It's recap time! Both mine and Marley's blog are synced to post at the exact same time. So if you want to read a similar but more successful post you can read her blog That's So Highschool 28 Days ago I said I would try to make it so I fit into my grad suit. Well after 1 whole month I can honestly say I don't fit into it anymore than I did February 2. I literally did nothing to help meet my goal aside from occasionally making sure I was only eating healthy foods and not 2 minute microwave junk. It seemed like everytime I went to go sign up for a gym membership the gym magically disappeared as if it was unplottable. Even more infuriating is the fact that numerous times when I was broke or to busy to get a membership the gym was in plane sight. I have not given up on my resolution and have until May to make sure it fits. On the other hand I finally got around to changing my guitar strings something I talked about doing back in January. Yes I procrastinate but eventually things to get done. I do plan to continue to attempt to get into my suit but don't expect anything anytime soon
I am going to Saskatoon on Friday and I am very excited about this since there are many people in Saskatoon that I haven't seen in quite awhile. Friday is also a mildly significant day and I will have more on that on Saturday most likely. So if you are reading this and I know you and you are in Saskatoon and you aren't already busy that night then give me a shout since I want to see as many people as possible while I am there since I have to leave by 8 A.M. on Saturday morning to be back at work on Noon.
And finally April will be a good month because as of April 1st Jack-O will no longer be living here. The Man Child is finally fed up with him and told him he has until the end of the month to get out here. You have no idea how happy this will make me since it seems everything Jack-O does drives me nuts. There is a slight chance that whoever replaces him will be worse but I highly doubt that would be possible. So things are looking up and that makes me happy! That also means less posts that consist of me complaining and more about how awesome everything is! That however does not mean I won't sneak in a few ripe cynical ones from time to time. Adios Amigos!

I Get Ideas I Get A Notion, I Want A Nice Little Boat Made Out of Ocean.
So I wasn't going to post but for some unexplainable reason I got 9 readers today despite the fact I only got two on the day I published it. I am still trying to figure out the logistics behind "blogging" but I am slowly learning new things. I am slightly conflicted with it though because I want to have as many people as possible read this because it would be a giant ego boost (Yes I am aware that 90% of the people who read that last line will never read this again) on the other hand I mention people in here and I don't say the nicest things about them like my stupid roommate Jacko who I hope gets a urinary disease because he drives me and the The Man Child absolutely insane. Yes I know that I don't use real names but it is not hard for them to know I am talking about them which is why I don't post anything on Facebook and leave it for twitter and word of mouth. There is literally no point to that I am just killing time until my chicken nuggets are done.
I am linking to Marleys Blog again because she has decided to co-ordinate posts for March the 2nd for a month a after February resolution thing. I won't talk about the results until that day instead I give you an update from This Post. My dear dear mother found me some weird liquid thing that contains Melatonin and it works incredibly well. Three nights in a row I have gotten more than 7 hours of sleep and and was in bed before Midnight! This meant I was able to be at work by 8 A.M. to do show prep which meant my show sounded good which makes me happy! Ya that's right I used an exclamation mark for two sentences in a row because I was yelling the whole time. That Time I wasn't. Anyways there will be a new post on Wednesday at the latest possibly Monday or Sunday if I feel super ambitious. I won't but still I can pretend I will. My nuggets are done so I'm out

The Train Don't Run Through Here No More, Poor Poor Pitiful Me
It's groundhog day. Normally I would barely notice this day any other year but this year it is slightly more important. Today I start my Groundhog Day resolution. I decided January sucked so much that it was not humanly possible to follow through with resolution plus it will be easier to complete me resolution knowing that everyone else has failed already. I am not the only person who thinks this. My friend and fellow youth parliamentarian Marley (Who also has a blog http://tshs.wordpress.com/) agrees with me and claims she is starting her resolution today as well. Starting today I will attempt to fit into my grad suit again. This is a very realistic ask since it technically does fit but its very awkward so from this point forward I will do things that should hopefully help me reach this goal. This includes walking instead of driving for short distances and taking the stairs whenever possible. I refuse to diet but I will watch what I eat and drink more water than anything else. I am also in the process of finding a gym to work out at. I will defiantly have to start by getting my cardio up before I work on anything else since I haven't had a real run in well over a year. Another one of my female friends also decided to have a weight loss challenge with me this month. She will most likely win but it will be an added incentive to attempt to be healthy.
In mere moments I will be going out to buy supplies for a strawberry shortcake and special dip. Normally this wouldn't be noteworthy but tonight I will most likely be doing one of my favorite things for the last time. Since roughly the start of October once or twice a month I have been going over to one of my friends house and baking or cooking something. Generally a desert of some kind is made as well as special dip. Unfortunately the friend I do this with is the same friend who is leaving Yorkton for bigger and better things (hopefully). Her leaving has made me realize something though. Compared to 10 years ago it is much easier to stay in touch with people. Think about it ten years ago you could call, mail a letter, or maybe send an e-mail depending on if you had a computer that also had internet access. Today I can text this friend, use Facebook in various forms, I can Skype her, possibly twitter but that's slightly unlikely, or if I wanted to be old fashioned I could call her or send an e-mail but I won't be sending any letters. This realization makes it easier to accept that she is leaving but it will still be difficult. I will just have to hang out with the little man a little more or maybe I will spend the time I would normally have spent hanging out with her working out instead. I doubt it
Is it just me or are these things getting longer everytime? I'll keep that in mind next time.

I've got a smile on my face and I've got four walls around me,
I need to find a constructive use of my free time. Seriously all I do in my free time is sleep and mess around on my computer and I cook if I feel really ambitious. This didn't use to be a problem when I was in P.A. or Saskatoon but here in Yorkton it is mainly because everyone I know is either married possibly with kids or they work when I don't. I cold try finding a hobby but nothing really jumps out at me I will most likely get back into playing guitar again. The first step will be picking up strings and such and I think old Neil (Young not Diamond) needs a proper tune up so I will be looking into that in the near future after that I will hopefully spend at least a half hour daily plucking strings and strumming chords but I don't expect anything until the first or second week of February.
I personally think New Years resolutions have some merit to them in the sense that it is good to set goals and strive to be a better person but I have never been a fan of the January 1st start date since January is arguably the most depressing month of the whole year. That is why this year I chose the equally arbitrary but possibly more symbolic Groundhog Day to start my resolution. Another reason for choosing Groundhog Day is that my resolution requires me to go to the gym and I am hoping by February a chunk of the other resolutioners have flunked out which would mean a less crowded gym. There is a chance I will change my resolution from be fit enough to play Rugby to something different but I highly doubt it unless I come up with something really good.
Tata for now.
