How I waste Money
13 years ago
And this weeks adventure is......
Waiting for a Disk Defragment to finish up, and I said I'd do some writing sometimes soon, So I figured I'd stack the two events and write while defragging. Do you smell that? its the smell of rearranging my Hard drive. Try not to step in any loose piles of text documents, or pictures of monocles.
Exciting News! I went to Toronto. For those of you that are oblivious Americans, Toronto is the Canadian Equivalent of new york. Not the capital, but loaded with way more people than it deserves. Its expensive here. I want to go back to my hell-hole of a backwater town now, at least I could cross the streets in relative safety. Also it turns out I don't respond well to advertisement on all sides, shapes, colours, and lighting. Funny thing is that my mind tries to track everything (spatially), but I can't, so I get overwhelmed, zone out and then come back to a "what the hell am I doing here again?" Also Sirens. Every 5 minutes. constantly. except for at like 7 am, early morning isn't very big as crime time.
Why am I here again? I showed up for a card game tournament. Not the greatest reason, I know, But I like strategy, and nothing is more strategic than trying to outwit everyone. Unless you take it seriously, it is hard. all the good players have OCD for it, and have a huge backlog of cards to build from. Everyone at this tourney has like 5 spare decks. I just finished one, and half of a second one. I would describe them, but how many people would get it? Heres some hints though: Chaos Dragon and MechaNinja.
Anyways, Toronto is expensive. This outing has cost me slightly less than 200$ total. Which is a lot to me. especially when I don;t have a job. whoops. oh well, I'm in my impulsive young adult years, the last ones where I can make a mistake in safety. That tourney though? I lost, not due to lack of skill or cards (sealed pack tourney!), but because of dumb luck. screw relying on luck.
Allright, we're past the wall of text now, onto point form iterations of my thoughts.
>Review week of school, Then exams, then a graduation ceremony, and then FREEDOM ABSOLUTE (notice those capitals) in which I move out and do something useful with my life
>> Or at least that was the plan, Then I recieved word that my parental units want me to hang around and "help out" (read:contribute wealth)
>>>Now I don't know how you know about about my backwater town, but there is very limited work prospects. I don't evven want to come up with a good metaphor, thats how bad it is. Soooooo Yeah, I dunno how thats going to work out.
>I keep attracting homosexuals. This is becoming frequently common, and alarming. Maybe I should just give it up and try being gay....lololololollol.... no. I kid. Its not my thing, nothing wrong with it, but I just don't see it being me.
>Toronto has more Construction Sites than Hobos; and everything you've heard about the unemployment crisis here is true. I've seen enough orange signs to....uhhhhh...make the red and yellow crayons in a box get jealous from disuse. 3am sucks for metaphors
>I need a job. That would be cool.
>>Screw that, I need some time, theres a lot of things I've been meaning to do. Like make a fursuit. Thats where things get tricky actually; I habitually claim I'm not a furry, Which I believe, But I do find suit wearing fun. But I also like making people think...the "what the hell was that?" kind of thinking....So I dunno, classify me as you want I suppose
>I still have the artistic Talent of a mule on Ritalin. thats really all there is to it. Sorry. One of things I want time for.
>Delightful conversations as to my role in life, ad if people value me blah blah blah you don't care. I'm just trying to figure out why people keep me around.
>Goddamn Disk Defrag is taking forever.
>My laptop can't run very much anymore. This makes me sad. Also its slowing down, might be time for a reformat or a rebuild
>Jager + Orange juice is pretty sweet
>Female russian accents aren't as sexy as I was hoping. Maybe I just found a bad russian though.
>That card battling game? I got most of the cards I could ever want this weekend for chaos dragon. theres still a couple more, but damn, I'm pretty satisfied. Time to sell everything else ever.
>There is a subway restaurant on every street in toronto. This is great until you get sick of subway. Luckily this hasn't happened yet.
>Lord of D sucks. That is all (its a card)
Goin; on a train tomrrow! choo chooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
