I am the Culprit.

My Return to Empire Avenue - and Blogging!

2012-01-21T17:35:00.001-08:00

Hi everybody. Today I thought it would be the PERFECT day to return from my 5 month hiatus because of [X]pendapalooza. I decided to take a break from blogging, posting youtube videos, and from Empire Avenue over the summer because I have had a lot of stuff going on in my life as of late including work, family stuff, deaths, etc...

Unfortunately since the last time I blogged my parrot Chester died. He had night frights and injured himself. More importantly, my brother's best friend was brutally murdered on Halloween. It has been a really sad and emotional time for myself and those I love. The person who killed her has still not been caught. It makes me very angry and sad. Needless to say, the past few months have been full of trials for me and thus my hiatus from most things internet related.

However, after relentless pestering from my friends from the Super Secret Awesome Group I am back on Empire Avenue and I thought I'd come in with a bang! I had 33 million eaves to spend this morning and due to [X]pendapalooza I decided to try and give back a significant portion of those eaves to you guys to spend on others via having Shareholder Missions. I have to say I am very impressed and grateful at how well these have been received and I am looking forward to continuing to chat with all of you via twitter, empire avenue and on the facebook group pages.

So now, as my shareholder mission #5 comes out - I suppose my blog will get a much needed onslaught of new followers!

Cheers to you guys, and thank you for reading and participating.

Love,
Elle.

Empire Avenue Hockey Pool - Regular Season

2011-10-10T16:52:00.000-07:00

Hi Everybody - this year we will be using a pool manager and you will be allowed to have TRADES!

I need the following information messaged to me on Empire Avenue ASAP:
1. Your team name.
2. Your e-mail address.
3. How many days per week do you want updates e-mailed to you?
4. Your Picks. I need the following: 5 East Forwards, 5 West Forwards, 5 East Defense, 5 West Defense, 1 East Goalie, 1 West Goalie.

Because this year you can trade this is going to work on an honour system. I will check your picks frequently. Any person who trades outside of the East/West guidelines (for example, picking having 5 West forwards and only 4 East) will be immediately suspended indefinitely from the hockey pool.

The Stakes:
I didn't end up claiming my prize for the Playoff Pool. I'm going to up the ante this year because of this. Every player who plays agrees to purchase the winner a 10,000 view ad on Empire Avenue with the wording of the winner's choice. IF YOU ARE LAST PLACE - you agree to purchase THREE 10,000 view ads with the wording of the winners choice.

Please get your info and picks to me AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I will be inputting my picks tonight. Claim your points folks!

It's been a while.

2011-08-01T22:25:00.000-07:00

I know that I haven't messaged people from the Playoff Hockey Pool yet about what ad I want placed. I am hoping to do it in the coming week or two. Sorry! A lot of them have now deleted so I'm going to be kinda screwed. lol Oh well. It's my own fault.

Anyways, I haven't written for a while because it has been a crazy eventful summer. Russell is now moved in with me, and unfortunately Tish leaves in two days. Going to miss my little Reptar. I know she'll be back soon.

Anyways, I spent several weeks in BC in June/July and did some camping as well. Mosquitoes were a biggity bitch. Still are. Holy hell.

The night we got back my next door neighbours house caught fire. It was pretty scary. I managed to break my toe that night - badly. It still hurts and is still swollen. Then once I finally get back to work I end up with the worst tonsilitis I think I've ever had in my life. Still on medication for it but fortunately I only have 2 or 3 more days left.

Anyways, now that my brother starts a new job tomorrow it seems as though I'll finally get back into a routine. I've worked really hard this year, and I needed the time off (although it was more stress than it was worth probably). I look forward to the rest of the year and spending time with my brother and going to concerts. Hoping that once the new routine is established we'll get to writing and recording some new music for everybody, since it is long overdue.

For some reason this week I thought a lot about past relationships with people. Wondering how people are doing. Wondering about what's his face and a couple of others. My ex had a beautiful baby boy with his girlfriend a couple weeks ago. Such a little cutie. I am so happy for them and I hope they decide to tie the knot soon. They're really a great couple. I think it kind of got me a big nostalgic, not only out more recent previous relationships but all the men who have once been in my life as a whole. I'm glad that I can say for the most part that I look back at a majority of things with good memories and a happy heart. Although I still feel to this day that I haven't had closure with one person in particular - I can say that I am one of the lucky few who hasn't managed to burn many bridges. With this one person, I don't feel as though I'll ever feel closure until they speak to me again. They were a close friend, and it kind of eats at me that I don't have the person in my life anymore. My friends and family would tell me I'm stupid for feeling that way. I just don't like to end things on bad terms I guess.

