I officially hate Christmas. I don't like the fact that I spend money that I don't have or can't really spend, I'm bothered by useless people racing to get that last minute gift item, I lose out on work hours, which means less pay because of the holiday and I can't really relax because of all the above. Oh, but it's a time to enjoy with the family. Yeah sure whatever. I'm going to see my daughter, hang out for a bit, and the next day I spend it with my mom and brother, and that's about it. Conversation drops to a snails pace. Sigh.

On the lighter and happier side, that crazy cold snap we had (even currently which is -15 or so), my car has never been better. I LOVE my car starter. Thank you Bob !!!

It was busy at Essies tonight. We lose Thursday at Studio because of the holiday but are back in the swing on Saturday. At least from what I hear, people are saying it's the place to be now. And that makes me happy. Vince, Josh, Chad and everyone else has put their time and effort into it and they're seeing the rewards now. 2010 coming up soon. What DOES the future hold for me?

Had our Studio 54 Xmas staff party tonight. It was a fun filled affair with pre-supper snacks and drinks. Then we had Chinese food for supper which was fantastic. Finally topping it off with a gift exchanged which went quite good. Had more drinks and had a good time and even danced a little. Towards the end though, I kind of got stuck in the dj booth which was ok with me, on a personal reason. Let's hope it works out well for me.... :)

Yep the weather came back and is being a total tart again this weekend. Not as cold as last Monday but cold enough. Have our Studio 54 Christmas staff party tonight. My date that I was supposed to bring backed out on me and I'm left with nobody yet again. Sigh........

Dream: Bizarre dream of a social event of some sort. I remember the 2nd half of it, of my computer sitting on a desk and catching on fire. So I let it burn as I couldn't put it out and went to get some food. So busy at this restaurant I went to. More of like a pizza place. They were so swamped that they were serving individual slices to people going through an automated drive through. Then a little bit later, I went to check on my computer again, tried starting it up, and amazingly it did. The strangest part of the whole dream I think was the end, where I was at a summer type fair concert. It was a country act, and everyone was inside waiting for the show to start. I get on the mic and did a grand intro for them, and got no response from the crowd. They almost seemed pissed off that it started so late. Then whoever the organizers were, decided to move them outside. After I asked a friend of mine that was there why everyone seemed distant in their reactions he said that they were upset about the whole thing, and getting moved outside was the topping of the cake. Not sure what this dream is supposed to mean...

COLD !!! BRRRR........

I hate cold weather. no matter how much I dress for it. Monday night, apparently we set a record for the coldest city in Canada. At 3 AM, after I got off work I went home and checked the weather network. It was -39 C regular temperature and with the wind chill it was -51 C. -51 C ?!? What the f*ck is that !!! Needless to say if I don't have to go out, I'm not. It's warmed up considerably throughout the week, and this weekend it's supposed to plunge into the deep freeze temperatures again. UGH !!!

Question: Why can't they get the city guys to clear the snow from the middle of the road at night when traffic is a lot less?

Long time no blog ! Where you been hiding ?! LOL

Well it would seem that winter is in full swing now. We just got a ton of snow dumped on us here on Friday. Blizzard like conditions as blowing snow and cold temps made for havoc. I went to mom's to attempt to clean off the driveway, but I got about halfway done. Whenever I would clean off a section, the wind would start to fill it up again with snow. I was beat by the elements. So I drove home, crawled into bed and went to sleep.

This weather makes useless people drive even worse. All those jackasses in their big trucks, and SUVs think they're better than the rest of us by driving at high speeds on bad roads. Screw you all and hope bad fortune rains, or in this context, snows on your parade !!
