But not everyone is nice.
Left my winter coat on the back of my chair once at the university. It was a shitty coat. I was gone for literally less than two minutes. Guess what? Stolen. No one ever turned it into the lost and found, either. I've "lost" plenty of other stuff there as well that people just keep, including my best moonstone pendulum. >
 Fell out of my pocket while I was napping in the commons.
I once returned a big fat travel wallet to a chick who dropped it from her bag on a crowded path. That felt pretty good, especially since she probably had her passport and all of her important documents in it.
Ah, "losing" stuff. Losing that nice mechanical pencil I got for my birthday in the chemistry lecture hall pissed me off quite a bit.
Losing a good pen/pencil in university? Just plain hell. I hate, absolutely HATE, losing that good solid pen you've been for like a month.
sold my computer.
guy gave me 50 more than i asked for some reason, so i walked away with $350.
hollah hollah get dollahs.
I got my shoes for work yesterday, and paid today. Gotta go fight with the bank though over some insufficient fund fees, which will be kinda lame... but I'll be ok, since it's never happened before. And gonna chill tomorrow night with a buddy and wander Short North.
Also having two server global awards is pretty sweet. (Forward Glorious Cart! At 221 escorts, and Natascha's Friend, with around 1100 kills now.)
Had a phenomenal day the Metro Toronto Zoo alongside two very dear friends from WoW. The day was made even more spectacular when my friend, who has been stranded in Canada since the INS fucked her and her husband(who is also my BFF) over last New Years, got a phone call: She is finally going home. Even better was getting back into Hamilton and stopping off at my favourite pub for a couple wobbly pops, and allowed myself to be absorbed into the scene; had a little zen moment about how great it feels to radiate serenity and happiness, and to have people notice. Ahhhhhhhhhhh.... *POSITIVE ENERGY, POWER UP!*

The second one however, the dude who owned it was a colossal dick. He would always yell at my friends and I for being too loud at like 2 pm in the afternoon, always got into yelling matches with my father over retarded stuff and always sped down our road at 120 km/h (Almost hit me 3 or 4 times). So, you know what I did when I found his wallet with $300? I took the money, cut the wallet in half, threw one half in his backyard (with the useless cards) and gave the other half to my friend to get rid of it.
Did I feel bad bout it? No, fucker deserved it.
sounds like that guy got raped, nj

The London Tap House, @Main/John
Went to my brother's wedding today. Was the best man. At the wedding party, danced with a really hot blonde for a couple of hours, and she got quite tipsy in the evening. Got her to say goodbye to me three times with a long hug, a "I'm really glad I met you and you were a really good date." And a nice kiss. It was also one of the bridesmaids.Â
Getting set to head off to FanExpo 2010 this morning.
Met Scotty G! It was fun, he stayed with us for the night. Too bad he couldn't stay longer so we could show him around the city!

Yup! Pretty cool guy, it was fun although it was a short meeting.
jamming yesterday, playing cover tunes like I like to do, trying to go from bo weevil to cannon, improvised a riff to transition, and accidently....wrote a song.
Today, jamming again, and accidentally wrote another.
write that shit down, son, you've got a second career right there in your hands.