I'm blabbing. Just have a lot on my mind and I am procrastinating going to bed. Now that in the coming months it seems things might become a little easier for me, I think it's time to finally start saying yes and living life a bit. I'm off to bed. I'll write more later. Love to my SSAG crazy chatty motherfuckers. xoxo

The only people to get points last night was Travis and Colin. Colin made a HUGE jump into third place last night and deserves props as such!

Although I am thrilled that I won the pool, somehow it doesn't feel very joyful for me considering the result of last nights game. I'm a pretty sad panda right now.

I'll contact each of you on Empire Avenue with the ad that I would like later on.

You guys can also expect a Canucks themed video coming from me in the next few days.

Thought I would repost my Facebook Status here as well.

2011-06-15T16:35:00.001-07:00

17 years ago Amanda Matkovich Griffin and I were watching game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals with my Dad in our living room. We made Canucks signs and ran and screamed down Glen Drive when Trevor Linden scored both his goals in that game. At the end of the night there were two heartbroken little girls. Tonight = REDEMPTION. Mandy, I'm running out in the street for you tonight. ♥ GO CANUCKS GO!!!

I AM SO BLOODY EXCITED!

So for those of you wondering why I won't be around as much over the next month - I'm working two jobs. I am probably going to be working 7 days a week and 12 hours per day (not including the 2 hours each way in transportation time). So yeah.

I will make every effort to make it to 100 on Empire Avenue and I will make time to keep my stats up (even if it kills me).

Love you guys.

xoxoxo

Yay! My 100 facts blog inspired somebody!

If any of you that read my blog also decide to post similar blogs please let me know in the comments and I will post them in this post!

Everything you ever wanted (or don't care) to know about me.

2011-03-29T16:37:00.000-07:00

So many of you have showed an interest in wanting to know more about what makes me tick (in comments, on Empire Avenue, etc…). I am completely flattered that many of you actually give a shit! lol

So on twitter a couple of days ago there was a trending topic: #100factsaboutme. I started having a bit of fun with it and got a positive response to several of the facts that I had tweeted about myself, so I figured I would turn this into a blog. Now, I’m honestly not even sure I can come up with 100 facts about myself (this may be a challenge), however you never know until you try!

Many of the things that I am about to post are things that not even my closest friends or family probably know about me, while others might be more obvious. While I am an open book about things going on in my life, I tend to stay away from sharing a lot of about myself in general.

So without further ado, my tell-all - 100 facts about yours truly!
(P.S. If any of you actually read ALL of this I will be very surprised)

