Been awhile again

Hey all. I know its been a long ass time since I posted here, but really, life does really get in the way of doing much when you're busy. But will try to get back into it. I promise to promise to try :P

So whats goin on you ask? I know you are. Dont deny it.

Right now, I am sitting at work hoping the end of the day gets here faster then it is now. Im tired. I have been all day. Im currently on full time 00:00 - 08:00 hrs during the week. Now here is my issue. I JUST got put on this position of full time.. like 2 weeks ago... and I was happy as hell. It would be finally my first EVER full time position. It was gonna help us out in the long run with the wife workin full time herself. Things were finally gonna be goin right for us.

BANG! I get kicked in the nuts by work. The site that I'm working at decided to cut the weekend shift by 48 hours (1 guard at a time instead of 2). Usually this wouldn't affect me at all...BUT.... I have no seniority over really anyone here. Because those hours were taken away from some, they can and HAVE taken some of my hours.  Now Im sitting with 24 - MAYBE 32 hrs a week. I know its still better then the 16hrs I was gettin before, but its still not enough to live up to my end of moving out on our own (will get to this in a few). Looks like once I start to win, life tasers me in the ass and says Uh Uh UH!  Nice try but no luck.

So needless to say, Im a lil pissed and dont know what to do. Should I stick with it and suck up the fact that my hours are cut in almost half so I dont lose my benefits... or do I look for something else and say goodbye to doin security again... OR, do I find something on the side, like another job and do both of them to make up for what Im now missing. God I hate making decisions. I swear I got married so someone else would make my decisions for me.. and its not being fulfilled :P

Gah!

Dah well. Anyways, we have finally been able to get our own place here in Cambridge. No more living with the in laws. Dont get me wrong, I am completely grateful for what they have done in the way of letting us stay there, and for such a long time.. but we NEED to move. I miss having privacy. I miss knowing that any mess that happens is because one of us made it, not someone else.. and I really miss having a clean space to live in.

So we move in October 1st. Its such a relief, but at the same time, its stressful. As I said, my hours have been cut, which means the money will be less then we were expecting. Gotta figure out groceries, a truck to move with, extra money for people who are helping us (for like pizza....and beer if they want). Also gotta make sure we have all the necessities already set up... which includes everything from Cable and Net and such, to having all the needs for the wife's new dog (again, speak about that in a moment). I know Ill be MUCH better once we are in and finally settled, but gettin to that point is gonna be the rough part of it all.

I know it sounds like Im whinning, and/or bitching, but this is my blog. Deal with it :D

So, as I mentioned, the loving wife has set her sights on a dog. Not just any dog.. .a pure bred english bulldog. Yea I know. Me and animals usually dont mix. And really, this will probably be no different. I told her long ago that I didnt wanna own a dog. Soooooooo apparently we own a dog now. Funny how that works.

Her name is Leudie... which stands for Little Expensive Ugly Doggie. Works well I think. We dont get her til I think Sept. 15th at the latest, but the deposit has already been given, so she will be ours. Oh yes, she will be ours.....

Sorry, Waynes World flashback!

Im back. But, yea, on top of the moving and work stress, here comes this $*insert outrageous amount here* dog. You heard me. The thing is, as much as I argue about having this thing, I'm sure its sweet and I know it'll make everyday for the wife that much brighter with Leudie around. I'm just personally not a dog person.  People will surely see me cuddled up with a dog now and then, but it doesnt happen often. I dunno. Gonna be interesting to say the least.

Everything else seems to be okay I guess. Had a scare with the wife recently, but shes doing okay now. Had to have emergency surgery to fix something. Not gonna go into details because its not my place to say anything... but she had me worried. Dr told us that if we hadnt of caught it, she could have died. That doesnt sit too well, for either of us. But, as I said, shes doing good now, thank the gods :)

Anyways, I guess that's about it for now. Hoping to keep up with this more, but we will see.

I will leave you with a new Top 10 List to ponder over. This time, its my Top 10 Favorite Country Songs. You can love them or hate them. You may not consider a couple of these even as country, but screw you. Its my list bitches! Hehehehe.

