alright, what's gone on in the past one and a half months? hmm.. i really don't have a good enough memory to tell you. but in two weeks i'll be going on a camping trip by bike with my friend shawn. although, he's opting for the "get a ride there" option. wuss. it's only a five hour bike ride or something. i did two hours today, and i was fine. plus, that was my first long bike ride of the year. i think we can handle five.
i'm really trying to think of something else to write about, but am having no luck. oh well, some other time.
oh! i finally got my tax return check and spent it all on a portable cd player. i am very pleased, i must say.
that is all.
i own the spiral stairs! june 9, 2004
i put a jug stencil on every one of the steps on the spiral staircase at mackenzie king bridge, except for one step which was too wet.
oh, so fun! june 9, 2004
i just got back from jenn's. we went plant hunting and came back with a couple baby bleeding hearts. not as big as what we expected, but next time we'll have a more major target. it was awesome. we were like ninjas stealing a huge diamond, except for that we were stealing little plants, and we were seen by a janitor... oh! and speaking of things seeing other things, i saw four bunnies today. one of them looked like a jackalope, but he had no horns. *sigh*
fuck! june 5, 2004
i checked the mail today, as i have for the past two months, hoping to get my tax return so i would be able to buy chicken wire, and paint. once again, my check didn't come. but my brothers did! he's lazy, he already has a job that my mum gave him, and now, he got his check before i did. why is it that people who already have money are more likely to get more money? oh, and his check was for $630, while i am only expecting $100. wouldn't it make sense to give out the smaller checks first? the government sucks. i just want my paint and wire! is that too much to ask?! i'm sick of this!
i signed up for a contest to win a theremin from moog, and they gave my address to a mailing list. now, for the first time in months, i am recieving junk mail. what kind of world is it where even reputable instrument manufacturers sell out their customers to visa and viagra? sorry, mastercard and immitation viagra. so now i'm getting a new e-mail address at the end of the month once this gay contest is over. i don't know what it will be yet.
i handed out a couple more resumes today. hopefully i'll get a job soon.
an unexpected guest may 27, 2004
i went out back to water my plants this morning and found a blind bird taking shelter in the dead stump of a bush i removed last year. i don't know what i'm going to do with it. the bird shelter got shut down, so, in the meantime, i built a home around it with lovely bricks pillars, and a luxurious masonite roof to shade it from the hot, noon sun. i also gave it a dish of water to drink from, obviously. last i saw, it was sitting in its water. ah, the life of a bird.
i also haven't updated my accomplishments box lately. i think i'll do that now.
later that same day...
i went to check on the bird, and it wasn't in it's water, but a lot of other things were. it was all brown and had crap floating in it. ew.
later still...
well, the bird is now dead, it lasted a little under two hours in my care. it came, it sat in its water, and now it is dead. poor, poor bird.
detail is played. may 21, 2004
methinks i need a job. having no money, a shitty computer, dwindling art supplies and being sober totally sucks. oh sadness.
i'm still alive, i just have nothing to say. may 15, 2004
man, it's been two and a half months without an update. i'm good at this.
i've been slightly more productive lately, maybe i'll put something up in the next week or so.. i dunno. we'll have to see how things go, and whether or not i forget that i have this site (again).
the jug project begins! mar 6, 2004
i met up with reg and jess today. i was hoping to get a few good stencils down, but i wasn't really in the mood, and it was chilly. i only got one jug up, but it's a start.
hells yeah! feb 28, 2004
i haven't updated this thing in a while, so here's something for you; i'm going to see David Bowie! ha! damn right. and, on a not-nearly-as-cool note, i'm getting fish.
my plants wiil be so pleased! feb 13, 2004
my dad and i built some shelves yesterday, and we hung them today along with a grow light. now my plants won't be crowded by the windowsill anymore. huzzah!
mixed feelings feb 13, 2004
i dropped off a resume at 'herb and spice' today. it's a health food store in my first neighbourhood, westboro. i was all pumped about it yesterday, but immediately when i walked in i was like 'i do not want to work here'. but i handed in my resume anyway. i'm still gunna try for the job, and get as many hours as possible. i need the sweet scratch! also hope i get the job so i don't have to do any more job hunting. that shit blows. i think this is worthy of being put in the 'accomplishments' box. i also stubbed my toe, and ruined my big toe nail. it's all bloody and mishapen now. that does not go in the accomplishments box. no sir!
esteem, ho! feb 10, 2004
i've put up a new sidebar where i will list my many accomplishments. it will make me feel better cuz i get to realize all the cool things i do, and it will make you feel worse cuz you will realize that your life is useless and you are wasting your time. way to go, losers.
