Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes

Yeesh

I'm running kinda late on time here, but I desperately need to contact my faithful minions.

Sunday afternoon straight to Wednesday night was work. Just work. Some half hour breaks, but mainly work. the sad thing is, I didn't even get ahead on my work like I intended, but at least I didn't get behind.

I went to see Thornley last night. The opening badn, Oliver Black, was pretty good for a rock band, but all rock music sounds the same to me. They did a really good Whole Lotta Love cover, and the guitarist ripped out some amazing solos. We got there at about 8:40, and the first band didn't play until 10:30. Only one opening band, too. $18 doesn't get you much.

Thornley came out, and the place went pretty crazy. I like smaller bands where people don't scream if the singer says anything at all. Like, when DBS plays (they're playing on the 27th!), it's like the band is just there to have fun, no girls screaming cause he's sooooo dreamy. Anyways, Thornley played a few Big Wreck songs, to be expected, and most of the stuff they played sounded a lot like right off the cd, which is both good and bad. When you hear something live, you really want something that is a lot different then what you hear all the time for much less money at home. At least I got out.

Today, my econ midterm was much more brutal than the last one. With about 15 seconds remaining, I noticed I mixed up two variables in the first part of a question, which fucks everything else up for the rest of the question. Plus, I was doing it on less sleep than usual, since I didn't get to bed until almost 3 AM because of the concert.

Well, due to recent circumstances, this last week goes down in my books as a terrible week. I was supposed to go to Mississauga and get some Red Lobster, but lo and behold, the plans fell through at the last minute. Giving up snow crab for leftover pork and potatoes is no fun at all. Well...on the bright side I get to play poker tonight, but I'd rather have hungout with the N-crew.

Well...it looks like I'm working on my own game design. I think I could get most of the mechanics coding done by the end of summer, depending on how long my burst of dedication goes on. I think that by the time I'm done universtiy though, I might have a project that I can call my very own. Mind you, after doing all that work, I'll be utterly sick of video games.

Well, that's all I need to say.

Link of the moment... RIP Patricia Vepari - I didn't know you, but you'll be missed all the same
