Bourbon
Congratulations! You're 120 proof, with specific scores in beer (60) , wine (100), and liquor (78).

Screw all that namby-pamby chick stuff, you're going straight for the
bottle and a shot glass! It'll take more than a few shots of Wild
Turkey or 99 Bananas before you start seeing pink elephants. You know
how to handle your alcohol, and yourself at parties.



My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:
You scored higher than 64% on proof
You scored higher than 89% on beer index
You scored higher than 96% on wine index
You scored higher than 91% on liquor index

That's disgusting. I should have done a billion times better, but I forgot almost EVERYTHING. I'm going to go look for that guide now to brush up (when my dad was getting his bartender's license a few years back, guess who his study buddy was? I was the only 6th grader who knew how to mix drinks xP)

My computer is such a bastard. We actually get a program on to it that works beautifully and doesn't expose us to all the shit on the internet, and it now refuses to open. My computer murdered Firefox. Now I'm stuck using what is quite possibly the dumbest browser EVAR (MSN Explorer). The writing is all so tiny, it burns my eyes :(


Anyway..yesterday was Easter Seals Telethon day. I was afraid they were going to put me on the phones taking donations, because I'm most definitely not a phone person. But they put us into the Kids Party room, which was infinitely better..it was just one of the CBC studios set up with a stage for the performers, and a bunch of different activity tables for the kids. My mom and I got the Arts and Crafts table, which kicked ass :). We basically just stood around and supervised the kids as they arted.

And then Al the evil floor manager guy came over and made us bring out the bubbles.

He had brought these bubble wand things; y'know, the ones you dip in bubble solution and then wave around, and it produces these massive bubbles. He also brought those Touch-A-Bubble things, which are pretty neat, except when they land, they wrinkle and shrivel into these gross little piles of goo. It was all strictly photo-op stuff; he'd bring a few of the disabled kids over, hand them some bubbles, and then film them while one of the Telethon hosts would stand there and talk. Not a big problem, except it was incredibly messy..I now know why my mother didn't buy us a lot of bubbles when we were kids. I'm not complaining, because it was fun, but I had to sit there holding two or three tubes of bubble solution, while the kids dipped it in (splashing a lot of it in my eyes and all over my clothes, in the process), and then waved these huge bubbles, which usually ended up in my face. Not to mention the touch-a-bubbles which ended up in my hair. Some kids were cool about it, but every now and then there was the bratty kid who wouldn't share with anyone else, and who wouldn't listen when we told him to stay on the carpet, and would poke other kids in the eye. Every time we tried to put the bubbles away and hide them, another kid would come over and notice the wands sticking out from under the table, and the process would begin anew. I had to wash my hands about fifty times. I never want to see another bubble as long as I live.

But like I said, it was fun, we were in the studio with all the performers, so we got to see it all. It wasn't hugely exciting, just some stars of kids shows from CBC (weird freaks in bright clothes, strange wigs, and hideous makeup), plus the cast of Mamma Mia (omg Abba songs x_X), plus some highland dancers, plus Robert Munsch (my mom told me a funny story about how I went to one of his book-signings when I was four, and he asked me to spell my name, and I just looked at him. So my mom started to spell it for me, and he got all snippy with her. She's so bitter about it :P), plus others I can't remember. I was kind of hoping to see Pinball Clemmens, because he's apparently really cool, but he was at the Super Bowl. Football, feh. I drew a picture of a parrot, and they put it on one of the boards, so it may have gotten on TV (that was about as close to television exposure as I got; I was going to be in one of the bubble shots, but I chickened out). Oh, and lots of cute kids :)

Fun day, overall, maybe I'll do it again next year.

Whatever, just as long as I don't have to get it yanked out. I covet my teeth!

"BLARGH! THERE IS A PROBLEM, BITCH! YOUR DISC MAY BE DAMAGED OR DIRTY SO SUCK IT! I'M GOING TO KEEP PLAYING THE AUDIO FROM THE GAME JUST TO TEASE YOU, BUT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO RESET ME AND LOSE ALL YOUR PROGRESS! DAMN I'M COOL!"



My Xbox is such a weiner. I'm going to be seeing that Green Screen of Doom in my nightmares :(

Man, I've only been awake for probably 10 hours, and I already want to go back to sleep. Now THAT'S laziness.

And now, because I'm really bored, and because it was interesting when other people did it....

Shit about me that you may not have known, and probably don't care to know, but I'm telling you anyway so SUCK IT )

2:10 am - Milk carton mug shot baby, missing since 1983!
Hurrah, Christmas.

I didn't get a whole lot (comparatively; it looks like a big list, but it's really not), but it's Christmas, so no complaints.

-Bunch of clothes
-Annual toiletries from my grandmother
-Another matching hat/glove/scarf set to add to my growing collection :P
-Obligatory Lord of the Rings DVD (seriously, did anyone NOT get this?)
-CD player
-Shitload of stuff from the Body Shop (mango-y)
-More pajama pants, which I always seem to need for some reason
-A big plasticy not-a-purse (but it looks a lot like a purse) for putting aforementioned toiletries into
-Moneys
-SOCKS!
-A watch which I'm going to end up losing (I always do)
-And Fable, which is one of the most bizarre games I have ever played..I mean, farting at people to freak them out is cool and all, but wtf? Still, it's amazingly good fun thusfar, if only the Xbox would stop being such a Grinch (HAWHAW CHRISTMAS REFERENCE GET IT?!) and work properly before I take a hammer to it.



Oh, and Billy Talent focking rools.

current music: Pippin's tragic (yet adorable) little Hobbit song
