I thought my tendency to apologize a lot even when I'm not at fault for something was the one thing about me that's allegedly Canadian, until I read on TV tropes that some people with Asperger's do this a lot. It makes sense since you're never quite sure if you just said or did something inappropriate or not, so you say sorry just to be safe.

Also, it's Japanese people who *really* apologize a lot. Compared to them, Canadians are pretty rude. :)

I am trying to keep normal and be happy, and not think about going back to school. Thats what's in my mind right now.

Thinking of how to be a more informative shopper with all that exists sometimes not easy to pick something as there are so many brands

Whirlpool is such a magical site sometimes. You complain about a product and/or service there and VIOLA!! you get a reply from a rep of the company you're complaining about willing to solve all your life's woes! :D

It happened twice to me with my ISP and now it's happening with my car processing people. I'ma email this address they gave me and see what happens. See if they can magically make my car appear at the dealer tomorrow!

But then again the address might just be part of an elaborate thievery scam, and my car will turn up at the dealer sans the head unit or something lol. It's happened to a few VW's before.

Too late, email sent.

I wish people would stop asking when I'm going back to school. I don't know what the heck I'm doing, I certainly don't want to be reminded of it. Besides that, it's embarrassing, everyone else is progressing and back here, riding in the wake, treading water.

A house where my parents live burned down last night! I read about it when I saw it on the front page of our local newspaper while grocery shopping. The article said that the family was woken up by their dog's barking and they all go out safely, including the dog, but by the time the firefighters arrived the place was engulfed in flames.

I asked my dad about it when he drove me home after buying groceries. He told me he knows the family and wants to do whatever he can to help them after what happened. I can't imagine losing everything I owned in a fire. I have a lot of things that can't be replaced. And other things that I know insurance won't replace because insurance companies are evil. :roll:

I wonder how the fire started? Sometimes I worry that one of the other residents in my apartment building will start a fire by leaving something on the stove or from smoking, even thought they're not allowed to smoke inside. Some people decide to make french fries late at night for a snack but then they fall asleep or pass out from drinking, and then the hot grease burns the whole place down. It's scary. :(

My parents had to cancel their annual trip down south last month because of a big snowstorm. They've planned to go down by the end of they week and now the forecast is predicting yet another big storm.

Mother Nature is not a nice lady. :(

But maybe it's for the best if they don't go anywhere tropical because of all the mosquitoes carrying the Zika virus and dengue fever. It would be horrible if they caught some terrible disease. It was bad enough when my dad got some horrible food poisoning one time they were on their vacation.

Lo and behold I had 3 missed calls from the dealer today :o (left mobile phone at home)

Did magic happen? I actually got a reply to the email today too.

Currently, I am really hungry and I want to get out of school already and go to the youth centre.
Hopefully, the day will go fast 8)

Thinking of how my GF and my mom can get along when my GF wants to meet her. My sister does know about me having a GF and she's glad that I am happy! :)

Hoping to return to the workplace just not in an environment where my autistic skills are under utilized or where I wind up being mistreated