1. I was born with bilateral club foot.
2. When I was two my older brother gave me a small keyboard. Shortly after I was playing songs I heard on the radio by ear AND was transposing them into different octaves and keys.
3. I graduated high school early.
4. When I was young my imaginary friend was Peter Pan.
5. My first memory occurred when I was 5 months old. It still freaks my Mom out when I recount it to her. I have many memories from when I was a baby.
6. I learned to walk with casts on both legs that went all the way to my bum. I wasn’t even supposed to crawl. I was a very determined baby.
7. I have 17 Aunts and Uncles (not including their spouses).
8. I literally have HUNDREDS of cousins.
9. I made it past the first few rounds of the first season of Canadian Idol before leaving – they kept us in a hot concrete room with no water for hours at a time and I hated the music anyways so at 11 p.m. on the 2nd night I left.
10. Joe Spring is my sister-in-law’s brother. My family was depicted in the movie they made about his story as we had all been searching for him.
11. I have still yet to see said movie above. D’oh!
12. My younger brother Russell is the male version of me. We have pretty much all the same likes and dislikes. It creeps people out.
13. I have no grandparents. My grandmothers both died when I was young.
14. I hate pancreatic cancer. It has taken the lives of two people who were very dear to me.
15. I keep secrets. Some of the things I know but haven’t said most people would not be able to keep to themselves. I’d rather be trustworthy – it’s something I value dearly.
16. I value loyalty above all other traits in friends. I am fiercely loyal and if you’re going to be a part of my inner circle I expect the same or else that person will not be worth my time.
17. I am actually fairly shy although it may seem to others that I am outgoing. It takes a conscious effort for me to not be in my shell.
18. I would NEVER make the first move with a guy. Way too chickenshit.
19. I have never confessed to liking a guy either. Once again, way too chickenshit. There is only one person who I have ever been comfortable saying it to their face and he is (or at least was) rather special.
20. I care a lot about everybody, even if you’re my worst enemy I still care about you. I actually feel as though it is one of my faults at times.
21. I love animals. I pretty much have a zoo.
22. I get extremely excited when I see a llama. I usually yell "LLAMA LLAMA LLAMA!"
23. I am a bit of a workaholic and I pride myself on my work ethic.
24. I play several instruments (all self taught) including guitar, bass guitar, and piano.
25. I sing.
26. I compose songs and have strong songwriting skills.
27. I will be working on releasing a solo album once my brother is here in Edmonton to help with the house.
28. I am in a band with my younger brother; we are called ‘I am the Culprit’.
29. My old band opened for Social Code several years ago.
30. I’ve was in several small musical theater productions during my teens including Annie, Fiddler on the Roof, and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
31. I have lost count of how many bones I’ve broken.
32. I am terrified of spiders.
33. I am also terrified of rivers. I was swept away in a flash flood on a river and if it wasn’t for me and my friends strong swimming abilities we probably would not have survived. The undertow sucked the water shoes right off my feet (those of you who have worn them before would know how powerful it would have to be to do so).
34. I once had my head stuck to my shoulder for a week (ouch) in grade 7 and people still recount to me how hilarious they thought it was (but I sure didn’t) to me to this day.
35. I love the water (minus rivers). My mom swears I’m part fish.
36. I have mad skills on a trampoline. You suckers wish you could flip like me.
37. My childhood cat saved my leg. I had fresh casts put on when I was a baby and the doctor had put them on wrong. I was playing in the backyard with my cat and she bit my toe (on the other foot) so that I’d start crying and my parents would notice me. This is the cat which I would throw down a slide into the pool and would get back out and wait at the top for me. Never scratched, never bit me ever. My leg was already blue. As my Dad put me in the kitchen sink and started ripping my cast off, the cat didn’t want to leave my side.
38. Once I was brought to the emergency room my Dad knocked out said doctor above.
39. I have had THREE sets of front teeth. I lost my two front teeth when I was two so they put in implants, then when I was older I lost the implants playing hockey, and now I have my real permanent front teeth. Hope to never need another set.
40. I hate brussel sprouts and green beans.
41. I love tomatoes! When I was a toddler I would get into the refrigerator and into the tomato drawer and take a bite out of each and every one (much to my mom’s annoyance). I used to (and admittedly still do) eat them whole.
42. Just about every single one of my baby pictures involves a musical instrument, a made up musical instrument, me wearing headphones, or me singing into something.
43. I was obsessed with Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey when I was little.
44. We bought our first VHS in 1993 shortly after my brother was born. The first movie we watched on it was The Bodyguard.
45. My two favorite movies are Dantes Peak and Twister.
46. I am interested in Volcanology, Seismology, and Research Meteorology.
47. My dream vacation would be to go storm chasing.
48. I have a bucket list. It has two things on it: See a volcano erupt, and see a cow picked up by a tornado (it must moo).
49. Mount St. Helens is my favorite place on this planet. When she woke up we drove down there. We parked in the park (as it was too cold to camp) about 5 miles from her crater and felt her rumble all night. It was amazing. I encourage everybody to go visit – absolutely breathtaking.
50. I really really really really really want to visit Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas and Crater Lake in Oregon.
51. I have absolutely no desire to travel overseas. The only place that really peaks my interest is perhaps Australia or Ireland. I love road trips and my ideal vacation is right here exploring my own backyard (or the States).
52. I love camping.
53. I love Hockey. I have loved the Canucks for as long as I can remember. Go Canucks Go!
54. I enjoy going to concerts.
55. I am not afraid of a circle pit. I will fucking kill you.
56. I broke my eyebrow/socket in a mosh pit. I nearly blacked out and was caught by my ex boyfriend at the time (my boyfriend was there but was too pussy to go in). I regained my balance, and continued moshing for the rest of the show. By the end of the last band playing my eye was swollen shut and I was almost unrecognizable. The lead singer whose band was playing when it happened found me after the show and said he had to ‘shake my hand’ because it was ‘hardcore’.
57. I got my nickname (Lady Hardcore) from my friend Brad when I was 14. He said it, it stuck.
58. I never ever wear granny panties.
59. I am interested in psychology and have taken formal courses.
60. I have only lost at Texas Holdem poker twice.
61. I am an incredibly good read of people.
62. I am not a big reader. I do not read any fiction books whatsoever. When I do feel like reading, it’s always non-fiction. You won’t find a single fiction book in my home, rather many text books.
63. I tend to remember useless trivia – facts that I seem to pick up out of nowhere. Many think wtf but I always get picked for jeopardy though.
64. I love DC and Roxy stuff.
65. I have a tonne of Happy Bunny stuff.
66. Skurvy is my favorite Paul Frank character. If I could have Skurvy EVERYTHING I totally would.
67. I have a pirate bedroom. Not kidding. It even includes skull and crossbones curtains and a skull and crossbones mirror.
68. I refer to my trailer as “The Warship”.
69. I really want to own an Old English Sheepdog one day.
70. I would also like to have a Rose Breasted Cockatoo.
71. I absolutely love aquariums however I have a bad track record with fish.
72. My first fish was named ‘Angus the homosexual fish’. He was a male but was pink and purple. I dare not publicly repeat the name of the second fish I owned…
73. I have a plan for my dream company. It will happen one day.
74. You know how doctors tell you the saw they use to cut casts off cannot cut you? They’re lying! I was cut by one of those saws by a doctor. Wish my Dad punched him out too. lol
75. My wisdom tooth that was removed a couple of years ago GREW BACK, much to my displeasure.
76. I used to have my vertical labret pierced – I recently took it out. I do have double lobe piercings, and my anti-tragus, tragus and anti-helix currently pierced. More will come.
77. I still have not gotten my first tattoo. Hopefully this summer I will change that.
78. Nothing pisses me off more than double standards or reverse racism.
79. If you are a hypocrite I will call you out on it.
80. I enjoy canoeing on anything other than a river.
81. I haven’t gone fishing in a long time, however it is something I very much enjoy.
82. I love going caving! Currently I have not done any vertical caves, one day I hope to learn how to properly spelunk with ropes and do some exploration.
83. Coffee flavored ice cream is my favorite.
84. If there isn’t pineapple on a pizza, I’m not interested.
85. I had Indian food for the first time this year. I love it and now make butter chicken regularly.
86. I cannot stand people who lack common sense. I actively avoid them and I do not believe that people who are book smart or good at school are more intelligent than individuals who have common sense. You can have a PhD and still be a dumbass as far as I am concerned.
87. My career aptitude test stated my ideal career would be a Neurosurgeon. While I think that’s awesome and I am fascinated by medicine and the human body I don’t think I have the steady hands that would be required for a job like that. I used to watch ‘The Operation’ while eating dinner though. If things had been different and I had the money and support I have no doubt that I would be on my way to being a doctor (however I am much more interested in trauma than neuro).
88. I love my younger brother more than life itself. If you mess with him I’ll cut you.
89. I am and always will be Daddy’s little girl.
90. I was bullied and abused tremendously during my school years. Some of the things that happened to me while in school (such as getting industrial glue dumped in my hair, a kid being paid to break my arm intentionally, my bike brakes being tampered with so they stopped working and I got seriously hurt, being held down and my casted arm being put into a portable door and them slamming the door on it, etc…) were completely negligent and should have never, ever been allowed to happen. I wonder how some of these children can live with themselves to this day.
91. I believe the horrors I faced in school during my childhood made me the strong person I am today; however, if any one of the people who did these things to me crossed my path I couldn’t guarantee they would make it to the other side. LOL. (I would never condone violence but they would get an earful that’s for sure.)
92. I only spent two weeks in Kindergarten. (I was pulled out and put into the next grade – the beginning of my school nightmare).
93. I dislike when people don’t use capitals and punctuation on the internet. I don’t expect to see perfect English all the time; however, I also don’t think you should present yourself to the world as a bloody illiterate invalid.
94. I do believe you can FEEL THE WRATH OF MY CAPITAL LETTERS! Hahaha.
95. My dream in life is and always will be to become a successful musician.
96. I have never traveled further East than Quebec, or further South than Salem, Oregon. I would love to visit Nova Scotia.
97. I collect elephants.
98. I really want to own a big, awesome, and totally out there styled house one day.
99. I got 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one. LOL (Okay, I’m running out and this got really hard after number 30.) Ummmm… I would rather be crazy busy at work than bored or not have enough to do.
100. FINALLY. If you read to this point, I should probably check for you in my closet or front bushes. Last but not least: I am not a star crazy girl, and I tend to not get boy crazy either; however, I would marry Spencer Chamberlain on the drop of a dime.

