So we got the TV but returned it to Sony why? Wel, cuz they were charging a mint. We went to the Brick and got the same TV but with all its accesories for almost the same price. So, I say why not save a few bucks were we can!

I am happy now. The wall mount is on back order. It will take 2-3wks... Hopefully not!

I been reading my blog comments. And have gotten back at some but not all.. Sorry about that... I left a gigantic one at Bum. Hopefully, he doesn't think I'm a nut case! His b-day was yesterday! Happy Birthday, once again!!!

Been reading his blog for the past 45 min. I usually read from the bigining, I say usually cuz if it catches my eyes. Like all that I have on my right side, have... He is going there...

My bro hasn't gotten back to me or my mother. I am trying to call him just about now! As I write this... Hopefully, he's in but the freaken' phone isn't being picked up... Picked up... Laters...

On Tuesday was my 3rd class and didn't go felt a bit under the weather and was sort of lazy. So, decided to remain home. Also, Nori slept over and we stayed up a little late.

Went bowling on Sunday with B-G, it was so much fun! Also went bowling on Tuesday with B-G and Nori it was fun... Took Nori to Fairview and B-G went to his meeting while Nori and I went around the mall... It was really nice weather 3C... Sweet! Went to Best Buy but they didn't have the TV that we wanted... Got an Action Replay for my NGC... I am thinking if I should get an X-box 360 or wait for PS3? Aaaahhh!

My bro is ok now, he's in a program. Been trying to call him all week and I cannot get through. It's so annoying not to be able to talk to him and see how he is... Frustrated!!!!!!!

I send out like 30 emails out of those about 3 have come backed, I guess people are busy or don't care to send back a reply, no problems on that matter... heee... I guess no more 30 emails sending again... W - E!

Right now I find my self totally worried about my brother... My mother got a call yesterday night about him. He's in the hospital due to excess drinking. He has been in a coma because vomit when down to his lungs. Someone needs to go and apparently is going to be me. As I am the only one presently with out work. I will have to email my Japanese teacher about the events that have unfolded this past evening. I am truly sad.

Yes, my brother and I had a spat and parted ways not speaking but all in all he's my baby bro and I love him with all my heart! Set stupidity aside and will see what's up with him. Apparently, this is not the first time he has gotten this intoxicated. This is the 3rd time and this time was almost deadly. My mon and I don't know what is going on with him. The Sgt. asked my mother what's going on with him, but he didn't act strange around us, except he was really mean too me which I hadn't really experienced it before. I guess he's very upset about some thing and no one seems to be able to get it out of him.

Tomorrow my mom will call to see, more info. and possibly get my butt to Japan. Hopefully, I don't have to but you never know.

The weekend is turning out to be pretty down!

For the pass few days, alls been sort of ok. Besides the Lexus getting 2 flat tires and not having a car from Friday to Monday... Which was a hastle for B-G as he had to work and had to take taxies due to working overnights... He did however use the metro a few times... To save some dough!

Then on Tuesday night the freaken dishwasher went on the fritzzz... It was like not working... I touched the console and nothing happened... Turned on the water and open the dishwasher and closed it up again... And nothing, got frustrated and left it there for about an hour. Came back and there was a 'Delay' of 23H showing on the display... I tried to cancel it and nothing. I got so frustrated I left it there for another 1-2 hrs... Came back and nothing was displaying, then I tried to start it up again. Nothing, I felt it for about a min. and it started on its own. Freaky! The dishes were done.
Then yesterday night B-G put in the dishes and started it up, but when he went to check to when it was done. All the freakin lights were going bonkers on the console and display a big "ER" with all the lights were flashing! I cannot believe this crap is happening again!!!

So, I called Frigidaire, and explain the situation... They asked me to call Packet and ?? for a technician to come and for them to fax the report once is done. The appointment is made for the 23rd of January. The day of the Election. No problem!!! I had to tell them to fax the report once is done! As they had not done that when the freaken machine was replaced!

This bites!!!!

So, on the other hand I got SAJ postcard. B-G is truly impress on the postcard she send! I told him that she did it and he truly loved it!

To OCM I send hima truly long email on the 11th... I had so much to bla... But still have... Like how is Sue-Sue the Dog and all the critters... I also was thinking of JC Kitty... He's once again given up on the blogging thing, like I have... Even though I just spend a bundle on my site! I still keep it! Whatever, it's just money right! Not, let not B-G read this he'll go bonkers reading this!

