Hmmmm?Lets see...

Since we last talked my hockey team were quickly knocked out of the play offs, I went to the great city of Glasgow,and Ryan showed us a unbelievable time.I enjoyed a cold Moosehead,saw my hero Buck 65,met him,briefly chatted to him,got his autograph,took a picture with him and awkwardly shook his hand.We caught up with the lovely Evonne again, I dined on delicious chocolate enchiladas. Bought some great cds,fought a hard battle on the foozeball table,fought a more successful battle on the pool table(me and Ryan spared some old guys the humiliation of losing by leaving after our game).I ate a lot of curry and chips.We got a serious dance on,in many different bars and clubs,including an accidental visit to a gay club.I acquired very very little sleep.I've grown even more weary of my three jobs, I become even more confident no one actually reads this tripe. I heard the new hot chip album and its friggin fantastic.I've finally started writing in the beautiful journal my wonderful grandmother got me for Christmas,and I have to say I feel better for doing so. I saw many beautiful pictures of my new beautiful cousin Jessica. The hospital picture is especially beautiful with her little fists curled into tight little balls and her eyes squinted,staring strait at you as if to say "go ahead punk,and see what happens." Oh yeah,and I turned twenty-seven.Its been ten years since I was seventeen and I'm not afraid to say that freaks me out just a little bit. I have only one question?At some point will I actually start feeling like an adult?Does that ever really happen? When I was younger I always thought one day I would be one of the grown ups. Like it was something you just sort of turned into. Evidently I was wrong. Cause I don't feel much different now then I did when I was sixteen. Well,my music knowledge has grown and matured splendidly and I've seen some places and I'm much more stylish and attractive but thats about it. I still feel lost.Oh and its been raining for the last three days.I think thats about it.

Glasgow pics will be on here soon.

Bucks new album Strong arm is incredible.

Tom Waits album Real Gone is incredible.

Holyfucks selftitled album is crazy and incredible.

And finally I wish I could sit down with each of you in a nice dimly lit bar and catch up with a few drinks.Then maybe we'd head out to somewhere with a dancefloor and lose ourselves. Afterwards maybe we'd stop off for a curry and chips.That sounds nice.

A cruel twist of fate!

Up 2-0 on the Carolina Hurricanes, and the backbone of the Montreal Canadians,Saku Koivu, catches a high stick in the eye and is now out indefinately! Whats worse,as an extra kick in the groin,the referee called no penalty on the play! A blatant high stick in the face,Koivu is helped off the ice with blood streaming down his face and the ref says oh sorry,didn't see that one. Give me strength!!!!For the last week they've been calling penalties everytime a players stick makes contact with another players stick,but on this occasion...nothing.
Then in overtime the Canadians get called on a weak holding penalty,and the Hurricanes score the winning goal on the powerplay.
All this coupled with the recent injury of the habs top defenceman Sheldon Souray! Man alive,nothing like a little adversity to overcome!
Vive les habitants!

Oh,yeah,Canada's prodigal son(thats me!hahaha!)returns to the t-dot June 23rd til July 4th! So clear your schedules and prepare yourselves!

Who's the a!!hole that writes this thing?

Man alive, does anybody even read this thing anymore? I read this and all I can think is what a pompous,pretentious,a**hole.Trying to force his opinions on the rest of the world. Get with it you unoriginal jack ass.
By the way,my links section is swelling like a bloated spiders egg about to spew forth a million little creepy crawlies. There's some good stuff in there you should check out. Lots of great canadian artists.
I'm especially digging Pony up! A great all girl band hailing from the hockey epicentre of Canada(Montreal).
Speaking of which,my condolences Toronto,I was looking forward to the possibility of a Montreal v Toronto best of seven,my condolences also to Pat Quinn but I think that decision was a long time coming.
Vive les habitants!!!!! I feel confident we can beat Carolina. I'll be cheering for Edmonton and Calgary as well.

If anyones still reading this sewage drain of a blog,I'll talk to you fine upstanding people later:)
