I'm am Nutty, aren't I?

So, I'm back home in beautiful Viking Alberta, back from my 2 week vacation to the equally stunning Saskatoon saskatchewan. That being said however, I now just realize that I kind of took off without saying goodbye to everyone. I just kinda left. So..... I guess I'm kinda turning into a nutty professor type of character. just being all forgetful and absent minded. Maybe it adds to my mystic.... but it really doesn't... it adds to my weirdness. But it was a good time, hanging with the old gang, being somewhat bored like old times and drinking a rediculous amount of coffee.

what else do I have to say that is even somewhat interesting........ um..... our phone line is down at home, internet too, I'm using church property to write this blog... I wonder if that makes this blog holier than thou? I shouldn't wonder if it does.

- a story interlude

once upon a time there was a boy named george. He lived in a gorge, and ate a lot of porridge. but alas I do digress, as I tend to do in stories of woe such as this, for George was smote with coat worn by the goat at the moat where the boat used to float. Poor kid then hid in hut by the mutt to tergiversate the coat toteing goat. so if you happen to be a boy named george who eats porridge in your gorge, you must not associate with coated goats who stand by moats lest ye be smote by an afor mentioned coat. Man don't you hate evil goats who assail with coats?

Number Two!

Hey there my teaming mass of readers! Summer has finally drawn to a close and that means that our summer work has also. That is both good and bad news. Good news because hey, working sucks, but bad news because despite working for four month I have absolutly no money, I'm actually negative money. Which really sucks. enough sob story though.

anyhow, after we finished up work for the summer, I got a call from my brother who was in Seattle, he and my cousin were going to goto a music festival down there, which was cool. I really wanted to go too, so I did. Yup, I just drove to edmonton that night and took a plane at the crack of dawn to Seattle. Man I love being young and semi spontainious. The festival was called "Bumbershoot" which I believe is a british term for umberella. There were so many awesome bands. From major acts like AFI, Keane West and Yellowcard to great indie bands like Spoon, Feist, Of Montreal, CocoRosie, The New Pornographers (no they are not dirty), Metric, Mates of State, Rouge Wave, Matt Costa and so on. There were also comedy acts like David Cross and Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe from "24") and also there were art, poetry and film exhibits. It was a blast.

After that we drove up to Vancouver to find a place for me to live. We stayed at Jordie Rostie's house and the next day we set off to find a place. I must have phone like 20 houses and found about 3 that weren't sold, so I was super stressed. And at the first house I went to started viewing at 5, we got there at 5:10 and three people had already looked at the place. It was first damage deposit gets, so we ran across the street got money and that was that. I am now the proud renter of 1915 W. Broadway aprt 16.

So that is the major news as of late. I don't move out there till sometime mid october so for now I'm just chillin' in in rainy Saskatoon.

So till next time,
Peace out

Smell That?

Thats that new blog smell, not old, stale and musty like an old unused blog. Just crisp, clean and full of interesting possibilities. Heres hoping this one doesn't fall out of my routine as well. I have good intentions at least.

The purpose of this new blog is to chronicle my new and scary journey into the heart of Vancouver (the biggest city I will have ever lived in!) and to help me keep in touch with friends. God knows I am rather hit and miss with that, so hopefully this will help a little. It is a new blog for a new chapter in my life. Listen to me being all philosophical.



Lifes Road is Winding. get it? it's a metaphor.... it's not actually a road... thats dumb.

-----------Latest News---------

- Friday August 4th -Clint, Graham and myself are still working for ATCO Gas, moving gas meters from inside the outside of houses. We are presently enjoying a long weekend at the moment, which is why I have the time to create this blog.

- Friday July 7th - I was accepted into the Film Production program at the Vancouver Film School in Vancouver British Colombia. After all these years of thinking and talking about it I guess it's finally going to happen. Turned twenty.

--------------------------------

So thats all I got right now, hopefully I get some people intersted in hearing what I have to say. I guess I should come up with some interesting stuff to say as well. I'm warning you it could be random sometimes, but I'll try to post every once in a while.

So till next time peace out
