Attention all stupid people (you know who you are) apparently you have decided to elect, anoint, delegate, or whatever it is you do, a new leader. I am not even sure if you know who she is, so I will take it upon myself to let you know about her.
I was shopping on the weekend at Sears, finishing my Christmas purchases and I happened to ask the cashier how the person had to return their present if it didn't fit (no other hits to people who might be getting presents from me). I told them I would be away over the holidays and was going back to Vancouver, just so I was clear and their wouldn't be any problems. She said they could return anywhere.
Sorry I just had to go rescue Donna. There was some serious shrieking, like the kind you would make if you were mugged, and then she ran on the coach. Turns out it was some kind of creepy centipede thing. She almost crapped her pants... her tummy hurts right now.
Anyway, the cashier beside her said i had 90 days to return/exchange it. This is good. Then she asks if it is a Christmas gift,I say yes, and then she says "Well then they only have until January 14th to return it." Now I know that at times I am not the most rational person in the world, but what kind of sense does that make? So I get in a little argument with her:
Mike - "Well then its not a Christmas present."
Stupid Cashier - "You just said it was."
Mike - "It's not. I am going to give it to him/her (no hints!!) before Christmas so it is not technically a Christmas present."
Stupid Cashier - "Fine do whatever you want, you still have until the 14th."
Mike - "I will. Don't you worry."
I wanted to return them right then and then get in line and buy them again. Then ask her the same question again. Petty yes, but the response from her would have been fantastic. I could have gotten the purchase for free when she attacked me.
Anyway, you know I hate incompetence. This was a prime example. Happy Holidays.