10) Lady Antebellum - Need You Now
09) Willie Nelson - Pretty Paper
08) Johnny Cash - Boy Named Sue
07) Reba McEntire - She Thinks His Name Was John
06) Blake Shelton - Austin
05) Garth Brooks - The Dance
04) Tanya Tucker - Two Sparrows In A Hurricane
03) Diamond Rio - Stuff
02) Farmers Daughter - Borderline Angel
01) John Berry - Your Love Amazes Me

I change it up here and there, but those are my personal favorites. Im sure there are MANY honorable mentions that need to be listed, but Im not THAT bored :P

Next time, I very well may do my personal favorite Top 10 Canadian Artists, just to see the reaction I get.

Anyways, I will leave it at that for now. If you want, comment all you want. I can be a comment whore at times. But hey, Im not one to pressure ya... *cough*DO IT*cough*

Until next time, Fuck you Red Green, Ill keep my stick in the air and wave it like I just dont care. SUCK THAT!

Gah! Random update.

Yea yea, I know. Its been awhile since Ive written something here, but seriously, I think Im allowed to blog when I feel it time :D

Well, right now Im sitting in a very uncomfortable chair blogging from work. Im on a 12hr midnight to noon shift. How in the hell did I end up pulling something like this off? Yea I dunno either. After working at NCR in Waterloo for a few months on weekends, I was suppose to have weekends off once I left there. Well low and behold as soon as I switch to this place (sorry I cant reveal where I am working right now, incase the powers that be are watching), I get stuck on a couple weekend shifts as well as my couple days during the week. Yaay for money, but booooo for lack of sleep and a social life. I know Im not on these shifts much, but when I am, bloody hell is it ever boring. As it is, Im using the work computer to write this. Shhhhh :P

Oh, Ive also recently got the 2nd part of my carpal tunnel surgery done. My left hand is now all bandaged up and hurting like a bitch. Even the perks Ive been taking for the pain hasnt been helping lately. Luckily the bandage should come off this coming Monday (it being Saturday at 02:35). I just want the use of both my hands again. The right hand is still a little sensitive to weight from the last surgery, but Ive basically lost all the numbness I had prior to the surgery.  Thats always a bonus. Means I should be able to get sleep more now. Thats a happy ME! *dances randomly*.

Just to give you a brief weather update for Kitchener.............HOLY CHRIST ITS WINDY! *ducks flying trashcan*.

OK back.  Not a whole lot has been happening lately other then that. The wife and I have been tryin to catch up on debts and such now that Im workin more often then like once a week with MUCHmusic. Its almost like I have a steady paycheque coming in now. None of this, if I get a dance, I may have enough money to get a couple groceries or something. Now dont get me wrong. I still dont get huse amounts of money for what Im doing, but its better then what I was making before. And hey, who knows, if I actually get my weekends back, I may be able to add a couple of dances to my work list here and there when I want some extra money.  I wouldnt mind being able to work 40hrs a week with this security company, but right now I have no seniority over ANYONE in the company. Apparently Im the newbie.  If I stick with this long enough I know Ill get more work. They have got me trained to the tits right now. After the 11th of March, Ill have almost every first aid certification available... as well, I now have my CGSB (gov't training) training done so Ill be able to work in most gov't facilities if need be. (gov't usually equals more pay :D). Dah well. I guess I just need to keep truckin along.

OOOOHHHH! My loving wife got us tickets to go see John Pinette do his standup in April. This is gonna be a blast.  That man is one funny fat guy  :).  Ive grown up watching him over the years on stuff like Comedy Central and Just For Laughs and such.  I know there is a good chance Im going to piss myself laughing.  So will Jenn LoL. I hope Im able to get an autograph and/or a picture done with him. If I do, it will so be placed on Facebook, Twitter and possibly here for you all to envy me for :D heheheh.

Yaaay, 3 hours of this shift done. Only 9 more to go. *headdesk*

Im gonna be starting my writing up again shortly. I kinda have like 4 stories on the go that Id like to actually finish. Im tempted to post them here on my blog once I get them done, but not sure yet. They may not be something people wanna read. Who knows, only time will tell. I miss writing a lot. I use to do it all the time when it came to my online wrestling e-fed I was in.  Unfortunately I lost interest and willpower to keep writing when it was open. Now its closed its doors and my creative juices are starting to flow again. Unfortunately now a little too much. I cant seem to get one finished before another pops into my head. Im sure Ill figure something out and finally get them finished some day. Just probably not anytime soon.  Ill try to keep you all posted on how they are coming along.

