Jadevyonna Lewis?! / Kylla Mann "Kill A Man" and Gunnar Bond GUNS are SIBLINGS?!

Fri, 08 May 2020 01:51:50 GMT

There was a Shaw outage last night when I was going to bed anyway, and I'm surprised there haven't been more because everyone is online (more) nowadays. I also read that Red Cat Records on Main will be closing permanently due to the coronavirus - HA! JIMMY NEVER GOT TO SEE IT!

From Julie M. and JUDGE JUDY: Jadevyonna Lewis?! That could be easily misread as JADEY VYONNA Lewis... JADE VYONNA?!

From Julie M. and DR. PHIL: Teresa is obviously fine, but KYLLA MANN?! Definitely KILL A MAN! Should have thought that one through before birth or marriage...

From Julie M. and DR. PHIL: Gunnar Bond?! It's a fine name for someone European, but not for a non-Swedish person! Wait, GUNNAR and KYLLA are siblings?! Geez! GUNS AND KILLING THEME!

Starfrit jar opener, face masks, Microban, automated crosswalks, buckle barriers

Tue, 21 Apr 2020 01:13:21 GMT

I went out at 11:55 to go to Canadian Tire so I could get another Starfrit jar opener (Aisle 54 - had to get an employee to help me grab it) and 20 face masks for $20. I always overshoot the 410 station - I SHOULD GET OFF AT ABERDEEN, NOT HAZELBRIDGE! I texted Barry about payday, and he called me when I was outside Canadian Tire - yeah, I thought I'd have to do it myself again! Then I peeked inside Yaohan - there was a lineup either for Osaka Supermarket or a temperature check service. My last stop was London Drugs: All Clean Natural lemon-mint spray hand sanitizer x2 (no limit), Scrubbing Bubbles, London Naturals orange cleaner, NEW Microban 24-Hour bathroom spray x2 in Fresh and Citrus scents, and portable Wet Ones x2. Got home at 2:10 on a 407, too.

Microban 24-Hour Fresh bathroom disinfectant spray!

Crazy discombobulated poop! / Hand Job Nails and Spa?! Long Poo Gas Supplies?!

Thu, 14 Nov 2019 21:20:19 GMT

I went to the Life Labs next door to get some blood and urine tests done. Failed at the pee test, unfortunately. Then I went across the street where someone actually drove onto the concrete parking barrier! "HOW DO YOU DO THAT?!" I said to a nearby dude, who had seen WORSE! It's broad daylight, people! Got home and called Chrystal to make our usual December dinner plans, but it would have to be fairly early since I'm not sure when I'm going to Ontario. We settled on Friday, December 6 at the usual location at 7:30.

From Julie: Crazy Discombobulated Poop!

Myronisha, Auri'Noel, Daryell as Darryl's sister, baby girl Anakin, Makayla?!

Sun, 19 May 2019 04:54:27 GMT

I had a chocolate muffin, coffee, and pear slices as breakfast before Deb dropped me off near Brighouse Station. The one-week followup went pretty well at the eye clinic: NO MORE GLASSES FOR NOW! I decided to get a NEW McDonalds Chocolate Nanaimo Bar McFlurry at the Broadway McDonalds, but that was very disappointing... YUCKY coconut flakes! Then I went back to Deb and Dylan's on a 407, but checked out the nearby M and M Meat Shops since I'm rarely out this way: Cilantro and Lime basmati rice, Brown Basmati and Wild Rice, and Long Grain White Rice in microwaveable packages. I saw some BAD SPELLING at the Chateau Quality Drycleaners: HOW DO YOU MISSPELL "COMFORTERS"?!

Eventually, I had fried rice with chicken and sriracha sauce for flavor as a real lunch. Vicky, Jason, baby Lucas, Pastor Dan, and white Eric all came over tonight for dinner: Pizza Hut Supreme pizza x2, quinoa salad, Build Your Own Taco from Costco, Welch's white grape juice, boxed Pinot Grigio wine, French bread, prosciutto, coffee, tea, cantaloupes, and Two Bite Brownies! We talked about small group memories, moving a lot, kids picking up things quickly, FLINCH the show, the swearing Roomba, the Victoria Day long weekend, Christon's wedding being the same day as Mike Kwan's (August 31), remembering wedding anniversaries, Sharon, and church stuff.

Eric agreed to give me a ride home, which we reached at 9:40. He definitely helped me wheel my stuff into my place! When I left Deb and Dylan's, Deb gave me some frozen food because Dylan was thinking of me. Walmart's Your Fresh Market shepherd's pie and chicken Parmesan are good, but technically expired since the expiry date is May 7. Guess I'll have to eat them both soon-ish!

From Julie: Myronisha is a female version of Myron now?!

