The Ocean

For someone who is off work temporarily
I'm a busy freakin kid .....
Makes me wonder how I got it all done working two jobs
Speaking of two jobs, I am not gonna do that anymore
I owe the government of Canada $1200 fuckin dollars because I worked two jobs
Never again!
Granted I did have my money all year but what insentive is it to work hard if you'll owe some back come tax time?
One legit job and some cash jobs on the side that's it!
If your reading this government my second income will be..... cash or nothing
Cash on the dash or home on the couch
You try to work to get ahead, tax time rolls around Boom right back where you started.

Things I have noticed since I been off and had some time around:

Traffic lights are fuckin brutal; Does the city guy who controls them even drive?
People who wear sunglasses in the mall make me laugh.....and there is lots of em
There is people on facebook no matter what time I log on
my neighbourhood has lots of drama
my neighbours to the left are nosey
I have had it with some people, Ask for a favor and they disappear
The man is the man that's it no questions!
I have become a homebody and really enjoy it
My phone does not ring like it used to
chopsticks are cool and way better than a fork
smokers really do stink.... never noticed before but now I sure do
Prime rib is my favorite steak
I like walking in new shoes

Anyhoo I will be back here as much as I can as things start to mellow
Ps- I'm now a certified TEFL Teacher I passed my course!

Present Continuous

Not dead, just busy!

The County Fair In Pickle Lake

I will say that, I have not been here in awhile
I will also say sorry about that!
Would you believe me if I told you:
I am one busy kid for a guy that's recovering from surgery.
I'm still doin the course which will remain nameless, till I pass.
I had a bank error not in my favor, so I'm dealing with that
(that could be another post altogether)
Juggling Dr's appointments is also something I became good at.

A couple of random thoughts :

-Why is butter with salt cheaper than butter with out?
Are tires cheaper with air than without? No So WTF?

-People have told me English is the most messed up language in the world.
Exceptions to every rule and different spellings of the same word
I have come to the conclusion that it was invented right here in TBay!

-The Steelers got lucky in last nights Superbowl!

- I been having weird dreams that, I actually remember!

-I had fun in a bookstore for the first time in my life the other day
but don't tell Ms D that!

- There is a "for dummies" book on everything you can think of.

- I lost the bet on the groundhog seeing his shadow today
I bet he wouldn't and he did.

-There is actually a website called "101 uses for garlic"

-I enjoyed writing this but I gotta run....Cheers!

Hello Timebomb

Dr is outta town on the day I am supposed to see him
I found this out yesterday by accident

Speaking of accidents
Did you know
There is a self serve collision report center
right next to the criminal record check office
in our local police station
The hours (to get a criminal record check) are 10am to 3pm Monday to Friday
Hello dream job !!

Anyway back to the Dr problem
I discovered my surgeons office
does not even answer the phones on Fridays
because after two hours of trying, I went there
The hospital where my appointment with the surgeon was supposed to be
does answer the phone but only 7am- 3:30pm
but it don't matter ....they can't get ahold of anyone at the surgeons office
So I get an appointment that does not exist and it can't be fixed cause
Nobody answers the freakin phones
see why I'm getting pissed here....
I'm glad I don't have to pay for health care outta pocket
now we wait til Monday

In other news
This morning I signed up for a 60hr online course
to occupy my time at home
I will tell you all about it when I pass!

I'm doin some chalet skiing this weekend
This is where I sit at the bar and drink pop
eat chicken wings and Ms Doodle gets to go skiing
I don't mind and She says I'm a good sport
Cheers!

369

Most people would say the next number is 12
Not in Gold's world
Lemme tell ya
Sometimes it is frustrating
Sometimes it seems freakin ridiculous
But I wish I could just get some kinda answer that fits,
an answer that is attractive
I have a few things on the go since I been layed up at home
the best answer I got so far " in September"
Unless I come up with 10k by Friday
witch last time I checked is freakin tomorrow !
Not trying for the poor me approach here or anything
but like I said it's frustrating
Ms D says I should try to improve myself somehow
in my time at home ......I think she is right, it is a very good idea
I have the time
I have a laptop
I have the ability to upgrade or educate myself
except I'm home now
Not in September!


Ps -Send Money :)

48 Pages Of Passport.....

Not much in the doins today
I got rid of Joe the fish this morning.
He turned out to be quite the aggressive little bastard
attacking everything that swam in the tank.
So I took him to the pet store and they are gonna
find him a new home.
Of course when you get to the pet store
you can't leave there without spending any money
Two more smaller fish came home with me today
the names are yet to be determined
In the tank we have
Jack Dempsey, Micki Blue Eyes, J Edgar Hoover, Luigi Raphael + two no-names
Tonight when Ms D gets home we'll name em
I am open to suggestions tho....

Got the passport this morning
Would you believe it took only six days
We went last Friday and today it came via express post
Wow!!
The tax people should take lessons from the passport people

I have been humming this Tom Petty song all day
woke up with it in my head

Well yeah i might have chased a couple women around
All it ever got me was down.
Then there were those that made me feel good, but never as good as i feel right now
baby your the only one that's ever known how.......
