Apr. 7th, 2006 11:54 amOkay, whoever doesn't want random, stop reading this post right now.
First, seagulls. No, wait. Seagulls of the apocalypse!!! Doesn't anyone else find it creepy and strange that we have flocks and flocks of seagulls hanging out in Calgary at the beginning of freggin' April!? And rain? And bloody daffodils?
I mean, really people, when was the last time any of you remember saying 'April showers bring May flowers' in a completely non-sarcastic manner with reference to weather in Alberta? It's weird and wrong and there are little danger bells going off in my head. Caitlin, you know that movie you made me watch? The Day After Tomorrow? Yeah. That. *is scared*
Also, seagulls are annoying.
I declare that I will only be appeased by a large offering of snow from the sky.
Second, something I read in my yaoi community and had to share with you:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
epithetnix suggested that Hamlet bribed the pirates who took him home with sexual favours. And I find myself agreeing with her. ... ahem.
Finally, this came out at the bar last Thursday but I haven't had the chance to post it yet:
Look at this picture: http://x-worldcomics.com/YourVirtualStore/images/content/XXM019NEW.jpg
What is the first thing that you think? Because I stand by my comment of, 'When does the orgy start?'
Yes, that's all the weird things I have to say ... for now ...

Apr. 5th, 2006 11:42 amI forgot to watch NCIS last night *is annoyed with herself*
However, I did watch a bunch of stuff that I had on tape. For instance, I watched this Saturday's ep of Teen Titans and what's with the writing sucking a lot more than I remember from last time I watched this show.
Also, saw an episode of Justice League Unlimited where Flash and Lex switched bodies. "At the very least, I'll be able to learn the Flash's secret identity!!" *Lex removes Flash's mask* "I have absolutely no idea who this guy is." *Teri cracks up* Seriously, there is nothing funnier than that line.
Also watched Avatar. I am becoming seriously addicted to that show. Good premise, great writing, realistic bad guys, plot movement ... seriously, it's really well done. ... I know, it's weird for me to like a show because it's good rather than bad. *may have been looking at Mystic Knight pictures yesterday*
Anyways, then I played some of my computer game and when Amy came in to see what I was doing, I made her watch Batman (I'm talking Adam West here people) and it was so ridiculously, awesomely bad. I'm glad I made Amy watch it with me because I may have had to stop watching it without her for fear of dying of embarrassment on behalf of the actors.
"But Batman, we're only going a few blocks"
"Robin, soon you too will be able to drive and car safety is of paramount importance"
"Goly Batman, when you put it that way ..."
Oh the pain!
Anyways, read some Catwoman and went to bed ... I'm a little confused about Catwoman because I jumped from 10 to 37 and I know Hush happened in there but I don't know what the riots Selina was talking about were and what exactly happened between her and Slam?

Apr. 4th, 2006 03:03 pmHey guys, On Wednesday of this week, at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00 in the morning, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. That will never happen again. Interesting tidbit in my mail this morning.
However, more interesting e-mails are ( these )
Apologies about the long but I wanted to keep these and figured this was the best way to do so. I expect to see a few more e-mails about this by the end of the day ... Jeff Wickens, by the way, is my direct supervisor and Linda is my department supervisor, just to put things in perspective.

Mar. 29th, 2006 08:15 amI just got this in my e-mail account at work:
We received a jerry can of some kind of liquid in the mailroom yesterday.
It did not have anyone’s name on it.
If you were expecting this delivery please call the mailroom immediately. This is emitting an unpleasant smell and will need to be removed from the building if no one claims it.
*snicker*

Mar. 24th, 2006 07:48 amSO I didn't get to the bar last night because Nikki and I weren't getting very far with my website and we were watching FMA. I wanted to go to the bar too, but I can't actually be in three places at once.
I nearly killed myself driving home because the fog was so bad. I got up late this morning thinking my Dad would be leaving later since it's Friday and stuff but I got downstairs and he said we had to leave right away because he had a meeting at 7:30. This means no breakfast for Teri, I didn't have time to pack a lunch and also, my co-op advisor is calling from 11:30 to 1, so I can't go for lunch until 1. I'll probably head over to Shell's little snack bar café place at around 10. To make my day more complicated, I have no bus tickets because I forgot to buy more yesterday, so I'll have to get those at some point. Fridays aren't supposed to suck!
I'm bitter too because Amy had the day off yesterday and was all, "look what I did Teri" and showing me drawings and stuff and I would kill to have just one free day. My e-mail is reminding me that I have to go pay the United Way for the privilege of wearing jeans today ...
On another note, the people from the FLASH club sent me this:
For those of you that don't know, I was not in Guelph during the FLASH club elections, so I sent an e-mail with my speach to Tabby and she cut out a picture of my head. Now, apparently this picture of my head was 'cute' in the oringinal picture but by the time Tabby blew it up to life size ... well, you see. So now there's a running joke in the office about my head and they just happen to have my head lying around glued to a popsicle stick. You can see the possibilities for abuse. Granted, I nearly died of laughter when I saw this, but that's beside the point.
As an FYI, the board was made by the club for the college royal festival that takes place on the Guelph campus each year. The ribbon is apparently something we won as the best CSA club display or some such.
Anyways, this post is getting very long by my standards, so I'll stop now. I think I'll stop at the used CD store on my way home from work today; buying things will make me feel better. I think I'll go to Northland on Saturday too depending on when I get back from the stable ...

Mar. 22nd, 2006 10:26 amThis job isn't nearly as fun as my last one when it comes to stupidly random quotes, but this one had me choking on my water this morning:
"Avoid using explosives in fish-bearing waters."
I mean, you think about it and it makes sense for them to say it, but at the same time, there's this image in my mind of these rig guys going out to the river with their fishing lines and C-4.

Mar. 13th, 2006 10:02 amOkay, it already feels like a long day and I haven't even done anything yet. Why did I decide not to bring soup for lunch today?
I had to comment though: I was in my meeting and one of the guys there was telling us that there is apparently a group of 16 young women from Calgary who have rented a houseboat on the Shuswap for two summer months and they have placed for auction on e-bay the 17th room on the boat.
Does anyone else think this sounds like the plot of a really bad or really good anime? I kind of want to write it/see it. It would be like Love Hina meets Vandread.

Mar. 24th, 2005 09:32 amEngineering Jokes Cont'd
Fluids Class:
Prof: Most students have issue with skim friction because they have no physical concept of what it is.
Katie: Laughs in her everyone-can-always-hear-me voice
Prof: I guess I could have phrased that better
Prof (continuing): Think of it as analogous to the friction factor in ducts
Whole class: Laughs uproariously
Prof: Laughs and puts down his pen to regain his composure, conviniently stopping after having written anal on the overhead.
Lol ... I love being an engineer.
Numerical studying:
Me (pissed off): I'd like to spline you
Jenny: No, Teri, it's 'I'd like to reduce your matrix'
Jillian: Jenny, that just sounds kinky
Scott: Not as bad as 'I'd like to match your concavity'
The whole room (11 of us were in Caitlin's room) were in stiches for the next five minnutes. Of course, at this point, it was 1 in the morning and we were all doomed, so we were on the edge of hysteria anyways.
So that's been my week. I'll be in London this weekend. Yay