( Names, Chocolate Nanaimo Bar McFlurry, bad COMFORTERS spelling, Cilantro and Lime basmati rice, Brown basmati and wild rice, long grain white rice, Supreme Lovers Pizza Hut, Two-Bite Brownies, shepherd's pie, and chicken Parmesan! )

10 Commonly Misunderstood Words in English! / Kalan is for a girl?!

Wed, 08 May 2019 04:38:40 GMT

My parents are on a cruise and didn't let me know, so I wasted my time calling them to get their voicemail multiple times yesterday! Then Dad emailed me to say that they could call me from the shore at 8:30, but then emailed me again at 8 to say that they were still on the ship. Since I don't want to deal with stressful and inconvenient phone calls in the morning when I'm trying to shower and get out the door, I just PMed Brian about it instead since Paulo said he could be good for this sort of thing. To be fair, we had discussed it yesterday just in case. Thank goodness for friends since he agreed to do this for me! He doesn't even have to stay for the entire four hours! I also got to text Pothead Mike for the first time, so YAY! (and talked to Jon via FB Messenger for a bit about the surgery and other things)

From Grammar.net: 10 commonly misunderstood words in English! Enormity, nonplussed, bemused, redundant, plethora, unique, fulsome, noisome, ironic, and literally.

From Julie M. and DR. PHIL: Kalan is a girl's name?!

From Julie: TooReal?! That's not a name for your baby...

Gevaro Nepomuceno?!

From Julie: Jaccob?! What's with the bad spelling?!

From Julie and her friend: THE BELCHING DRAGON is a Chinese restaurant, and it has a very Engrish menu!

Chewin' McGregor / Barrier, Mr. Z, unpitied fools, and unchallenged jibba-jabba!

Sat, 13 Jan 2018 02:44:53 GMT

COFFEE TIME! I finally got a Christmas card from Kitty (bornwitch) in the mail today, so that was good! The Canucks played Columbus at 4 today, and finally won a game in 2018.... JAKE INTO THE EMPTY NET FOR A 5-2 WIN! I plan to shower later, too.

Julie wanted to share an 8Memes video with me in Facebook chat last night. (When you want to sleep, and your brain just goes SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS...) When I saw it, the same video was at the top of my Facebook feed! QUIRKY COINCIDENCE! :D

From Julie: Chewin' McGregor!

With Mr. Z's help, the FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF party finally makes it to the Barrier Tower and defeats Yog-Sothoth. In the aftermath, Mr. Z says, "Mr. Z can't die here! Fools will go unpitied and jibba-jabba will go unchallenged!" Definitely a Mr. T persona there!

FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Bestiary, #1-312!

Thu, 19 Oct 2017 03:52:44 GMT

FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Bestiary!

THIS ENTRY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE NON-ALIGNED TAGS.

This is the complete bestiary for FINAL FANTASY 5 SPOOF, and all screenshots are from my own playthrough. I'd like to say that this GameFAQs bestiary document helped me a lot; thank you! (as did this one, for more precise directions in certain places) Also, this walkthrough helped me a lot, too! Actually, I was tired of suffering through emulator slowness and game glitches x8, so input a code for a 100% complete Bestiary. These maps will help, since the world map DOESN'T FUCKING WORK IN THIS GAME!

This is a good RPG Classics page for Pro Action Replay codes!

CHECK THE MAP WITH THE Y BUTTON, NOT THE R BUTTON!

Fire-Powered Ship puzzle directions.

Notes to self: Activate the All Characters Have All Abilities code, and then TAKE IT OFF, or else the game will get incredibly frustratingly SLOW. Also, take all codes off before going to the Big Bridge, or attempting to find the Phantom Village! VISHNU VEST EQUIPMENT! Speaking of equipment, EQUIP KRILE WHEN SHE JOINS THE PARTY AFTER GALUF'S DEATH! As far as codes go, the "have 99 of all items" code makes the game freeze and have sound issues!

After much frustration over three hours, I managed to defeat Omega by using the power of Mirage Vests (IMAGE STATUS) / Coral Rings (fire protection), and a pre-emptive strike! I used it to power up my blades with Thundaga Spellblade, then used Rapid-Fire on Faris... I think it was a fluke!

Also, to reset the breath timer in the sunken tower of Walse, climb up the fourth floor vine to get to that chest! I finally actually defeated Famed Mimic Gogo at the bottom of the sunken Tower of Walse by using the Dragoon / Dual-Wield x4 strategy! It was pretty tricky since I wasn't sure that all my characters would survive at least five Meteor attacks, but two of them did! Got garbled text as part of the bugged fight, too... "Dragged into another dimension! Odin: All right, that's far enough! Turning to stone... Can't escape! Countdown to Pestilence... 4 KO'd! Countdown to Eruption... 5 KO'd! Level halved! KO'd!":D

To get the Drakenvale Golem in the Bestiary, defeat the dragons first and THEN defend until he thanks you!

