You can get anything you want at Alice’s restaurant

You can get anything you want at Alice’s restaurant
You can get anything you want at Alice’s restaurant
Walk right in, it’s around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want at Alice’s restaurant

This song is called “Alice’s Restaurant
“It’s about Alice, and the
Restaurant, but “Alice’s Restaurant” is not the name of the restaurant,
That’s just the name of the song
That’s why I call the song “Alice’s Restaurant.”

Yes sir officer Obie, I cannot tell a lie – I put that envelope under that garbage

Good morning! Happy Thursday. Or as my wife calls it, happy Thanksgiving. I slept like the dead last night.

Construction started on the bed frame last night. More probably tonight for a little bit. There’s going to be a flight of stairs in the side so Crystal can climb up into it.

Work was a lot better yesterday. I don’t know why, somethings just seemed to click. Designers are needy people. I technically got paid yesterday, even though it doesn’t go through until Monday. It’s a pretty nice cheque, I’ll be able to pay my gramma back for her purchasing the wood for my bed frame.

Two more shifts. Today and tomorrow, and I’ll have a 3 day weekend. Happy Thursday everyone. Binge a good show, and binge on some good take away this evening!

Book Review: Midnight Sun

The book I didn’t think I needed to read! It’s not secret that I loved the Twilight Saga (although, I haven’t finished any other Twilight book since I got here), I didn’t think I needed to read a, and let’s be honest, a retelling of Twilight.

I was wrong.

This book is pretty much all Edward, all the time. He’s so far in his head, that I don’t think he’s ever be able to claw his way out of it.

There is one funny scene that I remember. It’s shortly after he’s met Bella, and he’s imagining/day dreaming of killing everyone in the class, especially Mike Newton, whom he just hates on a visceral level, just so he could drink all of Bella’s blood undisturbed.

While Edward’s side of things was very interesting, I loved learning more about his family. Alice is amazing in this book.

Just wait until you get to the “Phoenix Incident”. It’s glorious, and makes the whole book a show stopper.

Now, I want a book from Alice’s POV.

Throw your love around – love me, love me

Good morning party people. It’s Wednesday and it’s time to get up and greet the day. Coffee is brewing, and I’ll need it. I was tossy and turny all night. And to cap it all off at 12:35 my brain said ok, you have anxiety about your new job, here let’s throw police coming to the door to really mess with you. Up, wide awake for about 5 minutes. Then it was just weird dreams all night. Until the last dream of the night:

I was living in an apartment. The whole place was having a party, complete with Chinese food. I knew some of the people. It was a mix of people from Wyatt, and from when I was in cadets. I snuck away to the “common library” and found Crystal a coffee mug, and a copy – hardcover of Breaking Dawn Pt. 1. I didn’t even know that they split up the book like they did the movies. Who knows if they actually did in real life.

Yesterday just as I get to work, my phone rings. I don’t recognize the number but I answer it anyways. It’s one of the ladies from the second hand store asking if i can help unload their trailer. I tell her no I can’t, because I got a job and I’m at work. She sounded really annoyed that I couldn’t come. I apologized, and hung up. They had 5 months to ask for help. It’s just my luck that they finally call on my second week of work.

Anyways, happy Wednesday. May you day be full of caffeine, laughs, and a considerable lack of idiots.

I feel it in my fingers – I feel it in my toes

I woke up 1 minute before my alarm, and thought to myself, nice, I still got a half hour.

Narrator: he did not have a half hour.

Yesterday I told my mom that the bank of Canada will be removing Legal Tender status on the larger bills. Large bills like the $500 and $1000. She’s like this one? As she shows me a $1000 bill.

It is pretty impressive, to say the least.

I don’t think I have anything else to talk about this morning. I’m still mostly asleep. Happy Tuesday y’all!
