Depression

Ever been depressed?

I'm sure you have, certainly all manners of people have been depressed at some point in their lives. I'm not so much depressed right now as I am angry, angry that the obligations of life outweight my enjoyment of it. Let me set the stage for you, I go to school full time throughout the week and I work Fridays and Saturdays until 3AM at a bar called Cowboy's Ranch here in London.

Such a schedule leaves me with no 'party nights'. Meaning I have no evenings free in which I can drink my face off without the reprecussions of responsibility draining my happiness. I find myself faced with great effort if I want to continue this lifestyle; my neglected social life most likely cannot survive.

I'm frustrated especially with people who seem to coast through life without a care in the world. Welfare people; there are so many of them here in London that it's astonishing. I'd never seen so many lazy people in my life before moving here. I hate this city; wish I was back in Calgary...

Signature Gallery

Well, as most of the people who visit this blog will no doubt be aware, I live for Internet Signatures. I love to make them and improve my talents, and I've been doing it for quite a number of years. Unfortunately I've lost 70% of my past works because of moving, changing computers, etc, so in an effort to keep everything in one place, I've decided to add a gallery to this place.

Moving Day

I happen to be moving houses tomorrow and I thought I'd just give a little heads up to anyone who still reads this crap-ass blog. It's nothing major in the way of relocation, we're only moving a couple of kilometres away, but still right within the city of London.

The thing that sucks is that I have to work tonight, which of course means I'll be at work until 3AM, minimum. Then I have to trek over to the new apartment and sleep there for the night, at which point I'll have to get up around 8AM to let the damned movers in.

It's going to be a rough, exhausting weekend; I've already decided that.

Am I Wrong?

Am I wrong, or does the government suck?

Recently in Canada, Parliment Hill chose not to lower the federal flags in memorium of the four Canadian soldiers that recently died in Afghanistan. They cited their reason as being that we have a day of Remembrance on Nov 11th every year, in remembrance of the end of WWI, and to honour all veterans who have died in the service of Canada. Good, I understand and wholly support Remembrance Day and I'm proud to have a day where we get to honour our veterans of past and present, however what the Government did was hold a vote to see whether they would lower the flags to half or not. The indecision made their answer seem like a slap in the face to the families of those recently deceased soldiers.

I believe that the Government should be unyielding in the upholding of the laws of state, it's the fact that they had the internal rumbling enough to have to hold the vote, like some the members of Parliament, don't know their own laws. Whenever our government is featured on the news, I'm almost embarrassed to be Canadian.

Shape up guys, or we'll ship you out.
