Remember me? Yeah I'm still here!
Well it's about that time of the week to make a post to this bloody thing eh? I've been so busy lately that I honestly haven't had a chance to do this, or even reply to a lot of my e-mail. I'm sitting down here now trying to catch up on my typing and it's going well. Anyway, first post in a two weeks talks about me not being able to post! Boring!
Things are going really good on my end, everything considered. I did get to go to Niagara the other weekend and I enjoyed the falls, casino, the sights, and some great company! I ended up getting home around 4:00 I think? So it was a late, but great night. The falls are really impressive at night I must say, it's amazing what a few lights can do to a place. I purchased tickets the other day to enjoy REM at the Humming Bird Center of Performing Arts in Toronto! We did get two good seats on the lower level that I'm sure will give us an amazing show. The last time I saw REM I was stuck in the lower bowl but back far from the stage, worst 80 dollar seats in the house ;) This time though we are going to be a lot closer and I'm actually looking forward to it. I got the Metallica concert coming up on the 6th or 9th (can't remember) and that's going to be burnt out! I'm going by myself so hopefully I will leave with my body intact
So I was driving to work the other day, and for those who know me I tend to drive half aggressive, and I got pulled over for speeding! I was doing 84 in a 60 (I was lucky I was able to jam my breaks on so he never fully clocked me). So the cop pulls me in, talks to me and I start to shoot the shit with the guy. Told him I just moved here from NF (like a week ago), that I was late for a meeting at work and joked about how lucky I was that he never clocked me 2 seconds earlier! Long story short he ended up letting me off with the speeding and wrote me up for not having proof of insurance on me, which is only a 65 dollar fine but I lose no points! That versus a 145 dollar ticket and 4 points??? Yeah, I got a great break! I don't know what I said but I was like a pig in shit all day because of that. Got pretty fucking lucky.
My words of wisdom today? I said this to my friend last night on the phone....Teaching alone should be enough inspiration to keep going! Fuck, that doesn't sound that wise and I think I got it wrong. Ahh well...you get the idea. I had a great laugh when I said it!
I'm off and up out!
