The Briar Patch

2012 started out exactly how 2011 ended. Even what I did weekly was pretty much the same. It was early on though something big happened, not even to me but I was happy for it. Frenchman asked Amazing to be his wife! Typical guy fashion though. He did it on a Sunday morning I believe, then a few hours later he comes over and we go play shinny. Him and Bud have a drink after at my place then go home. No mention of anything. Next day at work one of the ladies comes over to me all excited and says aren't you happy for Frenchman. I asked why? She said well he is your friend you would think you would know he is getting married. WTF! SO I go looking for him and asked if the lady was crazy. The Frenchman he laughs and say oh ya that's true I did ask her yesterday. But he forgot to tell me! Anyways that was cool. I think it was pretty quick after that we all got our invites. They were gettin hitched in Mexico the next year. Of course the answer is hellz ya I am coming. All our friends i...

I think that I am pretty open minded for a Good Old Northern Alberta Boy( Or have gotten much better in the last decade). 90 percent of the time I am willing to at least try another to see anothers prospective. I did try and give the NDP a chance, I dislike them now based on the last two years. I didn't go all Trump tarded, for me most things need dealt with in the middle ground. Too far either way never seems to work..... But here we are, some dim witted work out video making mother fucker goes and gets my hillbilly side up. Here is a person born into money, who never had to work a day in her life. Unlike the 1000's of people who go to camps to work long days to support a family. Maybe if she hadn't been born with a silver spoon, she might not be so damn mouthy. Next she is made of PLASTIC! Is she aware of what is used to make plastic and in essence to make her??!! Like this makes me insane, these Hollywood "stars" (Lets be honest this old bitch ain't be re...

DISNEY!! Of all the challenges this one is easiest to write. Cause I know exactly what I am looking forward to. The return to Disneyland. Come this fall I will be going back for a second time. I am 35 and cant wait to go!!! I first went last year, 33 and thinking I was heading to a gloried K-days where I might see some characters. Damn was I wrong! We had booked 4 days and I thought it would be too much. How long can you stay in the Kingdom a mouse built?? I will never ever doubt you again Mickey. First off I love Cali. And I love L.A. Just landing at LAX gets me pumped. Anytime I get to fly anywhere I am happy! Pac said it. I love L.A It is the happiest place on Earth. The customer service is the best in the world,the employees work their hardest to make it that way. One night my fiance had a blister on her foot. A park worker went and found her a band aid. When she said she was going to do that I didn't actually think she would be back! Any place with that great of custom...

Friday, the final day and back to Disneyland. I didn’t think I would become a stickler but I am. I do think that they should be called what they are Disney and Cali. I mean we had hopper passes but never did hop. So really you can go to Cali and never step in Disneyland. But that isn’t really important. So I don’t know if it was cause it was Friday but the bus was packed. The whole thing is to have two buses on one line so people aren’t waiting. So stagger them!!! It drove me mental the whole time that both buses ran side by side. Here is another side rant. If you work at Disney be fucking happy. Some people are just crabby and if that’s you don’t work at Disney. This comes from a ticket taker not validating my pass right. It did some strange ding which my girlfriend noticed. I said don’t worry no one will let you in without it being right. Turns out I was wrong. My girlfriends was valid and I wasn’t. So even though this ticket taker knew my shit wasn’t valid she let us through. D...

So we started off Thursday with a buffet again. I gotta say, starting the day off with custom omelette's is the way to go. The fruit really wasn’t all that great considering we are in Cali but oh well. So it was cold. I have heard the term June gloom when you cant see the sun and we were getting it. We tried to go on Toy story mania again but it was crazy busy so we played some games. Won a couple small stuffies. Unlike a real carnival I guess you cant upgrade! Then we went to soaring over California. The line was half an hour, which wasn’t bad. Listening to the trailer park folk behind me was mind numbingly painful though. Seriously, a chunky white dude in line trying to teach his 5 year old boxing combos. Oh ya and tattoos and a tank top. Like seriously wtf. My personal fav was him whining about how season pass holders don’t get treated well enough. Ya they should get treated well but I think a huge chunk of Disney's revenue comes from suckers like us who come down and...

Finally in the air. We got up at 4 AM which is fucking crazy but when you look at the big goal of getting to Disney it ain't that bad. Still hard though. Almost everything was packed so didn’t really have to do anything except shower n coffee. I dis the Henday constantly cause every time I take it, its backed up but today at 5 AM is was clear. Was shocked from St Albert to the EIA was 35 minutes. Some night hockey rinks take longer to get to. Customs is getting crazy, this new thing were they take your pic to get into the states is crazy. Like I am showing you my passport and filling out a declaration so why do I need to do it twice. Also maybe it is my hillbilly side but I hate when people who ain't great at English are the agents. On the bright side I didn’t get an anal probe. On the down side I didn’t get to go in the x ray machine. And unlike last time no one dropped a joint in front of security. I cant eat that early so even though we had a breakfast at Wings whic...
