Wow, I have been away for far too long. I'm sure I wasn't missed too much. Things have been pretty calm on the home-front. After the holiday things calmed down to a pretty slow pace; pretty boring actually. We've been exploring our fine city from our new dwelling, located conveniently close to downtown. I did however get to see The Mullet a week ago. Always good to run into old friends.
I've picked up the guitar again for the first time in 6 years. I want to kick myself for getting away from it for that long. It's like I parted ways with my best friend then crossed paths with them again years later. I didn't appreciate the experience at the time but now that I'm back on board I can't believe I let it get away in the first place. Unfortunately I now have to relearn about 3/4 of the stuff I learned back in the day. I've picked up a few good blues licks this week though and I'm torturing Jenny with a couple of lead licks that I've been practicing every day.
I almost hate to admit it but I finally got run over by the Harry Potter bus. I had conveniently avoided the books and movies all these years until I got sick a couple of weekends ago. TNT had the first 3 films running on a marathon and since there was nothing else on at the time I took a gander. Now I'm hooked. Perhaps I'll even get to see the new one at the theater. I doubt it though. And speaking of movies, DO NOT watch "The Number 23" with Jim Carrey. If you feel the urge to do so have a friend or family member lock you in a dark room full of spiders and shards of broken glass for two hours. It will enrich your life much more than said movie.
Well, I guess that's enough for my boring life update. Hope things are going well out there in the land in which my friends dwell.
Oh yeah, one more thing. We went to a Whitecaps game with the Dornans and my sister recently and you'll never guess what happened.
WE CAUGHT MARIE LAUGHING!
I know, it's rare but it happened. You can see for yourself:

ok, we can stay friends, but i never want to hear movie advice from you again!!!
rie and i liked the Number 23.
p.s. the ringer was alot better than you said too. not saying it was great, but it wasn't the worst thing i've ever seen.
wow, you saw the ringer huh? i've heard there are places you can go to try and get back the iq points that bled out of your ears during the viewing of that piece of garbage
yeah, it's off of breton rd. i went there after i watched the Jerk. he he he :-)
that's the great thing about being friends is having differences......if we liked all the same things we'd be the same person and that's just trippy!!!
I LOVE HARRY POTTER
i love turtles.
