-Coughs-

Here, I'll set the mood with some music.

♫Sitting in my bedroom, with my keyboard guitar...♫

There we go. Okay, last week today, I had extensive facial reconstructive surgery on my jaw. This involved me going under the knife to have a section of my lower jaw shaved off, and slid back. This would get rid of the underbite. I also had my upper law slide forward somehow. I'm not sure how they did that one, since i was always under the impression that was part of the skull, but I assume magic is at play. While they were in there, they decided to pop out my two wisdom teeth that were in there from last year. How nice.

Anyways, I spent two nights at a Toronto hospital, unable to talk for most of that duration, and had to ask the nurses to go pee. Two nurses were cute, three were not. They came in and gave me water, medicine, and apple juice through a syringe. Luckily, I was hooked up to an IV so I didn't require much supplementary hydration.

When I got out, my sleep schedule was altered terribly. I went to bed at around 8pm, woke up at 12, and slept on and off again till 9am. I also couldn't have food

This is my main hate of everything thats happened. Until yesterday, I was totally dependent on a syringe for liquid delivery. And even then, they were liquids! Very unsatisfying. I miss food. I really really really miss food. Here is an example:

The other night, I was invited to spend some time with friends at Isaac's. It was a good opportunity to get out of the house for the first time since coming home, and letting friends know I was still matt-shaped and quasi-alright. We watched two Indiana Jones movies (the first and second). I regret not going home after the first, cause I almost slept during the second one due to me missing my chunk of sleep that I get at 8. Anyways, as the first one was one, Isaac brought down a pie left over from the Spud's Pi Day Celebration Bashstravaganza! He pulled it out on the ottoman, and proceeded to cut it. Slowly. Salaciously. Almost as if he was pulling off the pie's dress, and about to make sweet love to this pastry delight. Cherry filling oozed over the top. When he was done cutting, he slowly pulled it out, and put it on plates for the others to enjoy. Flakes of crust crumbled off, in an arousing array around the centerpiece that was my heart's desire. Isaac, of course, never knew he was doing this to me, he was just being naturally slow. Either that, or my perception of time actually slowed down for this event, just to make my agony all the more sweeter for the Gods That Hate Matt And Taunt Him With Pie (GTHMATHWP). This sent me into a fetal position.

I'm looking forward to 3 weeks from now, when I get total real food. My goal is to eat a giant beef and cheese burrito, as some of you already know. This would be a violation of my vegetarian morals, but announcing to you, today, here on this blog, I am giving up vegetarianism. I have learnt over the years I enjoy depriving myself of things I like. I could be a perfect catholic! In the past, I have shaved my head, went vegan, limited myself to only music in alphabetical order for 6 months, and others. This only liquid business sent me over the deep end, and from now on in i'm indulging myself in things I like.

OH Also today I got two packages: Chrononauts, and The Big Sleep's Sleep Forever album. Both worthy purchases.

Holy Wow.

Holy wow indeed guys. I am currently writing this post immediately after arriving home after going out to the movies with some of out good friends. I'm mostly here, not to review the movie or talk about the movie but, to talk about the most euphoric feeling I am having right now. First of all this feeling started, I'm pretty sure after seeing one of the best movies our group has seen in theatres yet, Be Kind, Rewind. This movie delivered laughs, good cinematography, awesome story, and also more great laughs. All around very good and the most satisfied I bet we have ever been walking out of a movie theatre together. Others may review fully if they want to.
The continuation of the euphoric level that I am currently at escalated, I believe, when it became extremely foggy on the way back home. The fog was so thick you couldn't see 10 feet in front of you. This fog made everything give off an very "luminous", as Rob called it, effect of the lights in town. After dropping Matt and then Lucas off my mission was to get out to Canning and drop off Rob. This was quite an adventure since it was so foggy but, ultimately very easy, we just went slow and whatever enjoyed the ride. It was on the way back in which my euphoria really kicked in and I started to notice it. On the way back into town I was listening to "Mercy" by Plants and Animals, a band that we had just recently seen play at the ford plant and bought their albums. Around the 3 minute mark in the song it just becomes so chill and I really started to feel the effects. As I was approaching town I realized that my mom had asked me to get gas for her, as she was to drive the car to work the next morning and it was almost at 'E'. This memory did not cause me to be pissed off or annoyed. Instead it made me happy because the only gas station that I was positive would be open was Pioneer all the way across town. I knew that I immediately was fine with that and was so up for it. I was looking forward to seeing the beautiful colors and lights of downtown with the fog. Night driving is relaxing enough for me and I love when the streets are empty, but when the streets are empty and quiet plus there is an abundance of fog to create beautiful images of light as there was tonight, I was in heaven. As I drove past the school and hit that certain part of Mercy again, as I was now listening to the song on repeat, I thought, "oh wow, what a great moment, I shall capture this on video as to capture its beauty." So I whipped out my camera and captured this:

After I had gotten the gas and was still on my high I returned home through town once again, loving every second of it.

Hello sports fans, here i am again

On to business: I am still sleep deprived from Isaac's birthday lanfest party diddly. I would try and organize everything that happened, so i WILL

1) I had to work that night, so i showed up at the party at 9. When i got there, everyone cheered cause im important and my arrival is better than anything ever. Almost immediately, however, I had to leave to pick up pizzas with Kingpin. Phase two began.

2) Kingpin and I were dispatched to New Orleans with 50 bucks to get as many pizzas as possible. We managed to get 4 larges and 1 medium (i ate most of the medium), which I think surpassed the other groups. The other groups were sent out to Marios, Titos, and Godfathers. Its funny how most of the pizza places are italian themed, except New Orleans which doesnt make sense when it comes to pizza. We waited 15 minutes there, and we weren't the first group back, but thats ok cause I was important.

3) I went to the basement and sat around with kevin, jamie, cathy, nolan, and auxillary (i was glad they all came cause its nicer with more people) and we played rock band (a reoccurring theme). This is a short phase.

4) PRESENTS TIME!!!! We all went upstairs and watched iSack receive his present (rock band, natch) everyone was happy and telling jokes. Awesome. Sortly after came CAKE TIME!!! with an intricate cake presented by Steff. How nice of everyone and how nice of cake.

I WILL POST MORE WHEN I REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!!!
