Hola Blog thread,

Today was a really nice day. We are hosting a Tobots competition at our school, and people are so nice there and I brought my Wii to school, and we had a massive game party with other schools and it was incredibly fun.

Woo!,

My solution for boots is wearing really thick socks. If my foot can't slide around, I'm good. I've got two pairs - my snow boots which I've had for about 10 years and the boots I got a few months ago. The former are similar to work boots and after having them so long (but not really heavily worn), they're quite comfy and still have good traction and I can wear just about whatever socks with them. The newer ones are a bit looser, so I can only wear them with really thick socks or I get blisters on the sole of my foot near my big toe. Anything that keeps your foot from moving around in your shoe, thick socks or insoles, helps prevent blisters. If your socks are thinner, you could just wear two pairs I guess.

I personally found it really irritating when people would hang around my place of work all the time if they kept using the same shtick and jokes and kept asking 'so when are you hiring' all the time.

This isn't what I've been doing at all! I just chill there 'cause I've got plenty of time to kill, and it's not even inside. I'll just be seeing old friends I went to school with when I hang out outside the coffee shop. When I hang out with the people who work there, it's at their invitation only, and I never once mentioned having applied there. I tried to keep it hidden until my friend George spilled the beans. They're the ones who kept saying "Man it would be awesome if you wound up working with us" and I would just be like "Uhhhh I am not really down with this subject, sorry guys but thank you!" And as for the self-reflection thing, I've been super careful lately to not be stupid or an asshole or make shitty jokes. I learned a lot of important lessons in Sitka, all of them dealing with how much better I could do anything ever. And I watch around every corner to make sure I'm not fucking things up in the same old ways I always have.

Maybe I am just failing. Probably. I am goddamn clueless about pretty much everything.

So after long ass days of being 'on' training people Ive spent an extra 5ish hours at my old place cleaning since my piece of shit former roommate fucked me by not paying rent since Oct and technically he and I can be on the hook for rent til November. So after I moved out, I wanted to leave it clean to give the land lord a better impression of me. Part of my actually taking care of shit, which I am not known for but have been doing amazing at ever since I came back from cherry picking in BC for the summer.

I think our moot tomorrow is going to go really well - I just read through the opposing team's argument and it is based on a lot of optimistic legal fallacy and not much else.
Remember, if it feels like the lecturer/judge is giving you a really hard time then it means that you are doing well. It's when they ask really easy questions that you should be concerned.

Mooting is fun.

I think it went ok! They ripped us all to pieces but the respondents backed themselves into a corner whereas we held our ground reasonably well. We haven't had any results yet but I'm not ruling out the possibility of having won. I enjoyed it but I won't choose to do it again.

Fuckin best mood! After hell week doing training at work and spending an extra 4+ hours each evening cleaning my old house (horrible!) the last two days I am done. I dont have to clean, dont have to train dont have to nothin!

Girl I like and I are meeting up to pre-drink some wine before going to my BFFs DJ gig at a club called Vinyl tonight were I can get my freak on. All I hope is that I dont run out of gas too early as I am fucking wiped from this week. Def drinking Rockstar #3 to tide me over until dancing + booze energizes me.

Speaking of exercise (which we were doing a few pages ago anyway but I am behind in the times) it turns out then once you are no longer Fresh meat in derby they work your ass off.  Suicide drills, push up, sit ups, army crawling (all in skates mind you).  It's good for me but holy jesus it is HARD WORK.  I am sore for days after training now!

I am also sad because I can't ft into half my clothes now because I have got a muscular but and thighs now. WAH I MISS MY JEANS I USED TO BE ABLE TO COMFORTABLY WEEAAAR.  The worst loss is a dress I got in Bath with Roddy that I only wore once and now I can't get it over my giant (but toned) butt. WAH.  Oh and that awesome cherry wiggle dress I got from pinupgirlclothing?  Yeah, can't wear that now or it looks like I have a shelf where my butt should be.

Derby is fun and I love it but I do miss being slightly more petite.

There is a good chance that they will move my job interview on Varsity day  8-) And if I end up having to catch the bus an hour later, that's ok too. All that worrying for nothing!

Tonight's game didn't go well, we weren't playing our best and we lost. They were a better team but not that much better. I had a bit of a mope to my captain about not being able to play in defence (actually more of an advice-seeking about why she didn't want me to play D) and she was very nice and very tactful but basically I'm not good enough. It's so frustrating because I try so hard but I'm still not getting good. No matter how much they tell me that I'm improving really fast, I still watch other rookies, some of whom I know can't skate as well as I do, being put onto higher lines than I am and feel really jealous and miserable.

