Die Hard 3 and Modest Mouse
I think I'm getting stupider when it comes to the JU trivia challenge.
If I do well one day, it automatically means that I'm going to suck the next, and finish that game dead last. So many times, I'll think that I'm going to mess up an answer and it turns out right, but often, when I'm certain that the answer I've given is correct, I'm met with a big X in the scoring later. I puff myself up though, by observing that it is American centred, and as a Canadian, my country's history questions are never featured. How the hell should I know who the 21st president is? (Actually I do know, but I can thank Bruce Willis and co. for that one.) I have a hard enough time remembering who the current prime minister is here.
I had a fight with my sister, one that was high in volume and very heated. While we both had good points, I was honestly in the wrong to say what I did. I hate being wrong. I can find it in me to apologize, though. I'm sure I've ruined her day, and I've got a guilty lump in my throat for shame. I honestly don't appreciate her enough, sometimes, and I mean to say so tonight.
I've been playing Literati online at Yahoo games. I'm just new at it, and so, my scores aren't that high, but I sense a new addiction forming.
I've always had an addictive personality. From food to cigarettes, to the mild obsession of good Belgium beer, I know enough to stay away from other potential hazzards. Drugs. I'm happy to say that I've avoided them so far. I've got nothing against the mild ones, but know that I'd be better off to remain pristine in that area. And whether or not an introduction to the tamer kind leads to further attraction to harsher, and more dangerous stuff, I'm not willing to find out personally. I just know that when I like something, I want more of it. End of story, there.
I've got almost 5 days off until my next booked day, and I'm spending some of it heading North to visit my brother, his wife and new baby girl. The stupid part? Voluntarily getting into a mini-van that will be shared with my parents, my sister and the two girls for a 6+ hour long car ride. And although I mentioned an aversion to drugs, I'm not ashamed to admit that I will happily take as much Gravol to knock me out for much of the trip. Link
