It was coined by Vanessa as the "Best Halloween ever" and I think we all agree. Things got under way at Kelly's around 9:30 for a pre drinking Halloween/Birthday celebration. Upon my arrival I mixed up some Appleton & Cola and then had a demonstration of Joey's costume, which was him on an Ostrich. It had a built in air pump, to pump the front part of his bird up. As usual at any pre drinking

Saturday saw a classic BHT outing. I'm pretty sure Allen Legere was on hand, as was the Montreal pornstar Malezia. Another BHT question was answered, the one of, "What is kept in the cupboard under the TV?" was solved when Marv had to retrieve an item -- toilet paper.Andrew & I showed up pretty early, claiming the usual table and settling into a few drinks before making our way to the pool table

I saw something tonight. Something that I had thought for years, I would never again see. The gas price being in the 80's. 89 cents tonight at the Petro. I remember years ago declaring I would do something if the gas price ever returned to 80 some cents. The problem is I forget what that something was. I'm sure I spoke of it to someone, so if anyone remembers, please remind me. The title of this

Friday saw a visit to the theatre for some Jackass 2. I don't remember the first one but knew the only way to see # 2 would be in a theatre for the reaction of others. I don't think anyone stopped laughing the whole way through, probably one of my favorite movies of the year.The Trailer Park Boys movie finally comes out in a few weeks, October 6th. There is only one way to properly watch it; get

The other day I stumbled upon what I thought was a disturbing trend. Teachers. The high amount of people I went to school with that have become teachers. I can count 5 or 6 without thinking about it. I think they will all be good at it, but missing something.Back in my day, teachers were people who had life experience, & told stories about it almost every day. They wrote books, built pools,

Last week Kelly & I headed to F'ton for a few days. Night one featured some drinking with Andrew & Tracy. I was unaware I consumed half my Southern Comfort during the sitting that featured some random card games, television viewing & musings. I finished the night off in style with a super donair & garlic fingers.The following day Andrew & I made our way for some golf, followed by a short recess

Saturday, I grabbed a shower around 9, enjoyed some Ultimate Prince Igor, then made my way down to the BHT to meet up with Oliver, JD, Jimmy & his g/f. I was flying solo for the night as Kelly was working.First stop as always, was the TD bank. I have strong distaste for the new Green Machines. The 700 language options, flashing green lights around the debit card slot, & slow sticky keys are a

A couple of weeks ago was Kelly's parents anniversary party. There were a lot of things that could have been the highlight of the night; - The older woman telling some guy about how she does strip aerobics as her husband walked in, sitting down beside her, - Pauly(no mafia) attacking balloons, yelling, & starting to strip, - comments from Kelly about a woman of P. Curtis type, - Vanessa dressed

Kelly & I ventured to Bay Du Vin last Sunday for some beach time, I sustained a pretty good sunburn & now have color for the first time in several years. Wednesday I traveled to PEI to the APA to do polygraph testing, making solid highway time, arriving 2 hours earlier then expected. During both adventures I took some random scenic shots while driving that turned out pretty good as they were one

A late review of the Canada Day - RnR Festival Weekend. Things kicked off Thursday with a short trip to Beresford & back, it was a pretty straight forward trip, all business no amusement, little cannonball/gumball like action on the highway. Later in the evening Kelly & I obtained supper from mymotherskitchen (the restaurant, not my mother's kitchen). I suggest everyone try the Club Sandwich from

As planned, I retired from work Friday, for the summer. Reasons: Because I can, & because it is probably the last chance I will have to take a summer off for about 25-30 years. So far there has been a lot of catching up on sleep, watching World Cup action, along with watching the Oilers shit the bed.I must be off for some lunch & viewing the 1984 classic 'Bachelor Party' Hopefully it is as good

Things got under way with a classic BHT outing Thursday night as Andrew & Tracy were in town. It featured the regular billiards duel against Vettel, a Quiet Riot jukebox selection that got louder during play, I could certainly 'Feel the noise.' & alternative lyrics to 'Mony Mony' being shouted by an older lady who would later buy us drinks.We joined B. Savoy for some mingling with sketchy people,

It was 25 out on my last day off(Monday) so Kelly & I headed to BayDuVin to comb the beach. Although we didn't see Relic, we did see a lot of crabs, clams & interesting birds.

