CHALET SWISSE

Today I got a big can of jolt soda. It's awesome and big and caffeiney. I'm not allowed energy drinks when Jodie is around because I made this deal with her one time...

"Jodie, I don't like you drinking those diet drinks. My mom says they give you earlobe cancer and your earlobes are very pretty."
"But Jesse, I like drinking lots of soda and I need to retain my girlish figure."
"Okay. Too bad. No diet drinks for you. I don't want to date an earlobe-less freak woman"
"Fine. But no energy drinks for you. I don't want to date somebody whose heart exploded all over their insides and who leaves a bloody backwash in every drink they drink"
"Deal."

So from that date forward I vowed never to drink energy drinks. But today Graham excerted his bad influence powers and made me get a 695mL mega can of Jolt cola. It was so cola-ey that I needed a whole Pepsi afterwards just to sober up.

In other unrelated equations:

Amanda - some hair = cute new look

Kate's sister + rabbit = Christmas presents that you have to feed

Matt + new stamp = Certified Matt quality

Ryan = Ryan + Pecan Pie x 2

Orange x ( Crush + KitKat ) = Crazy Delicious

attractiveness(red beard) < attractiveness(no red beard)

O'Dells + babies + bigger houses = same O'Dells

Jesse + Focus = Nice Ride Jesse

FEELING BLUE MAN

Highlights of today summarized in short bullets:

Jono's ICQ conversation with Jodie: "the hottest girl at the bar bought me a drink... then she introduced me to her ugly friend"

Ate Hard Rock Cafe's tuna-steak sandwich. It was prepared 'rare' to taste better, which made me aprehensive.

Haircut. She buzzed first so Jodie was worried it would become a mushroom cut.

Lotsa Fizz. Beware: orange ones come in the red wrapper and the cherry ones come in the orange wrapper.

Saw funny Captain Crunch antics at the Blue Man Group

ROBBIE CANT KEEP SECRETS

I went to Regina for the holy days and met up with my mom and dad and sister and sister and Robbie and Tuong and Bryan and Shannon. Mark wasn't there 'cause he's out of the country and Clay wasn't there 'cause he was in the country.

While there I mentioned to Robbie in passing that I was going to fly to Ontario, surprise Jodie and then ask her to be my permawoman. So I'm like, "Robbie, keep this on the Q-T until I actually do it, I don't want her to say 'NO' and then I'll be the laughingstock of Robbie's friends!" And then like one minute goes by and Robbie's got to call KS, his permawoman. So he tells her instantly. Then he tells his mom, his sisters and everyone else. And each time he tells someone, he makes it so they have to pretend that they don't know when they see me. The drill is something like this.

Jesse: hello...
Person: Hi Jesse, how's it going??
Jesse: good good.
Person: Just good good? Nothing exciting going on?
Jesse: nopers...
Person: Really? How's your love-life?
Jesse: pretty good. Same girl for a long time now. She's pretty.
Person: How pretty? Long time? Like umm... how long?
Jesse: prettier than a swimming pool of green Smarties. Many weeks.
Person: Is there anything else you'd like to tell me?
Jesse: she likes puppies??
Person: Come on Jesse, you can tell me anything
Jesse: [stares agrily at Robbie] yeah, I think she's a keeper
Person: Soooo.....?
Jesse: I'm going to propose to her! I love her forever she's the best girl I ever met!!
Person: Yeah I know that. Robbie told me.

Well so I flew to Ontario, suprised Jodie and asked her to marry me. She said yes, she's good like that. We're going to have infinite amounts of happiness and peanut-butter icecream in our future together. I'm stoked. You can see pictures of the post-proposal couple, and the obligatory bling.