On the health front, other than being quite sick off and on recently, I am now a part of the World Gym family. Jenn and I got me signed up not that long ago. Unfortunately do to the recent surgery, I havent been able to get in and do anything yet. Im hoping once the hand heals some, Ill be able to get in there and start doing some actual working out. Ive been losing weight a little here and a little there. I stopped drinking pop all together. Right now its either only water, or a bit of ice tea here and there. And I try to have at least one glass of milk a day.  Im also TRYING to eat healthier but I still have problems with it. I can honestly say, I like food too much, and Im pretty set in my ways when it comes to what I eat, but I AM trying.  Im hoping the gym membership will help with this weight issue.

Anyways, Ive probably rambled on incessantly for too long now. I will update again when Im able. Cheers.

Happenings.. (pre-written)

Oh lord. This is what happens when I get bored at work. I start blogging with no internet access. So at the time of this post, Im sitting in a secuirty guard room bored as shit. Please bare with me.

So today is day 2 of my new job. The second day is just as boring as the first, maybe more so. Yesterday by now we had at least 5 or 6 cars on site, meaning there was at least 5 or 6 people here. Today as of now (9:00am), there is 4 cars, and one is mine. Ive done already all the stuff Im suppose to do for the day. Im gonna have to make some stuff up for myself to do today. Random patrols, random wondering around aimlessly learning the building from top to bottom. That should at least take up an hour. *facepalm*

I so cant wait for the day to end.  Im feeling like shit something fierce. I have a really bad cough. So bad, that I swear my chest is about to explode. A little stuffed up as well, but its more the cough that hurts the most. Took 2 Nyquil last night to help me at least sleep. It kinda helped. I only woke up once coughing. Better then the night before. But because of powerful  it was on my body, I almost slept in too long. My alarm for work was set for 6am. I hit the alarm and meant to get up. I woke up again at like 6:50am.  A lot later then I wanted to. Still bloody tired. If I had a way to pass out here, Id soooo do it right now.  Shush! Lol. At least I have a couple friends awake at this time of day. I can chit-chat with them til they get busy.

Well, Jenn finally had her surgery on Friday. It was a long time coming. Im so happy for her that she finally got what she has been waiting for for so long. Still bothers me but it wasn’t my choice at all. I support her, don’t get me wrong, but I just wish she didn’t have to go through surgery to try to get healthier.  It was weird seeing her in that hospital bed all hooked up to wires and oxygen and such.  It was even weirder watching her yesterday after work barely eating anything. From what I remember, she had maybe 3 spoons of chicken broth, and maybe a single spoonful of Jell-o and she was full. Id never be able to handle only eating that much and being full. For me, that would be a waste of my cooking talent :P.  I guess its something I have to get use to. Not like we could take it back now, even if she wanted to. I just hope this helps her get healthier. I know she wants to start a family soon. Unfortunately soon is now extended to about at least 2 years from now. Im gonna be an old fart by the time I have kids. Lol.

So my side project, “Pype Dreamz Productions” is getting much bigger then I expected. For all of you who don’t know, Im putting together a classy/tasteful nude calendar. Its just a little something Ive been wanting to get off the ground for a couple years, but its finally coming to life. I wasn’t expecting to get the minimum of 6 girls to pose for it, but now Im sitting with like 15 or more girls. Gives me a full 12 month calendar, and backups incase they are needed.  Im so happy this is coming together so nicely. Still so much work needing to get done, but once its all over and done with, Im sure Ill feel that sense of accomplishment that Ive been longing for.

The calendar itself isnt for sale this time around. Its only a product for me, my models and the photographers.  Obviously non profit since I am broke and cant afford to pay the models. Next year however, if this goes over really well, Ive been asked that if we sell the calendar, that the proceeds from its sales go to a charity of some sort. Im really liking that idea.  Not only do I get to make something that helps my models express themselves how they want, but it will help a charity that will be voted on by the members of the group. I think it’s a great idea personally.  Just gonna wait to see how well the first “issue” goes first before I think about doin a second.  Any of you out there who may be interested in being a part of this project, please feel free to contact me either via on here, or my MSN. Message me at midnight_magick@hotmail.com or email me at pypedreamzpro@hotmail.com

Christmas time is slowly approaching.  I hate being broke at this time of year.  I don’t even have enough money to get my entire family gifts like I do every year. Hell, if things keep goin the way they are, I wont even be able to afford to get Jenn anything. That breaks my heart for a few reasons. One, because I know she’s already spent quite a bit on me.  She says not to worry about getting her anything, but Im not that type of guy. That’s the first thing Im gonna worry about.  I want her to enjoy her Christmas.  Two, because Im usually the one that when he agrees mutually to get nothing for his significant other with that person, that will go and buy something anyways.. just to be a little shithead. :P. Unfortunately this year, it looks like the tables are being turned on me L. Dah well. I guess Ill figure something out. Or at least try to.

