I do love me bad Canadian sf shows, they're actually good! Speaking of Canadians, I was watching some videos from my fave band Neverest (Especially Everything) and I think they were Canadian, they no longer play, sadly :(
And they keep taking away shows that I do want to watch! I just got an email from them. Merry Christmas! On December 25th we are increasing your rates an additional $1 a month.... What a bunch of turds they are!
How dare they??? :) They've just increased our road tolls here about four times, merry Christmas to us as well! I'm afraid of our heating bills next week, because November was very cold and we were heating the house 24/7 it will be even worse next month.
Yikes, 4 times! I think they can have the title of turd now. That sucks about your heating 24/7! Our November was quite warm. We haven't even had snowfall yet this year. I would be really happy if we didn't have a white Christmas, though they are saying that it is supposed to snow this weekend. Fingers crossed they are wrong.
we had first snow on Monday, I even mentioned it in my letter that I sent to you :) It lasted two days and then melted because we had rain too. We do have frost every other morning, though. I hate heating bills, because sometimes we get a bill in the amount of an average monthly salary :) And that is just heating. Gas is expensive here and our palace is too big with impractical stupidly big halls and staircase.
GIVE SOME LOVE TO YOUR DEZZY :) DON'T FORGET THAT BLOGGER'S NEW COMMENT BOX OFTEN REQUIRES FOR YOU TO DISABLE PROTECTION ON YOUR BROWSER IN ORDER TO COMMENT.
Sounds intriguing.
ReplyDeletesomebody said it looks like a Canadian show from the 90s :)

DeleteNetflix needs to stay away from uber expensive and stop hiking my friggin rates up each year. Pretty soon they are going to cost more than cable!
ReplyDeletethey're really spending some massive monies on projects nobody watches, it is very strange.

DeleteThere's no way I'd want my consciousness put into another body. Once around this planet is quite enough.
ReplyDeletebut there are so many gorgeous body we could be put into!!!
DeleteI will be giving this one a chance for sure!
ReplyDeleteThanks DEZ!