On the plus side I realised this evening with a bit of a jolt that it is the weekend tomorrow! It is ballet weekend; normal class tomorrow then five hour rehearsal on Sunday. I love ballet :)

I am not the kind of man who would buy Episode 1.



In more positive news, some days i really love my city. Today for example. Our city buses have little tvs where they show informational clips on shit about the city, current news, entertainment stuff and the like. Today I was riding the bus at peak hour when a 6 minute story about japanese experimental outfit Boredoms started showing, promoting their appearance at a concert in mexico city. For 6 minutes today all city buses played Boredoms and showed clips consisted mainly of Yamantaka eYe doing crazy stuff. It was immediately followed by a funny clip of a small child breakdancing.

I went to Ikea at 10am on my way home from the boy's - unshowered and tired and unmakeuped and unteethbrushed even , wearing all yesterday's clothes - and of course one my workmates and his family were there and stopped to chat.
Anyway now I have a new desk and chair! I am heck of excited.
Except I haven't sold my old desk and chair yet. And I have handful of blisters from screwdrivers and allen keys.

Perfectly normal people! In my case the ratio is reversed but there's nothing abnormal about being out of proportion.

There's this really handy "other thing" I'm going to write as a footnote to my abstract that I can probably explore these issues in. I think I'll call it my "dissertation."

Last night I went and saw British Sea Power (awesome show, very happy) and while I was waiting for them to come on I was reading a book because I'm not too proud to be Johnny No-friends at a gig. Anyway I was reading the Darwin Poems by Emily Ballou, and in particular I was reading a poem entitled "Is This Not Our House?", and by pure coincidence at exactly the same time the house music in the venue I was standing in switched to "Two Doves" by Dirty Projectors, and let me just say the cumulative effect was rather flooring. Here, see if you can reproduce the beautiful experience:

Cue music:

Read poem:

Quote
I found its empty rooms
not quite empty -
the loose ends of other lives,
the odd yellow curtains, the odd
blue walls, the dead dog in the garden
which I removed, but not without first
trying to ascertain
what had killed it.

The drawing room
where we'll draw
out the happy geese
of mutual speech, the circling
of my feet there on rainy days.
There's more light
at the back, more quiet
in this part of town
& I shall hear you better
than I can from here.

The black sparrows I watch in the garden,
the melting snow,
the mahogany piano,
the clanging pots & pans,
the drawers of shells I carefully carry
in by hand, the new white curtains,
the whistle of Euston Station,
the cook caught for 14 pounds
& 14 shillings with tea & sugar,
the ever black soot in the sky,
our neighbour, the Shakespearean clown, two doors down,
the rooms red & green as if painted by parrots,
& my specimen museum
in the front attic, creature-beasts
like private gargoyles crouching
above our church, the mews at the back
where coachmen sing.

Sometimes we'll eat walnut pickle & stewed pear
& sometimes muffin pudding.

Is this not our house
where you & I lie in our still
mysteriously perfect bodies
where you play your long fingers
over the chords of my skin.
Is this not the house
you will humanise me in?
Outside, the December wind
howls as if to knock us down.
Inside, we will huddle
the fire near, nights like this,
all the nights of our green green life.

Your buttered eggs on toast,
your broth, hot and brown, brought
to me on the sofa when I am sick,
your footsteps on the stairs,
a long chestnut strand of your hair
on my pillow, the drip
of your pen across
rough paper, your kiss,
your voice in the kitchen with the cook
you will sack, 'too cute', the way you look
as you scold me, while laughing.

And when on our first night we drew
the awful curtains in the windows
of our terraced house closed
I could only hear
your breath
shallow as I stepped closer, I couldn't
get close enough
quick enough.

I don't care
if the floors are hardened mud
or the windows without glass
or if our chairs are carved from the roughest wood
& the bed sags in the middle
as long as you are there with me my Em,
as long as you are there.

Ok so blog thread!

I have been celebrating all week because my girlfriend got a promotion at work. She is now the manager at the hair salon she works at in the city. It is super swanky and all her clients are bankers and lawyers and barristers and stuff. This is pretty big because getting promoted to manager at 21 is a pretty big deal and just goes to show how hard she works and how good at this stuff she is, I'm really really proud of her.

That said, I feel kind of bad because while her career really seems to be taking off, mine is kind of not doing anything. It's not that I'm jealous of her or anything, it's just that I feel like I should be doing well too so that she can be as proud of me as I am of her. Kind of like I'm letting her down by not doing anything. At the very least I know that she's sad that my job makes me so depressed all the time. I am looking for a different, not shitty job but it's difficult when nowhere is hiring. Hopefully I'll have some better luck in March when all the students have gone back to uni.
