I'm Back

After ignoring my blog for several months I am back to continue, but not tonight since I need sleep. This is just a preface.

Neglect and Weirdness

I have been neglecting my blogging duty lately, but for an excusable reason, at least to myself (I guess only to myself since I don't think anyone reads this) for I have had a strange event occur lately. On Thursday I awoke from a dream where the tail end involved a girl I knew in Montreal. I hadn't spoken to her in over a year (we parted on bad terms, partially my fault) and had no idea where she was. I dreamed she was living in Ontario and that she was sad and lonely (her dream version told me so; she was also wearing coveralls and working at a gas station), something that hit me so hard that I woke up at 5 in the morning and had to send her an email to see what was going on. It turns out she has been back in Ontario for 2 months and is sad and lonely, but even though she just recently bought a pair of jean coveralls, she does not work at a gas station. She is a really great girl and hopefully we can be friends again and if circumstance permits, more than friends... I don't want to obsess, but out of all the females I met while in Montreal, she is the most stimulating on many levels, a complete pleasure to be around. I guess time will tell and as long as I don't say or do anything stupid, I can convey the way I feel to her without sinking my own battleship.

Other than that I am feeling a bit down since I haven't been able to play and record as much music as I would like or get as much writing done. I still have some work to do around the house and hopefully will have all the major urgent stuff done by next week so I can get my routine back and start to do the constructive "me" stuff I have not been doing as of late. Anyhow, I must go buy some vodka to booze with Mike, Danielle, Christie and maybe some others (a joined birthday party for Mike and Danielle, even though her birthday is next week and Mike has his on the 19th).

May I

It's really May 2nd, but who's keeping track anyway?

I'm done smoking and feel good about it, especially since the money I will save is going to get me to Dublin for Christmas... there's no way I'm staying here. I think I am going to go for at least 2 weeks, maybe find me a nice Irish lass. As I am still busy with renovations and general clean up around the household, I have not been able to indulge in my writing and music as much as I would like, but soon enough I will be able to get back into my routine. In two weeks time I should be in a position where I can allot a certain amount of time each day for what I want to do whether it be music, writing, electronics, woodworking, exercise and casually work on throughout the summer the not so important, but necessary, final renovations that must be done.

Tomorrow

As of tomorrow I will be quitting smoking yet again... I think that this time around I will go for longer than three months seeing as my sole purpose for quitting is to save money. The main reason for me wanting to save money is to be able to get away from my horrible extended family next Christmas. I am planning on going to Ireland, Dublin to be exact. I seem to like going to places that have the same (or somewhat similar) climate to around here. This past Christmas was St. John's Newfoundland and I will now go further east this year. From what I have read Ireland has a moderately cold winter, no temperature extremes, but even if it does get a bit cold I'll be insulating myself with Guinness.

Pissed at Computers

I'm somewhat pissed off at computers right now... I've been trying to figure out how to make a single pdf ebook from multiple jpeg files and just got much closer, but I still have to resize my images and find a better file compiler. I am frustrated and I am going to shut down.

Lack of sleep and a sleepy internet connection

Last night I had the most god awful sleep I've experienced in a long while. I awoke at 2:30 am, which was just about 45 minutes from when I fell asleep. I was all congested, really warm and pissed off that it was not the morning. I ended up taking a shower in an effort to get my tired on, but it was futile. Tossed and turned all night long. Felt like crap in the morning up until I stepped outside into the nice weather; that seemed to remedy my ills.

My regular Internet connection has gone all wonky and I don't know if it is my service provider or my hardware. I really don't care as long as it's nice outside. I've quit cooking inside (on Saturday) and have opted for the more direct approach of the BBQ. The new Weber is working great and although I am more partial to charcoal, this natural gas beauty is serving me fine.

Over the past week or so I've been trying to finish up as many household projects as I can and hopefully in the next two weeks I'll have the major issues dealt with. After that I can get back to doing all of my personal ventures like writing, music and building stuff that I can't afford to buy like a bass amp or a Fairchild 670 (who am I kidding, I don't have the money for the parts to make my own yet).

One thing I must really get on top of is finding some good female companionship. This is the prime season for dating, well I guess it's really prime for screwing, but I need something with more depth and intellectual stimulation to help me whittle away the hours of these sunny days.

Hopefully something comes my way, because I only get out to the bar on the weekend and on the week days I've been quite busy, but I do work downtown, so there is a lot of females roaming around. I'm not keen on the whole internet dating, so I guess I'll have to rely on fate to send me down the right path or send one my way.

Excuse Post

Haven't left a post in a couple of days... I've been busy enjoying the warm weather and doing stuff around the house... have a new BBQ as well... I'll get back into the swing of things tomorrow...
