Yet another weird flash: http://www.flubu.com/flash/bonjour.html

Not for the epileptics among us. Watch it to the end, but be warned it gets a bit not-safe-for-work at the end.

Stupid mail server at work… Been getting mail in a desynched manner. Highly annoying.

Shocking news! Read here for more: http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html

Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) are:

• Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
• Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
• Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
• DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
• Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
• Contributes to soil erosion.
• Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
• Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
• Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
• Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
• Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere.
• Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

Spent the day cooking today. I invited my sis for dinner, and we had roast beast in a red wine gravy, with mashed potatoes, peppery carrots and corn. Hmmmm, that was good! The apartment smelled SO good while the gravy was reducing. My roommate came back from dinner with friends and commented on the aroma in the apartment :) I also love the incense I bought from Melange Magique. It smells really nice, and isn't too obtrusive.

Someone came over to visit the apartment today. There's some decent potential there; I hope things pan out.

Tired now, going to bed.

Why is it that people call me to rent my apartment, and are all disappointed when I tell them that no, the rent isn't 570$, it's actually 1140$ and that I want roommates because the ad is in the TO SHARE section?

gahh! people are dumb, it makes my brain hurt.

From reading your friendly neighborhood propaganda source:

U.S. prepares Afghanistan offensive: Operation Mountain Storm intensifies hunt for bin Laden

WASHINGTON (CNN) — The next round of military operations in Afghanistan will be named “Operation Mountain Storm,” U.S. defense officials said Friday. Officials have said that ground troops and aircraft are expected to move into Afghanistan's southeastern border region near Pakistan in the days and weeks ahead to conduct operations against Taliban and al Qaeda remnants believed to be operating there.

Why do I see big red bells ringing at this, especially since it's an election year in the US and dubya is getting worried that his approval rating is slipping?

*yawn*

It's the little things in life. A large pot of pasta sauce simmering away on the stove, some amber incense burning in the background, and some nice music playing in the background. Wish everyday could be like this…

Had a beer with eniran last night. We wondered why Hurleys was so packed, then we realized it was the weekend before St-Paddies. I almost died, choking on my beer, when she dropped her lighter in her pint of guiness. After that, we went to her mom's place on the south shore to check on the dogs and the one-eyed cat, where I proceeded to cook a damn good batch chicken carbonara linguine (and that's quite a feet, considering that her mom's stove is a POS :P) She dropped me off home, and I fell like a brick.

Slow day today. Went to help a friend move some furniture for his apartment this morning. Did my groceries (hence the pot of pasta sauce) and a mountain of dishes so the apartment can look presentable for potential roommates. There's a guy that's coming tomorrow, so that's a start. .

Don't know what I'll do tonight; I'm supposed to give Michel a call later.

These quotes, taken in context, are perfectly normal. That's the weird part, cause looking at them right now, they're completely fucked up

Quotes of the day:

– Yay, I get to see you down under †.
– I'd never dream of keeping your wetty ‡.

† Said to eniran who was talking about her pictures from her trip to Australia.
‡ Said to Hyde_grrl, about the fact that my mom just made her a red wetty stupid creature and that my mom would ship it to me so I could give it to her.

I finally put an ad in the Voir and the Hour to look for a roommate. It's a good deal (570$ to share a 6 1/2 with all the utilities, washer-dryer, cable and high-speed internet), and I hope I can finally put this issue to rest before the end of the month, when I have to give the renewal papers to my landlord.
