Waiting...patiently



While I await the closing day on the sale of our house I am a little at a loss for writing.
You see I really need to get down on here a situation SO unreal that I still don't believe it, but I do not want to jinx the house sale and therefore I am forced to wait just a little longer to get down my (now unscrambled) thoughts on the matter.
That said moving day is coming ever closer and I am still not particularly organized.
For the past 5 weeks or so life has moved at lightning speed.


Shakka has been in rehearsals for the production of 'Petcudiac' (which is being performed on Saturday June 6th at The Capitol Theatre, Moncton) at least 3 nights a week and 5 this week!
Tattoo Man has been working ridiculously long hours(and that is NO joke...I'm talking upwards of 15 a day here people) and I have been dealing with financial, removal, theatrical and educational matters on a whole different level than the norm!
Tattoo Man also spent the day in a recording studio two weekends ago and the result was 11 of his song's (YES the man is multi talented) finally down on CD. OK there is tweaking needs to be done, but the overall result was pretty damned fabulous!

A holiday is really needed by all at this point, but there is no time! Tattoo Man has actually booked a week off work for the first time in 4 years. Needless to say at least one of those days is already planned out by the arrival of AC/DC, playing their ONLY outdoor gig in North America on their Black Ice tour.
Mentally, I have already moved into our new home and am planning out a few changes here and there, so I am really no longer interested in the house we currently live in.
School is almost at an end for another year at which point 11 weeks of "when do we go back to school" and "I'm really bored" start a repetitive cycle.. enough to drive even a totally sane person gaga. I am of course half cooked to begin with so what frigging chance do I have?


I want to say that during this mayhem I managed to get a hall pass to attend a gig at Moncton Coliseum on Friday. Disturbed were the headlining band, but I only saw them perform two songs and they really don't do it for me.
However...Art of Dying, from Vancouver (the band featured in my previous blog) were there to open the show.

They kicked serious ass.
Not only are they great live, but they are also a great bunch of guys who really deserve to be headlining their own tour.
Here's a little pic of me with vocalist and writer Jonny Hetherington!!
OK, enough of the free blog publicity!








SO....with everything being so breakneck right now, blogging is on the back burner until we are moved into our 'new' abode.
I'm under no illusion that there will be happenings that will be cause for blogging at a later date. Nothing EVER runs smoothly during a house move, but until that time I shall take the time out to concentrate on the matters in hand...all 45 of them!!