Stick "READ AHEAD" on a character other than Lenna! To prevent having to input all the codes over and over again, SAVE / remove all codes / then close and reopen the emulator! They should all still be there!

For the Moogle in the Forest of Moore to move after the trees have been set on fire by Tzepish, save the game in the cave and then reset. The creature should NOT be blocking the entrance.

Airship in World 3: It's just above Surgate Castle, east of the Pyramid.

DO NOT SET ANY "No Random Encounters" CODE! IT WILL GLITCH OUT THE GAME! (submarine / world map won't work, and there WILL be no random encounters)

TRY DEFEATING NEO SHINRYU FIRST BEFORE OMEGA MK. II - or else you can't get out of the room for some reason! (the exit door SHOULD be open, but is shut tight instead!)

Charismatic! / A bunch of funny FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Ability descriptions!

Tue, 03 Oct 2017 23:23:46 GMT

THIS ENTRY IS ALLOWED TO HAVE NON-ALIGNED TAGS.

I called Chrystal at work at 12:30 - to my surprise, she was on reception duty! We made plans for her to treat me to a belated birthday dinner on Friday the 13th; we'll meet at 7-ish at the London Drugs near Broadway Station. Sounds good to me!

"You Are Not Charismatic"

You are not a born performer, and there's a good chance that you are more reserved than most people.
What you lack in charisma, you more than make up for in humility and honesty. You are content with who you are.

You are not big on seeking the spotlight. You usually prefer spending time alone to shining in a crowd.
The kind of socialization you crave tends to be one on one, deep, and authentic. You see beneath the surface.

Are You Charismatic?

Blogthings: 100's of Fun, Free Quizzes!

A bunch of funny FINAL FANTASY V SPOOF Ability descriptions!

Brawl: Break stools and beer bottles over people's heads. Brawler Level 2 Ability.

Absorb: Steal HP and MP instead of TVs and bicycles. Dragoon Level 2 Ability.

Equip Lances: You can equip lances... and Lance-A-Lot. Dragoon Level 3 Ability.

White Eric's 36th birthday! / Passive-aggressive Facebook posting! / Body wash!

Mon, 04 Sep 2017 06:04:46 GMT

After COFFEE TIME, I left at 4:40 to get to Jeremy's for white Eric's birthday dinner in the HOT weather! I managed to get a 99 bus that dropped me right in front of Kingsgate Mall, but the transit security officer said that I should wait two seconds for the bus to stop. Yeah, I know that, but you're directly in my way! I bought a Western Family Swiss 72% dark chocolate bar for Eric (because anything from home would probably have MELTED on the way to Jeremy's), some on-sale Vancouver Only lemon dish detergent, a Lever 2000 Pure Rain body wash (which seems more easily openable right now, so I'm using it immediately), and some Old Spice Denali body wash at Buy-Low for the Gwei Lo before cutting through Dude Chilling Park to get to Jeremy's. To my mild surprise, dinner was already in progress after Eric joked about whether I really wanted to come in. No, I want to sweat my ass off all evening instead! I gave Eric his birthday card and chocolate bar, and told him that Steph said hi and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, too!

Ayler and Hiero were there, and acknowledged my presence by saying that I was sitting diagonally from them. We had fish tacos, fish sauce, coleslaw, a simple tomato salad, and hibiscus juice. It was fine, and it was only $8 for me. Randal was there, but I barely acknowledged him. I saw white Eric #2, which was a surprise. I played for a bit with Hiero, who wanted to steer the blue car through "traffic" and went over the barrier of Christon's foot. We watched Japanese babymetal music videos by きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ (thanks to Stanley - who's getting married on November 18), some Albert Ayler, and even a bit of a TedTalk thanks to Hiero pressing a bunch of computer keys. Ayler said that he can walk to kindergarten some of the days, which makes sense!

The kids went home early after excitedly watering the plants. Jeremy asked me if I knew what a literal douche (the stuff which is sold in stores) was when I got back from the bathroom - I said that Christon would have to look it up himself! Then we watched Kendrick Lamar (thanks to Stanley) and Tyler the Creator before Jon thought we could all go to Twelve Kings for a pint. Eric and I just opted to go home afterwards, which was great for me and my alone time! I got home at 8:15 after discussing Whitney Houston / Erykah Badu / my tentative sushi plans with Eric.

From Julie: I know you're upset. Why don't you post something passive-aggressive on Facebook and not explain the situation. That usually helps.

Western Family Swiss 72% dark chocolate bar!

Lever 2000 Pure Rain body wash! (more easily openable for now?)

Lever 2000 Citrus Fresh grapefruit and orange body wash!

Old Spice Denali body wash!

Vancouver Only lemon dish detergent!