Anyways, I would love to hear some interesting facts about all of you, so you should give me 10 good ones in the comments.

No joking here.

Listening to the radio this morning and there was a song on - during the breakdown it sounded like my cat was being seriously injured so I ran out the bathroom looking for her only to realize it was the song. Note to artists: If you sound like a dying cat - literally - then you suck and should just quit. Thanks for the panic this morning. I appreciated it. Not.

Oh man. Thank you SO much for making up my mind.

2011-03-25T20:42:00.000-07:00

For a second there I doubted my decision, but now he's just confirmed it beyond a doubt.

In fact, it took me a lot of will power to laugh it off instead of saying fuck you.

If only he knew what I had been planning. He'd be feeling pretty shitty I'm betting.

(For those of you who don't know the story, it's a couple of posts below).

Ever have that happen in your life? Have one pivotal moment where somebody says something to you and it instantly undoes years of attraction?

Guys, another lesson for you: There is NOTHING more unattractive than trying to control a girl. Nothing.

So - now I officially have no hang ups. Time to date the cute guys in my life (after my brother comes and I can once again afford to have a social life, of course).

Now I know it's time for me to stop putting my life on hold because of this notion that I'm going to go down there and everything will be amazing, because now I'm not even going to bother going down there!

Boys: Feel free to apply to be my boyfriend in the comments.

So I got asked out today... At WALMART.

2011-03-20T19:33:00.000-07:00

Fucking classy!

