I am glad it is the weekend. I finally have NOTHING to do this weekend. Relaxing at home sounds awesome!

Car finally paid off!! 2009 Pontiac G8 GT!! $726/mnth for 60 months...nice to have no payments. Just did some big services on it and put a Borla cat-back exhaust!

Fuel economy and the tree huggers be damned!!

6.0l V8. 380 hp(with exhaust) Built in Australia, and fun to drive in the snow.

I'm a bit of a tree hugger but not when it comes to cool cars!

Gratz!

My rejoice...

After years of hard work and so many ridiculous bureaucratic hoops and loopholes that they became a running joke, less than a week after officially getting a license to practice nursing in Canada, Kyoko landed the first job she applied to/interviewed for!!! It's with a great employer that was her first choice and even though they played no role in her actually getting the job, two of her friends and my sister all work for the same agency (different location though). There were a few times she considered giving up and really had to push and work hard to get past some of the shit that was thrown in her way so I can't even put words to how proud and inspired she's left me. Just lots of gratitude and admiration for me this past week!

WTG girlfriend!

We ended up leaving the Wintersun set at Metaldays because the power went out twice while they were trying to play

Rumor has it they will be playing at MetalDays 2014. It's just a rumor though.

Well, I've bought tickets for Wacken and Metaldays and I already asked for the vacations at work, so 2014 will kick ass.

New job is awesome so far and I am still able to take off the Friday for PP next month. Going to miss both shows on Thursday though, but thats fine. Myrath on Frirday will make up for it.

awesome about the job... and I'm definitely jealous about Myrath!

Nice rejoices all!

I'm rejoicing that in the next week & a half I'm seeing The Allman Brothers, Depeche Mode (which will complete another summer of "retro" gigs

) and Shakespeare's A Comedy of Errors. Summer is winding down (it has been a great one!), kids are back to school (both in high school now), and I'm now looking toward the fall and beyond - and what the coming months & year(s) have in store. (hmmm....here's hoping the Prog Nation at Sea cruise in February is part of that!)

After the trips to Copenhagen, Stockholm and Würzburg I've done eleven trips abroad this year. I'll probably go to Tallinn next week, so I'll average a trip a month. But I haven't got any plans for November or December yet!

I'm envious of the travel

I'm a year and a half off alcohol as of yesterday.

Wound up getting 12th place overall at the Canadian yoyo nationals this year. It's awesome cus I haven't even been top 20 in 3 years! Here's the vid of my prelim where I seeded 6th going into finals. (there were 4 seeded into finals from previous tournaments and I dropped 2 spots.)

And here's the final. I fucked up a little more here and ran out of tricks with about 25 seconds left so I just kinda fumbled through the rest of it. If I were as solid as I were in prelims I would've gotten 7th place I think.

Those of you that are too cool for facebook will have to wait until the offical vids are posted on youtube. (I don't have the video files)

I kinda figured out that energy drinks have been affecting my mood lately as I've been drinking more of them and I've been in worse moods lately. Apparently they can cause anxiety or something, so I decided I'd try going off them and I actually have noticed a difference. It's been over a week now since I've had one. Pretty minor rejoice but I felt like posting anyways. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I'm curious if maybe it's just a placebo effect or if they actually are mood altering.