The weekend got under way Wednesday after wrapping up 9 days of work in a row. I had some drinks & played poker before walking down to the BHT to meet Kelly, Brad & Julie. Drinks were consumed, conversation was had. We were joined by James H. who like always, had some good stories to tell. Things proceeded to the OH where it was pretty empty. Walking in the door it was like being on Oblivous, as

Maybe it was the all girl cage fight at the OH or the 2 free drinks I had through the weekend, that made it one of the better recent outings. I had to make a quick departure from work Friday morning after feeling like I was suddenly going to throw up all over the place, turns out I was not the only casualty with the same issue. By mid day I was feeling much better, but still a bit off. Kelly & I

I've been pretty busy the last couple of weeks working two weeks worth of shifts in a row, along with getting some stuff ready for next years possible endeavor to the APA. Last week I came up with the plan of a surprise visit to Fredericton to see Kelly on Wednesday. I ditched work about a half hour early Wednesday, at that point I hadn't done anything, literally in about 73 minutes. I caught the

Friday featured work, followed by a nap. Then I watched Comedy Central's Roast of Dennis Leary, eventually enjoying some alcohol, making my way to the Blackhorse around 11:30 to join Kelly, Vanessa & Hillary. After some consumption, conversation & greeting people I knew there, we proceeded to the OH, where the only other people present seemed to be a few people I work with. The finger was given &

I had an extended 4 day weekend.After finishing up 8 shifts in a row Wednesday afternoon I found myself at the start of my own March break and cannot recall much from the first few days. I know they were filled with some sleep, some grocery shopping, some George Carlin comedy, spending time with Kelly, getting a massive tax refund(almost enough to buy a real doll) and some movie watching.

I ended up having to work the weekend, preventing a trip to Fredericton for the Andrew Savoy Birthday Celebration Gala 2006. To add insult to injury the work schedule was changed again at the last minute, adding more days to my work week, to which I wouldn't put up with. Thankfully Andrew, Tracy and Kelly were able to make it here for the event Friday night, and I was able to take non

This weekend saw my return to the Tide/Cowboys for the first time since the infamous brawl 6+ years ago started by Peter M. that sent 5 to jail, 2 to hospital, including an old lady who was trampled down the stairs as everyone ran outside to avoid the flying furniture. The event went on to make the front page of the coming weeks 'Leader' and a follow up article a few months later in the 'Weekend'

Its been awhile since my last post, for no reason in particular. A combination of two 7 day shifts in a row at work, doing early Christmas shopping, downloading /watching a lot of movies, my cat coming home after 5 months away, and my dog passing on. One thing I look forward to yearly is drinking at Christmas time. The plan was for Thursday night action at the BHT to enjoy pre Christmas mass

If there is one cause I will fight for in life, it is the right to have a proper sized burger. Its no secret the size of fast food burgers have been decreasing over the years. I can remember when a Big Mac, was actually .... big. Gradually over time, along with every other burger, they have become smaller and smaller.

I had a 3 day weekend, which is like winning the lotto where I work. I rested up Friday, and left for Fredericton in the evening. The drive was like watching a 4 year old try to color, as the old guy in front of me had a hard time keeping his car between the lines. Once there, I had supper with Kelly, then we went to get some films at Jumbo. I passed by D. Savoy, without recognizing him or vice

The main event of the weekend was Saturday night, and although Marv wasn't at the Blackhorse with a Turkey dinner cooking out back, it was a pretty solid night. Things got under way at my house with Kelly & I, then quickly moved to Paiges, then onto the BHT. The Blackhorse was pretty full, probably the largest crowd I've seen there since last Christmas. After a few hours of classic BHT action, we

I had a 3 day weekend, with things getting under way Thursday evening at Vettel's for some poker. My cold prevented me from taking part in, but I did get to see some good photos B.Savoy has of the old school Blackhorse. Speaking of the Blackhorse, that was the next stop to see Dr. Marv at the BHT Clinic for a prescription to cure my cold. Vettel & I played our regular pool challenge, and later

My birthday weekend got off to a start around 6pm Friday, when I left for Fredericton. The drive was pretty interesting, with a mix of rain showers/blinding sun/kids running on the highway. Thankfully no one was hurt.Friday Night we headed to Jimmy's for what was suppose to be droping off liqour. (That Kelly ended up forgetting/locking in her apartment with no key to get back in.)

I had 4 of the last 5 days off work, making for a good unexpected long weekend.Thursday featured a trip to Fredericton while Kelly picked out an apartment. The highlight being a chinese buffet visit that brought back memories of my triumphant 51 chicken ball night at a small chinese restaurant in Ottawa about 10 years ago, that had a good xxx shop across the road.Saturday was my reunion with

The last few days have been classic at work. Starting off with one customer telling me, "Everything but the godd*mn chair I'm sitting in is new." Later on another customer had an email subject, "Beer & Tities" I was tempted to open it but I don't like beer.The most enjoyable moment was after a customer told me his problem, I told him what to do to fix it, he said, "Sorry big guy but I hate to

