I take my coffee and tea black, so venturing out into the world to fancy-pants drinks I was apprehensive.
The Green Tea Latte I had was horribly sweet. I’ll be back to black coffee and leave these lattes to those with better resolve.

In my annual attempt to watch all the major nominees prior to the Academy Awards being doled out, Ty and I watched Michael Clayton last night. I will preface this by saying that the trailer was uninspiring and I had very little interest in this movie until it received 7 nominations. SEVEN!! Also, although I like George Clooney, I’ve never really understood the legions of Clooney-obsessed fans out there. Anyway, in this film he is pure charisma and is absolutely magnetic. The story is intriguing and with very little “action” it managed to keep us glued to the screen. Great movie – Definitely not as strong as No Country for Old Men, but still very good.
Also, currently watching High Fidelity. Loving it and feel it would be a great double feature with one of my all time favourites – Empire Records. All part of my secret desire to work in a record store.
I may be addicted to the discomfort CrossFit affords me.
I followed up my 305# deadlift with 5 rounds of:
- 15 75# Sumo High Pulls
- 20 24inch box jump
- 25 20# Ball Slams
in 15:02.
It burns.

I’ve finally had to face facts, I’m a casual gamer. There I said it. No longer do I have the time to grind through an RPG or complete 100% of any other game.
I’d like to call myself a hardcore casual gamer though, if I’m going to sit down for 15-30 minutes I’d like to play a game that is hard enough to be challenging.

Dumpling House, Chinatown Toronto, Feb. 9, 2008. No service, no atmosphere. Just a big plate of dumplings for six bucks.
Tyler’s been bugging me to write a blog. A lot. It’s really easy for him to do, since he sits right behind me at work. In truth, I do have a few things to write about. I suppose sometimes it’s good to have something give you a little push, even if that something is an angry man yelling obscenities over your cubicle wall.
You guys are cubicle neighbours? Jesus. It’s 111 Westwood all over again, without the psycho in the room off the kitchen and the narcisistic jackass with mirrors on his wall.
haha that mirror wall was classy. and by classy, i mean porny.

I like George Clooney more and more with every movie I see him in.

Check out “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind”, if you haven’t already, it’s Clooney’s directorial debut, and he also has a small role in it. Also, how have you gone this long without seeing High Fidelity? That’s a Cosby sweater. A Coooossssby sweater.

High Fidelity is the greatest movie.
“There’s no way your daughter likes that song….oh wait. Is she in a coma?”
or
“Do we look like the kind of store that has ‘I just called to say I love you?’ Go to the mall.”
There’s an awesome cut scene in that movie where some jaded divorcee, played by Beverly D’Angelo, calls John Cusack to her house cause she’s selling off all her ex-husbands super rare vinyls and Cusack turns her down cause he couldn’t do that to someone like him.