Wooohooo!!! Back on the air!!!
Hey Everybody!! So its been 2 months since my last confession, er, post. Many things have happened, some of which actually did affect my ability to use the Internet and keep you all posted on how Donna and I are doing. I am probably going to forget a whole bunch of things, but I will try and remember the most important, interesting, funny, and useless things. I am not actually sure where to begin, so here it is, chronologically.
Thanksgiving.
Donna knew that I was feeling a little crumby at my lack of work, so she said she was going to make me Thanksgiving Dinner. I got really excited. We were going to have people over. Donna was going to make turkey and all the trimmings. I was going to eat much, much more than was good for me. Then we found out that Jason and Flora were going to the states for the weekend and needed someone to dog sit for them. Sounded like fun and we could dirty their kitchen instead of ours. Plus we could do a bit of laundry since the washers and dyers at our place were broken. Then we also found out that Donna's friend Tanya was coming up for Sunday morning brunch. Needless to say this put a damper on our turkey dinner plans. Oh well, not a big deal, I will just have to consume more turkey at Christmas.
I made the Wife-Saver Breakfast for the first time when Tanya and Wilson (her fiance) came for brunch,and despite a few missteps, it turned out really well. The dog sitting was not as successful. Lai-Fu, Jason and Flora's Sheba Inu, is a handful. Let's just say that Donna is thinking that a cat might be better for us. It ate her scarf, several of our socks (we stayed the weekend at their place) and her brand-new shoe's (which she had just bought with birthday money from her Mom and had only worn once).
And I did get poultry for Thanksgiving Dinner. I had a delicious 1/4 chicken dinner at Swiss Chalet. I kid you not... I actually cried a little bit inside afterwards.
Camping.
One of the attendings Donna works with was nice enough to invite us up to his property for some camping one October weekend. Donna wasn't sure she wanted to go as it was getting late in the season, nights were getting a little cold, and she was the only female going. I talked her into it, since it was the last chance to get away for the weekend for awhile. It was a little cold, but it was totally worth it.
We had a great time. 4 other Dr.'s came up at various times for various lengths of time, so there was always company around. Lots of very marginally healthy food and drink as well. Turns out Dan's wife Angela came up the next day, so Donna was happy at the injection of estrogen to the campsite. Their property is amazing to say the least. Apparently it is impossible in Canada to actually own water, such as a lake. However, Dan and Angela have purchased 120 acres of land that completely surrounds a lake, essentially giving them the lake as well, for a total of 180 acres of relatively private bliss. They are in the process of developing it, and when they do it will be one heck of a property. We canoed the lake and hiked the area, and best of all, Donna didn't freeze.
Birthdays.
So Donna and I each had birthdays in October. We went out for dinner with her friends to the best of the local Chinese restaurants. It's not bad, for white-bread Chinese. Yes, there is a buffet at lunch for $6.50, but does that necessarily mean that it's a bad place to eat? In this case no, particularly since there is not really anything better Chinese-wise in the downtown area. It was pretty good, and since we hadn't had Chinese for awhile, it was pretty good. For my birthday, some of us went to one of the better local pizza places, Woodenhead's. Slippy, if your reading this, (probably not since this is way to lowbrow for your self-proclaimed towering intellect) we did not have the famous Coconut Shrimp, but we did dine on some delicious wood-oven pizza and fresh salads. I got Donna some new flannel sheets to help ward-off the now present winter chill, and Donna got me the new Halo 3 video game, perfect for an out of work bum with nothing else to fill his days.
Rugby.
For the months of September, October, and the first part of November, rugby was pretty much all consuming. I didn't have much else to do, so it was actually pretty good. We ended up getting through the regular season in first place. We thumped Trent in the first round of the playoffs 99-0. That's right, 99-0. We actually had chances to get to triple digits, but missed several kicks that would have put us over the century mark. The following week, we beat heated rivals 18-13 in front of a great home crowd. The bleachers were packed, and they even put up a beer garden and food tent for the game. It was a very hard game, with several close plays that truly tested the Queens Players. The guys played very hard and were both technically sound and mentally tough against Western. This confirmed a spot for us against Brock in the finals at Fletcher's Field in Toronto.
The weekend of Nov. 10 we travelled to Toronto, getting there on Friday evening so we would have time to get a run in before it got too dark. Along the way we stopped at Luke Follwell's parent's farm for lunch, that's right, the whole bus load of rugby players were fed by two of the nicest people ever. I am not sure I would want to open my house to 40 hungry rugby players, coaches, and trainers. That's a lot of food. It was delicious, and a nice team bonding activity.
The eating didn't stop there. A Queen's alum, Rick Powers (great guy), took the team out to dinner. Pasta, salad, and bread... lots of carbs for the guys. Then he took the coaches and trainers out for "real dinner." So after eating a healthy portion of pasta, a few hours later I was treated to ribs a fries. Let's just say I ate way too much that day, especially since I got up the next morning and ate at the breakfast buffet.
All that eating didn't get us a win though. It was a close game, and Queens had several chances to put the ball over the try-line, but we couldn't capitalize on our attempts. We lead at two points early in the game, thanks to Bryn Davie's kicking, but it was not enough. It was a great season, and the guys should really be proud of themselves. I had a great time working with them and I can't wait to get back to it next year.
Toronto.
Donna drove down after the game and we spent the night in Toronto, doing all the good Toronto things that Kingston doesn't offer. We ate and bought a car load full of Asian groceries and socialized with several friends of Donna's doing rotations in Toronto at the time. It was a nice time. Thanks again to Donna's cousins for letting us stay with them.
Employment.
So I was beginning to get a little depressed with the lack of work. September went by without a sniff, although I applied to a few jobs. I managed to get an interview for an occasional teaching position (TOC or substitute for all you Vancouverites) at the beginning ofOctober, and I thought it went pretty well (I also thought my interview at Alpha 3 years ago went well, but I found out later that it wasn't my best effort). Later in October, on my birthday no less, I got a call telling me I had a job, and that I needed to go to an orientation meeting on 5th of November. At that meeting I found out that I could expect to be getting calls starting November 19th. I actually got a call before that because they were extra short people, but I worked only 3 days in those first 3 weeks. 3 days of work in over 4.5 months. How's that for unemployment?
Anyway, I got a really good break the other day. I actually have semi-permanent work for the next few weeks, which will see me through to the Christmas break. It isn't quite full time, but they are really good about trying to get my workload topped up when other people are way from the school. It's in Odessa, which is just a 25 minute drive from Kingston. Its a great school and the staff is really nice.
To get back and forth from school, I decided after much deliberation to get snow tires. Good thing. I had them put on and the next day in dumped a whole pile of snow. How do these Ontario people put up with this? It also dropped to -20 today, turning much of the roadways into skating rinks. Nice eh?
Computer.
Almost done...just a little more patience required. So I haven't been able to post because my computer packed it in. I hate computers. After some research and a little bit of luck, I have secured myself a new computer that is working just fine. But I do hate Windows Vista. It is not total crap, but it is definitely not a drastic improvement over XP. My biggest itch right now is that I can't get Windows Live Messenger to work. I like using messenger. I want this fixed. Somebody help me.
OK. That's it. Regular up dates and hopefully some more photos will come soon. If I don't freeze first.
Thanksgiving.
Donna knew that I was feeling a little crumby at my lack of work, so she said she was going to make me Thanksgiving Dinner. I got really excited. We were going to have people over.

Time to Move?
Donna and I are thinking of moving out of our apartment. This is not really earth shattering news. There is even a two bedroom that has become available in our building so if we decided to keep renting, it would be pretty easy right now. I like the the new apartment not just because there is more space, but because it face north so the sun isn't so bad. North is also the water side, which is nice at least until the new apartment is done and we lose that too.
The only problem is that our building is going to the dogs. First, new people moved in next door and they like to cook curry. Lots of curry. Our bedroom now smells of curry. This is not really ideal for Donna and I. Second, they can never seem to keep the washers and dryers working. This is a bit of a problem. Thirdly, we are having some minor parking issues as I can't keep parking my car in visitor parking. Lastly, the other day when I was going to walk Donna to work, there was vomit in the elevator. Yes, someone had chundered in the elevator after too much of a good party.
Needless to say it might be time to move.

