Being the gadget whore that I am, I picked up the iPhone when it became available in Canada. Turns out Wordpress made an application to make blog posts easy on the iPhone, so I figured I would give it a try. My new goalie pads should be showing up in the next 10 ten days or so. I’ve been waiting over two months for them to arrive so I’m pretty pumped.
Little update on the Roll Up the Rim to Win situation. I am still 0 for something, and don’t expect it to change anytime soon. I figure one of these days I’m not even going to get the obligatory ‘Please Play Again’, and it will just be blank, or say, ‘Give the fuck up already’. Anyway, I’m not bitter at all.
Adrienne and I were into the lawyer’s office today to sign all the necessary documents. All we have to do now is have our pre-close inspection and as long as everything goes as planned we will be receiving the keys sometime on Monday. I can’t wait to go through the place without someone else’s crap filling up the place.
I woke up this morning, and I use that phrase loosely, and decided to work from home today due to the lack of sleep. So my day was already off to a wonderful start, and then I find an abnormally large puddle of water on the kitchen floor. I say abonormally becuase there’s usually a small one from whenever I fill up the ice cube trays. Anyway, when I open the freezer everything is melting and/or defrosted. The apartment must be pissed at us for moving out or something.
So apparently I’m going to try blogging again, for the tenth or so time. Just signed up for hosting with DreamHost, since I let my hosting at Media Temple expire a few weeks ago. I vaguely remember something about my firstborn being part of the renewal terms. Somehow their base hosting account doubled in price since I first signed up. Oh well, DreamHost seems to be a better host overall anyway.
As I do every year around Roll Up the Rim time, I’ve picked up a daily tea habit. I’ve probably gone through roughly 25 cups and so far have come up with nada. No coffee, no cookie, not even a fucking Timbit! I keep telling myself that it’s all building up to me winning a Matrix or Bayliner or something, but I have feeling that may be a tad delusional. I’ve had cups that are different sizes, from different stores, even in 3 different provinces, but nothing’s working.
While it doesn’t quite make up for the lack free coffees, etc. I do have some good news. Adrienne and I are buying a house. We only spent about a week actually going out to see places but we found a place in Stratford that we really like and are closing in about 10 days. For the first time in my life I will have a garage, which excites me to no end.
