Well everyone, I have just returned from the scene of the crime, AKA, Work. Turns out that last night at about 1 AM some guy with a knife decided that he needed the money in the store more than we did, so he of course acted on this. I kinda figured we would get robbed at one point, im just glad I wasn't at work when we did. Good news is that the people who were working that night are fine, the idiot didn't hurt either one of them, which is all that really matters. Of course we had customers doing the whole "im a tough guy I would have kicked the guy's butt and not given him anything" act, but I find that pitiful,,,cause unless you know what its like, you wont be able to say what you would do. The funniest comment about it though was a guy who said "We need to be packin` a glock up undauntedly hea" (and I spelled it they way he said it). I couldn't help but laugh at that comment.

Moving on, im really leaning towards going back to school at this point, I need to get the ball rolling though, and of course my own insecurities of "what if" are still keeping me from doing so, but for whatever its worth, I think im a bit closer now,,,(got, I wish I could just do what I say I want to do without arguing with myself 24/7)

I picked up the pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack and to my dismay I have to return it for one that doesn't freeking skip like crazy!

God is now apparently a professional wrestler

I forgot how much a long level headed talk does for me sometimes,,,

The Island was a good movie

Once again I worked with Chris and of course the single topic of conversation was why Adam needs a girlfriend. (looking back at other posts,,,,anyone else seeing a pattern)

My dog has no bones in her neck,,,I swear

So yeah, anyone not get my title?! I was thinking, 20 years = a score right? SSSOOO, does that mean that everyone SCORES on their 20th Birthday!?

Well I think im gonna go up to the big nest in the middle of my room,,,,gotta work 1-6 tomorrow,,,strange shift, I know,,,but hey,,,

And for those of you who are gonna go nuts cause I work 3rd shift and we just got held up at the time im usually at work, for the next month we are gonna have an armed security guy at the store,,,

I get to go to the gig on Friday! And I must say that I would LOVE to have Mr. Myers play Bass Drum on the thing we are doing on Frog In The Well,,,nothing against Mrs. Myers of course, but it sounds so freeking awesome when it is played properly. HORRAY FOR BIG SNARE DRUM SOLOS! (hehe)

Well I am off to bed to dream about stuff,,,last nights dreams kept having something to do with our cottage,,,,dunno why

Cheers!

Figired ide wish everyone a happy easter!