Last Saturday saw a BHT/OH adventure with Andrew, the first one in awhile, after a string of successfull random intoxicated adventures in previous years.Things started off pretty calm at the Blackhorse shortly after 9 with some rum and cola consumption on my part while Andrew had servings of draft. The usual best of pool challenge was had, I came out on the losing end of it from what I remember,

The weekend started off with working Saturday morning from 6 till 3 with intentions of heading to Moncton for the Newfies last night of his week long trip back to the good life. Kelly and I departed from home around 630 in the evening, arriving in Moncton around 8. We grabbed a stay at the EconoLodge, which I would give 5 out of 5 stars. It has everything you could want; its not a dump, has a

It's been a rather busy week, I just finished up 8 shifts in a row at work, 6 were training though so it wasn't too bad. Last Saturday featured a 6am shift, some brief afternoon napping, a pre gathering here at my place with Kelly, Chris, Julie and Amanda, followed by some OH action, which went well, but it was one of the nights when the allstar local celebrities weren't out, a bunch of imports

Christmas is coming pretty quick this year, kind of the same speed as one Richard Mac. displays when someone suggests he light the school yard on fire, and 15 minutes later you hear sirens and see a fire truck, then him being guided to the office by police.

Last night featured a solid mall visit with Kelly, it included; seeing B.Morris, a female mullet, an opportunity to make the comment, "now there's a joke if I ever saw one" in regards to a high school math teacher.We noticed some foreigners wandering in the hall, then noticed a new store that no one was working in, it turns out these foreigners have set up shop in the mall, and they have some

The highlight of the week was Wednesday night. It started out innocently with picking up Chris, Julie and Kelly, then heading to my place for pre drinking events. We were joined by Vanessa and Paige who never drinks, because she is always driving, but I think she has a fear of liquor, and uses the driving as an excuse. We must test this theory out.We headed to the OH, where it seemed pretty quiet

Kelly's Birthday festivities went well at my place last Friday. I believe I had about 10 drinks by the end of the night, which was around 1230, as Kelly only lasted about an hour at the OH due to her impressive shooter skills at my house, I believe she consumed 32, along with all her other regular drinks.

Roughly 3 hours until tip off time, tip off of my first glass of liquor in 10 weeks at tonights pre gathering at my house. I have given much thought about what that drink will be, and have decided it will be James Bond style, an Iceberg Vodka/Southern Comfort Martini while I play some poker. From there it will be Comfort and A&W, followed by some Bacardi and cola at the OH.A summary of events

Well it’s been exactly a month since my last post.No particular reason for that, just lots of other activities keeping me busy, including work, and the internet seemed to be pretty slack during the time.Important fact of the day;My streak of sobriety will exceed 2 months this weekend; hopefully it will end in another week during Kelly's birthday celebrations. For those first time readers, I'm not

I just remembered one of my favorite Jimmy Kimmel moments, he had a guest on and was asking him questions about the guest's upcoming movie and out of the blue asked, "Do you think god is mad at Michael Jackson?"It has been forever since I have had a drink of alcohol. Only about 8 days short of being a month. I think mainly this is due to a busy schedule and not having a Thursday, Saturday or

Last night featured supper at the OH, I don't know if I enjoyed the food more, or hearing the people behind us tell about how disgusting their neighbors house is with toys and kids stuff everywhere and how the mother is a stay at home and implied she should have the house clean, and about a wedding they attended that she was embarrassed to be part of.

The other night around 1:30am Kelly and I paused on the family channel for a moment as Art Attack was on. This one was some special late night action as he made a rhino out of the rhino's own piles of shit that were collected in a shovel and wheelbarrow from the rhino's living area in the zoo. Later on in the episode he was blowing paint around on a table using a straw, however it looked like he

It has been too long of a time span to recap all that has occurred since my last writing. I believe it all started with a taxi driver telling the joke, "What did one casket say to the other? Is that you coffin?" It also included a lot of work, Kelly staying over for a week (she only fell out of bed once), a few alcohol outings, a mr. noodle flavor powder explosion/fire on the stove, the Getaway

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

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

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

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

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

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

It has been a pretty low key weekend.  Friday featured making what probably works out to be $20 for playing hangman at work for awhile as no one wanted to do any real work. My team won, as we were bastards using f'd up words and phrases. Kelly had a gathering at her place Friday night, I was rather over tired so I did not participate in the drinking portion of things. There were a number of funny

On the weekend Kelly and I went to Halifax. We left here Saturday at 6:55am. We made very good time, arriving in Halifax shortly after 10. Along the 4 lane section of NS highway, I tried cruise control for the first time in my life. That lasted about a minute until I had to turn it off. It was a weird out of control feeling that didn't sit well with me. I prefer using the gas myself as I feel

