Yesterday I went to bed at 4am, because I kept saying "okay, i'll go to bed right after this mission".  I said this around 5 times.  Game of the night:  Soldier of Fortune II.  I went to bed late, but knowing that I am an unemployed bum, I knew I could sleep in for as long as I wanted!  Ain't life grand?
8:12am.  The phone rang, I woke up pretty quick, because the ringer on my phone is extremely loud, and it's right next to my bed, AND I thought it might be a call from my former boss, getting back to me about the job possibility.  It was a fax machine, so I hung up.  8:32am.  Yeah, it was a fax again.  I tried and tried to get back to sleep, but by 9am lost the battle and got up.  9:30am, my former boss actually did call.  We discussed how I might be able to help with some projects that he was currently working on.  I was a bit groggy though, I sincerely hope that didn't count as an interview!
In the afternoon I went downtown with my friend Max to check out the EXPO COMM tradeshow at the convention centre.  What a disappointment -- $40 to get in!!  So then we looked around the convention centre for other events.  There was a holiday gift show, so we checked that out.  Turns out it was a small room full of cheap Christmas toys!  Sigh.. So that basically wasted my afternoon.  Although it was nice catching up with Max, talking about job searching, school stuff, etc.  I had McD's for lunch for the first time in months.  I missed McD's, but afterwards, the stomach ache I got from it made me realize why I stopped having McD's.  Haha.
Tonight's game was better than expected.  I expected the Raptors to lose by 30 points, but they managed to keep it close, losing by only 14.  I think Chuck Swirsky is an idiot by the way.  It's like he's watching basketball for the first time.  He has to be the worst basketball commentator I have ever heard.  What happened to the black guy they had before?  Meanwhile, Leo Rautins is getting better and better.  If he puts on 40-50 pounds he might have a shot at getting a job with ESPN.
