It is a couple days before the start of September. I don’t know how many days it is before the start of September. I cannot be any more precise regarding the change of months beyond a general couple of days, give or take a day or two. The passing of time has all at once [...]

I’m in love with this image that was sent to me recently. It really is a call to citizens of Halifax Regional Municipality to think twice before they vote in the Fall 2008 Municipal Election. Note that the first image is a .jpg rendering of the original .pdf which follows:

the past six days have been a blended series of contracts and papers and jobs eating up my time (*). I’ve been stuck in a serious rut of “get up in the morning, do one thing for one pay, then do another for another pay, oh my god its 8pm!” routine. the money’s okay, for [...]

le sigh. here’s a list of stuff to consider.
1. i’ve had five nightmares in the past six nights. this is rather odd, since i hardly remember my dreams, let alone wake up from them. Several have involved zombies at war with other zombies, fighting for the soul (and brains) of mankind.
