you know what's totally my favourite thing about the internet?
< sarcasm >
...when you say your opinion and someone jumps down your throat about it.
it's happened to me twice in the last few days.
...and not that i don't a) deserve it and invite it sometimes... and b) totally expect it, because duh, it's the internet...
but god damn it's annoying sometimes.
because to be brutally honest, i like spouting my opinion on my spaces...
my blog, my twitter, my facebook... wherever i have *my* space.
but just because i give my opinion, doesn't really mean that you need to chime in with yours.
or do you?
i've been off the internet for a few days... maybe i forgot how it worked, lol.
in any event, i've been annoyed by having to defend myself and engage conversations that i don't really find to be worthwhile or worth bandwidth.
does that make sense?
meh. i'm probably just a massive hypocrite, aren't i?
but hey, aren't we all?
sooooo anyways...
let's see what's been going on, besides me picking fights and pissing off people inadvertently.
i went out on sunday night and had a great time with the twi-girls.
we had cheap dinner and delightful drinks and then rocked out at 100 monkeys.
it wasn't the best show i've seen of theirs... but it was alright.
a lot of my company, myself included was dead tired and not really feeling the show or the sunday night outing... so the vibe was pretty chill.
also, the band wasn't as tight as i've seen them in the past.
still pretty good... but you can tell the rock and roll lifestyle is taking its toll.
those dudes need to get their shit in order soon.
they're lacking proper management and promotion... and they're missing out on a lot of opportunities.
the whole twilight link thing isn't going to last forever.
they need to do a little promotion, try to get signed and properly represented...
ya, there's more i could say, but there's really no point.
it is what it is.
but this show had less than half as many people as their last show in vancouver about 5 months ago... so obviously they could have benefited from some promotion.
the band itself is pretty good. they're talented boys with some solid songs... but it's pretty evident they're also doing some solid partying on this tour.
and you know, it's definitely part of the rock star lifestyle... but maybe you should *actually* become stars before you do that.
...just sayin'
anyways, i know i said that i wouldn't let my blogging fall off the planet... and then i did...
ya, sorry about that.
this training for work is doing my head in.
i can not believe i'm only 3 days in.
my brain is quite literally swimming with codes and a million other things that i don't fully understand and most definitely can't explain.
the good news is that i'm one of the fastest in my class in terms of grasping and perfecting the knowledge...
so i'm pretty stoked on that.
but it's not easy.
i'm using brain cells i forgot i had.
i just have to survive 7 more days and then they let me loose.

Two things:
One, find an application for zee phone to let you blog on the train. Then you'll kill some birds while you're avoiding squelchy people's death breath.
Two, if it walks like a coked-up dood, and it rocks like a coked-up dood, it usually is. If it complains like an over-involved fan, it probably is, too. you and 'Manda didn't have anything to defend and the chick honestly was likely starry-eyed and would defend anything. Viva les Internet Crazies!

ha, I hear that. i wrote a blog earlier in the week, but then deleted it before posting b/c I didn't wanna deal. its easier to post about Haiti cuz no one reads those posts or comments. ha. (but seriously, I post a picture of my kid, tons of hits... haiti, or music and crickets).

sunday night was weird. i thought it was due to the hangover from hell, but the whole show seemed off. but like we said, at least there was SOME snow in vancouver! hahahaha
and to that chick who freaked out at you guys on twitter, she seriously needs to get a life! these guys are not rock stars, nor are they as innocent as she thinks they are.

I am apparently way behind but here's my two cents cuz well it's the internet and i put my two - ten cents wherever I can.... show wasn't as good, they're defo partying (hello dialated eyes, energy crash then all go off stage and return with more energy than they started with and as you noticed the friggin tie turned headband... universal symbol non?}
Anyways, rockstars party, it's not a big deal, but I agree, they shoudl get famous first ha ha or at least a cd that wasn't recorded in someones basement (not that good music can't come fom a basment, but... ya...)
haha internet bitches rule - they entertain me till i tell them to stfu
