coray

I goto work (a two day gig on Hastings... Happy Honda to be exact, right by the comic book story), all is well, work is going fine, and then *CRASH*...

I look out to the road and what do I see... a motorbike (Suzuki SV650s for those who care) sliding down the road w/o its rider.... so I run out to the street and see the rider stuck under the back of a truck.

Two others had beaten there, and were working on him...so I promptly removed the bike from the road, and started directing traffic until the cops get there. I chat w/ them and that's that.... the bikers story goes like this....

the guy on the bike decided to pass a car on the right, but their was a parked car there, he fails to correct the mistake, hits the car he was trying to pass, goes down, and slides under the back of the parked car....all in all, minor injuries....... the end....

NO WAIT.... then an hour later it started to hail for 10min.... why did it do that??? who knows... it was a strange day....

I goto work early b/c the boss wanted to sleep in, and so he sent me ahead to get stuff done. I go there, sort everything out, blah blah blah... all in all, not important....

what IS important here is lunch, or the time we took off for lunch..... my co-worker and I left, got some food, we had time to kill until the boss decided to show, so we went to the comic book store...... oh dear god.... its been SOOOO long since I've stepped into one....

I walked in, and stopped......took a deep breath.........and........ *sigh* .......... I then spent the next hour finding out how far behind in my titles I am, and chatting w/ the comic book girl... and I've decided that I need a pt job in a comic book store... just weekends... I can sit and read, and do whatever it is that one must do in said occupation.....

then work... blah blah blah

after work, we go out to our friends place... so we go, and beer, and Rich comes out to get/save me, and beer, and ummm, wine, and ummmm more beer, and, ummmmm...

I wake up w/ a full can of beer in my pocket and somebody elses shirt one.... in time to get a phone call from my friend saying that he's on the mainland and coming over.... I promptly drink as much water humanly possible and have the longest/hottest shower I could.... the rest of this day was spent recovering and entertaining my buddy Liam (aka Kid Mantis from back in our days on the radio) and went to see Hot Fuzz (brilliant btw)....

Hanging out w/ Mantis, food, talk, relaxing day.... starting listening to the new Bjork album (Volta) b/c it was equated to NIN, in that its more industrial.... hmmm, verdict is still out on this one......
