Song of choice: You Shook Me All Night Long - ACDC
Are you ready for a near-orgasmic couple of paragraphs????
The Rolling Stones
ACDC
The Guess Who (BTO)
AND THE BLUES BROTHERS
OH MY @#&%(# GOD......
In case you live under a rock somewhere, or just dont have access to any form of media or public opinion/news, ALL of these groups (with a few others) are going to be performing at Downsview Park on July 30th, and on top of that, The Blues Brothers - that's right JAKE and ELWOOD BLUES - are going to be hosting it!!!! Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi!!!!!! Unfortunately the original Jake, John Belushi, will not be performing because, well, he's dead. So his brother, Jim, will be taking his place!
I've been havin' a friggin' FIT ever since I heard about this concert.. I mean, when I thought it was JUST going to be The Stones, I thought "yea!!" but when I heard about the lineup of other talent coming during Tuesdays Press Conference, my "yea!!" turned into a "HELL YEA, MOTHA F----!!!"
You have no idea how excited I am about this.. Sure, I was excited about the Concert for Toronto. It was a GREAT show!!!
But I have to admit, I'm a Rock and Roll guy at heart - Especially 80s rock! I mean, frig! ACDC was the ONLY CD I had in the car for like 6 months last year! it's STILL there!
*heavy breathing*
oh yea, I should mention.. Justin Timberlake is among those performing... meh, I'd go listen to Britney Spears on the same stage if it meant I got to hear ACDC, The Stones, The Guess Who, and The Blues Brothers!
Hell, I'd watch Grandma sit and do a crossword for 2 hrs on stage!!
omfg...
it's scheduled to be a 9+ hour concert... BUT it's in a FRIGGIN PARK - NOT a building venue - which means IT COULD GO ALL FRIGGIN NIGHT!!
they might just shake us all night long!!
*sigh*
*deep breath*
ok ok... my high is starting to............
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
sry.. now it's out of my system... I'm starting to come down from my high now..
ok..
inserting horizontal line here..
OK! so what have I been up to...
The last few days have held a remarkable turn around for me personally. I've come to terms with some things that I really needed to come to terms with, and I thank the person that made it so easy for me.
I also came to another really big conclusion this week, but that will have to wait until another post.. it isn't the time yet =P
anyway, all in all, I'm feeling really good... the smiles have returned to me... and I'm talking about the ones on the inside, not just the outside. =)
enough of that..
Work is keeping me busier than ever... I'm out on the job site all day now, which is starting to cook me up to a nice cherry red, but that's alright... I'm not hurtin' yet... so I'm not burned badly yet..
yes, I said yet..
I cost our company a few thousand dollars the other day.. and get this - nobody cares!
that gives you an idea on just how much it costs to build a road.
here's the deal - I'm only supposed to collect tickets from trucks coming in dropping material for the ROAD...
after, we review the tickets, find out how many loads and Tonnes there were.. that's how we find out how much to bill the contractor.
but I collected a bunch of tickets from trucks that were on the same job, but weren't working on the road, they were doing SEWERS...
I didn't know they were separate.... and the sewers are already paid for, there is no need for us to have the tickets.
but we do.. a few anyway, I got the majority of them cancelled...
so we gotta pay for the loads going to the sewers that were already paid for...
I got told today from one of our guys: "dont worry, we're not building a piano here. I fucked up once, but it was a mistake."
that was from Clive. 'nuff said.
anyway, this was just meant to be a short lil update.. so there u go.
ooo.. I like what blogger has done with itself... very slick.
for those of u who dont use blogger.com, I really dont understand why...
anyway....
Until next time.......
