Figured I better post something since we're already 11 days into the new year. Not much going on here, so take a look at all these nice photos.

MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!

Merry Christmas, everyone, and a happy New Year. I'm going to try and post more often next year, since this blog is a year old and only has 40-some posts.

Lime Crush

There's not a lot I can say about the current political scene in Canada that hasn't already been said. All I can say is that if there's another federal election, I'll be voting Conservative, and hoping that the rest of Canada will open their frickin' eyes and do the same. Do you really want a treasonous political party in charge of your country? Especially when they went about gaining that position of power by betraying every voter in the country? Think about it.

In relation to the last post, gasoline is now 80.4 cents/litre. I never ever thought I'd see gas prices so low again. I'm pretty sure they haven't been this low since I started driving (keeping in mind that was only a year and a half ago...)

87.4 cents/litre

I never thought I'd be happy it cost $70 to fuel up my vehicle.

I've always loved music. I grew up listening to Rock'n'Roll with my dad and Country with my mom. Recently I've taken up photography, and it's pretty well consumed my life. Annie Leibovitz's exhibition American Music combines both of these things in a wonderful way. I particularly liked the photos of Johnny and June, Hank III, and The White Stripes, but they're all good photos. Annie Leibowitz has pretty much become my favrit photographer.

And my new favrit webcomic is The Gun Show. It's sweary and blasphemous and not for the faint of heart/sane of mind.

Bad Day

Yesterday we had 5 goldfish, and now we're down to just 1. Most people will probably think we're foolish for getting attached to creatures known for their short lifespans. I am not ashamed to admit that I cried about it a little. It's really depressing when you do your best to make sure a fish is healthy, to watch it grow, only to get out of bed one day and see it floating at the top of the tank.

Also, my brand new camera broke and I punched a hole in my closet door. Luckily the place where I bought the camera was awesome enough to just straight up replace it for me. The door is still broke, though, and my fish are still dead, and it was still just a really shitty day.

Oh yeah, and I ran a stop sign yesterday and felt like a tool.

P.S. Yeah I realize it's shitty of me not to post for 2 weeks and then come back with this.

En Aytch Ell

How many NHL franchises can you name in 5 minutes? I got 25 out of 30, which I think is pretty decent considering I only pay attention to one team (and very little attention, since they suck.) And whats with their new jerseys? My vote is that they use the vintage jersey as their primary from now on.

Anyways, many many moons ago I linked to a webcomic called FreakAngels, saying I hadn't formed a real opinion about it yet. Well I think 31 episodes is enough to form an opinion, and I have. A good opinion. I really enjoy the art, and I'm excited to see where the story is leading. So go check it out if you haven't.

If you're interested enough in my life to care what radio station I listen to, it is Rock 97.7 fm (The best new rock and killer classics!) Follow that link and you can have a listen, and even find out what's going on in my new hometown. I've met some of the DJs (Cliff Kriz and Raff Papaianni), and they're a blast. The morning show is prolly the best, but I'm never up before 11:00 anymore.

Nada

Once again it's been a long-assed time since I blogged. I guess you could blame it on me not having a lot to say, but that's never stopped me before. I have been busy, but not that busy.

I Don't have much to say right now, and I've already wasted half of the day doing nothing. So I promise that I will have a new blog post 1 week from today (barring any unforeseen circumstances) with something interesting to show you or tell you.

Until then, please take a moment to browse my other blog, which is unfortunately in a state of disrepair. But at least it updates almost every day.
