It’s buy nothing day tomorrow. I am going to go pick up a few groceries a little later so I am not eating rice all day tomorrow. With a little foresight it is so easy to take part. The corporations don’t have the power, we do.

Sleepy. I’ve been very hesitant to face reality today. Skipped class (Networking, where we get nifty diagrams like this one below to illustrate what translation is. Not often do I laugh out loud in lecture but this diagram did it for me.).

Cat’s pajamas? Grandma is the coolest. So much work I am shirking right now. I watched some TV tonight. I don’t think it’s a coincidence I feel more braindead than I have for a long time. If you take a break from it and go back the stupefying effect is really noticeable. It is the basketball that sucks me in. I watched some Futurama after the game.

“Bender, you didn’t touch the crushinator did you?”
“Of course not! A lady that fine you have to romance first”

After that I flipped the channel just in time to see the end of a Southpark where a Kenny lookalike slid out of Mrs. Crabtree’s birth canal, down some stairs, coming to a stop in a pool of cartoonish birthing juices, all in front of a live television audience.

“I feel great. I haven’t had this much attention paid to my cooch since I was sixteen”

That was it for me. The TV went off after that. It was the kind of sick humour I appreciate but I am not having it right now (I laughed at the bonus kid that slid out just before the credits though. Maybe you had to see it, the bodies were all deformed, smushed and slimy. So brilliantly offensive.).

“I told you I was a tight virgin flower!”

Ahh no… I just received an e-mail back from my parents that was very painful to read. I have to say no. I know my mom really misses me. On the rare occasions she gets me on the phone, she never wants to let go and there is clear and obvious disappointment when I end the conversation. Major, major guilt, this feels absolutely terrible…

Hey,
How about just coming for a couple of days, I would be willing to pay for tickets. From Toronto to T Bay on the 24th and back on the 26th is only about $300.00. Let me know right away and I can book the tickets for you, it would mean a lot to your mother as she hasn’t seen you for almost two years, Love your father.