So many of you showed interest in my tweet so I decided to blog this rather than share the story 50 bazillion times.

Basically it goes like this:

I'm about to leave (bagging my stuff at the checkout) Walmart and the person who does loss prevention let probably 30 or so white people through the doors no problem, and there was a black guy and his sister who were leaving - on the opposite side of the doors from this old fart. Well, out of all the people mass exodusing the store he walks all the way across to them and asked to check their stuff. At this point I was just about finished bagging my stuff and was watching from afar. They had just finished going through a line and paying - and they had quite a bit of stuff. He wants to go through each and every item in all their bags - which they clearly had paid for...and then pretty much started harassing them.

By that time I'm done, I walk up to the idiot and ask to see his security license - he didn't have one of course... so I told them that this stupid fuck cannot do anything if they simply walk out the store, they thanked me and did so. We're almost out of the doors and not 3 seconds later he stops me and goes "you're really beautiful girl"... and I'm thinking to myself OH GOD NO... and he asks me for my number because he wants to take me to dinner.

He was cute, don't get me wrong, but I'm not the type of girl to go out with a complete stranger, nor would I go out with somebody so forward. WHO ASKS SOMEBODY OUT AT A WALMART, REALLY? Seriously, I was in sweats, had my hair in a messy bun, absolutely no makeup on at all, and I was sweaty because I had been in a rush and was literally running around the store so I could make my bus - I wouldn't even date me looking like that. lol

Anyways, he explains to me that it's his sister that he's with - not his girlfriend and that he thinks I'm beautiful, blah blah blah and that he'd really like to take me for dinner or at the very least coffee. I declined to give him my phone number and used the 'I'm seeing somebody' excuse to remove myself from the situation. So he asks me if I am dating somebody who is white or black - I said white. He says "you should really try black". lol Totally obvious as to what he was alluding to.

Anyways, he leaves and I start heading towards the bus stop (by this time I've missed my bus) - and guess who pulls up in his vehicle! Mr. Stalker please date me! That's who!

He offers me a ride home. I explained to him that I live far away and it would be out of his way, and that my bus was coming soon (which it wasn't). He finally gives up (because I clearly am not about to get in a vehicle with a stranger) so he writes down his name and number on his receipt and hands it to me. Once again before he leaves he reiterates the fact that I should be dating a black man and he really wants to take me out and spoil me.

If he didn't come on so strong would I have considered maybe stopping for a coffee nearby? Possibly. So moral of the story is, if you come off too strong - I'm going to walk away.

Maybe it's a cultural thing, but every single time I've been asked out in public by a stranger it's been by a black man. I think it's my assets. ;)

Anyways, guys out there - let's recap: 1. Never ask a girl out at Walmart (unless you live in hickville); 2. Never allude to your penis size; 3. Never ever follow a girl after the decline; 4. Never try and use race as a reason for a date - big turn off. People are people, if you're a good person it doesn't matter what colour your skin is.

You will NEVER get the girl that way. Lesson learned.

It's been a while, I know...

2011-03-19T20:32:00.001-07:00

Things have been super busy lately and when I get home I just don't have the motivation to post!

So what's up? Lots!

Work has been crazy and the next month or so is going to be a real test of my stress management skills. I'm hoping that I can get through it without freaking out or getting sick.

My brother is coming for a week in May. We're going to System of a Down. I'm really excited to see them play (for the 3rd time) and get all the prep stuff out of the way before he moves in at the beginning of July. He's going to be going to school here, and I've been slowly working on getting his room ready.

This summer is the first time I'll be taking a break in YEARS. I am really looking forward to it, but am apprehensive for when extended family is all together because let's face it - they're nothing but drama. They do nothing but gossip and put people down and fight with one another over the stupidest things. I made a decision about three years ago that I don't want them in my life (with the exception of two of my Aunts) and I have stuck with it. Their stupid as fuck spawn included. I will have to grin and bear it for the couple of days they will also be there. I hope Amy and Mari come so it's not quite so bad. I really really really want to see them. I miss them.

I was going to make a side trip to the coast while I'm there to see a particular boy - however last week he gave me an ultimatum and that just really rubbed me the wrong way. I know that's not his intention and he didn't know I was planning a surprise - but I'm not the type of girl who will be submissive to anybody. For some reason after he mentioned it for the 2nd time it made me come to a realization and made my mind up for me. I'm done. He's changed, I've most certainly changed, and after several years of wanting I'm going to simply put it to rest. Doesn't mean I don't love him, because I do. I always have. Doesn't mean I don't want to be his best friend in the world, because I do, and I always will. Just means that he's suddenly not the priority anymore and we're probably never going to be anything more than what we are. It's sad - but I have compromised so many things in my life. Even though it was something innocent that he said - I just felt like I have so much stress in my life, and so many people and things to be accountable too and he simply can't be one of them. I haven't told him that though. I just keep avoiding it. He's the person I go to in order to get away from the bad things in my life, and when he puts pressure on me it does nothing but make me do the exact opposite of what he wants. Maybe one day when I don't have these stresses in my life I will re-evaluate the situation.

