Procrastinate Much?

Wow...I believe this is the longest I have went without blogging (save for the times I was on vacation). Nothing much has been happening in my life, which may be the reason I'm feeling blah.
Raptors are out of the playoffs, a lot of work is to be done both at work and at home (and of course I'm not doing it because I'm tres lazy) and I'm spending money like I have it (in all fairness, I do need a new clutch for my car).
Seems like I'm in a funk again, but at least I have a new favourite word for the moment: ridonkulus.
Ridonkulus!

Screw Them!

There has been a glaring lack of recognition towards the Toronto Raptors, despite the fact they are currently entrenched in a playoff series with the Orlando Magic. The reason? I can't stand them this season. Can't really explain it except for the fact that they are maddingly inconsistant to the point it drives me mad.
Couple that with the fact my basketball hasn't won a game all season, in additon to my secondary team (Phoenix Suns) not looking good to win their season: basketball is making me cry.

Here We Grow Again

Gotta stop with the unhealthy eating again and rationalizing it with the whole "I exercise" excuse. Focus man, you gotta focus man.

Looks like instead of Cancun, it'll be Biiba Los Begazzzz!!! Maybe

"Hello, I'm Jason..."

Felt weird to be out on the road again and being an actual inspector. First time in months, to be exact.
Eh. It's overrated

And It's Begun...

...NBA Playoffs! That means less sleep, more angst, and feelings of sadness that I didn't get to be a professional basketball player. (So the last point is ridcurous...still...)

Forbidden Kingdom

Good movie: great action, funny parts, good storyline. And the thing that tops is all off? That's right...Chinese people talking engrish

Yes Bono...

...it is a Beautiful Day. Got some stuff done, on my day off no less.
Can't wait for the summer to roll around (minus the heat)

Oh...Aaaa...Cys

Awesome; we picked out our Master Ensuite from Oasis Bathrooms and it should be made in about 5-6 weeks. Can't wait.

Stupid

Only word I could come up with as I sat in a meeting with the people I work with. I hardly ever like to use that word (and mean it, that is); but, seriously...stupid people

Shine Hath Gone?

So all the fun and joy of the "beautiful game" I decided to join may be over this season. We were bumped up a notch to a higher division and the competition (that is, "prick-levelness of the opposing team") has subsequently raised as well.
Yesterday found me on the receiving end of an opposing player trying to elbow me as I was running towards the ball. Luckily I avoided it and screamed, "WHAT THE HELL? WHY YOU TRYING TO ELBOW ME?" He responded by saying "that was for the last play." The hell? (I will not resort to saying a stereotypical statement about his ethnicity. At this point, anyway).
And the ref? "Play on, nothing happened." Seriously. I could've gotten hurt.
Oh, and the fun-loving, joyful team I had from last season? Apparently we lost some key players who made up that environment and was replaced by some equally nice but different players. Players who are much, much more competitive. I felt like a special olympian last season. This season? A special commonwealth gamean (if that makes sense).
So, needless to say, we lost (bringing our record to 0-2-1). Hopefully next game will be a bit better. (Winning cures all, no?)

Where Has The Weekend Gone?

Pretty fast, but at least we got some stuff done. Including going to the dump and disposing of things in the garages, and fixing up the dining room table and buffet. Of course we're gonna have to go back to return three of the six chairs (wobbly suckas).
And now I have to gear up again for another week of...sigh...work

Funkytown

My mind is sorta in a funk. I dunno why, but I hope it goes away soon.
On a brighter note, we finally got our dining room table, chair and buffet. I always thought that when I had my own place, I wouldn't be Ikea people (that it was not built well, looked cheap and was "University Student Furniture"). Well, I guess things have changed.
And having a mortgage doesn't help either

Clutch (My Heart)

Because damn cars are esssssssspensive! Gotta get a new clutch for my car, and to buy a replacement part from Toyota is quite costly. Luckily I have a slush fund for normal car maintenance, but still. I'd rather use the money, on, say...food

My Recent Posts Have Sucked

No denying that. I've hit a mental/"creative" lull.
Work is getting a bit tiring, I've yet to train for my 10km run, I'm gaining weight, no renos are currently happening when they should be, no motivation...blah.
Soon I hope...soon

Uhhh...Yeah...Next Month?

I believe my 10km run is tnext month.
So, how many times have I run 10km since last year?
Zero.
Wow...and what happened to my goal of reaching 155lbs by August? Well, it's not August yet, but I'm not well on my way.
Motivation, where are you?

Relief

I won't be put down yet

Overreacting In My Mind?

I hope. Got a call from the Doctor's office again; got another appointment next week.
Got to stop letting the mind have bad thoughts. I wonder how I'll feel mentally/emotionally at this point next Tuesday. Sigh.

Seems Like A Lot Of Things Happened

Finally got my computer to start working again after moving upstairs from the basement. In the span of two days:
-went to Bioped to get molded for new orthotics. I'm geekily excited about this
-new soccer season started. My team of recreation/fun from last season turned into a team of competition with about half the roster overhauled. We're a lot better, but maybe not better. Oh, we lost. I came this close to scoring a goal...I'm not going to forget about it for a while
-went to the Doctor's office (high cholesterol again; no surprise I have the arteries of a 50-year old). I've decided to try a fish oil pill diet mixed with Metamucil, as perscribed by my workmate Andrew who also has (had) some bad cholesterol. Let's see how this one works out
-made Guacamole again. Didn't turn out so good because the avocadoes weren't completely ripe. I think I'm getting better at it
-went curling for the Region of Peel annual Health vs. Housing challenge. Fun times indeed
-am getting into the TV show "Hell's Kitchen". I think that will be the new TV show I pick up for the year, no matter how horribly realityish it is
Whew!
