I guess things are boring at my house. Renovations started on Monday. Today they are back and installing the gyprock. The plumber came on monday George. Nice and cute guy!

Have been spending a bit of time on my emails at yahoo. I am starting to like talking on yahoo thing. It is fun but I have not had many to talk to. I asked my bro (no time he has school, work and his girlfriend), my sis (no PC for the moment), and mom (she's using AOL). I don't know anyone who would like to chat like that so I spend my time learing over the net Japanese. The lessons are fun. Learning some valuable things.

new shirt!

I recieved my t-shirts tonight night! B-G went to get them at the post office. I am wearing the one that I got from Tony's shop (post1 & post2)! It's for Katrina Hurricane donations which Tony's giving all its proceeds to the Red Cross! It's nice! Customs was 15.46$ CAD...

thanks to WTF...

I am 46% evil.

I could go either way. I have sinned quite a bit but I still have a bit of room for error. My life is a tug of war between good and evil.

Are you evil? find out at Hilowitz.com

Today started pretty normal. I checked my emails and decided some how to go on Yahoo messenger. A few weeks ago I was googling and was trying to find a school to learn Japanese. I found a course in CU, which I was glad because I still have my ID#. But I found the japan-guide, which has a language exchange forum. I added my name and I have gotten a fairly amount of emails. So, I decided to respond and thank them for emailing me.

And today I talk to a really nice guy. He's married and has a 8yr old son who he sometimes takes fishing. His son likes baseball, I told him I don't really like sports. He laughed and said he and his wife don't either. We did the phone calling and spoke person to person. I only had done that in 2000 which is a long time ago with my mom, at that time it was to save money (long distance).

Time flew so fast, I was so into blabbling we ended up talking 3hrs. B-G was here but he was on a rant about doing his taxes. Also, he knows I love him and feels secure in our relationship for me to talk to other people. Plus this was a language exchange and it was fun!

I learn a few new sentences:

Douitashimashite = you are welcome
Sugoi = great!
Shine = die or I kill you
Shoushiga warui = conditions are a little bit bad
Mata modori mas = you come back again or I'll come back soon (politely)
Mata modoru (yo) = (impolite way)

the 'mas' & 'yo' are what make it different.

One thing though, I love learning! I cannot wait for my course in January!! I am sorry for some other people that wanted to talk to me while I speaking at that time. It was truly fun!!!

I took a 4hr nap... And woke up with B-G not being home. Called to find out he was at the fruit store. Decided on a meal which I will be making this evening. Waiting for B-G to come with the groceries... Having gnocchi in rosee sauce, chicken corn showder, korean noodles (small leftovers), chicken fried rice with tiny pieces of steak and my own special salad! YUM!!

We left Thursday (9/15) afternoon 4pm. Got there at around 10pm. to the Holiday Inn on King. Had a huge fight and made up. Watched tv and fell asleep at corner to 12 am.
Friday (9/16) B-G headed to the examiner training session. I stayed in bed until 11 am. and ordered room service. The maid came and made up the bed and got extra towels. Watched alot of tv, wasn't feeling well at all, so I decided to stay in bed. I had my friend for the trip! B-G came around 4 pm and we ordered the 14 oz. steak with really great veggies. and for dessert we got a banana cake that had tons of whipped cream a bit too rich for my taste. Had a quiet evening...
Saturday (9/17), woke up early and helped B-G with his stuff. He left I slept a bit and then took a shower. By the time I finished B-G had finished was 1/2 way done. Changed rooms from a double bed ($199) to a king size one($260), as we had booked. He gave me a call and said he was going to have lunch with his colleagues! In the evening we had Japanese food from Hsu Restaurant! I started to feel really sick. I ended up throwing up most of the night and felt like i was on a life boat! Ended up sleeping around 4-5 am.
Sunday (9/18), B-G had only 1/2 a day which was great! We took it easy. Went to Square One in Mississagua. We shopped for clothes for him. In the end he got a burgandy polo at West Coast. Which is so nice! I didn't buy squat! We ate Popeye's, one meal that we split between us. Headed back to the hotel and decided to take a small nap! Which led to us eating once again at Hsu Restaurant!
Monday (9/19), check-out time! Woke up early 8am, took a shower and packed. Headed out to Scarbourough to Pacific Mall. Got an IKEA book in Chinese for the neighbours downstairs. Bought a tea set and 3 tier box at Utsuwa-No-Yakata. Got also a 24kt. Ox cell phone pendant! It's so cute! A few stickers and some food for the trip. Stopped at the Big apple and bought an apple pie and 3 bags of apple chips! Ended up home at 9:30 pm.