So, right now Im cursing a friend of mine. She asked for a White Christmas.  I told her it would snow, but I didn’t want it quite yet.  All I can say is, if you are reading this Iceis Jericho, FUCK YOU! You got your wish. I dunno if this amount will stay or not, but there was enough out there today to watch people spinning out on the highway as I passed them.  I hate snow. Now Ill have to be outside even earlier so I can wipe my car off to head to work.  That annoys me greatly.  I like my sleep when Im able to get it. I don’t wanna have to get up earlier now just to wipe and scrape my car.  Mother Nature can be a real bitch at times I tell ya.

Speaking of Christmas, I thought Id do another list for you all, whether you like it or not.  First off, here are my Top 5 Favorite Christmas movies of all time.

1)      White Christmas

2)      Santa Clause Is Coming To Town

3)      Shrek The Halls

4)      National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation

5)      How The Grinch Stole Christmas (Original)

In that order too.  I love White Christmas. Have ever since I first watched it. I love Bing Crosby’s voice and Danny Kaye’s antics.  If you havent had a chance to watch it this year, find a way. If you have never seen it, SHAME ON YOU! Fatman says DOOOO IIIIIT! 

Here is my next list.  Personally its my Top 10 Christmas songs of all time.             

1)      Bing Crosby - White Christmas

2)      Burl Ives - Silver & Gold

3)      Elvis Presley - Blue Christmas

4)      Weird Al Yankovic - Christmas At Ground Zero

5)      Thurl Ravenscroft - You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch

6)      Jose Feliciano - Feliz Navidad

7)      Alvin & The Chipmunks - The Christmas Song

8)      Nat King Cole - Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire

9)      Bing Crosby & David Bowie - Little Drummer Boy/Peace On Earth

10)   Elvis Presley - Silver Bells

I know this is a pretty generic list, but I cant help what I like. If you don’t agree with this list, fuck you, make your own :P.  If you havent heard one or any of these greats, I urge you to do so.

Well, I guess I should actually do some work here, as much as I don’t want to.  May do one of my many random patrols of the day just to get the blood flowing.  Will try to blog again before Christmas, but if not, everyone who reads this, have a Happy Holiday season. Cheers.

Ah crap.

Well, as some of you may know, I have been lacking in the job department as of late. Sure Ive been working with MUCHmusic, but Im not making enough to survive, let alone pay for much in the way of bills. I needed something a lil more stable; a lil more worth the money for the amount of work being done.

Well, today (well I guess yesterday now) I passed my security exam with an 84%. Passing was 62%. So, well, I guess I did what I needed to. Better then gettin by by the skin of my teeth. So all I gotta do now is get the license form filled out, paid for and sent away, and in about 3 weeks or so Ill once again be a licensed guard.

As much as I am lookin forward to workin a lil more steadily, Im not lookin forward to it just as much. Ive done security work a few times before, with at least 2 other companies in the past.  I wont lie, some of the time, it was fun, and well worth the time.. but other times, I probably could have scraped my eyeballs out with my name tag or something.

Im sure everything will work out in the end, but the boredom and constant patrols did a number on my feet and my psyche. If I had of worked there much longer, Im sure I woulda lost my mind... YES MORESO THEN NOW... SHUT UP YOU! lol

I wish I could find something in the music field that Id like and that would pay decently.. but seriously, how many people like their jobs? If you said yes, you are either in denial or lying through your teeth, or for those friends farther south of the canadian border, through your tooth.(ducks flying beer cans)

Until then, Ill sit back, do my job as best as I can, and randomly stab myself in the forehead with a frozen mackerel to ease the insanity of silence.

I really wish I had cookies right now. Shut up! Im craving sugar and yummy yummy goodness... which hopefully isnt full of metal.. boourns lol.

Dah well. Bed time.. maybe breakfast in the morning? Morning? ya right :D
