Well another week has passed. A few things of interest happened. Work at Essies was ok. Me and Lisa butted heads but if it happens again I'll tell her where to go and how to get there. I almost feel sorry for her. She's so arrogant and will die a miserable old hag. :) Tuesday I shot my first 40 in pool league. Felt good. Got a few breaks but overall shot really good. And then off to work on Tuesday night. Since Wednesday was Rememberence Day, and most people didn't have class or work the next day, they came out to party. Studio was decent, not overly busy but comfortable and the crowd that we had, danced a lot, which was nice. I heard Scores was packed and stupid which I guess was good as well.

Thursday was a great day. Went to the KISS concert with Erin Ko. She drove up and I drove back. Got into Calgary around 4:30 PM or so and headed to Joey Tomatoe's in Eau Claire Square. A usual place for me to dine at when I go to Calgary and Erin hadn't been. I had a blackened fish and glass of wine and she had a tuna salad, and we both had Chinese wraps for an appetizer. Fantastic everything from the waiter to the meal to the atmosphere. Including the very sexy hostess. 6'2'' modelesque brunette.

Then off to the concert we went. Met up with Kerry and Aaron at the lounge downstairs before hand then we headed up. Waited in line for merchandise and practically missed all of Buckcherry, but did end up catching their last song. Meh, average performance I guess. Bit of an intermission then KISS came on. Showtime started at 9 and was over at 11 PM. True performers. Incredible show, with pyrotechnics, smoke, lights and a few surprises. Gene Simmons getting hoisted up to the light truss, Paul Stanley getting zip lined to the other side of the Saddledome by the sound stage. And the big finale of them getting hoisted up on hydraulic lifts above the stage. Truly a great show I'm glad I went to. We drove back and got back into town around 2 AM.

Saturday at Studio was our Graffiti Party. First 100 people or so through the front door got white Studio 54 drinking team shirts and a sharpie and they could sign each other. Great promotion and hope we do it again. Really good crowd and they danced it up.

Saturday was my friend Ryan's wedding. Day started at 8:30 AM. Ugh, early morning....how I loathe you !! Went for breakfast with all the guys of the wedding party, so Ryan, me, Ryan's brother, the best man Spencer, and Ryan's dad. After a hearty breakfast, we went to the hall to set up and move the booze. It didn't take too long and we were all home by a reasonable time. I even grabbed a an extra hour of sleep too :)

So made my way back at 2 PM as the ceremony part was at 2:30. Spencer still hadn't arrived but all the others were there. Found out later that he forgot the ring in his coat pocket that he wore the day before. He didn't put it in his suit jacket. DOH !! He made it back around 2:35 so it was decently later. Amber was getting a bit impatient, LOL.

Ceremony was wham bam and done within about 15 min. We left the hall and went for pictures at the Lethbridge Lodge. Were there for close to 2 hours and then back at the downstairs of the Keg for the supper and reception. The place looked phenomenal. And the food was divine. Hands down to the Country kitcken catering for making it a great night. I had a few drinks and overall a good time. Congrats Ryan and Amber.

Relaxed on Sunday and back to the grind on Monday.

So I haven't logged in quite some time. Been busy with the move and work and such. All finished now just settling in. My whole freakin' sleep schedule has been flipped upside down, but sort of decent waking up earlier and going to bed at a reasonable time as well.

Hallowe'en was smokin' busy. No real problems except for a small fight earlier, but some of the costumes were great. Best male was a guy dressed up as Wall-E, best female was the orange Monarch buttefly, and best group went to the Sesame Street crew, although Dog the Bounty Hunter and wife (my friends Aiden and Crystal) looked great and could have won as well.

My friend Ryan's wedding this weekend. I actually don't have to dj at it. Should be a good one. Can't remember last wedding I attended or participated in , where I didn't dj for it. And I hope that Ryan doesn't think I will either, because I'm not :)

Can't get a hold of Brad. Stupid damage that he caused at the old place, gonna cost a pretty penny to fix. He needs to compensate me....

And finally what is with people that screw me over trying to be my friend. Got a request from DJ Otto, the yahoo that took my job at Blarney, to be my friend on Facebook. Now why would I do that?? You took my job jackass ~! Or like Lee Ford asking me to join his Facebook group. Um, you still owe me money loserboy. Now, pardon the pun, fuck off!!!
