Well when I wake up tomorrow to get ready for work I'll give it a check as I did this morning.

I know it's tantamount to blasphemy in this town right now, but I really just don't like Evgeni Malkin.

It's not a Russian thing, I enjoy Ovechkin, I love Zherdev. I just really don't at all like Malkin.

I thawed some salmon that I had frozen in the freezer because I wanted to make it for a late dinner tonight, but I don't feel like eating it now. Is it OK to leave in the fridge for a day or so before I cook it? Or should I just re-freeze it?

I wouldn't eat it. But then I don't eat anything from the sea.

cook it as fast as you can. Once you defrost it, it shouldn't be refrozen. Also, it'll be mushier than usual if you leave it thawed for too long. I give it 2 days max unthawed

Whatever. Most women don't like Young or Dylan either. They're also responsible for the Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, Josh Groban, and the Dixie Chicks.

The most interesting thing I did Friday was take a walk around the +15's at lunch, thinking of waydowntown, and thinking I should try not to grin idiotically at all the people I'm passing by, who are intrinsically trapped in the process of their jobs, who are also mindlessly wandering those +15's to I guess, take their minds off of their responsibilities.

Comparison of dress, shoes, and style, and it becomes pretty easy to see the stratification of Calgary society.

Then I think of past ideas presented to me, of reconstruction and renovation, modernization, patterns of people, and that the Eaton center food court that overlooks 4th Street/3rd street station east is a construction dive.

I applaud the person who had the sparklies on their balerina slippers. It brought a bit of colour to the otherwise overmanufactured, speak to the hand fashion that was so prevalent.

If you repeat a lie enough times, it sometimes becomes true. If you repeat that truth enough times, it becomes a cliche and then doesn't matter anymore, in effect hiding in plain sight, as people already know it, and well, if it doesn't affect them, or even does, it's not as if it were significant.

In a round-about way, perhaps--but don't forget, generally the record company execs who discover and then prioritize those acts are male. Stupid girls/women buy albums, yes, but if it weren't for male execs deciding "OH MAN THIS IS THE NEXT BIG THING!" the albums wouldn't even be available

It's funny observing the ebbs and flows of CP user traffic from a distant time zone. It's so lonely on here now.

Don't include me in that group!!
I like Neil Young.
Hey I grew up in the 70's, I like good music, I just don't like Springsteen.

I despise living with other people. Don't know what I'm gonna do when I (eventually) get married.

I live alone, and have no idea how people can deal with roommates. It was bad enough when I lived at home.

having 2 days off in a row is really nice.

Totally. I did my time living with people and I'll never do it again unless it's a LTR. I don't know what's worse, roommate-wise... A friend or a not-friend. It sucks living with a friend because you're constantly bombarded by your other friends coming over all the time, uninvited by yourself, but invited by your roomie. You just never seem to get the alone time that you need. And it also sucks living with a non-friend because if they're into different things, you have to put up with them and their hobbies and habits.
I used to live with someone that liked wrestling. I personally can't stand wrestling. The guy was cool and everything, but he'd have those PPV nights where all his buddies would come over and watch fully grown, half naked men rub their bodies against each other and jump around and bounce off elastic ropes and yell and scream (can you tell I hate wrestling?).
He also liked computer video games and would constantly be playing video games at the kitchen table.
To be clear, I don't look down on either of those activities, I just don't partake in them. So contantly being around them eventually got to me and I had to move out. Indeed, living with people sucks.
And family is no better. After being overseas for a year, I had no place to live when I got back and had to stay at my parents house for a few months. Brutal. I was 28 and living at home. In the spare room beside my parents' room. One sunday morning my stepmom stuck her head in my room to ask me if I wanted to go to church (lol!) and discovered that I was not alone in the room. It was terrible. They actually had "the talk" with me at the age of 28. As if I wasn't already motivated, that episode propelled me toward the red line as far as finding my own place was concerned.

I had a good night, woke up with food in my mouth and poop stains in my gitch!

Woo!

bigtmac19 · 02-07-2009, 02:01 PM

I think that pretty much enters my realm of "too much information"