Anyways, that's a glimpse into the past little bit. I'll try and blog again tomorrow maybe - I will definitely post a hockey pool update as I have had a bunch of people message me wanting to know where they stand. Sorry guys. Go Canucks Go!

It is pretty awesome. I am very happy with it. I was just checking nhl.com and it looks like the Canucks game tomorrow might be on HNIC which I always like because I'm not a fan of TSN or Sportsnet. Something to look forward to.

Anywho, I'm starting to feel better now which is good. Hopefully by Monday this stupid cold is out of my system.

You probably won't see tumblr posts from me but you will see updates hopefully everyday from this blog.

Anywho magoo, if any of you are going to panic wondering where I am (which seems to be any day that I am away from a computer - shocker!) that's the scoop.

I got 36 points last night. None of you suckers came anywhere close to that.

Standings are all in the same order however so I'm not posting the chart.

THIRTY-SIX POINTS.

Continuously going back to a person who is absolutely toxic to them - and not be able to do a damn thing about it other than pick up the pieces later on?

I keep seeing a sibling do this, and I'm at my wits end. I don't think he realizes exactly how badly he's being manipulated or how much of a piece of shit said manipulator really is.

His family, his friends, EVERYBODY sees this except him.

I feel like I can't keep it in anymore. I am going to flip out and lose my shit if this keeps up.

Oh Lord give me the strength to not slap a bitch.

From now on every song that I write will now have an offensive word quota of at least 10. Every song must also say a homosexual slur, something racist, depict the prophet Muhammad in great detail, incite cannibalism and suggest that women are only good for making sammiches.

Another foot washes ashore.

2010-12-14T20:47:00.000-08:00

CBC News - British Columbia - Small human foot washes ashore on West Coast

They also failed to mention that a foot was found in Eastern Canada a few months ago.

You would think there would be A LOT more in the news about it because it really sounds like there might be a really sick fuck out there who is very good at what he or she does if they have yet to identify a single deceased person even with said feet. Just saying.

Thoughts? Opinions?

My new bio.

2010-12-01T20:30:00.000-08:00

I'm pretty sure it's made of awesome. Colin seemed to love it. I'm sure David would enjoy this one too.

"My name is Elle. My hobbies are world domination, acid and woodchippering, and recruiting nudists to do hilarious tasks. I'm a Scorpio, enjoy long walks on the beach, and cunt punting or slut-bussing brainless invalids. In my spare time I steal awesomeahol from Josh and laugh at his withdrawals. Although I am e-married to Colin you can always feel free to stalk me (bushes or closet... whatever). I am smart and I shit talent. I'm also incredibly modest and humble."

What a disappointing loss!

The hiatus is over.

2010-11-23T18:50:00.000-08:00

I am pleased to announce that I am back on Empire Avenue and have stopped my hiatus from EA, twitter, blog, tumblr, etc...

I took the last month off as I was feeling really stressed, staying up way too late, and generally feeling like I was tied to the internet which isn't cool.

Anyways, I'm back. I needed the break from the drama llama.

Sorry guys! No hockey pool standings tonight!

2010-10-18T20:34:00.000-07:00

I went to my daily e-mail and they were all zeroed out and the site is showing the same thing. Must be a glitch. Hopefully I can update tomorrow.

Love you all.

Earth Shattering Announcement!

2010-10-17T21:07:00.000-07:00

So the name of my new band is going to be "I am the Culprit". It was agreed that it was a pretty kickass fucking name for a band. I never thought the name of my blog would end up influencing the band name but that's how life works!

Since that is the name of my blog I suppose I might need a new name for it. Suggestions people? Or can I get away with it staying the same?

You won't hear anything from this band for about a year since some of us are in different cities and won't be relocating until the summer. You will see awesome brutality however. Don't you worry.

Does everybody agree on the last place = you have to buy 10,000 clause?

In other news. It's the long weekend. Today wasn't productive so I have to make tomorrow count. My Uncle came to my door today and asked me to go to Thanksgiving dinner on Monday.

He told me he'd pick me up at 11 AM. SERIOUSLY? He said DINNER would be at 1 PM. Hahaha. That's lunch! I am hoping that I can go straight home after and NOT be forced to spend my entire day there wasting time when I could be a) doing house work, b) relaxing or c) watching hockey.

Thou shalt not interfere with my hockey watching.

Grr.

Okay - Victoria and her canine friend requested this.

So there you have it. That took me a long time to type out. *PHEW*
Tomorrow I will do an update with full points breakdowns as requested. I will do full breakdowns weekly.

