For Simplicity Sake
(Feist - Mushaboom (Postal Service Rmx))

So after a 5 hr nap in the evening, I'm now up at this ungodly hour taking care of things I should've taken care of when I decided to slumber. What's lovely about this time of night is that no one's up and there are very few distractions. So I've managed to do my laundry, download some pictures from my camera, take care of some bills and now I'm blogging. I don't really have much to say these days. It seems lately, I've been more into living life than writing about it. I guess that's a good thing, no? Anyhow, here are some random events that have made me smile, laugh, almost cry (because boys don't cry), pull my hair out, etc.

- I got the plague/cold and spent 3 days at home 2 weeks ago.
- My boss resigned due to overwhelming stress.
- The company server and WAN went down all on the same week that I had a cold.
- My other company launched the alpha version of our website, stay tuned for the link!
- I got a modded xbox from friends for my bday and I've been playing Karaoke Revolution and Topspin non-stop. A-ha's Take On Me has never been butchered so many times and I sing a great rendition of My Immortal by Evanescence.
- I am now convinced that the concept of "The One" is far too convenient to be true.
- The white orchids I got Sonia's parents last year are still alive and flowering like Barry Bonds juiced them.
- I spent last week in St.Paul, MN doing some company training. Hotels feel so empty even though they seem to be little flourishing cities all on their own.
- Rhianna's sample of Tainted Love makes me want to dance, and I normally hate when artists sample classic tunes.
- Saw the Strokes again and they still are one of the best live performing bands out there.
- I hear Emily Haines has a solo album coming out soon. She might be the coolest rocker chic alive. If you haven't heard any of her music, download a few Metric songs.
- Fishing season and vacation season is coming up. I'm headed to Vancouver for 10 days at the end of June with Sonia and headed north to the cottage for a week in mid-July.
- My little cousins from California are coming to visit in July for a month. They are adorable.
- If you haven't seen Shakespeare in the Park, I'd highly recommend it. Last year they performed Much Ado About Nothing. This year they're showing Comedy of Errors. This will be the 3rd year Sonia and I have gone.
- Happy 3 year anniversary Sonia!
