Wow! Two weeks I've been back at "home" in positively balmy Ottawa, and I've finally returned to my "real" home out here in Edmonton. It's good to be back - funny how your life sorta goes on hold when visiting family.

I hope everyone had a good christmas and new years - mine were both suuuuuper laid back. I got to see loads of friends...

Happy New Year James!!
So your having a get together this evening eh? To bad I got beyond drunk last night. I wasn't planning on drinking, but then one mini-jug of rum and coke later I decided to have another... I feel like poop today. Shwaun was creepy last night, and I am pretty pissed off at him right now. He was going around and grabbing a bunch of guys 'tits' from behind, which was fine... but then he did it to me. I was like WTF!!! so not acceptable. I feel violated. [member name= Olver] had just left to so I didn't have him there to get mad at him. Due to his creepiness last night Walter and I walked Bronwyn home so he wouldn't go creepy on her (she was super duper drunk) and then Walter walked me home. It was kinda funny when he tried to drop walter off and said he would get me and Bronwyn home... We were all like no! I told him Walter and I have a deal that he gets me home even though I live further away, which is sorta true, kinda unspoken usually, but last night there was no way I was letting Walter NOT walk me home. Ahh, so that is my rant of the day. I think I am going to tell Shwaun now that I am sober how unacceptable that was, and how upset it made me. I kinda feel like a tool for getting upset over it, but I am upset so I guess I should deal with it right?

In happier thoughts, I heard last night that you are coming to roundup?!? Me too!! When are you flying there and where are you staying? and when are you flying back?
Let me know, so we can hang out and stuff. Hope to see you around soon. I only have class tues/thurs but i should be around as I have TONS of work to do on my thesis.

Well! I've had some requests for an update over here (Tink - ahem), so I guess I should get around to it. I tried to do one two weeks ago after I saw Fear Factory in concert, but I never got around to it. Mannnnn FF were so good, it was amazing. What a great show. I also was totally into Decapitated, whom I...

Tonight I went out with Tink and Olver with some of the other geo peoples for some tasty beers at a place we call RATT (room at the top - it's a student union type place), it was good times and something a little different from what I usually do on a Friday.


Sounds like it was a good time, but you should have looked for us at the Plant. People were wonderin' where you were.

Funny how christmas changes from when you live at home to when it becomes a time to meet up with good friends and spend time with family.


yeah, Christmas for me has become all about the three F's: food, family and fire water! ...ensued by family fighting tongue . Have a good time back in O-town! See you when you get back. We'll be sure to get Friday right next time.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!!!!! kiss

Yooooo everybody!

I think I'm getting the hang of this whole "being back in the city" thing. I've been back for three weeks as of today, and in the last week alone I got to see two great shows! The first was Moses Mayes last Saturday, and then yesterday it was Ghosts of Modern Man with Antic opening. Antic were awesome - they're super-tight and...

Well, this may be a little pre-emptive, but I'm BACK! I get back to civilization on Sunday, after spending basically the beginning of June through the end of October in the middle of nowhere in northwestern BC. I had a 3-week break in September where I headed back Ottawa for weddings and such, and spent some small time at home in Edmonton.

It was a...

Hey you wanna know where the name "Jennie Bomb" came from? I didn't make it up! There's this all female rock/punk band from Sweden called Sahara Hotnights and they have an album called Jennie Bomb.... I thought it was sweet (and the band is sweet too) so I use that name. Maybe see ya at a show sometime?

Well! So! It's off to the field with me! I just found out on Sunday that I leave for almost three months on Friday. I'm going to be working in the same area I worked last year, up in northwestern British Columbia. The field area is a long way from nothing - it's only accessible by air, and it's a 1-hour flight from the nearest...

So, I know nobody reads this, but I find some sort of perverse enjoyment in posting shit about my life up here. I don't understand why... probably some attention-mongering or something.

Anyways, it was a crazy week - two wicked concerts: The (International) Noise Conspiracy (saw 'em at the Starlite Room) was UNBELIEVABLE - they're in my top 3 live shows now... they just played...

Thanks for the compliment on the tatt! Glen from New Moon Tattoo (East) did it for me last December. And I actually read today on a description of PTH that they basically wrote a record they couldn't play and learned to play it afterwards, hahahah. It sucks that they're not tight. TFD are tight on the record AND live! That's all Protest The Hero really need. Apparently they got signed to Vagrant for release in the US though, which is rpetty coo.

thanks so so much for the comment on my debut set!! kiss

Yooooooooo.

Finally got around to putting up some public profile "thingie". So here it is. Yay! I'm sure everyone is sooooo glad.

It probably has something to do with it being 6:15am, and I just got back from a night of drinking with a bunch of geo friends. (that is geologists and related peeps). No pics. I'll figure out how to work this shiz at...
