This isn't a real update, sorry to disappoint you ;)

Well, sort of.

Got up around 11, and was pleased to see that in spite of the fact that I'd overslept I hadn't got a parking ticket. Yay!

Perused LJ, then hopped into car to go have lunch with fearsclave. It is absolutely glorious out there: there's barely a cloud in the clear blue sky, and the few clouds that are present are fluffy cumulous clouds that are happy and cheerful. It's a balmy 11° out there (Celsius, for those of you who are confused), and all of Montreal is basking in the long–awaited sunshine.

Little darling, it's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear

That's definitely the prevailing sentiment, anyway.

It's very hard to be in a bad mood on a day like today. Even I'm feeling a good deal better than I was earlier this week, and I'm quite convinced it mostly has to do with the weather (and the fact that I got a decent amount of sleep for once).

We stopped by HMV, where fearsclave picked up some Type O-Negative (I think that's what they're called), and I got myself a copy of the Dixie Chicks' latest album, even though I can't afford it at all, especially since my Idiot Landlord™ has once again outdone himself by cashing two rent cheques on the same day.

Then again, I'm getting paid tomorrow (slightly reduced paycheque because I've worked less hours over the past few weeks), so I should be okay until the end of the month.

The problem with my Idiot Landlord™ is that he's perfectly within his rights to cash my cheques whenever the damned hell he pleases. I just have to suck it up and deal. Actually, I'm beginning to wonder whether I won't give him postal orders or something, that way the money will already be spent and I won't have to worry about it as much. I wonder if I can do that, or whether I'm legally obligated to give him cheques?

Worth looking into, at any rate, as this is doing nothing for my budget.


Last night was supposed to be Third Empire, but for some as yet undetermined reason blackbuffet didn't turn up, so instead I spent about five hours knitting and chatting with curtana and forthright about gaming and sundry topics. Much fun was had, and I assume we'll be rescheduling Third Empire for two weeks from now.

You all may have noticed over the past few days a good number of "fluff" posts in this LJ and may be wondering where Angsty!Phnee has got to (or rejoicing at her departure, for all I know). The explanation is simple: I was boring myself with my own whininess, so I've decided to post more fluff for a while. There's been altogether too much navel-gazing in this LJ of late, and it's time I took my head out of my ass the sand and tried to see what was out there as well as in here.

So, unless I really get into another funk I'm going to try not to wallow in self-pity for a while. :)

I never use checks. Money orders are the way to go. Much safer.