I been listening to CHUB CREEK podcast freaken funny!! DAMN!!! I will be emailing them to get the rest of the 21 shows they have archived... Also, I wish to get a song that was dedicated to one of the podcasters "DAVE" by GARY his bestest friend since the age of 10, if I'm not mistaken... They are a couple of Canadian... Talking, singing and just having a good old time on their podcast!!! I heard it through the grape vine OTAKU GEN. podcast!

I cannot believe it Twinkie has gotten married and it was fast. He and his girl had been together 7 yrs. I am truly happy for them. But I been a lazy ass on the emailing them and congratulating them.

My mom's boyfriends father passed away and had to got to Floriday for the funeral! He had to wait like 5yrs for the fog to lift at DCA... But he made it ok... Called him to tell him how sorry we were of his father passing... His dad was 84yrs old and had been fighting cancer. Now he can rest in peace...

Damn, I nearly forgot there was another matter that really is cheesing me off!!!! Ok, so when we went to VA we send 2 boxes on the 27th of Dec. here... The freaken boxes hadnt appear by yesterday... Way freaken late, right! I decided to call the US postal service but the only thing they could tell me is that the boxes had left the US the 31st of Dec. The gentleman was kind enough to maybe inquire with the Canadian postal service or Customs. Maybe it was being held up. We had been thinking that the past few days due to the DDR pads and the 4 boxes of cereal, yes cereal! We do not have trix, coco pebbles, fruity pebbles or kix here in Quebec... Anyways getting back to the topic at hand. So, I called the Canadian postal service and the lady was like 'yes we received the bins where your packages were in on the 6th of Jan. and then they went to the depot where they were shipped out to Fairmont post office on the 9th of Jan.' I was like 'What happended to the coming by my house and trying to deliver it on the 9th and then leaving the notice?' She simple said 'I dont know... But I'll give you the notice # so you can pick up your packages.' I was like 'Ok, fine.'

Called B-G and told him the story and he went to get the packages... Meanwhile, I got into my head to call the post office once agian and make a formal complain on this... We ahd already 2 reference # on different problems that we are constantly having with the post offfice. Like getting our mail deliver to other condos and getting other peoples mail. Getting our magazines dirty, wet/dried and opened mail at times... We have now even open a PO Box for that and for net purposes...

Also, on Tuesday we took Nori to Costco, which he found to be truly huge... Damn, warehouse!! I wanted to take him to Laval shopping center but the freaken stores close at 6pm and when he called it was already 4:10pm... Not enough time to go there, due to traffic! So, Costco as its open til 9pm we went there... We got the yummiest, juices ever: Mango and Guava Nectar! YUM!!!

So anyways, getting back to my DDR, I want to get the 1st one, which Twinkie 'Jackie' said is one of the best! I also have to thank him for he is the one that suggested the dude to whom I bought the DDR pads... So far it works pretty damn fine! It's a bit hard and I feel a bit awkward doing it! But eventually I'll get the hang of it!

Bought a few anime... I need to get GIRLSブラボー #2... And I want to get Fruit Baskets, even though I am still reading the manga! I want the anime!

I been cooking a bit but also we had Asean Garden on Tue. with Nori! It was good but we had to doggie bag some of the stuff. And had it on Wed. for supper... It was delish! Nori was over too as Wed. is our tutorial day! I lend him a 3-4 DVD which were still in their packages...

I start my course finally on Tues... YEAH!!! But the class and the teacher are still to be decided upon! Arrrggg... and also found out that the course will be held in the Faubourg building! Yes, that means downtown baby!

Well, gots to go and make my rounds and listen to more CHUB CREEK! Just freaken funny!!!

This year was spend in front of the TV watching channels MMM, Fox, TVA and CTV and playing Katamari Damacy and We Love

We had Amir (Lebanese food) for New Years Day [Jan 1, 2006]... B-G got ready for work at 11:30pm he left! My cell is dead, need to charge it.

My Mom's b-day is today. She woke me up to set a new message for her salon...

B-G is still at work and will be going to work once again at 5pm...

The kitties have been active, Carly is presently on my lap thinking she'll b getting some treats... Trying to play with the pens on the desk and preventing me from typing... She is such a sl@#! She would sell her soul for treats and food! Slept at around 6:30am. Boring day!!

Still have to give my X-Mas gifts to Emily and her family! I called her on Sunday to wish her and her family a Happy New Year.

My camera is acting funny!! Aaahh!!

B-G's present is still not here as some of the free stuff that comes with it, is still out of stock!!

What can I say about the Holidays but hopefully next year will be better!