Not much has occurred this weekend, it was rather quiet, with no going out. Strangely I have gotten to enjoy the childish games we play for training at work. They are what keep me awake. The highlight of them is always when my team decides its time to get dirty, and we ask one of the other teams a question that is so fucking complicated our instructors have a hard time thinking about it. We put

As usual, the weekend recap;Friday was what I like to refer to as an "opera house lite" night, as we only went for an hour to show one of Kelly's friends from away the place, and no liquor was consumed by myself. The highlight was Snaggle and others performing air instruments in the cage to some AcDc. Saturday was the main event of the weekend. After a short bit of drinking here, Kelly, her

Today while on break a suspicious person tried to get me to let him in one of our doors at work to "promote a new spa, give away some free pampering to some ladies" after about three times of telling him to go to the main entrance and inquire about having a memo posted about it, he finally accepted that unauthorized personnel are not allowed inside. About 10 minutes after break, the power went

Last night I went to Kelly's dance recital, which featured one kid just standing picking her nose for most of the dances. Thankfully it wasn't Kelly. It was finally a decent populated night out, as it appeared most of the city was at the OH. Kelly, Vanessa and myself walked from here, avoiding fireworks that were being shot off in the downtown, I had a brief conversation with Cst. Daigle, we

As Kelly mentioned in her latest entry, Wednesday nights outing turned from a non alcohol night to myself finishing off the rest of my prince igor here, then having a couple of rum and colas at the OH. It was a pretty straight forward night, the usual "who are these people and where do they come from" Wednesday night type of crowd, with some more familiar faces like Kenny M. and Eric and Mark F.

I will start off by saying that I had a viewer the other day who got to this page by searching google for the phrase, "miramichi girl video" An interesting topic was brought up on a Third Watch episode the other day. Sully said something that I often think about and is one of my fears, it was along the lines of, "Its like I went to work one day and I came home, went to bed, got up and 25 years

Today I'm struggling to hold on to consciousness after only about 2 hours of sleep.Last night had many highlights, some of my favorites include;- Arriving at the OH to find the Dawsons playing pool with cmac and trying to converse with Vettel and Snaggle. - An earing wearing guy was talking to Vettel for a bit, although he appeared straight, something was definitely up with him. He claimed to

Kelly and I rented Club Dread last night. I saw it advertised, but didn't know what it was about. Thankfully it turned out to be a very good movie. With lots of dirty proverb type references, and an 80's, early 90's adventure comedy style to it. It also passed the suspense/scare test, as Kelly jumped a couple of times during some of the murder chase scenes. Here's a good review of the movie. They

Nothing interesting has occurred in the last few days, not even during a trip to Sobeys in dtown last night which usually has something funny occur, or something in the store pisses me off. Like boxes all over the isles, or the one item I'm looking for is one of the few items that is out of stock, and probably in the boxes that are lying on the floor waiting to be restocked.Tomorrow the city

I was woken up by the title phrase yesterday morning by the plumbers helper who will rename anonymous, but most know him for his jumping the Newcastle Blvd train tracks once. Finally after a year, the upstairs bathroom is now once again fully functional, with new toilet and sink. I will be having the ceremonial first use later tonight. Today featured a trip to Beresford and back.Right now I'm off

The cable guy showed up today to put a few extra outlets in, he was driving a white unmarked van, I got worried for a few minutes that it was an accidental rectal rooter setup, especially since they called and asked if they could come over early when Kelly answered the phone. Right now the plumber is here fixing the downstairs toilet, it seems to have broken after about 8 years of service.

Its been a few days since my last entry, and in those few days here is what I have done;Friday I did a lot, but can't remember what. Saturday I left here around 7 and arrived in Fredericton about an hour and a half later, a new personal record. The drive there was great, hardly any traffic, and a small race with a rental echo. I passed him around Blackville, he passed me back in Doak on a hill

Operation Southern Comfort Consumption went well last night. I had half a pint of it here at home and 3 doubles of it at the OH, along with 1 double rum and cola. I hate how when making the switch from SC to rum and cola, the rum and everything afterwards tastes like grape juice. Thankfully we discovered the OH had SC and I was able to do a quick switch back to it for the rest of the night.The

The highlight from work today was a woman who kept claiming someone helped her last year with something that we have no involvment in what so ever and when I said we don't support said task and could not help her, she asked if I was new working there, when I said yes she shut up for a minute out of surprise.I'm now on my days off until Saturday.

It has been a few days since my first entry, and here is what I have been up to;- Kelly and I went to a wedding and reception in Blackville/Renous on Saturday. The food was good and the wedding had some entertaining moments. Twice, the people infront of us dropped their babyseat on the floor, and the entire church turned and looked at them both times, gasping and wondering if the baby was in it.