Hockey Pool Standings - After 48 Hours.

2010-10-09T15:47:00.000-07:00

These are the results up to the end of the day on OCTOBER 8th.

This weekend with more teams playing I suspect things will change drastically again.

Now, before I post this - let me warn you. It's a shocker.

Fucking Victoria and her God damn beginners luck. "I don't know who to pick or why I'm picking them" - MY ASS.

Rank Team Name
1 The Panda Express
2 Wait, it's a game on ICE?

12 Merlin's Empire

FUCKING LOL @ COLIN. (As your wife I'm a little embarrassed :P)

I would now like to proposition that whoever is in last place at the end of the pool must buy a 10,000 view ad instead of a 5000. Is this agreed with you all?

Hockey Pool Standings - After Day One!

2010-10-08T22:24:00.000-07:00

So I am not sure how much detail you guys are looking for. Next update I will include point totals. Do you guys want to see breakdown by categories? What players are earning you points on any given night? How often to you want updates? I can do this every day if you all wish.

Like I said before... FEEDBACK!

LAST CALL FOR HOCKEY POOL TEAMS!

2010-10-07T14:18:00.000-07:00

If you want in please refer to my previous blog post. I will be accepting entries until I go to bed tonight!

For those of you who have joined in - I am going to give you all a quick sneak peek at some of the team names:

So - the first official update will happen tomorrow night. I would like to know how many updates/what kind of updates you guys want to see. I have an idea but I want to make sure it's also in line with what you guys are wanting. So you all know, the playoffs will be in a separate pool and it will be much more intense than this first go around - so keep an eye out because this is going to become a long lived tradition and in the future I'm going to up the ante!

I'd love comments, feedback, suggestions, etc...

We did say no trades but I want to know what you guys all think. Should we allow late comers with penalties? Feedback people!!

Not to share the full interview with you all until a later date as there is something else that will be done with it in the future. So until then, wait in eager excitement for all to be revealed!

Hahaha my interview on the Influencier.

I'm sad he didn't use my comments regarding Dups, John Lithgow, and a bathtub full of blood. I laughed my ass off though. Well done Doug.

Tonight

2010-09-30T21:01:00.000-07:00

I am le tired. One more day to go before the weekend and a much deserved break.

Underoath added guitars to their track today (underoath777.com) - I am very excited to hear their new CD when it is released. I hope it's hard and awesome with their new drummer (ex Norma Jean drummer for those of you who weren't aware).

Canucks play Avalanche tomorrow night. Here's hoping that they do better. Hahaha.

It's hard to believe that tomorrow is October. This year has just gone by so fast. 9 months until Russell comes to Edmonton. I am so so so very excited.

I know I promised...

2010-09-29T21:22:00.001-07:00

Those pictures - but I cannot find the usb cord for my phone... err...

Sorry guys. :(

When I find it I will upload it. I think I may have left the cord at work.

So I know you guys want the office pictures...

2010-09-28T20:29:00.000-07:00

...and the hockey sheets tonight but I am so exhausted it's just going to have to wait until tomorrow.

So sorry guys. I know many of you have been anxiously waiting. Feel free to pester me relentlessly tomorrow evening.

So excited for Disambiguation.

2010-09-27T19:40:00.000-07:00

Who is in for Empire Avenue Fantasy Hockey?

2010-09-26T21:40:00.000-07:00

Message me on Empire Ave and let me know if you are interested! (e)LDYHXC

So far we have 10 people - which is kinda pathetic. I want 20 MORE!

So today was good. I didn't get any of what I wanted to get done done but whatever.

I just found out my best friend and her fiance are coming to visit in November. This makes me UBER excited!! I am hoping my little brother can make it here for my birthday. I will be one sad panda if he can't. I really want to see Norma Jean and La Dispute with him as well. SO BAD.

So even though twitter was abuzz with hockey team rivalries (and apparently my facebook wall too... err...) at least everybody agreed that MAPLE LEAFS SUCK. Hatred of the Maple Laughs (as my dear hubby -lawl- Colin puts it) is the glue that binds us together as Canadians as far as I am concerned. Speaking of Colin... Buy his shares on empire avenue cause he's cyoot - and tell him to make me chicken pot pies please. Then join the hockey pool. (e)COLEAG

Also, buy Pat as well. I'd totally throw down in a pit with him. (e)PEEN.

Awesome hockey game tonight.

2010-09-25T21:46:00.000-07:00

They sure as hell better sign Morrison or else I will be so heartbroken! He was creating amazing opportunities. He IS a Canuck and he BELONGS on this team!

Luongo looked excellent tonight as well, and I think Henrik and Daniel are both going to be among the top goal scorers in the league. This year HAS to be our year for the cup.

Alberts played a solid game tonight, although I cannot shake memories of last year so I have yet to reserve judgment without more proof that he's changed his bad penalty game killing ways.

