mmmm idol

It’s that time of year again – Canadian Idol has started up. They’ve finally narrowed it down to the final 32.

The show is ending with a little montage at CTV’s fall launch party, featuring the 32 idol potentials, and last year’s top 4: Ryan Malcom, Gary Beals, Audrey de Montigny, and Billy Klippert.

The first 3 look pretty much the same (except Ryan has done something weird and mohawk-ey with his hair)

But Billy – he’s toned up a little… lost a few pounds… chiseled the jaw… I’ve just got two words for you:

TEH HOTTTES!!!!

Retail Therapy

I’m quickly discovering that with the spread of my ass came the shrinkage of my wearable wardrobe.

I’m doing my darndest to kick the flab, but in the meantime, I need something wearable, besides sweats (they aren’t exactly work appropriate).

So I hit the mall this evening, and got a pair of khakis, a sweater, hoodie style jacket, two tanks and two t-shirts – all for around $100. Pretty good if I do say so myself.

Since I’m coming off being recently unemployed, I didn’t exactly have the $100 to spend, but perhaps if I eschew eating this week I’ll kill two birds with one stone!

First Day

Ok, first off, when I came home from work today I opened the dishwasher and found a GIGANTIC wolf spider making a break for it. GROSS. I promptly squealed and slammed the dishwasher shut, and turned it on rinse. Stupid springtime in BC and the nasty spiders it brings. Well, now that we’ve got that … Continue reading First Day

No Bums Here!

I was going to post this amusing tidbit on a day when I was feeling really down about not having a job, but it looks that day is once again at least somewhat far off. So instead, I’ll post it now – my last official day of freedom (not totally official, because all the contracts … Continue reading No Bums Here!

Aah

Mucho Better. I went up to the library and walked home (a nice 3k stroll). Felt nice to get out of the house. I also finally found out the specifics of my EI claim. It’s never enough – but it’ll definitely be enough to get me by for the near (and even the not-so-near, should … Continue reading Aah
