Do you trust my taste in music? Pick a number between 1 and 243 and I'll find the corresponding song in my collection playlist. I'll upload it for you (and everyone else reading this entry) to grab. [Optional: when you've gotten a song from me, go post this meme in your own journal, so I can grab a random song from you.)

Yes, I know I don't have a huge number of songs on my iTunes - still waiting on that computer upgrade. Which is waiting on a job that pays more than $8 an hour.

Speaking of work... so dead. Saturdays suck. Although Saturday afternoon spent playing games with Dex and Mindy on account of the crappy weather out there was good. We've had rain, sleet, snow, icy rain and rain again. Welcome to February in Canada.

Hmm. Wonder what time it is in Wodonga? Might be worth calling the folks.

Oh, and the ear is still blocked, even after ear candeling. This sucks so much. Doctor on Tuesday, since the walk-in clinic isn't open Fridays or Mondays. :P

Ear candling is a complete crock of shit.

Just FYI.

I've had it done several times before and it sure beats having a doctor squirt water into my ear with a syringe. Unblocked ear was fine.

Don't knock it unless you've actually tried it.

Too risky for my tastes.

Fine. I've never had problems, and again, it seems to work for me. Except this time, but nothing's worked and I haven't been able to hear out of my right ear for almost a week. Desperate measures and all that - medical science has a turn on Tuesday.

Ahem? (http://findabusiness.yellowpages.ca/searchCustomer.do?type=DISPAD&listingId=73997966&step=more)

Get better, huh?

HAHAHA. Oh, at least you're in Southern Ontario. That is pretty much February in Canada, down there. Though, the friends down there have been telling me it's still way too mild for a normal Toronto winter.

In Northern Ontario, here, February is the month of 3-feet-of-snow blizzards and then rain...then another 2 feet of snow...some mornings it's just shit to try and get out of your driveway, and they still don't close anything down.

Just not this year. This year HAS been way too mild for anything much more than a foot at a time, with melty days in between. It's been that way all across Canada this winter...not good at all.

Distance is a factor - I don't want to schlep all the way into downtown when there's one ten minute's walk away. Admittedly one that isn't open on Friday or Monday. 'Cause I did do the search thing for the closest walk-in on Friday.

Then again, I might just be insane enough by tomorrow to say bugger it all and schlep.

*pouts* January lulled me into a false sense of security. This is just icky.

I'm sorry, I've only been to Toronto a handful of times; I can never get the distances right.

Wait. I can never get the distances right in Winnipeg either...

Just consider it. Do you not have buses there? Or only undergrounds? Clearly I need to come to Toronto again, my memory is nonexistant.

(Well, except for that place I got my green Cons. Mm. Shoes.)

At least winter will be over halfway through March, down there. It'll warm up quite fast, soon enough. Up here, it won't be done being melty/snowy/cold until mid-April. :/

You're lucky this year has been so warm for you guys. Not "warm" obviously, but mild. Last year, winter was almost no snow but deadly cold winds.

Also, the walk-in on Bloor is telling me it's open on Monday. Unles they're lying. Or there's a reason you can't go on Monday that I missed because I'm a moron. Er.

I went there on Friday and there's a sign on the door saying that due to a lack of doctors, they're not open on Fridays or Mondays. :( Which sucks and should be on the website, but aint. Bah.

And I appreciate the suggestions - I'll look at what's next closest if I'm still feeling like this tomorrow.

There's the subway, yes. And you do need to visit. ;)

*blush* I mother hen because I love.

And now! I'll go pose. It was the best day ever!

I'll take #128.

And I'm curious to know if you've listened to the stuff I brought with me and what you thought of it - either way.

Song's Home by Michael Buble. One of the ones IJ sent me.

And I'm enjoying the stuff you sent me very much, Especially the Vertical Horizon. :) Still working my way through stuff, since I don't get a lot of time to listen to music lately.

I KNEW you'd like the VH!

I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!

*does the happydance of successful rec's*

I've got another album of theirs if you want me to convert and send it for you. Or just save it for my next visit.

Redhawk

I have complete faith in your musical tastes. :D

242, just because. :D And I'll be sending you an email back in the morning when my brain isn't dribbling out of my ears! *falls over*

were having the mildest winter I can ever remember. Snowed maybe once? We haven't had any moisture in almost two months, and the daffodils are trying to come up.

I'm waiting for the typical New Mexican cold snap to happen and kill everything, but with the way this winter has been, I doubt it.

Also? Lack of moisture = State being on fire come April. Wheee

I would see a doctor luv. There's no sense in rupturing an eardrum.

Whee, more music. Number 38, please.

I don't know how people deal with weather. It's just unnatural.

One Perfect Day by Lydia Denker, from the Australian movie One Perfect Day. Great soundtrack if you're into dance at all. :)

Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect by the Decemberists. Came from a mix cd a friend of mine made up for me a few years ago.

Mum was telling me last night it's been a freakishly warm summer down there this year. They've had two weeks of above 35 C (95 F). Scary bushfire weather, that.

Either works. :) And you should really check out The Watchmen if you're into these guys. Similar sound.

And is it me, or does the intro to "Inside" sound like the Firefly theme?

I choose number 3!!!

Summer's Ending by Abra Moore. Um, not too sure where this came from, possibly from [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com].

111

uhm... 16.

Dude. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Purify by Lacuna Coil. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] gave me this one in the context of an RPG. I've really grown to like these guys. :)

Heh. Another one from [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] Billy Joel, River of Dreams.

And thanks. I'm getting there, just the ear now. :P Doctor tomorrow.

Good. I'm glad you're finally going to see one. I know why it's taking a while but. Yeah. Really glad you're going to see one.

Thanks for the song. ;)
