i’m seriously thinking of moving to canada.

i just saw the new micheal moore film “sicko”. it disturbed me greatly, and made me want to flee the country. AGAIN.

i think the idea that the government has so much secret control over the american public scares me more than anything. i feel like americans THINK they know all the answers and the truth and their government is only trying to protect them blah blah blah. but i, for one, would rather know what’s REALLY happening then be told half-truths and lies! to me, that makes things SOOOOO much worse.

therefore, canada is looking extremely nice right now.

right after i got home from the movie today, i looked up places to live in canada. vancouver is pretty much right on the boarder between washington and canada. yet, since it’s in canada, there are different rules and probably a completely different attitude.

i’m thinking of going there to check it out for awhile. if i like it, maybe i’ll just have to stay. and since it’s a whole heck of a lot closer than scotland or ireland, i won’t feel bad about living there all the time because i’ll still be able to see my family for holidays and stuff.

i can only see a bright future there. unblemished with HMOs and worry.

YAY CANADA!

i just posted a blog in my other blog that i share with my two old friends, jessica and melanie. it was about a wendy’s commercial in which everyone is standing around kicking trees.

there’s more funny stuff in the commercial, but what caught me the most about it when i first saw it was how STRANGE it was. it’s a wendy’s commercial, but it’s so random and weird and there are people kicking trees which has nothing to do with hamburgers!!

but in any case, at the end of my post i came to the conclusion that instead of making me want to eat their “hot juicy burger”, i find myself wanting very much to go kick some trees.

*******************

in 7 minutes it will be tomorrow. and tomorrow i have a job interview, which i hope will be successful so i can go do something other than watch (and apparently memorize) commercials.

also if i get a job i can have money to mostly pay my bills, but also buy things such as art supplies, which will then enable me to hole up in my room listening to music (that i can purchase on itunes!) and make sculptures or paint. this will also prevent me from watching (and memorizing) commercials, which is a pretty sad/pathetic/silly pastime.

my goal: to make a friend who will want to go kick trees with me. and then maybe play freeze-tag.
