The Boring Life I Yearn to Avoid

January 5, 2008
These past few days have been nothing short of mind-numbingly boring. It is the only term to put to how I have felt. Thursday I went to my classes. My Medieval Violence looks to be good, but I ended up dropped the British History due to the fact I already took it at the University of Calgary. I have taken up a Anthropology of Gender course, which Adam kindly agreed to take with me. The only problem is that I lack the pre-requesites for the class and am still awaiting a reply to the email I sent her over a day ago. I have yet to take my History of Women course, which I know I will love, and my history of Napoleonic France.

Other than that, I have had nothing to do at all. I walked to Safeway yesterday and bought some more yams (see inset - yes I took a picture of the yams I just bought…). I cooked with yams for the first time on Thursdayyams. Made a yam casserole of sorts (brown sugar, milk, honey, mashed with boiled yams and baked with pecans on top), and it was really good. I actually went to Safeway for margarine and cheese, but decided yams were worth buying more of.

Adam came over yesterday as well, for a little. We watched Home and Garden Television. We were planning on going to a movie, but couldn’t find anything worth going to see, sadly. We debated for a while, but soon the smooth house-hunting skills of Kristie and Phil on Relocation, Relocation took over, and we were laying around watching that. Such is life. He went home, and I went to bed, but woke up around 1am feeling naseous, dizzy, faint-y, and, oh lucky me, was hallucinating. So I gave Adam a ring and he came over and spent the night with me to make sure I didn’t die or anything drastic. I kept hallucinating about Dani Gore, and only thing morning did I find out who she was with the help of google. What a weird thing to hallucinate about. Jeepers.

Oh, I did start working on my passport application yesterday, which is the beginnings of #60 on The List and part of my 2008 Resolutions. I will hopefully be able to throw that in the mail by the end of this week so I can get on to travelling!


Sex Show

December 1, 2007

Wow, I’ve been neglecting life! I guess term paper month will do that.

So three weeks ago I went to the Sex Show. It was SO FUCKING BORING! Just a bunch of stands with thongs and dildos. Who cares.

Adam Jones and I

But I did it, I don’t have to like it for it to count right?

Also last weekend I went to Montana to see Tool, and I met Adam Jones from the band (see inset, picture by my Adam). It wasn’t on my list, but it was still cool. And I totally proved I had the balls to approach someone famous. Pretty cool, if you ask me.

Also, I’ve updated the list, so check that out.
