You know, when I was 10, it was all the rage to buy pixie sticks from the nearest convenience store (which I believe was "Roger's" at the time, though I could be mistaken) and empty the contents into your hand and snort it. Yes, that's right, Saskatchewan encourages drug addiction at an early age. ...actually, no. My teacher got mad and took the candy away from the guys who were doing it.

Anyway. The moral of this story is that having candy in your nose is painful.

Why does this come up? Well, I was just eating poprocks, and went to swallow a mouthful, mistakingly believing the carbon to all have been used up from the candy. Well, one of those candies decided to pop whilst being swallowed and ended up in my nasal canal where it continued to pop. And oh my gods did it ever hurt. o.O;;

Right. Still in a bad mood... yet, at the same time... hyper. It's weird.

Watched Moon Child this morning. Got pretty much what I had expected from it.

May not be around much today. I've got a couple of meetings, though the second one might be changed into a phone call... still, not feeling terribly well. I fucking hate my down cycles. They last too fucking long.

About ten minutes ago, I nearly died.

Let's just say wet roads and 12 year old breaks do not a happy couple make.

(Un?)fortunately, I am a decent enough driver that instead of ending halfway through the busy intersection, I was merely sideways in the two lanes of the road on my side. Light changed and I went on like nothing happened.

I have too many near-death/dangerous experiences for my own good... yet I'm in no rush to change it. If I didn't know better, I'd say I was hoping one of these times to lose the 'near' part of that experience.


On a brighter note, package from Helayne came today. (My goodness, that was quick! And thank you so much. This thing is massive! :O) Guess that means whoever was eating my mail in Canada Post has stopped doing it.

Attention to any females aged 18+ and living in the Ottawa area (or willing to commute). If you're looking for a summer job, Camp Woolsey, the local Girl Guide camp, is currently short staffed and looking for more people to work on sites. (ie the position of "Site Staff") There's a contract salary of $250/week plus room and board and, overall, it's a lot of fun.

Anyone who is interested, please see the website. I know it says the deadline is passed, but we're still looking for people. If you're interested, drop me a line and I'll talk to the camp directors for you to try and give you a leg up. (But you still have to do all the paperwork. XP) And you don't have to be a girl guide to be staff, but you do have to abide by the rules and regulations of guiding while there.