[no subject] feb 8, 2004
i cut my hair yesterday. i look like a twelve-year-old again.
bus fun feb 4, 2004
today, on the bus ride home, i sat next to the most coked up, drunk black guy that i have ever seen. he told me he had just smoked some rocks shortly before getting on the bus, and had a fourty of malibu which he poured appleton estate rum into. he claimed he just couldn't get it strong enough. he had his cd player with him, and was playing gangsta rap, and was explaining the lyrics to me. besides my good buddy matt, who was sitting to the other side of me, i was the only person not intimidated by him. everyone else looked visibly uncomfortable. it was, how you say, hi-larious. a little later on, he talked about how if you don't have beer or a spliff, that you shouldn't get off at lees station. you will be killed. i dunno, that sounds about right. oh, and by the way, he's the black jesus. he told me so himself. oh man! i almost forgot the best part. he talked about his sunglasses. "these are the best sun glasses ever. [i forget what he said for this part] they cost one dollar. i got them at the dollar store, but i didn't pay for them. i stole them. cuz i don't give a fuck." man, he's hardcore. stealing glasses from the dollar store. wow... he also rolled a joint of the worst looking weed i have ever seen. it was this brownish-green. but not any kind of good brownish-green. bad brownish-green. it came wrapped in a couple layers of brown paper. i was hoping it would be crack. i've never seen crack in person before. oh well. yeah, i guess that's all i have to say about him. man, i wish i had a tape recorder. it would've provided so much enjoyment to so many people on so many occasions. *sigh*
goodbye black jesus, i'll miss you.
"who's that behind me?" jan 21, 2004
oh, it's just black's photography, totally fucking me up the ass! i went to get my photos back today (they were a week late) and they charged me forty fucking dollars! friggin' rediculous! sure, i was pleased with the photos, but not forty dollars pleased. jesus. never again, i tell you! never again!
and it wouldn't hurt if you visited visitor's parking. i hear it's the best damn magazine out there. or at least the most resilient.
what's the deal? jan 19, 2004
alright, here's the deal; i've been eating almost non-stop for the past two days without truly getting full. i figure it could be a growth-spurt. but keep in mind, i'm already 6'2", and i'm almost 20. i think i'm past the growth-spurt stage. therefore, my new theory is that i have a tape worm. that could be fun! i dunno.. we'll see. i figure we can make a game of it! is it a growth-spurt? is it a tape worm? you'll have to wait to find out, but i'll be taking bets in the meantime. alright, that's about it. i had something else to say, but i can't really think straight right now. maybe tomorrow i'll have something up. who knows. alright, that is all.
ten bucks my ass! jan 13, 2004
i got a one-day job from my mum's boss today. my brother and i had to go to her house to move some boxes to the garage to be piced up. i woke up at ten-to-one this morning and headed over shortly after my shower. my hair was still wet, and the ridiculously strong winds froze my hair, then pulled at it. it felt like someone physically trying to rip out my hair. things only got worse when we got to the park, and my brother thought it would be a good idea to run (so we'd be out of there sooner). so we ran through the park. this was a completely retarded idea. the cold air froze our lungs, and i could taste blood the rest of the way there. i couldn't breathe, and i had blood collecting at the back of my throat. it was the worst feeling ever. and all for a generous ten dollars. i didn't even get payed right away. god that sucked.
visitor's parking was updated yet again last night. three new articles. it's pretty sweet. go there now. vpmag.ca
hahahaha! jan 8, 2004 (really early)
i gotta tell people about this guy. jimmy kimmel's been talking about him recently. his name is henry earle, and he's been arrested 73 times (i think) in 2003. not impressed? well he's even arrested yesterday and today, too. so fuck off! and he's got a mug sho9t for every time he's been arrested. man, that's a lot of photos... now pay your respect! and as a side note, i suggest anyone who has not heard af a.r.e weapons, to check them out as soon as possible (rough trade records). i suggest looking for the track "don't be scared". and, of course, check out vpmag.ca. and, by the way, i am drunk. i proof read half this thing, and i think i did a pretty good job of typing the rest, so i didn't proof-read it. what-ev, yo. what-ev.
oh! and since i made it clear that i lin kto my friend reg's livejournal, he has decided to update it more ofetn. check that shit out here. oh yeah! there was something else.. ah yes, jack white, of the white stripes, beat the shit out of the lead singer of the von bondies. check out the photo of the bitch right... here. i'm telling everybody i know about this. but don't think jack white got off easy! ...he's got some cuts on his knuckles. HA! ...that is all.
yay! i don't suck anymore! jan 3, 2004 (10:20 pm)
i came up with a new layout that has the minimalism i wanted, but doesn't suck! i'm so happy!
yarr... jan 3, 2004
alright, back to the old layout. i have decided to never do anything remotely creative while being sick ever again. i designed that other layout while i was sick. i totally fucked up a painting yesterday while i was sick, and i came up with the suckiest (?) stencil designs ever while i was sick. being sick is for losers. don't be a loser. don't get sick.
first off, i'm a genious. jan 1, 2004
i changed my mind about the colour thing. i now have colour. but what colour? i dunno! i cleverly altered some random image script to create a random colour-scheme script. genious! i was gunna mention something else, but i can't remember what it was. oh yeah! i'm a genious. alright, that's all for now. check out visitor's parking magazine at vpmag.ca.
new layout, new update dec 30, 2003
i came up with a new layout. no pictures, no colour. just good, clean fun. suck on it.
not all the internet geeks in the world could kill us! dec 30, 2003
most people reading this (if anyone does read this) probably doesn't know about the other web site i have; visitor's parking. well, we've been up for just over two years now. we've had our highs, we've had our lows. we've had roughly five redesigns since we began in 2001. we've probably 'quit' at least ten times. there have been times where the site wasn't even on the internet anymore. or times where it wasn't updated for weeks. but we're still, technically, alive. and, after having our origional domain name stolen from us by not one, not two, but three dns providers. (that's right! it took three seperate companies to work together to get us of the internet!) we're back! with a new domain name. vpmag.ca. i like it, i know you like it, everyone likes it. go check out the page now.