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall...
So I went to the "From Geek to So Chic" contest on Saturday. I mentioned earlier it was this whole make-over thing that Donna entered me in. Well, it turns out that I am not the ugliest, dorkiest, or geekiest person in Kingston, because I didn't win anything.
I am a little disappointed at not winning the $2500.00, but the $25.00 isn't totally useless, since it's good anywhere in the mall. And Donna says she will use the free Bodyshop makeover thingy.
The two guys who did it, Chris and Steve something-or-other (they have a show on Slice TV) turned out to be pretty funny, although one of them was a little annoying. Anyway, not a complete waste of time.

Huh...Interesting
So the last couple of days have been pretty interesting. Well not so much I guess, but a couple of different things happened.
The first was that I actually won something. Strange enough, I didn't even enter to win, Donna entered me. The contest is called "From Geek to Chic" and is designed for those people who are fashioned challenged. You send in an incriminating photo and a short write-up about why that person should win. If you get picked as being needy, your entry is read over the local radio station and you win a $25.00 gift certificate to the local mall and a Body Shop gift pack. You also get entered to win a 2500.00 gift card for the same local mall and a consultation by 2 fashion gurus from some show on Slice TV, but you have to go the mall and be embarrassed in front of all interested shoppers. All in all it is a totally embarrassing experience, which is why Donna had no intentions of entering herself, and because I have very little shame I told her she could enter me.
Now I am not the snazziest dresser (nor the coolest, because what person uses the word "snazziest?") but I am by far not the worst either. But, I get $25.00 and the chance to make fun of someone who dresses worse than me. And if that person doesn't exist in Kingston, then I get $2500.00, so it seems to be a win-win situation. Little do they know that if I win the $2500.00, I will get Donna some stuff she wants, then I am planning on buying a big-ass TV. Definitely not what the style gurus are going to want me to buy, but whatever.
Later that day, actually the next day because it happened 30 minutes after midnight, the fire alarm went off at our apartment building. I learned that I am a product of my upbringing and career. We have fire drills at school all the time. What do you do? Look after the little people in your classroom, grab your valuables and a coat and go outside after locking your door. What did I do that night? Looked after the little person in the apartment (Donna is probably capable of looking after herself, but its been ingrained in my head), grabbed the valuables (keys, wallet, phone, xbox 360... just kidding) and locked the door. We take the stairs down only to find that there are actually very few people outside. My favourite was probably the two people on the very top floor of our building look outside and wondering what the commotion was. So dumb. Now I know that most of the time these things are nothing except a broken sensor or something, but really, do you want to take the chance, especially if you are on the 8th floor?
Pretty funny actually, and I have very little sympathy for someone who hears the fire alarm, then decides to put their earplugs in and go back to bed. Darwinism at its finest.

You pay when you get older
Donna is really very funny. Many people probably don't get to see this though because she works in a serious job (saving lives is serious isn't it?) and at other times she is a pretty quiet. However its true take my word for it.
Today for instance. We are walking home from breakfast at the Sleepless Goat (Local Kingston cafe with ridiculous breakfasts for next to nothing. We shared a cinnamon bun, and then an order of three eggs, 3 pieces of homemade all natural toast, a pile of in-house roasted potatoes and sausage galore, plus juice and coffee for $11.00). As we pass a restaurant patio, we see this table get up. They look marginally funny, but that's because they are in town for the Kingston Poker run. The Kingston Poker run is this giant boat race through the Thousand Islands on these multi-million dollar racing boats rich people call toys. They come from all over North America, and at each stop along the race they get a card from a deck. After the race is over, best hand wins.
Anyway, as this group gets up, it is pretty easy to see that the men are a bunch of playboys who are well passed there prime. One of them has a piece of arm-candy who is pretty hot despite her cougarish nature. The other has what could have called arm candy and probably was 7 or 8 years ago. I say: "look at the boys and their arm candy." Donna says: "She isn't arm candy, she's arm baggage." I burst out laughing, and they probably hear me but either don't care or don't know what's so funny. The great thing was that Donna was prettier by far than either of them.

Celebrity Jeopardy
OK, so I love Will Ferrell on SNL doing Celebrity Jeopardy. It might be the funniest thing that has every been on TV, all thanks to Sean Connery. However, last night, there may have been something funnier on TV... real Celebrity Jeopardy. Regis Philbin, Carson Kressley (from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy), and who would have guessed, Nancy Grace, who I think may be the dumbest person on TV. Now I don't want to go and have her sue me for libel issues... but come on. Have you every watched her? I saw her interviewing Jack Hanna, the semi-famous animal guy from the columbus zoo. Some of his animals were smarter than she was. After being told that porcupines have quills with barbs on them that sick into an attacking animal, she asked which ends the barbs were on. Yes, becuase it would make sense for the porcupine to have the barbs sticking into itself, when when attacked, large chunks of flesh would be ripped out.
How does a person like that get on celebrity Jeopardy? The more important question is how does a person like that get on CNN? And her voice is annoying to boot!! Its not like she has a nice "news" voice, its whiney and irritating.
Anyway, it was pretty funny last night when she confused Flamingos (giant pink birds with long legs) and Flamenco (spanish musical genre and dancing style) becuase not only do those things sound the same, they also look and sound the same as well. An easy mistake to make, for a 6-year old.
Anyway, enjoy the clip of Celebrity Jeopardy.
