You have a favorite actor or actress, or singer or whatever, and they have the perfect relationship, and you look at them and think to yourself "see, there really is true love and if they can do it in that fishbowl of a world, I certainly can?"
And you know how upset and betrayed and let down you feel when they have such a volatile car wreck of a break up, and ALL the nastiness just kinda washes up on the beach?
Yea. Like that.

And I am by myself- everybody has already gone home for the night, I get to close since I am the official "night person" around here.
"Since you're so fond of vampires, you won't mind being here late, will you?"
No, and being a bartender don't hurt any either...lol
I just had a young lady, replete with leopard skin coat and a tattoo on her right boob (yes her shirt was that low, and yes, I looked.....so there...) come in and ask me about how we worked. I gave her the quick version, since her bus was coming, and one of our leaflets, and off she went.
I just now looked up, and she had dug a piece of paper out of her purse, and she was peering in the window at the piece she wanted to do and busily sketching away, propped up against the building.
I love my job...lol
Serbian village puts out vampire warning, encourages residents to stock up on garlic16:11 Nov 27 2012

If western Serbia smells a little garlicky these days, locals will tell you it's for good cause.
Oddity Central reports that villagers in Zarozje are stocking up on cloves of the pungent bulbs due to fears that Sava Savanovic, one of the area's most fearsome vampires, has resumed his blood-sucking activities after centuries-long slumber.
We're not talking about love-struck vampires who sparkle in the sun either. Eastern Europe has established itself as Vampire Ground Zero when it comes to fanged folklore and Serbia's Savanovic is a particularly nasty fellow.
Legend has it he would kill and drink the blood of the peasants who came to grind their grain at his watermill on the Rogačica river.
A local family bought the building in the 1950s and re-opened it as a profitable tourist attraction. But they were so terrified by what may be lurking within that they refused to go near it — even to perform repairs.
Recent trouble began when the old mill collapsed due to decades of neglect.
Now that the mill lies in a pile of rotted wood, everyone is terrified. Particularly since mayor Miodrag Vujetic told Orange UK there had been numerous reports of "strange growls, neither animal nor human" coming from the mill, along with sightings of a "dark tall individual" standing next to the mill in the "dead of night."
"People are worried, everybody knows the legend of this vampire and the thought that he is now homeless and looking for somewhere else and possibly other victims is terrifying people. We are all frightened," Vujetic said.
And thanks to the wintery time of year, repairs will have to wait until spring. So to prepare citizens, city council has put out an official vampire warning and encouraged residents to fill their every room of their homes with garlic and holy crosses.

Scott's sister, Kristy, two of her friends, Diane (my friend) and I decided to hop aboard and go see the final Twilight movie last night after I got off work.
Yeah, I know- but what the hell, it was good popcorn.
While Diane and I are standing in line, and I am talking to Kareena, Kristy's friend, when Diane asked Kareena whether she was Team Edward or Team Jacob.....
True to form, I pop up with the standard answer:
"Well, she is choosing between necrophilia or bestiality, so what does the average human do?"
The teenaged boy in front of me in line promptly broke up, then abruptly went silent when his teenaged girlfriend punched him.
However, he gave me the thumbs up behind her back while she was reaching for her medium coke in the commemorative Twilight cup.
And, she made damn sure that they sat hell and gone on the other side of the theater from me when she realized we were going to see the same movie...lol
What can I say. I'm just a smartass living the dream in Canada...lol

Yesterday was my day off, and since it will be my last until next Tuesday, with a 12 hour day on Saturday, I fully intended to enjoy it, get some things done, and relax.
The weather?
We had thunder, lightning, high winds, heavy rain, and hail.
sunday is supposed to be clear and dry, just in time for Scott to replace the side fence that is caving in, just before it is supposed to snow on Tuesday....
Welcome to Canada....lol

Some birds like ducks, geese, and other waterfowl can be seen sleeping on or near their roosting pond, propped up on one leg, positioned in a way that the body is balanced without much additional muscle activity. To avoid predators, most ducks often seen sleeping on the water, with their head cranked around backwards and nestled into their feathers, to keep their bill warm.
Like the old adage, if you think you're in danger, you should sleep with one eye open, ducks also have a tendency of sleeping in a row in which the ducks on both ends sleep with one eye open, watching out for any dangers that lurk.

12. Indiana a.k.a Vampire Central
Forget about dinner and a movie. If you eat garlic in Indiana, don’t leave the hotel for at least four hours. If you head out to catch a streetcar, theatre performance or a movie within four hours of consuming garlic, you could be entertaining a fine.

The doors are finally open, and I am an official saleperson/pottery instructor/glass cutter.
Feels good to say that after coming home smurf blue for so long...lol
Today, Melissa's mother came in to do some painting. She's been in and out, painting models for the store, and alot of fun to talk to as well. Plus Melissa's dad has been helping out alot with fixing, putting stuff up and in general just being our resident handyman.
Today, Pat was working on a platter that she had carefully painted in the design of a woodcut turkey. It was lovely, and today she was adding in the color for it. I was helping out where I could, getting her whatever she needed, and taking care of customers when I wasn't cutting up glass.
This young lady with her daughter walked in and were looking around. The kid wandered up to Pat, and asked what she was doing. Pat showed her the platter, told her she was painting a turkey. The little girl asked her why.
..........0-o
Pat: "Because I'll have a platter with a turkey on it to serve my Christmas turkey on, so I guess I'll have a little turkey on turkey action"
Yes, I did. I absolutely went there, and came back to get a coke and a bag of chips, and then went back again.
Then I went outside, locked myself in my car, and fell apart.
Lord help us all.......

I figured I would let everybody know at one time...lol
Yes, we have been having earthquakes up here, at about the same time as the eastern seaboard has been having it's bizarre frankenstorms.
The latest one was yesterday, off Tofini on Vancouver island. Which moves it closer than the first three, which were up the coast a ways by Haaida Gwai.
No, we here in Port Coquitlam haven't felt much of anything. Everything is fine here so far. Everytime Mother Nature shrugs her shoulders out her, talk of "the big one" pops up, but so far nothing major is happening here.
Don't worry- we're good.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the people back east who are having more than their share of crap.
And I'm sorry Rat didn't get her snow....lol
The things I do01:18 Nov 03 2012

I swear.....
Melissa called in an order to a ceramic supply place, just to pick up some odds and ends we need to flesh out the retail part of things.
Still can't open, because thanks to the leasing manager not doing what he should have, and the building engineer not doing what HE was supposed to do, we are still waiting for the business license. And waiting...
And waiting.....
In the meantime, we have added to the roster of employees. We now have:
Tricia- lots of fun, but I swear to GAWD, she makes me sound like a mute. That woman gets out of the car talking in the morning.
Natasha-little sprite of a thang, with a totally melodic laugh which peals out everytime I spit out another southern-ism.
Sara-a little pretentious for my taste, but she works hard, and that helps me out alot.
So today, I had to trek out to Surrey, which was a good 45 minute drive from where I was, to go pick up this order for Melissa. I get there, and I shit you not, the business next to them in the business park?
Penetron.
The amount of smartassery that leaped to my mind at this would absolutely blow up this hard drive werew I to try and write them all down.
Ya'll have at it...
