Victoria Clubber's: A Rant

I have been spending a lot of time in Victoria recently. I enjoy it here. The people are nice. Like really nice. Let me paint a picture for you of just how nice they really are.

-Almost every person says thank-you when they get off the bus
-People will stop at green lights to let you cross the street


So why is it that as soon as you throw these very nice people into a club, they suddenly become very rude and completely un-aware of personal space.

I have never been stepped on, kicked, bumped into, danced on, shoved and generally had my bubble violated like i have in a Victoria bar.

And im not the only one who feel's this way. I was talking to a few friends last night that have lived in many different city's and they also felt that Victoria clubbers were extra pushy and have a tendancy to bump into people with out even noticing it.

So what is it that happen's to these nice Island Folk that makes them so un aware of their current surroundings and send's them into all out flail once they hit the club floor?

I have started to make use of some old records by turning them into funky art. These bowls are the first of many vinyl related pieces.

My intent is to start selling my works of decorative art.

These bowls are great for centre pieces, planters, change, keys. They can be filled with things like marbles, stones, sand, candles (just careful not to melt the vinyl)

Please let me know if you just must have one.

Prices range from $15-$25 (some are harder to make then others)

Come to the dark side, We have .... toast?

Im pretty sure i need this!

Getting helped.

Group yesterday was good. Emotional but good.

Im pretty excited for Halloween tomorrow. For more then one reason.

Cleaned my house last night. Did some minor rearranging.

The only thing left to be cleaned is the thing that needs it the most..... My kitchen. I am currently avoiding it like the plague...... In fact i wouldn't be surprised if there was some plague in there. My god is it gross.

Group

I found a group therapy session for dealing with loss. Its free and is pretty close to my house. It goes from 2:30 - 4pm. so it wont interfere with work. So I really have no excusses for not going. lets see how this works out. Maybe I can regain normal functioning human statis once again.

I have come to the conclusion that I cant deal with this on my own. I think i need professional help. Its been over 3 months since you died and im still having all out break downs. I think its time to call in a grief councilor. I didnt want it to come to this, i wanted to handle this on my own. but i cant. I miss you. And i cant move on.

I think im more mad at my self for still being this fucked up about it. I know you would kick my ass for hurting this much and not being able to get past it. but im hurting and i need help.

I miss you and i love you.

I cant just push you out of my mind to go about my day to day any more. I cant not celebrate you and remember you. I need help.

I roll 20's

I went to the Comic Shop yesterday and bought my self a set of shiny new polyhedral dice for playing DnD.

So i get home, open the box and dump them all on to the table...... and roll a 20.


If that isnt a good omen I dont know what is.

October

Wow. I am already starting to feel the effects of a Vancouver winter. Its been raining for a week now. And im already wanting it to stop.

What happened to the lovely city that I had fallen in love with right off the bat.

Also, whats happened to my life?

I used to do things. I used to have fun. I used to see friends. Now that i live down town and im not in school any more, i have become a hermit. I havent seen my friends from school in ages. I knew it would happen though. They are all caught up in there classes and im not part of the cool club any more.

Oh well... sigh....


Bitch bitch bitch.... whine whine whine right.

*Tumble weed rolls by*

Okay Okay so I have been avoiding the blog. There is not much new and awesome to report.

I have started to learn Japanese. Im pretty excited about this.

Adam and I have been hanging out a lot lately. Im only slightly getting sick of him. ;)

And for the record. No we are not dateing. No we are not sleeping together. We are honistly just friends. and its rad.

Home Again

On my way back to Vancouver now.. HURRAY! I cant wait to see my kitten!!!!

PAX Day 1

Today was very very busy. But in hindsight we didn't do a whole lot.

But first here are some more pictures of yesterday's adventures.

We ended up going to the Sci-Fi museum, which was fucking awesome IMO. But to get to the museum we had to ride... THE MONORAIL!!!




Me with my bff



Sign's on the bathroom door's

We also went to Fun Forest, which is right out side the Experience Music Project/Sci Museum. Which was a very small, very empty carnival.







So thats about it for yesterday. Here is the link for the Loading Time video for yesterday.

Today, like I pre mentioned felt very very long. We picked up our badges after breakfast but at 2:30am it feels like that was days ago. There was much line sitting today, as well as a lot of walking.

Im not really in a writing mood, so i will post pictures tomorrow of the actuall Con.
