"I've really pulled a boner this time."

Every time someone says, "You've pulled a boner," I can't help but laugh. What is this phrase's origin? When parents yell this phrase at their children, do the parents know what they're saying? Okay, maybe only my parents used to say this. If anyone else says this, I'd like to know. I want to hear some weird sayings or funny things your parents did when you were younger that seemed okay at the time, but looking back, were positively nuts. We can have a "What's Your Childhood Trauma?" party.

It's thundering here, we're going to have a severe storm shortly. If I get cut-off, I'm not retyping this. So tomorrow I am going to an Anti-Flag concert. I don't know their music but again, I said I'd go, so I'll go and hang with the teenyboppers and burn flags or something. I'm not in the mood for that, but who knows, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. I'd rather go to Dundas Square at Yonge and see The Weekend tomorrow at 5pm... and The Dears on Sunday at 6pm... and the beach volleyball games.. all for free... But I have to keep my word, else there's no point in living.

Today is an odd day. It's just a day when I feel out-of-place and gone.

Happy 136th birthday, baby.

Today everyone went up north to go boating. Except for me, because I thought I'd give them some time to bond since they rarely get to spend time together, by themselves. Speaking of bondage, I went downtown on Sunday to the gay parade with S and A. (I could use their realnames and no one would know them anyway, but it seems more scandalous this way.) I recognized a couple of people from university there, and I think I saw someone from my hometown. When we got downtown to Church street around 5:30ish, sheets of rain fell from the sky. We were drenched so we walked to Taco Bell (not an endorsement) and had an enlightening discussion about the main differences between dykes and gay girls (butch and femme). Yes, our binary categories marginalized the tomboys. 'Marginalized' is one of those hot keywords everyone uses in university classes.
