Night Is The Day Turned Inside Out
Everyone should listen to Beulah, they speak the truth.
I think I’m coming down with a cold. Scratchy throat, sneezing, general tiredness. Am I sick? Magic eight ball says… yes. Blaargh.

Radio Silence
Was actually panicked last night when my Hotmail account seemed to disappear. Attempts to login were met with a .Net error saying my account could not be found… It’s back now and yer damn skippy I’m saving out all my address book today! Stupid Microsoft.
Finally got to go in and tidy up the rehearsal space today. Tested out the new mic, it works fine but the mic clip it came with is utter trash. Will need a new one. Had an entertaining little band meeting at Sneaky Dee’s afterwards. Discussed plans for the upcoming ‘recording sessions’ as well as finally sketched out the website.
I don’t want to go to work today.

Ron Gone
Ron McClean has left the CBC. No more Hockey Night In Canada, Coaches Corner, Olympics…. this sucks.

You Can’t Beat That With A Stick
Great phrase. I will endeavour to use it as much in conversation as humanly possible.

Legal Man
Got an unexpected call this evening from Will, now located in the tropical hinterland of Saskatoon attending law school. Will hadn’t actually wanted to be a lawyer, this is the guy who finished his engineering law exam after 15 minutes not because he knew all the answers but because he knew that it was impossible to fail the course without setting fire to the professor’s suit whilst peeing on his shoes. And now he is in law school, hiding from the real world under the cover of academia for another few years. File under : irony.
Watched Robert Altman’s Gosford Park. Enjoyable ensemble period piece filled with fine actors with accents. Keeping up with all the plot threads wasn’t easy but I think I did pretty well. I caught all the main ones, anyway.
Folks on the FDP are chatting up Superdrag. I’m feeling impressionable, I should find some more of their stuff – I only have Regretfully Yours.