Tonight I am feeling more confident about Burrows being out for the next month and Salo being out for most of this season with his torn Achilles (Salo, I know and feel your pain there as Achilles are a BITCH and it's about time that you STOP injuring yourself - you're getting infamous for it!). I miss both of them on the ice though. I did enjoy Burrows commentary on Canucks TV for the past couple of games however. :P

Happy 30th Birthday to Daniel and Henrick Sedin tomorrow!

GO CANUCKS GO!

Why Lucy should sleep with one eye open from now on.

2010-09-25T12:43:00.000-07:00

Upset.

2010-09-25T09:46:00.000-07:00

My cat just destroyed my brand new couch beyond repair. The one my Mom bought me last month.

My parents are going to shit a brick.

I can't have anything go right ever. I can't have anything nice or have anything work out for me.

This fucking sucks.

Tired

2010-09-23T22:30:00.000-07:00

So today was full of all kinds of suck. I'm coming down with what appears to be the office plague and I am stressed to the max at work. I don't understand how some people can be so lazy and ditch their responsibilities on other people.

I'm feeling worn down and eventually I think I'll just end up sitting in my cubicle in tears if this keeps up.

Every branch has 3-4 people doing what I do by myself, and yet I'm dumped with a group additional to my own and they have 3 people who could easily handle the job.

The frustration I feel with this whole scenario is beyond words.

Then I come home and I'm struggling to make ends meet. It's really a slap in the face. I will rise to the occasion like I have for the past year - but at the very least you could pay me what I'm worth.

I don't think people realize exactly how much I've taken on, and how the stress has been literally eating away at me not only when I'm at work, but now in my home life too.

I may be smart and competent but I am not a machine.

I'm taken for granted because I'm nice and I don't feel secure enough to put down my foot and say no.

I don't think any of the people I work with even realize what I have been going through. They've all lived privileged lives. They don't realize that if I had the opportunities that they had all been given I would probably be a trauma surgeon or a volcanologist or a lawyer or a psychologist.

These people don't know that my aptitude test's first result was neurosurgeon, then nuclear physicist then a fucking rocket scientist.

These people don't know that any other person in my shoes right now would fail miserably. It's true. The only other person who is even remotely close to my working situation is on stress leave and has been for months.

I like my job and the people I directly work with. I just hate that when I come home I can't even have a toilet that fucking works. I hate that I only own one pair of pants that I have to wash over and over again every day. I hate that my shoes have holes in them and when it rains my feet are wet and because I don't have proper foot support I am in pain all day. I hate that I have a tooth that hurts and even with my benefits I can't afford to fix it. I hate that I have a car I can't even drive, that I have to carry my groceries and pet food on a bus and then walk a kilometer. I hate that every simple thing I need to do takes the entire day and takes significant effort.

Sorry, but I'm at a point where I need to let it out or it's going to consume me. I don't even have anybody here to talk to.

I'm alone, I'm stressed, I'm struggling. It's all so unnecessary.

I wish somebody, anybody would take their head out of their ass for a minute and try to walk in my shoes.

Oh Rudiger...

My poor squirrel.

In other news. Comeback kids are here to stay! Had it not been for bad calls in the last half of the third I think the outcome of the game would have been much different.

Also also.

2010-09-21T21:57:00.001-07:00

Does anybody know where I can find the clip with Swedish Chef walking going BORK BORK BORK - PORK PORK PORK PORK - SPORK SPORK SPORK - etc...?

I tried finding it on youtube and had no luck.

Also.

2010-09-21T21:40:00.000-07:00

BOURQUE BORK BORK BORK BORK
PORK PORK PORK PORK PORK
SPORK SPORK SPORK SPORK!

/Swedish Chef impressions I do every time Rene Bourque has the puck.

So that was a disappointment.

2010-09-21T21:24:00.000-07:00

Canucks lost both games - although it is definitely not a sign of things to come.

It was nice to see Morrison back in a Canucks jersey! He's hungry for the cup and I think he came back cause he knows this is the team that will give him the best shot to do it.

Predictions for this year:
Canucks top Northwest Division and make (kill) the playoffs.
Colorado will probably make playoffs, Calgary is iffy if they will.
Edmonton will be fighting with Toronto for last place again. Fag-neuf is going to blow a gasket through his shit hole at some point live on television.

4 Days Until Hockey!

2010-09-17T21:47:00.000-07:00

So today was crazy busy at work and now that I'm home for the weekend I'm finding it hard to unwind.

Today I had a surprise that somebody is going to be visiting me from BC for my birthday - which is awesome.

I am planning on upgrading on Empire Avenue tomorrow for those of you who are wondering.

In other news, I highly encourage you guys to watch some of those New York tornado videos - people's reactions and stupidity are actually rather hilarious! All potential Darwin Award winners if you ask me.

I am the Culprit.
