Mr Brennan: Alright Simon, I'm pulling you out of your co-op at the Saint Vincent De Paul because I can make up a bullshitty excuse for it along the lines of "They fired you." Even though they told you that they only let you go because I told them the semester was ending a month earlier than it actually does. You're also starting your new co-op at an electrician's that your friend Jordan will tell you is very shady and has broken some laws.

Me: Okay, I'm starting somewhere completely...

I was given about 30$ for Christmas from a friend while visiting London Ontario. During this visit I went to a collectibles shop called "Heroes" that actually used to be here in Belleville according to a friend of mine.

Anyway, They had a 25% off deal on all toys in the store, which fucking rocked my socks. After wandering around staring at old Go Bots and other shit I came across this guy:

fuck that guy

What an awesome movie. Seriously. I saw it in RealD with some friends and...wow. It was honestly just some amazing ass shit. It was eight different flavours of amazing watchability. About twenty minutes in, you totally lose yourself in this fanastical world. Horses have six legs. Pterodactyl dragon fuckers swoop around like goddamn moses on a skateboard. It was incredible. It was beautiful. There was never a single point where I wasn't entertained on some level. It's the first movie in a while that...

I built these out of various pieces of scrap lying around the bench at my workshop at Saint Vincent De Paul. Tomorrow's my last day.
First up: Photo Canister Monster.

I've made a ton of these, but this guy is probably my favorite.

Just figured I'd throw this out here. Not expecting any of you to actually want any, but hey, any excuse.

In the past 5 Months I've collected upwards from 60 Transformers toys. Some of these I want to keep, whether it be for display or just to play with on my desk, but others simply eat an astonishing amount of room and look really untidy in my royal shithole of a room.

They gather dust like nobodies business because of my and I feel incredibly awkward having to move...

I spent about an hour and a half shoveling the driveway, sidewalk and porch today. Easy 20 dollars.

It's weird, last year we got the first Snowstorm on October 23rd, and this year we got it on December 1st. Then nothing for about a week, and BOOM, huge that shitty, heavy and wet snow. I didn't have to go to co-op, though. I woke up at 8:25, and even if I'd left right then, I'dve been late. Normally being late wouldn't bother me, but my Co-op teacher has instigated a rule where if...

So I went to work, and then came home yesterday, but OH NO ONE OF THE RECYCLING BINS IS DOWN THE STREET BETTER GO GET IT

and it was fucking smashed, in a 'not the wind' kind of way, and my dad could've brought it in during the day but he didn't then he listened to fucking tv at like max volume and I went to jordans and watched these stupid fucking youtube videos that were not funny and not entertaining at all and he was like "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" and I couldn't laugh, and...

Goddammit.

My parents are separating. So now my dad's being a childish fuck and has essentially lost interest in working in any sense, leaving my mom shackled with finance issues until the separation is concluded. He's also leaving Dating websites open on his computer. It's embarrassing. What's wrong with him? Why can't he take this like a man?

He acts all nice to me and then throws a big hissy fit over the most trivial things, and constantly mouths off with stupid shit....

I went to London Ontario for the weekend. Had a pretty good time, and found an old Earthworm Jim toy at some gypsy kingdom.

However, I also found this guy at a Zellers:

As you can see, it's a Transformer. A Transformer that turns into...
