The laminate has ended

The conclusion of laminate installation has ended. Overall, it wasn't that bad except for the fact that working with my father drove my nuts. I'm slow and recognize things and thus I like to take my time and do things right. This means looking at problems at thinking them through. My father is the opposite where he comes up with some crazy solution (in most cases) and decides that its the best. Thus there were quite a few times we conflicted and it ended up with some sketch work in some places. (Especially the day when he decided to do things without me and finished things off in a less than professional manner.) The trade off in this is that its their house for the most part from here on in.

I've packed up the majority of things that I have and have them boxed up in the storage downstairs. It took almost four days straight of organizing and packing but I got it done. I've moved on now to getting rid of all the 'junk' that I've amassed so that if I do end up in Vancouver in september of 2006 I won't have much keeping me here. It's working for now but slowly.

I took a trip down to K-town this weekend with the dual intention of bringing back all the things I had in kingston that I wouldn't realy need in Cornwall and getting a little partying done over the long weekend. Friday night I arrived after they'd completed poker and were winding down. People decided to head home and since I was still in driving mode, I gave people rides home. After that, J-Bun and I randomly took a drive to Ganonoque and drove back. It was more my doing than anything since I enjoy a nice long quiet drive. That ended friday night.

Saturday morning, J-Bun and I headed out to Cora's for breakfast on the pretense that fresh fruit would make their breakfast the best ever. To me it was just regular breakfast with fruit and EXPENSIVE orange juice. From there, we got some tasks completed mainly revolving around the bbq later and then headed home. BBQ started about 7ish with lots of meat going on the grill which made for one sucessful bbq. Naturally, after the bbq was beirut which proved to get me fairly drunk and fill McM's camera with lots of photos of me. Some randoms showed up and I think I ended up getting puppy dawg eyes from one of them. I also ended up getting quite a few glances from a friend's girlfriend which made me slightly uncomfortable, but I guess it goes with the hotness territory. The night ended with J-Bun and I heading out to Toucan to grab a beer with BPIC and BPICgal.

J-Bun left the following morning to head home and I slept in til about 11. Woke up and cleaned the house for a little bit, had some food and proceeded to start packing up all of the jazz which I had come to Kingston to pack. [Insert boring couple of hours here]. Upon completion of this, we preped the ridgeliner for drive in movie night. The actual night started out pretty good with some carnival rides and some normal hijinks. Then the movies started and things went downhill. Stealth was a terrible movie and the only thing that saved it was Jessica Biel's hotness. I didn't even bother with the next movie and just went to sleep in the trunk of Dash's truck. As soon as I got home from the drive-in I passed out hard.

I woke up the monday morning at about 9 with the intention of leaving at 10. Naturally with a few last minute things, it ended up being 10:30. I stopped by Thumper's on the way home to drop something off and to say hi. After that I finished the drive home.

Tuesday to now has mainly been spent doing house work and putting things up on e-bay. This weekend I'm helping my sister move the rest of her stuff out of the family home to her new place. Next week I'm painting a few rooms in her house. Saturday, there's a peterborough course and then sunday I'm back in kingston for two weeks. Mostly business though as I need to find a place in Cornwall and then pack up the stuff and get it to Cornwall.

Closing thoughts:
- I'm gonna teach my kids to be minimalists as the less you have, the less you're tied down to one place
- E-bay's a good place to unload you're stuff. Too bad I didn't start way before as I have a lot of nicks and nacks to unload
- I want to get rid of my textbooks now but since I'm in cornwall, its gonna be tough to sell them to Queen's folk in Kingston
- Anyone got any good jobs info in cornwall. I need to get a job otherwise I'm gonna be broke ass.
