable 10 as he brought in city water and poured glasses for the rest of the councilors to drink, instead of the regular imported water they had. I wish I could find a copy of that tape.
I have a receipt from the Pump House in Moncton on my tack board, because the name of the waitress on it is, Horne Nicole. I wish there was a website to post copies of receipts with cool names.
There are some photos of work on the new bypass to the north of the city in the paper today. I can't wait for its completion, so you can take it to drive around the city in circles, using it to bypass the north and then down the 11 onto the 117 and onto 8 or 430, back to the north bypass, or the other way around. It will almost be like an oval road course around the city.

Gonna Be 58 Today With The Heat
Lately I've been paranoid that I'm on a reality tv show and don't know. The other day while driving with my nephew he asked me, "What's the name of that guy with the long tongue? He's in a band." I had to look around for a few seconds to make sure there were no cameras and I wasn't on Oblivious or something.
Kelly and I went to Bathurst on Monday for something to do. We heard "cocaine" announced over a stores PA system twice, either they have an employee with that name or they were running out of cocaine at the cash. We had lunch at Wendys, where I had the triple decker cheese burger. As Kelly said, it looked like the large cheese burger picture I posted on here a few months ago. I felt like John Candy in the Great Outdoors eating the huge steak as I ate it.
We visited Staples where Kelly got some school supplies and I played with one of those kids books where you put the pen over the words and it says them out loud, I made a foul phrase from it but forget what it was.
The drive home was pretty good, excessive speed was used a few times on open sections of the highway. We had a good race with a new Honda Accord, I closed in and finally passed him in an uphill passing zone, then had a solid lead built up, but lost it thanks to a MDI truck doing 70kmh. Behind me I noticed the Honda and another car battling it out side by side for second. A short time later the Honda passed us while I was blocked behind the MDI truck.
Tuesday my issue at work was finally resolved, I have been granted my transfer back to my former department, and they appear pretty happy to have me back. I have a couple of days of reorientation and then go back to regular work next week.
Yesterday at Tim Horton's downtown, the Dawsons started talking to Kelly and then me. I think they must have a photographic memory and remember everyone they have once spoken to, and consider them friends. We were told twice that it was going to be "58 out today with the heat." I think it was better weather then Cindy Day gives.

I have worked a total of 1h 25mins this week because my transfer process wasn't completed properly, and my main password to logon to the systems was lost before ever being given to me. I've been given/have taken, 2 days off the schedule until they smarten the fuck up.
Kelly informed me that a folksong singing event broke out at the BHT last night.
I've had a few good business ideas lately, and if I had the time I would probably put one of them into motion, and I don't mean ideas like the one of turning bay du vin island into a porn island retreat resort when I was 13. Although I still want to own that island one day.
Summer is going by rather fast, another 4 weeks and its pretty much over, I suppose I slept most of June, but it wasn't that nice out anyway.

Romper Room
It has been pretty quiet again this weekend, I fear if I move too much I might either melt or catch on fire, so I haven't done much. Kelly and I watched Big Brother last night, and made another attempt at getting past the last Mark Hammond mission in The Getaway this afternoon. I think she got the closest we have so far, she only had 2 guys left to kill.
Thursday night saw a trip to Choo Choos. It seems I go there once every summer at least. It was a total family affair, with Kelly, my sister, brother inlaw, and cousin from Ontario attending, along with Kelly's friend Vanessa. It was the usual Choo Choos meat market atmosphere downstairs, and the attic house party setting upstairs. I did not drink, as I was the transportation for the night, and had a final assessment at work Friday morning at 8am. I kept a low profile most of the night, spending time with the above mentioned and saying hi to a few people I knew. I also got to experience the, "Do you know who I'am?" question when not having a fucking clue who the person was, I quickly clued in though when the persons name was said, being a former exgf of a friend. I think the only other time I have experienced that type of situation was one day while getting the car serviced this guy started talking to me. He knew my name, my family, and so on, so I played along not knowing who he was at first, but by about a minute into the conversation clued in to who he was. I got about 2 hours sleep and was off to work wide awake, and ironically it was the first day of the entire 5 weeks of training that I wasn't one bit tired. I did however sleep for about 14.5 hours straight between Friday night and Saturday.
