2. I am so. Tired. Seriously, you have no idea. I'm just counting down, now, to the point in the year where my immune system goes "Yeah, I don't think so," and takes us off the line for two days. This happens, or historically has happened like clockwork, every year since I graduated high school - typically it happens in September, but it didn't, so I've been waiting, waiting... possibly being out of school for two years messed with the wiring?
3. Still no loans. Going to kill someone. Also being screwed but good by MSP, which is demanding I pay fifty bucks a month for the medical insurance I am required by law to have, and which co-incidentally covers nothing but emergencies and doctors' visits (not prescriptions, not girly-things, not dental visits of any kind), even though I am having to shell out a hundred bucks a month on extended private insurance so I can go to the dentist in November. And I'm still paying on top of that! Socialised health care, my ass. I keep trying to get ahold of the our MLA to explain the logical discrepancy between "required by law to participate in the program" and "being charged money to participate in the program, especially when it doesn't actually COVER ANYTHING", but have as yet had no luck with anything but his voice mail.
4. However! The Happyfest, Team-Sheppard-Goes-To-The-Olympics story is now at almost 4,000 words. Which is, yay? It may not even balloon out to 20k (
5.
Still no sign of there ever being a BC Film Industry Halloween Haunt again, shich makes me very, very sad. There are many other delightful Samhain-themed activities in Vancouver, though, and among them is the Haunted Trolley Tour. (
6. Back to work. Wednesday's my last day! Which is awesome! Assuming my loans ever come through! Otherwise I'll starve! Hooray! You evil, money-grubbing bastards!
7. Er. That took a bit of a left turn, there. Oops. :)
