slow down, i'll jump out

it's still really cold here. i wish that i could go into a fairy-tale style sleep from december 27 to april 2. maybe wake up for a few drinks on march 17. this is the worst time of year to me. it's cold and nasty and hard to find a reason to wake up in the morning. chris is shovelling us out from yesterday's snow. i think we got 30cm by the end of it.

i went in for some overtime at work yesterday morning, and after 3 hours the boss called it so we could get home before the weather got worse. she offered me a ride home, because usually i just walk it. she was going on about how with her car, she's never sure if it'll get going again after it's stopped. i jokingly said "well, you can just slow down at the corner, and i'll jump out." we laughed. and then when i went to open the door, she said, "i'll just take this corner if you want to get out here." i look down and the car's still moving. i mean, i was just kidding about the slow down and jump out. ahhh, good times.

out neighbour was being an idiot again last night. whenever she comes home, she's always talking to herself, then she stomps her way up the stairs and blasts the shittiest music i've heard since my sister was in junior high school. last night she had a party with all her blonde buddies who were talking about how tim is cute, but danny's tall, and therefore cuter. it was all very interesting. grrrrrr.

current music: comets on fire, blue cathedral (though i feel like i'm on the acid trip i never took)

it all makes me think of a bruce willis movie, the one when he's on the wing of the plane and fighting the terrorists and getting his butt kicked, but the joke's on them, isn't it? 'cause he lit the fuel and they all blew up!! ha! suck on that, terror-twits! 'cause if you're getting blown up by a guy demi dumped, now THAT's just freakin' pathetic.

anyway, you jumping from the car is pretty much exactly like that. word.

well, if meesh comments, then so will I! There's nothing to be lost except some strange canadian kinship that doesn't really exist anyway. So you understand each other's cold, so what? I'm cold sometimes even when it's so hot, hot, hot. Except I'm back to being alone. It's sad, maybe i need to experience a few breakups to understand the feeling of warmth that you get when you cuddle and no one else knows your plans for the night. There's nothing better. By the way, now that we're all back in our native lands, do we finally settle on one love and one place. That seems to be the theme as far as I can tell...