Called Mondo to thank him and asked if he cleaned up the mess that kitty may have done while yanking the bamboo from the shot glass. But apparently he doesn't know that either, and here I was going to thank him for cleaning. He was like 'What you say that there is something missing?' I'm said, 'No! I was calling you to thank you for babysitting and thanking you for cleaning the mess that ms. kitty may have done.' He was like 'what mess? I saw no mess. All I saw is that the cat had some sort of plant and I put it somewhere.' I was 'like oooh ok.' Now I have to find the broken shot glass which is some where in the house. As I have no recollection of where I put the goddam thing in the first place!

Yep! I have found a new low in my life. For the past 40 min. I've been exploring the net and trying to find pieces of my ex and found his site! Yep! WTF, is wrong with me. I also spend, prior to the 40 min finding his dumb ass site, reading most of the emails that we were sending to each other after our break up. He was and I bet is still an A-hole! Married to his cousin, how discusting is that! Hell, thank god that ended after too many years of dealing with his ass. I think he thinks he hurt me and all that shit! When I had been cheating on him like too many times to count for like the most part of our relationship. Yes, I am proud fuck he put me through such shit biting times! not accepting me for who I was and me being stupid the first few years trying to clean myself as best I could to present the image he wanted. But in the end, I did what was bes for me! I told him like a year later that I had been cheating and you know he plainly said to me 'You would never do that to me! I would know in an instant!' Yeah right MF! Heee, there was one casualty, poor Mondo! Got himself mixed up once with the crazy MF. That was funny, them trying to find out where I was and filing a missing persons report! Damn, asses! Calling everyone and anyone to find the wear-abouts of moi! That was a good laugh! Heee... Memories...

Bloopy pointed out an error, but I'm quite sure that I remember reading that. I guess the story got changed:
Police kill at least 5 in New Orleans - Gunmen open fire on contractors; no workers reported killed
Updated: 7:47 p.m. ET Sept. 4, 2005
NEW ORLEANS - Police shot and killed at least five people Sunday after gunmen opened fire on a group of contractors traveling across a bridge on their way to make repairs, authorities said.
That is what has been posted on MSNBC, now. I am perplexed, the story on MSNBC, at 6:14pm on 9/4, was that contractors where shot at by the ARMY. Now the story (7:47pm on 9/4) is that the ARMY shot at gunmen. The articles are not the same? WTF?? I went to other sites trying to understand what's happening and came upon kurts blog which has the discrepancy of the article on his post with links of the 2 seperate reports on the same issue. Ok I was not going bonkers!

Finally the New Orleans Superdome has been evacuated! And the drainage of the city will take approximately 80 days! Katrina's toll may rival or even surpass that of the Sept. 11, 2001! Letters, faxes and emails have been sent! Mother Nature can create a disaster, but it is man who makes a catastrophe. Rev. Michael Bresciani from New Orleans wrote from his personal experience of Katrina, his website.

Another storm possible in Gulf Coast region - Hurricane Maria (jpg @ national hurricane center) becomes the 5th of the season. Apparently it doesn't pose a threat to land but to shipping interests.

Re-booked for 12pm on Thurs. (9/8).
On Tue. (9/6), the tech for the dishwasher is coming!
Wed. the estimator is coming to give us the estimate for the renovations of the water leakage.

Maybe everything will be done and we'll be happy to get ur furniture into the bedroom! Aaaahhh! Still waiting for that day when it will all come together.

Apparently, we have to get a construction engineer for the cracks on the wall. And a plumber for the leakeage that is happening inside the walls.

I truly am so sad for the people that have been left to their own devices! I was watching Primetime and it did seem like it was a matter of race! Why is it that there is no aide. Yes, they passed a bill for $10billion to be used on helping them. People are dying and it seems that government officials are not sending, fast enough, supplies and help. I keep wondering about the children! The heat that is unbearable! The seniors who cannot take care of themselves and cannot do what a young able person can! It tears my heart apart scene such termoil and devistation!

And here we go again... My pc is a crash magnet! What the hell!! I need to take it in again! I can't get my emails if there is any or do anything on my pc. I have 2/3 of my ibook money! So, a bit more and I say see you later to the pc world. The apple world is coming up and well it does cost a tiny bit more money but I will dish it out if it can get me a stable machine. I know it's this pc and all of the pcs but it's time for a change! I don't even want surf, its gotten that bad!
