Should we stay or should we go now. I'm at work, I'm tired. I spent the night in the lunchroom. I worked 'til midnight, and I was back here at 0500. I'm only getting 65 hours next MONTH.. That sucks (Cara and Andrew: I might have time to pick up my clothes, but it will be the quickest trip yet.). Maybe I should do another RTW trip? Anyone want to tag along? We're going to Banff on wed, 'til friday morning. Saturday morning, I'm headed to Montreal for a wedding. That should be cool. I'll see lots of friends I havn't seen in a long time. Sunday, I'll either spend the day in Montreal (expensive), or head for Toronto, or Halifax, to stay sunday night with friends. (cheap) Attn Halifax and Toronto friends, you might get a call from me this week ;) Monday, I'll be headed for Winnipeg, to check out a flight school. More on that subject another day. Monday night, I think I'll stay in Saskatoon, to visit with my brother and his family. They had a well deserved suprise, and I want to help them celebrate a bit. Tuesday, I'll be home, Kathy and I start SCUBA lessons this day. Very COOL! Should we stay or should we go now.
This last month has been the month of house guests. It is so cool having our own place, in a cool city, so that people will come and visit us. At least they say they are visiting us, but we know it is really Calgary they are coming to visit. Everyone who was here was great! If my addition is correct, I count 11 guests in the last month. Hopefully we were able to show everyone a good time.
Found a great wine. It is a late harvest Kerner, by Grey Monk. Very good. If you can find the 1998, I think it is a little better than the 2000.
Should we stay or should we go now.... (Smith, what do you think...)

Hugh Arscott is a local Saskatoon celebrity and a very funny old man. He was once a Rhinoceros Party candidate, and has a daily one-liner in the local paper. Today's quote:
If you don't come from Saskatchewan, you're not a REAL Albertan!

Wow, the outlaws are in town. Hopefully we are going to Banff tomorrow! (remind me to check the weather for tomorrow.)
What a great weekend! Genius got married. Good ole poopy pants tied the knot. It was very cool, I felt very luck to be there. It was the smallest wedding I've ever been to. It was very intimate and friendly. What a good time. The only thing that sucked, is that while Kathy and I were "getting" their car while it was parked at the hotel, they showed up and caught us! We hid behind a van, but they still saw us. Oh well, that was the first time I've ever been caught... It was still a very cool day. Thanks Greg and Cathryn. :)

Am I ever tired. I worked at 0515 this morning and I'll be here until 2110 tonite. (I did have a few hour break this afternoon, but sleeping in the car doesn't cut it.) I don't have much to say, not much I can talk about right now, there are too many things up in the air... One thing I am very excited about is that I am going to be volunteering at the Calgary Aerospace Museum as a tour guide! That should be very cool! Also, I've been offered the opportunity to fly a 1946 DeHaviland Chipmunk! That should be very very cool!

Good morning! My ADSL is hooked up! I have an update ready to go on my computer as soon as I have time I will change some stuff. It has been a long time coming, so I'll make it worth while. I am at work right now. My new job rocks! Once I get to know everyone, it will be much cooler! I am getting hungry now, I think I'll go for a bite.

I am BACK! My Telus Velocity ADSL was connected today! It all seems to be working well. I'm finished the laundry and I'm leaving the apartment for a bit, I'll write more later!

shaw cable sucks ass!!! I was right in the middle of uploading day 9 to my Hong Kong, when the guy came to disconnect. So day nine isn't complete, I'll fix that as soon as I get home, in a week and a half or so. Everybody repeat after me "shaw sucks,shaw sucks,shaw sucks,shaw sucks,shaw sucks,shaw sucks,shaw sucks"
So now that I don't have an internet connection, I for sure won't be doing any updates...
PEACE, DAMMIT!

Server change..... I've finally had enough of shaw fucking me around... they are coming to disconnect tomorrow. I've moved things again, and I'm pretty sure they will be moving again in a little while.
On the upside, I've just renewed the evjen.ca domain for two years, which cost about $60 bucks. (don't tell Kathy)
I'm on holidays. I know I promised a bunch of things to get done this week, but I'm on holidays.
Summer is great.

Weird... check this out... www.colorgenics.com/intro.html
You are striving for a life full of activity and experience and, perhaps even more, an environment where you would be able to forge a close bond with a person who can offer full emotional fulfilment.
You are feeling very disillusioned at this time and you feel that you are being left out of things. You know - or you think you know - what you want, but you seem unable to exert the effort to achieve your objectives. As a consequence, you are feeling left out and neglected. You would like to be afforded greater security and fewer problems.
Conditions are rather confusing at this time. You would like to involved with a particular person or a particular situation butyou are holding back. You find it difficult to make a decision.
Recently everything seems to have gone wrong and so you are experiencing considerable stress and anxiety due to mental conflict. A continuous case of 'Should I?' or 'Shouldn't I?'. At this particular moment in time you feel as if you have reached the end of your tether and it seems impossible to ever rectify the situation and so you have decided, perhaps quite unrealistically, to postpone making any further decisions. Disappointment and unfulfilled hopes have given rise to despondency. This conflict between hope and necessity is creating considerable pressure. Instead of resolving this by facing up to making the essential decision, you are likely to immerse yourself in the pursuit of trivialities as an escape route.
The tensions that you are trying to cope with are a result of conditions which are really beyond your control. As a consequence of this almost impossible situation and not being able to get your own way, you are subjected to frustration and almost ungovernable anger. You are trying to remedy the situation but the stress that you are experiencing is making the situation even worse. You feel so inadequate that you are not quite sure which way to turn. A good suggestion would to be to try to relieve the stress and anxiety by participating in some very active physical activity which will relieve your tension.
Anxiety and a restless antagonism, as a result of unfulfilled emotional needs, has resulted in considerable stress. You are trying to overcome this by working and playing extremely hard - but at all times you have your future in mind. You are a worker and as a result of your inherent enthusiasm you cannot fail.

Today I am in Whitehorse, in the Yukon! Mike, my old instructor is in town too. What a great place, today is very sunny, but a little cool. The folks at the airport here are great, they've given us the use of their truck for the night. Yeehaw, sunday night in Whitehorse, I'm sure we can find trouble if we look hard enough. Or maybe not.. :)

Here we go, the crazyness has begun. I am no longer a "hangar attendant", I am kinda in limbo between now and when I return to Saskatoon as a CSA. In the interim, I am very busy working for the training department again. I am so excited, this time I get to go to Whitehorse! I love this training job, there is just enough office time, to enjoy the office, and there is enough on the road time to enjoy being on the road, and not get sick of either one! I love it! Stay tuned to this spot, because I can write to this space easily from anywhere on the planet.... Whitehorse, Calgary, Saskatoon, Hong Kong....
Peace, Love, Chocolate!
