Valentines

So today is valentines day. I'm single, but I'm okay with that. Single is sexy and I'm happy with my life.

I was getting thai for supper and on my way home a girl asked me for some change. She didn't look like the usual hobo, jut looked like a girl down on her luck.

I gave her $10. She hugged me, almost cried and seemed so grateful.

This year, that girl is my valentine. Hope you got where you had to be, my dear.

late night upset.

A graffiti quote comes to mind:

"everything for everyone and nothing for ourselves."


Bucket of suck. goodnight.

this place is a powdercake!! (you notice 'em...)


This is a mini post about where I live. And where you live. Earlier in my posts I mentioned the fire that swallowed my sister's apartment while she was on her honeymoon. Some dumbass had fallen asleep while smoking and ran out of the building when the awoke to the fire. Another neighbour, who smelled the smoke, alerted everyone in the building and saved everyone. The place was destroyed, with the fire making a b-line from the back apartment to their right corner one. They lost everything from the wedding, all the new furniture and appliances they had purchased for their new apartment and new life together.

And they had no insurance.

If you live in Ottawa, and if you have been watching the news this past month, there have been apartment fires one after another, gutting buildings and stranding renters over and over again. It's even worse because the majority of these people do NOT have insurance. It's scary, because most of these people are students, or people holding part-time jobs and people who can't afford to start over again.

After all the fires this month and after watching my sister going through what she did, I got insurance last week. It's not expensive (around $200 or so for a full year, depending on whatever) and it helps you out! It obviously isn't going to replace everything, and you still have to deal with the shock of losing your possessions and home, but at least it helps move forward from the chaos.

Think about it friends,
